Hi everyone. I haven't posted on here for years (since my DVX). It's great to be back in the Panasonic fold. I just wondered if anyone as tried using the GH4 with the Konova sliders for an interval move? I cannot seem to get the devices to interface. I've tried different modes and settings...

Here is a video I recently shot using my DVX100B, bellow are links to youtube and vimeo (vimeo is better but you can compare): http://www.youtube.com/user/gaugemymedia?feature=mhee http://vimeo.com/33675104 I did all the filming, lighting and editing. The official music video will be cut with...

I know at first this doesn't seem like much of a match up. However I have the DVX100B and a lens adaptor and a 50mm and 20mm lens. Now I'm thinking of selling all this gear to get me just the HVX200 and a couple of P2 cards. What would people advise? Stick with the DVX or go for the HVX? Also...

Hi, I have a question, it might be a silly one but here goes... The Vimeo guidelines state that I need to upload: 640x480 for 4:3 SD video and 640x360 for 16:9 SD video Now if I'm using squeeze mode which is it, 640x480 or 640x360 due to the fact its not true 16:9? Or is this just a ratio...

Hi folks, I'm discovering as I use my DVX100B more and more that 60 minutes of tape is just not enough in some situations and a tape change can really cause some problems in post. Now I could go with a tapeless system but I don't have hundreds of pounds to spend on this at the moment so I was...

Hi, I'm looking for a good second camera (possibly even another DVX), for under the £400-£500 mark. The second camera will be used by my partner in crime to film at weddings, live events etc... I shoot mostly in widescreen, progressive and wondered if there was anything besides the DVX that...

I really need some help here. After using my lens adapter over the following week I noticed a fixed blemish on my images (and on the LCD screen). Now this spot is only present whilst using the lens adaptor. I dismantled the lens adaptor and found what was causing the problem. there is a tiny...

I have been planning on buying a AT897 mic for my DVX. However I recently used a Zoom H4 recorder and I have to say I was really impressed with the results. I could just leave it in one position for the whole gig (or I could mount it to my camera if needed). I got a nice even sound and because...

Hi all, I wondered if anyone had any suggestions for a shoulder support I can use with my DVX100B. I live in England so a seller in the EU would be good. Cheers Kev

Hi guys, once again I come asking for your advise.... I'm shooting a music video for a band called The Proctors. I have been shooting most the film on super 8 footage which is 4:3. Now I definitely want to use 25p on my DVX but I've only ever used it in squeeze mode. How does the footage look...

I just want to check I have the following information correct as it is the first time I'm importing anything in FCP. I'm using my DVX100B in 25p (PAL) and squeeze mode. My EasySetup is: Format: PAL Frame Rate: 25.00 fps Use: DV-PAL Anamorphic Can somebody just let me know if this is correct...

This is the first time I've ever uploaded anything to the internet from my dvx. Please let me know what you think (sorry about the audio, it keeps stuttering): http://www.youtube.com/user/gaugemymedia?feature=mhee Thanks Kev

Hi all, finally I have got Final Cut Studio to use with my DVX100B. How do I import 25p (PAL) footage into FCP? Thanks Kevin

Does anyone know where I can pick up the anamorphic lens for true 16:9 for my DVX? Kind Regards Kevin

Hi everyone I start shooting a rather large project on the UK trials bike scene next week and need some advice. So far I have been very happy with my DVX100B's performance and have not needed to upscale. However this project requires some extra quality as it will really be a labor of love. For...
