Anybody know if this would work? / have tried? Use this cable with GH2 to plug up an XLR mic, and also plug in headphones to the same cable to monitor your recording? Of coursse you would also have...

I highly recommend NOT using the Strap on any video or photo camera ever. The reason why is that it has led to the demise of some great cameras. Twice I've had the camera jerked away and crash to...

Im leaning towards the GH2 at this point. Here is why. For me, I feel the GH2 will allow me to get the shot faster than the 5D. Both obviously will look good. But for me, Get the shot faster is...

Which package would you buy if you could hypothetically have either one for the same price?

GH2 Package:
with the Voitlander 25mm 0.95 lens.
The stock 14-42mm F4.0.
A 50mm 1.8 Canon FD lens...

I have an 33 year old Canon FD 50mm f1.8 S.C. from an old AE-1. Its older than me! Hope to try it on the GH2 and see how it works soon!

Nice to know you can do this, however, why would you really want to? I own a Panasonic anamorphic lens which i previously had used to use with my DVX100 for 16x9. However, i cant seem to feel...

I would say cineform is better format to stick to because if your on a Mac and you need to give your footage to someone on a PC, they can still edit that footage.

I have a dual boot of VISTA 64 bit and XP 32 bit. I switch back and forth and find VISTA edits very well with CS3 but I still use XP more often for one reason - Magic bullet suite will not run on...

Can anyone recomend me a good place to send my DVX100 to be repaired.
The firewire concetor is not working.
It has been fried internally. Everything else works. Need to send it somewhere.

Found out that the motherboard has a 9 pin firewire connector, while the case has a 6 pin firewire front panel header cable block.
Even though they phiscally will go together, the internal wires,...

Hello.
My DVX100 (original version) needs to be repaired and i was wondering where i can send it to get fixed?

The only problem is the Firewire port does not work anymore. I am wondering if you...

The video looks great.
My question is how did you get it to look so great online. What encoding settings do you use? My videos never look so good online.

I have done this. Its relatively safe.

Except we used an Axe. I do not suggest you try a baseball bat. That is way too cliche'. There are so many other things you can hit something with.

So I cant buy a mic just like the XL2 mic but in XLR? No one makes anything like that?

The Rode NRG- is too long. Will show in camera.

Ive done a search for AGMC100G" in this forum and done see anyone saying anything good about it. Wonder why> I see its been discontinued. I dont need the best mic ever - just one at the level of the...

A party - what exactly? Is there a speaker? can you be more specific? I will tell you that the DVX on board mic is not good for this.
With the on board mic - besides being usable for sink - you...

Other notes:

1_This mic obviously has to be short enough not to be seen in the wide angle lens of the DVX. Im using the panasonic 16x9 conversion lens. The current boom mic i have is too long and...

Is there a good XLR mic i can use for on camera with DVX100 and also use it on a boom pole for other applications?
The DVX built in mic is not good for a lot of applications. Im used to the XL2 mic...

Im building a production studio out of a warehouse.
So where do you buy a lighting grid, and the parts that go along with it to rig lights off of it?

What do I need to rig lights to a lighting grid? I know the lights have the holes that hook up to a C-stand or they can be rigged to hang from the ceiling off the lighting grid.
