I don't do a shoot without them! The minus green is definitely useful in those high fluorescent scenes. The 1/2 is probably the most used card, though. I tend to think the 1, 2 and 3 are just too...

Don't we all? :)

I don't have the 200, I have the 100. But, it does do 24P of course, and I can tell you that I use it a fair bit. I shoot 24 when I'm trying to get closer to a film look. ...

Not better quality, necessarily, but a better codec. You'd need a way to digitize HDMI, which requires additional hardware, but it's inexpensive as video gear goes. BlackMagic makes the Intensity,...
