Re: Canon XF300 real life field experiences
I have built my DSLR shoulder rig to also accept the XF300. Works like a charm as it's all Manfrotto QR plates.
I have also just pinned the 300 against my chest and used the image stabiliser which...

Re: How to batch transcode C300 footage?
Are you in CS6? Worked great for me for 3 sep shoots I did last week.

Re: How to batch transcode C300 footage?
If you're on a Mac, just type in the finder search window .mxf and point it to the contents folder. Then drag the clips to AME and you're set. Basic OS search.

Ya beat me to it Eric! Yup.. At 30p 1/60 shutter is 180deg.
And 4:2:2 makes a HUGE difference from 4:2:0. Ive only keyed 4:4:4 footage once. By far the best solution but the camera system (sony...
