would the field of view change? I'm assuming the FOV get wider, so a 24mm would look more like a 16mm or something. Can I use the 5d3 to get a feel for the conversion?
What functions or performance are limited with "power save mode" on the C300mk3?
And could this potentially increase the frequency of buffering issues?
I'm always looking to downsize my kit as I fly to most gigs. Saw this Kaster brand smart charger, wondering if there's any known downsides to using this type of charger with my Canon BP-A60 batteries? Only negative in the reviews say that charging 2 batteries at once takes much longer than with...
Which are the best CFexpress cards for the c300mk3 shooting 4k Raw? I have the Delkin blacks, which are pretty good, but sometimes the camera stops recording due to buffering issues.
So my C300mk3 has been set up with shotgun mic on Input 1 and wireless mic on Input 2 for years. I haven't changed anything but today I couldn't get any audio from input 2 as its stuck in line mode, despite manually dialing to MIC or MIC phantom power. I can get the mics not working on Input 2...
I have Sanken cos-11D lavs and use the Rycote undercovers when I need to hid the lav. I'd say 70% of the time I use this method, I'll get friction noise when the subject moves their arms.
What's the best practice here to avoid friction noise? I've heard some people have success attaching the...
Yes, for indoor interviews. Thanks or the links! I should try the towel trick as well. Here's a recent interview shot. Here's a graded shot, key lit with a Hudson Mozzi bouncing off a white 5ft umbrella.
Noticed when shooting darker skin tones, sometimes the reflectivity of the skin is nice, but in certain circumstances it's not ideal. Any advice on the most appropriate screw-on polarizers to use for this application? I don't shoot with a mattebox, so the Rota Pola/Rota Tray is not going to work...
I have a 2 month old c300mk3 shooting with new Delkin CF Express cards. Card says it reads at 1730mb/s and writes at 1540. I have 4 cards. With each card, if I shoot off-speed above 60fps, 50% of the time the camera will stop recording and give the buffering card error message. If I do a long...
Been with the c300 series for almost a decade now, currently own the mk2 and mk3. I have director I've never worked with who wants to avoid the c300's and is asking what I think about the Sony FS options. The shoot is going to be with a very lean crew (often just myself and the director). It's a...
A director i've never worked with is interested in hiring me for a feature doc covering the training/career of a current Olympic athlete. I shoot a ton of sports content (Hard Knocks/Last Chance U style but more stylized and crafted when possible) and the c300 series has always worked well for...
I shoot a ton of handled sports content and the 17-55 2.8 IS has been my go to for a long time, it's a great range, not a heavy lens, and I think gives L quality results but when shooting above UHD, you can see the lens barrels in the corners of the frame. I realize the c300mk3 has stabilization...
I shoot a ton of interviews and have settled on 50-60 IRE for Caucasian skin tones. Darker skin maybe around 40-50. Curious what others have found works well for them. I’d venture to guess I’m exposing a little brighter than most.
My question about 12-bit 4K XF-AVC was answered a few days ago. But also wondering why the c300mk2 shoots 12bit 1920x1080 but not the c300mk3? It was a favorite codec of many c300mk2 users on this forum.
