I have a Canon 17-55mm f/2.8 and a Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 (both APS-C). I'm looking for a close equivalent to these lenses that are full frame, e-mount and don't use focus by wire, I need a mechanical focus. Anything out there?? EDIT: E-mount is not a requirement as I have a metabones adapter...

I highly underestimated just how difficult it would be to shoot out of an open-door helicopter. The vibration of the helicopter itself was difficult enough to deal with, and then there was the wind. Prior going up I had considered renting a gimbal of some sort but I feel like the force of the...

I bought this lens when I bought my A7S last year but ended up never using it. Not even once. It also comes its in original box, so it's essentially a brand new lens. Asking $300 + free shipping in the USA. Would prefer not to sell outside of the USA, but if you insist, you need to pay whatever...

Hi! I recorded some audio that's only in the left channel because I couldn't figure out how to make it record in left and right. I'm trying to figure out how to take my left channel audio and duplicate it to the right channel so I have mono audio in both channels. Haven't done this since my FCP...

Hey all. I've been using a 7D for years now shooting run and gun documentary stuff and i'm thinking of switching over to the A7S. The lenses i've used are the Canon 17-55mm f/2.8 Sigma 10mm f/2.8 Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 Now, I realize I kinda shot myself in the foot and bought all APS-C lenses...

In the final film i'll ever cut in FCP 7, i've run into a pretty huge issue at the finish line: major image degradation upon rendering a clip. Take a look. No grading. Plain ole h.264 file. http://rovingtypistfilm.com/misc/sc3.jpg After grading is applied with Magic Bullet Looks (unrendered)...

I made a short film with my girlfriend about a man we found in the East Village of Manhattan. We accidentally walked into his home, thinking it was an antique shop. We wanted to know his story and we wanted to pass it on to as many people as possible. I hope you enjoy it! Your feedback is...

This is the first time i've ever shot food. My girlfriend has a food blog and was looking to add some video to it, so I decided to film her cooking our favorite dessert, Key Lime Pie. I'm here looking for some critical feedback. Everyone i've sent it to aren't too great at critiquing, but being...

So, my friend is giving me this Tripod. http://cl.ly/DCQ6 http://cl.ly/DDSa Looks like it's a Bogen 316. I tried Googling already but can't find the information I need. It doesn't seem like this head will accomodate a 7D. Can someone recommend to me what adapter or plate I need to make this...

Does anyone know if any real good informative articles or tutorials that explain shutter speed really well? Advantages/disadvantages of shutter speeds, when you would use certain shutter speeds, etc? I'm not looking for someone to explain it to me, I know about it, but I need to find a good...

I've been wanting to get an on-camera battery powered LED light for a while now. The two i've tried (i don't remember the names) caused some pretty nasty flickering issues for the camera. I went through every shutter speed the 7D has but wasn't able to eliminate the flicker. Do all LED lights...
