I don't understand why you would think "that's kind of sad"? It is the way the camera is designed to be used and prevents people from shooting themselves in the foot. The Custom mode is intended to...

Hi Paul, everything this great here. I hope you can say the same.
I agree with you about the S1H and a year later, I'm still loving it. So glad I skipped the FX9 and went this direction instead.

If anyone is interested, I've released a 19-minute free version of Chapter 1 from my S1H Master Class.

Worst piece of crap I've suffered through in a long time, and I am a big Clooney fan. It would take too much time to point out all the flaws in the story, suffice it to say it was just plain stupid...

Paul, this is probably not the answer you want to hear, but my advice is to forget about streaming from the camera directly and instead use something like the Blackmagic Web Presenter.

Last summer...

FYI, the Flowtech tripods ( I own a 75mm and two 100mm) all have three 3/8" sockets at the base of the head (between each leg) for mounting accessory arms, handles, straps, or whatever you want. ...

I think the CBS Sunday Morning show is still protecting for 4x3.

That was 13 years ago!

Broadcasting in interlaced is an entirely different subject from shooting in interlaced. I don't have the statistics to back it up, but I'm willing to bet that most broadcast television, including...

It sounds like those specifications are pretty old and outdated. If I was you, I'd go back and check with the client before I wasted any time or money thinking about interlaced. I really cannot...

I'm curious to know what possible reason you would have for recording 1080i.

The best time to match cameras is before you press the record button. Actually, before you ever leave home. If you've got scopes and charts it is easier, but even just with a monitor that has an A/B...

Just for future reference, SDI from any Sony camera is always at least 10-bit.

It ensured my camera would always be the A camera. The other cameras were never going to match no matter what was done on location because in those days painting the cameras had to be done by taking...

I agree with that attitude for today's cameras. But back in the day of my Ikegami HL59 Betacam I kept a Tiffen Soft/FX 2 discreetly screwed onto the front of my lens 100% of the time. I never took...

Chris, you speak words of wisdom. Time is money and anything that speeds up the process for you in post or makes dealing with clients easier is probably worth the expense.

Looks very interesting, but too expensive to justify for the very little use I would get from it.

A Z280 and a FX6 would make a nice combo. Like owning a pickup truck and sports car. Both good, but for different stuff.

I'm not a big fan of the Z190 because if it's poor performance in low light, but the Z280 a killer camera. It blows the EX1 out of water in every way you want to compare them. If you like the EX1...

Chris, are you sure the Tiiffen software is really necessary? I graded this version of your original in about a minute using Resolve. It would have been even faster if just chose whatever I liked...

The XQD to SxS adapters have been discontinued. So if you don't already have them, you might have trouble finding them. I scooped up the last one I could find on Amazon about 6 months ago just to...

That does look pretty good. The whites are being handled better than what we often see on big league network sports broadcasts. Well done.

Thank you both. I must admit it was a very productive weekend and that I loved shooting it.

This is an extended version of a video I uploaded last year. The pace of the editing in this version is slower and graphics have been added to identify the wildlife. The video (without the camera...

No.
