A bit off topic, but man oh man every time I see BMD screengrabs I'm reminded how 2.5k and below bayer origination is not so hot for 1080p delivery....

Ah how could I forget! Pretty telling.

My F3 in contrasty rec.709 mode has 12 stops. The Alexa has 14. The GH2 8. Haven't seen any solid testing of the 7D. It costs roughly 2k less a DAY on a feature to shoot with an Alexa over a GH2,...

I warned you guys about trying to talk sense here :P

"managing daylight" is not a cultural difference, it's what real life cinematographers do on a daily basis.

People that have absolutely no idea what they're talking about questioning the credentials of people that have done more for this industry than they'll ever be able to fathom? Yup, looks like I've...

I do "focus pulls" with a follow focus on pretty big primes using a fotodiox adapter nearly daily, and don't get wobbly images. If your lens is wobbly, either bend the tabs inside the adapter out...

It will have quite an advantage over the film I was going to enter shot on an f3 :(


Seize the day!

it's actually used pretty often in episodic work right now...I've seen TONS of f3 rigs on episodic production. Saw two pairs of stereoscopic f3 setups shooting at the indy 500 last year.

They're...

Well, I'm glad I didn't go to the trouble of making a film thread.

I put off an ERCP surgery a couple months so I could get something made for this. Easy to do when the pain isn't that bad and not...

No, rec.709 is the wider gamut color space that is specified for all HD video. All HD camcorders and dslrs use this colorspace internally when taking the sensors rgb output and encoding it to YUV for...

You must be new here.

Ryan, can't wait to see some updates and eventually the film!

Not to be a negative nancy, but we're more than a month in and no prize thread or any updates? Not too many entries? Seems kinda dead around here :/

Haha definitely! Isn't south bend pretty far out from indy?

Indiana? Howdy buddy!

No tanks but a lot of fun cars!

In essentially the same situation, need to have surgery in the next month or so, not sure what to do...forcing myself to shoot something for this even if my script is horrible, simply because I need...

Totally.

depends on how you define resolution, broface killa. If you define resolution as resolvable detail at a given point in temporal space, then yes, they very well do. And in fact, With driftwoods new...

In the video you posted first you can hear you say "ok" at the end :)

That's a funny lookin' circle! :)

Also, loving the "fun" button.

100% true, the gh2 writes to rec.709 complaint broadcast range h.264. blacks at 16 and whites at 235.

No anomalies, your log and transfer or fcp itself automatically expands these files to full...
