Re: Why weddings?
It's a great way to do video and be a school teacher at the same time. :)

Re: Recruiting random guests as camera operators
Here, here.
I can't say I'm an old-timer (10 years in biz), and I do use an occasional slider shot, but I'm all for the natural motions (in more abundance than seems the trend nowadays). I feel...

Re: C100 - grading Cine Log (sample & advice)
Thanks much Richard!
Recorded just with the camera's internal codec (and the Vimeo isn't even the original 1080 file -- I didn't bother, because its intended use doesn't mandate that).
Anyway: ...

Re: C100 LCD Color Matching
Yes, Matt, I agree that my last paragraph was ambiguous.
That was to say: "cool" in the "blue/white-balance" sense. The LCD screen would have me think that I should be at, say, 3900 or 4000k...

Re: crap venue lighting
Hi Paul and company,
That flicker reducer really looks like a God-send. Nice work.
But I'd still stick with my comment about a little fill light. I know it's a matter of taste. But I still...

Re: C100 LCD Color Matching
I concur that the white balance is about 500k warmer in the LCD.
I've also found that the XF300 can tend to look warmer in the LCD, but not THAT much warmer.
I've found I need to trust my...

Re: crap venue lighting
I know what you mean. But, again, when used only dimly/as needed, the on-cam LED is there purely to fill in faces (not for deer-in-headlights look). I find that with great low-light cams like a...

Re: crap venue lighting
Paul -
I'm sure we're all bound to face that kind of thing (sorry you have to go through it!).
I found the flickering most noticeable in the party/dance portion of the footage. What if you...

Re: Wedding Cost up for 2012
That average probably has a lot more to do with thousands of videographers being around and below that -- and a (relative) few being in the $4000+ category. That would be my guess, at least, if...

Re: talk me out of it.
There's no question that you'll occasionally see those jagged edges (especially on really red things that are contrasted with their backgrounds when using internal codec when blown up). I noticed it...

C100 - grading Cine Log (sample & advice)
Hello all,
I'm loving the capabilities of the C100. Have just done my first short piece in Cine Log and am thrilled with its dynamic range (especially in the kind of lighting you see here). I'd...

Re: the grip hand strap. do you use it?
On the other hand, how many of you (former/current DSLR users) can't seem to get the thumb to stop wanting to press record? The T3i, for example, has its video/record button exactly where the C100's...

Re: C100: adjusting ISO \ Gain with the joystick
Good question. I so often need to tweak the WB that I prefer it to remain an option in the joystick.
Just curious, why 1/30 as opposed to 1/60 at 30p?
I, too, lock down my shutter speed. But,...
