I am selling my barely used DJI Phantom 2 (version 2) with the H3-3d Axis Gimbal and the GoPro Black Hero 4. I've flown it about 5 times. The gimbal needs resetting (it sits at an angle) but everything else works fine. I've only recorded 3 videos on the GoPro so it's pretty much new too. The...

I am selling my DJI Phantom 2 v2 with the h3-3d gimbal and GoPro Black 4 (with 16gb sd card that records 4k fine). I've only flown it 3 times. No crashes. Basically brand new. You Will have to reset the gimbal via the software as it's staying at a 'angle' instead of 'straight'. Other than...

I had both the BMC 2.5k EF and GH4. I've decided to sell my BMC which left me with the great Sigma by its lonesome. I do not have a Speedbooster and I figure I'd just downsize for now. I'm just a hobbyist so I can do without it for the time being. I've rarely used it and is in great...

I don't recall seeing this discussed unless I just didn't look hard enough, but I have some extra money laying around and wonder which option to go with. I have the GH4 and have the Sigma Art 18-35 EF (no speedbooster, just basic adapter). Would you purchase the Speedbooster or get the Pana...

I am new to the M4/3 world and coming from Canon and BMCC. I have the Sigma Art 18-35 EF, and a cheap adapter with the GH4 but I hate it because I can't change aperture. Why is the Sigma 18-35 and speedbooster combo so popular with the gh4 if you cannot change aperture once it's on the adapter...

Here is the flat image I have of it

I just did a quick test with my gh3, did some color correction, etc. and the footage still reminds me of a "home made cam" look instead more film-ish look. Is this a lens issue, coloring issue, or...? The test is: https://vimeo.com/66189278

I've been a graphic designer for quite a while and have always had an interest in video. I'm beginning to learn and study a lot about it, but there's one question I've recently thought about and cannot find the answer. I understand the 'craving' by some for RAW video because working with RAW...

I've read a little regarding boom microphones, but cannot find a good solution. I'm definitely not an audio guy, nor do I have lots of cash lying around, so I know there are limitations using 'cheap' stuff. I'm recording in a very small room with nothing in it but props, green screen, and my...
