Re: Cannot access menu
So Allan, you're saying that when you press the menu button, you do not see the menu appear in the LCD viewfinder, is that correct? And this is with both cameras?

Re: Which Digital Camera is in Your Pocket?
I don't understand why you'd want manual focus in video mode on a tiny
little pocket digicam like this. The whole point of a camera like the S100
(or S95 or S90) is the simplicity and ease with...

Re: Reasons to go for C300 over RED Scarlet X?
Sorry but no, that is not accurate. It impersonates a 3-chip design.
A three-chip camcorder samples green the same way as the C300 does. In a three-chip prism block, 25% of the incoming light goes...

Re: Reasons to go for C300 over RED Scarlet X?
Actually there's a lot of sample material readily available. Scarlet output = Epic output, and there are plenty of Epic clips online coming from a wide variety of sources. The only differences...

Re: Reasons to go for C300 over RED Scarlet X?
Actually it's the other way around... RED shooters don't tend to spend time on DV Info, therefore there's no RED forum here. All of the RED shooters are on reduser.net where they rightfully belong....

Re: C300 Discussion
My understanding was that Epic output = Scarlet output, and therefore existing, readily available Epic clips = what Scarlet can do (minus the obvious differences in frame rate, 5k video, window size...

Re: Reasons to go for C300 over RED Scarlet X?
Yes.
What is your criteria for "bombing," specifically? And how exactly do you arrive at
whatever number of unit sales you think it needs to reach in order to avoid that?
Canon tends to...

Re: Does Canon ever talk to their customers?
I don't understand what you mean by "Canon's vast over-reaching marketing spin." Canon has not yet begun to market this camera. And it's going to be a fairly hard-to-get item, considering that only...

Of course not, it doesn't work that way at all, but I think you already knew that.
Since it's recording the Canon XF codec, the list of approved CF cards is exactly
the same as the one that...

Re: Xha1 1920x1080?
Hi Maurice,
The XH series cameras record HDV while the XA10 records AVCHD. You have to take into account that HDV and AVCHD are two completely different codecs. You just can't make a 1:1...

Re: Xha1 1920x1080?
FireWire output is indeed compressed. You get 25Mbps HDV 1440x1080 from FireWire.
On the A1 / A1S sister camera, that is the XH G1 or XH G1S, you have uncompressed output over SDI.

Re: Does Canon ever talk to their customers?
No need for a global shutter when you can do a relatively artifact-free rolling shutter.
While you can't expect to cleanly swish-pan the C300, the filmmakers who have used it have said that they...

Re: C300 and still lenses compatibility
The answer is yes, the C300 is compatible with EF-S lenses, and there's even the little white square EF-S mounting guide on the face of the EF lens mount.
See attached pic -- hope this helps,
