I'm suprised no one mentioned the Leica Vario-Elmar 14-50 2.8-3.5. It looks like the best allround run 'n gun lens with manual aperture and focus rings. It's a lot faster than the 14-140, which at F4...

It's a decent arm- strange thing is that I have solid lockdown on occasions but this is the first time I am shooting a lot with my rig and my monitor is swinging away from me... Is it the way you...

I'm using a flexible arm to mount a monitor to my cage but I cannot get it to 'lock' into place. Vertical lock is fine but with heavier accesories the arm will slide sideways on the ball joints....

I have been using my mattebox for the second time now now and because I didn't place the 4x4 glass ND filter close enough to the lens, I am getting reflections from the glass in my footage. I also...

Or keep it wide open and use a vari ND, as someone suggested... But then you lose sharpness, but how bad/much...?

Thanks for your suggestions, Devon. You think the Tokina/pancake combo is too sharp for the Canon FD?

As far as your suggestion for the Tamron: I have the Tamron 17-50 2.8 VC for my T2i, so I...

I'm about to start shooting a doc on a person in and around her house, which is located close to the beach, in a beautiful wooded area. I've done some tests with the Panasonic 20mm 1.7 and I plan to...

Did you buy the Nikon mount with a M43 adapter?

I've ordered the Gini cage: I won the auction at $175,- shipped it's a good price- doesn't have a HDMI-clamp, base plate but will accomodate different sized camera's, has handles. I have other Gini...

It would seem that shooting black&white would be the better option because:

a) the camera hardware & software work together to produce the same image
b) it's always better to try to get the...

I just wondered what opinions there are on leaving a fader nd filter permanently attached to your lens. Do some of you take it off when shooting indoors, for instance, and then screw on a uv-filter....

Damn, that's too bad... I like to see exactly what's happening when I'm shooting. Especially considering the noise I am getting at around ISO 500. It's really bad... Maybe it's the 44M patch, maybe...

Yes, mine is hacked and I did apply a different patch. I'm using the 44M patch. I doubt that it was shooting at selected ISO (500) because I see grain where there shouldn't be...

I don't know what happened but I must have changed some settings because everyt time I start recording, Auto ISO turns on. THat didn't happen before... Exposure is set to M. I have read a bunch of...

Thanks- why did I miss that... ;-{

I have the pancake 20mm 1.7 and have the focus button set to AFS. I guess I have inadvertently changed some setting because the camera goes focus hunting after I set focus by selecting an area in the...

Solved. Second card was recognized by FCP, first card I used Media Converter to rewrap the AVCHD files...

I have a problem: Log and Transfer in FCP 7 doesn't recognize the files. With the same hack, it did before. Difference is that I know have much bigger files: a few seconds of footage vs minutes of...

Thanks. I found streamparser, got it to work, but have no idea how to interpret the numbers.

Stream: Max Speed = 187.656.100 bps
Mode = 1080/24pN
PCR Timing Interval = 0,095 seconds
...

Maybe a silly question but how can you verify the hack was succesful? I applied the 176 QuantMeBaby patch. The firmware version stays the same (which is right) and I was able to record on a Sandisk...

Just read this- I am interested. Can't find it at Indisystems.com though... How do you guys like it? Is the price still $99,- for the cage only?

An experiment to see if I can reach 1000 viewers in a month, 10.000 in six months. (YouTube and Vimeo combined) The assignment: make a simple, no-budget clip that you can produce in spare time. As a...

You're welcome. Whitebalance was set to 7000K (shade) The GH2 has a tendency towards yellow, particularly apparent when compared to the Canon 550D/T2i:

I did a practical comparison between the different presets available in the GH2. Those interested can watch here:

Did you buy it on eBay? Do you have a link where you bought the kipon adapter? Thanks.
