fixed the clunk

[Kevin Lee]

I figured out a way to fix that annoying clunk in my DVX

Do not try this at home!! Professional fix only

[Terry_Lasater]

Yeah, I'm thinking about sending my camera in for that modification. Does it effect DOF?

[Brandon Rice]

How is the "noise" level after getting it fixed?

[TC]

That's just about the smartest mod I've seen for the DVX. You need to start selling it for way too much money. Then 3 people need to post their own configurations in the DIY section, and then 5,000 people need to ask if they will be selling them, and for how much.

[Daniel Skubal]

Do you need rails for that thing? It looks like there's a lot of abberation.

[Blaine]

I heard that after you get the "clunk" fixed, you can't output through the firewire...:shocked:

And what's the fucking deal with all that noise anyway?

You can if you add nylon washers!

[imgentertainment@mac]

Dose it come with the nutt or do you have an ebay page where I can get one?

[Blaine]

You can if you add nylon washers!
Of course, nylon washers, why didn't I think of that...:Drogar-BigGrin(DBG)...but it still doesn't address the noise issue...

[TC]

Yeah dude, what the hell is going on with the noise issue?

This seems shady, he didn't even post any footage or anything. DON'T GIVE THIS GUY ANY MONEY UNTIL WE KNOW HE'S LEGIT!

[TimurCivan]

is it a vibrating declunker?

[Brandon Rice]

No I think it's static. It does have a diffuser though.

[mikkowilson]

Oh that's awsome! I'm going to bolt out and get one right now.

[Thomas J. O'Hara]

don't worry guys...I've worked with him and he's totally legit...give him all your money...Kdawg...my cut is at least 30% remember?

[FilmMakerr]

looks photoshopped, lol.

[HorseFilms]

looks photoshopped, lol.

Are you calling him a liar?:furious3:

[Kevin Lee]

Tom you shall recieve your cut (hopefully these suckers pay up front)

Well, I wish I had a place to host some footage I would show you all a DIY. But to keep my sales up I will not tell you where I purchaced a high quality, non-noise causing, un-vignetting, ultra diffused, titanium, clunk reduction bolt.

The footage is awsome... just some fixing in post, and your good to go.

I uploaded a frame from my footage. I was filming TJ ohara's pet the other day.

Almost cant even tell.

Pre-order yours today!!

[TC]

Oh man, I'm hopping on this. What's your paypal!?

[Kirk Gillock]

Very clever. :)

I hear a lot of feature films, which used this DVX mod, had to remove the bolt in post as well. Someone else figured out that if you use a magnet in the right spot the bolt isn't in the frame while shooting.

[Larry Rutledge]

Wait, does this fix work for the HVX also? Somebody better tell Barry so he can include it in his book before it goes to press!

Finally, some truly innovative thinkers come around and solve our problems :thumbsup:

[Jay Rodriguez]

nice fix

[KOVAROVA]

i thought Tjohara99 and Kdawg already worked it out :evil:

i guess this was before the new fix

[Blaine]

Does anybody know of a feature that has been shot with this?

[Brandon Rice]

I want some footage... without the noise!

[KOVAROVA]

"how much footage would you like with your noise sir?" .. "and would you care for a small side of clunk?"

[Blaine]

You need to learn to embrace the noise. Noise (grain) is your friend. It gives such a "filmic" look. :Drogar-BigGrin(DBG)

[Larry Rutledge]

Besides everything is so quiet when there isn't any noise.


Bring on da' noise!!

I think it just means to remove the sticker that's on the bolt mod.

[Larry Rutledge]

Oh, around....why do you ask so many questions!?!?! http://www.nrestudios.com/images/smilies/emote_head_explode.gif

[Brandon Rice]

HAHA! I need those little smilie guys!

Yep, just a little sharpening and the whole scam is revealed!

Umm. I didn't think of that. :embarasse

Ok, my credit card is ready!:Drogar-Evil(DBG):

[Ben Sliker]

i don't think anyone has talked about light loss yet, i bet that bolt gives up at least 2 stops.

[TimurCivan]

nah 1.5.... i checked it.

[Brandon Rice]

I heard it's less than a stop of light loss.

[mikkowilson]

IS TEh BLOT "CE" marked? I'm in europe (sorry 4 mye bad English) and I want one of theese, where can I get oen?
I herd that the PAL bolt only has 50 threads? is thes true, how dare they? I want an NTSC bolt with 60 threads and an 24 nut but where 2 find one? is www.obviousNYscamsOnGreatGear.com (http://www.obviousNYscamsOnGreatGear.com) a gud place to bye?
