I've shot previously with my GH3 a fair amount but would like to get more serious and shoot with the end in mind so to speak, rather than shooting randomly and piecing together a video afterwards. With this in mind I want to shoot in the best settings for editing in mind. I'm planning on...

I have a Rode stereo mic pro but have never really travelled anywhere with it. I've got a big trip this summer though where I want to shoot a lot of video so am planning on taking it with me. Unfortunately it doesn't come with any sort of case. Is just a soft pouch enough protection for it or...

I'm after a cheap travel slider for my GH3. It will largely be used on a lightweight fluid head with the 12-35mm so will never have much weight on it. I'm looking at the Konova K1 or maybe K2 at the moment, probably in the shortest, 48cm or 60cm, length. Any other recommendations on anything a...

I'm looking at really trying to learn from top to bottom an decent NLE. Due to current financial reasons I'm looking at using FCPX. I do however not expect my next laptop to be a mac so would obviously at some point have to swap over to Premiere. Will I essentially be relearning from scratch...

I'm looking at investing in a new video camera soon, and although I'm planning on waiting until after NAB before making my final decision I figure there’s nothing wrong with doing a bit of research beforehand. Image and usability wise the cameras which have caught my attention most have been...

I apologise if this is the wrong section for this but hopefully I’ll get some helpful answers here. I’m looking at getting a camcorder soon, mainly for the long lens and ease of shooting. I’m going to be running around being a mountain guide over the summer so don’t want to have to deal with...

I currently have a Benro S6 video head and am looking to get a monopod to use with it for when my tripod is just too big. Any suggestions? I looked at getting the Benro fluid monopod but seemingly that is only available with the head and I have no use for two. It also doesn't seem to be...

Hi guys, I've been looking at getting a small handheld rig to use with my GH3. I want to still be able to move the camera all over the place and like the controlled handheld look you can seemingly get with a fig rig. I would however like something that ideally is considerably smaller and was...

Hi guys, I've just bought myself a benro s6 tripod kit and have a couple of concerns with it and just want to know if it's normal behaviour or something I should be worried about. My problems are mainly related to the counterbalance. The 3 levels seem to work and are clearly different. I do...

Hey guys, sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this but it seemed to be the place where I'd get the best educated answers. I'm basically looking at getting a macbook pro 15 with retina display for editing on. A lot of the time when I edit I'm on the move and don't have access to my external...

I'm mainly a stills photographer but am trying to get more into video and have been doing timelapses but would like some normal speed footage and pans etc to break it up a bit. I'm using a GH3 and have been looking for a solution that will allow me to do both photo and video with minimal...
