Hi Ales. I don't understand why you would want to hook up an LCD TV if you are not viewing HD. Not much point really. But if you are not trying to check the video final output quality then you might...

Hi Jason. A bare XH-A1 will work on the Merlin but it is near the limit for balancing and is a bit heavy for prolonged usage handheld. I doubt if you will be able to balance it with a lot of...

Hi Daniel. If you are constantly zooming in and out (hope this is for framing purposes ha ha) then you would miss the zoom range of the XH-A1 and would be forever having to change lenses. Probably...

If you are running the cam for the whole day (not including evening), you would need the original battery plus 1 or 2 BP-970, and of course, 1 spare! Variables are how much you use the LCD panel, how...

I tried converting 60p to 24p with Procoder, but it doesn't produce a slomo effect at all, it just resamples the frame rate and makes a 24p clip of the same duration (and speed) as the 60p original....

It is difficult to judge image quality on the viewfinder or LCD panel, you really need to display on something larger.

In any case, the amount of MB will depend on the amount of movement in the...

Hi Kelvin. I wouldn't go below 1/30s (or 1/25s in PAL countries). Even at that speed there will be motion blur, but the slower you go the worse it gets.

On second thoughts I'm not so sure that Procoder/Express would work. The files I have converted in Procoder the past were 5D2 at 30fps and I didn't need to change the frame rate. Procoder will adjust...

Hi Craig. I have Procoder, not Express, but I don't see any reason why Express watch folders wouldn't work for this. Procoder 3 can convert the AVCHD files no problem so I assume Express can too.

Hi Chris. The reason for rendering the clip out at the target frame rate is to make it easier to work with if further editing is required. Editing native AVCHD from Canon DSLRs is no fun. As I...

Hi Keegan. 1/50 shutter will give more motion blur, which doesn't look good to me for slomo playback of sports action. I much prefer a faster shutter which produces sharper images. If it happened to...

Hi Keegan. Never shoot 24p if you are going to slow down that footage. As you have seen, the results are not ideal.
