A bugger of a problem I'm having with my Sennheiser ME66/K6 mic with 2 dSLRs... When the ME66 is connected to a Zoom H4n providing Phantom power, I have no problems with audio. Put in a battery and switch phantom power off, no problems either. I've also never had any problems with the mic...

http://blogs.zdnet.com/Apple/?p=57 Saw this on digg... Kinda freaks me out a bit, however I do plan on replacing my desktop PC with a Apple tower (and to sorta replace my 1st gen 12" powerbook), and I hope they wouldn't have to skimp on the connections on a desktop machine?

I caught this today on TUAW (The Unofficial Apple Weblog)... It may be of interest to you folks who are thinking of getting a new Mac, but can't afford one of the newer G5 towers... http://www.tuaw.com/2005/10/21/new-imacs-not-final-cut-pro-4-5-friendly/ Tho, some of the comments down the page...

http://members.cox.net/albosta/vid/NationalAirportTLmpeg4.mp4 Ok, so sorry if this belongs someplace else, but you know, its not "still photo", because it is moving, but it is also not a clip of a DVX, Sony or Canon camera either, so guess what folks, here it goes. If the mods care to move it...

http://www.flickr.com/photos/55201644@N00/sets/565376/ A few shots I have taken over the past few weeks with my Nikon D70s. Enjoy. I'll be working on video I shot of some of this stuff, but will likely be a few weeks before I have a finished product. ~Andrew

Older vid I shot on a lark in college with my Canon ZR-40 (long before I ever considered getting the DVX) Production values are horrid, and the acting is sub par. There was noone on set checking for contuinity either, so I know its off...

Well, you hope that this never, ever has to happen, but it did to me... There is a speck of something inside my lens and it is showing up at any f-stop above f8. I noticed it recently while setting up to shoot. It was just a faint out-of-focus black spot in the bottom right of the LCD, certainly...

So lets say I want to do a documentary on people who do mass pirating of CD's and sell them on the street. How do they get away with these expose's on the news magazines? When the doc. is released, would I be required to turn over my materials to law enforcement? Could I be taken to court and...

I shot my friend's wedding a while back and am now just finishing up the edit (way to many other things going on in my life, including a move). Anyway: Do you know of anyone who has done a "director's commentary" of sorts on a wedding DVD, with the couple? I like to think I am the first person...

Hi. Ok, I did a quick search for "pan" in this forum and I got all the "Pan"ther, "Pan"asonic, etc responses in my results, so I'll just ask. All of my audio (stereo pairs I guess) have the pan set at -1, seemingly by default. Is there a reason for this that I'm missing? Shouldnt the default...

Hi, Ok, I shot a wedding for a friend of mine, and I need to get around to editing it. I have captured all of the footage into FCP 4.1. I am about to go away for the weekend, and do not want to bring my external harddrive with me (all of the video files are on there), but I would like to be...

Not that this is -that- big of a deal, but just something to watch out for next time you travel: Flew out of Washington Dulles this weekend to Burlington, VT, and both going and coming back I had to take my DVX and pos Canon ZR40 out of the bag and have them individually screened, ala a laptop...

Hey all. So I got my DVX today, and now need to consider how I'm going to transport the thing safely. I like LowePro gear, and use it for all my 35mm camera stuff. I have heard some people suggest the smaller backpacks for the DVX. This would be sweet, but does anyone have a small (carryon...

Please don't kill me! (I searched and am still confused). Ok, so I'm ordering my DVX100a tomorrow (hopefully it'll be in stock), and I have a few tapes laying around that I figure I can use for testing out the camera. I will be getting MQ's soon tho. While I wait for the MQ's, I have sitting...
