Re: Merlin settings with GH2 & 12-35mm f/2.8

I just exchanged the starter weight with a mid-weight, and it seemed to have worked!

Merlin settings with GH2 & 12-35mm f/2.8

I need to use my Merlin tomorrow with my new lens, but could use some help with settings. Thanks!

Re: Candid filming in dark venues - to light or not?

Dave, what kind of stands do you put them on?

Re: GH2 firmware update

Jeff, I'm surprised you haven't updated considering you don't like 24p. For me the 30p setting is a must for certain shoots. I never use 720p60 unless doing slow-mo, which is rare.

Panasonic, get your act together!

My 12-35mm f/2.8 order from Factory Outlet just got canceled. I heard Amazon and B&H have canceled everyone's orders, as well. You would think Panasonic would have learned from the GH2 fiasco. I...

Re: Steadicam owners, what lens do you fly?

I'm with Dave. As soon as I get the 12-35 that's what I'll be using.

Re: UPS says my GH2 is "out for delivery"

I have 4 Lumix batteries, and don't find them to take very long to charge at all. Especially not compared to my Canon camcorder's 7/12 hour batteries.

Re: Cine Accessories for GH2? Suggestions?

One thing I wouldn't do is get cheap stuff. There's an old saying, "buy cheap, buy twice". When I first started I made a DIY dolly/track, boom pole, and steadicam. I also borrowed someone cheaply...

Re: Cine Accessories for GH2? Suggestions?

I agree with you, Angelo, but I think the phrase, "I'm finding my results are hit & miss and that fundamentally people must be doing something different to get such high quality out of their GH2." ...

Re: Cine Accessories for GH2? Suggestions?

I, too, agree. The most important element is contrast. When you watch a film or TV drama you see carefully orchestrated ratios of light to shadow, focus to blur, far to near distance, opposing...

Re: I was totally wrong about ETC Mode!

You must not do much live event shooting. In a comedy club there is a spotlight on the performer. The audience is mostly pitch black other than the first few tables which get some light bounce from...

Re: I was totally wrong about ETC Mode!

I wouldn't say those two lenses would cover most shooting situations. In low light f/2.8 isn't very good. I was shooting audience reaction shots at the comedy club with the Voigtlander at f/0.95...

Re: I was totally wrong about ETC Mode!

Yes, I agree 100%. One other great advantage of ETC is that you can use wider lenses that act like longer lenses without the added instability.

I was totally wrong about ETC Mode!

Sunday Night I did my first shoot where I used two GH2's (just picked up a second one recently) at a comedy show in Ft. Lauderdale. I put my Canon FDn 100mm f/2.8 on my wide camera, and quickly...

Re: X Vario 12-35 + GH2: first impressions

I ordered one yesterday =) As far as the 35-100, have you considered using the 12-35 in ETC mode, which would give you a similar range? Personally I don't like ETC because it loses sharpness, but...

Re: Which external monitor?

Les, it seems the handle that attaches at the bottom would prevent me from then mounting the camera onto my shoulder rig. Also, if the lcd has to be open to attach it then regardless of straight rig...

Re: Which external monitor?

The thing is I have a straight rig from Jag35. I'm wondering if I should just alter it to an offset rig and use the GH2's lcd for monitoring.

I don't like it. The colors are awful and nowhere near close to what's being...
