Re: Do you always shoot weddings at 1080P/24p?

We always shoot at 1080P/24p for weddings. We use MPEG Streamclip to convert the files and we do edit in HD. Not all of our couples are choosing Blu-Ray delivery, so for those that don't we simply...

Re: Wedding Videography Studio at home office?

Victor, you can certainly do well with running a studio out of your home. We ran our studio out of our home for about 8 years before relocating to Miami and opening a studio space separate from our...

Re: Slider recommendations - for DSLR weddings

Atlas 10 from Cinevate. I had a Glidetrack for a long time and it did the job more or less, but it also had issues. The new hybrid might solve some of those issues, but for me, I was ready for a...

Re: Help, I'm Drowning... In DSLR

Claire, for the life of me I can't grasp what the purpose of your post was. It seems to be a bit of a rant against DSLRs or the people who use them, but the whole post is so ambiguous and scattered...

Oren | I do often hire other shooters when shooting destination weddings.

Stelios | I can't honestly say where DSLR technology is going to go. I actually thought by now they would have merged the...

I'd be careful basing your decision to purchase a slider on using it for a significant amount of footage. Nothing reduces the impact of slider shots more than overuse of the tool. It's like...

That's part of the beauty of the lens. You don't have to be so close to people when you're filming them. When people don't know they are being filmed you get more authentic footage. We use...

I agree that the 70-200 is a heavier lens, but it can also go wider than the 85 .. or much closer. So to me, it's a much more versatile lens for a live event situation. Use what you like, though I...

Michael, maybe I'm misunderstanding you, but the 70-200 already covers the 85mm range, so I don't see why using a 70-200 would be an issue. If you end up in a situation where you need the 85mm...
