hi, i'm looking at cameras with 4:2:2 and 3 CCD chips. i was wondering what cameras out there even have these options that i can compare, i've had trouble organizing a list. i know the hvx fits the bill. i also believe its cmos but does the sony hvr series have 4:2:2?

I was just wondering there is really a reason the mods have instituted a 60 second wait between searches or if it was just the default setting. I don't know what purpose it would really serve on a forum where people are trying to learn. Also, the search often stops so I ciick the button again...

hi, i've seen some work the xha1 like this http://vimeo.com/1707642 where the screen is really wide like a movie theatre i'm not able to get that from my xha1 - is he just filming and capturing normally, but cutting off the top and bottom in post?

http://resources-for-actors.blogspot.com/ Came across this, thought it might help the actors here.

hi i have a canon xha1 i have lots of clips on a tape and when i sample them, i am losing the first 5-10 seconds of each one, so if the actor walks into frame after some lead time, the clip is actually starting when he's already there it hasnt always been this way with my camera and fcp this...

Hi, I have an Ikan HD8000 monitor and I have to plug in the yellow white and red cables from my camcorder into the Y Pb and Pr slots on the monitor. But I don't know which goes to where and don't want to get it wrong and blow up my monitor. Any quick pointers?

hi i am filming with the xha1 at max resolution, HD and 24fps i want to make sure i am capturing my video at the right settings. i thought i had it right but when i play back the window seems a bit smaller than usual i currently have it at 1440x1080, HDV - is that the best the A1 has?

i have the canon xha1 and the ikan 8" hd monitor but neither came with an appropriate cable for connecting them i just wanted to check and make sure that nothing was forgotten from the package and also if anyone can suggest the appropriate cable

okay, my lack of still photography background is probably coming into play here but anyway, for the letus extreme on an xha1, i have the following 2 nikon zoom lenses: 70-210 mm and 43-86 mm anyway, i am able to get them mounted on the letus extreme, but when i manually extend the zoom all...

i am in a bind. i have my 50mm lens in my Letus Extreme and i can't get it out to change to another lens. i don't want to twist any harder trying to remove it. anyone have any troubleshooting ideas or just a step by step of how they remove their lenses? i havent had this problem before

while looking at lenses on BHphoto, i have noticed that often they will have the very same lens but an imported version and a USA version. the USA version is always 5-10% more. example: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/92011-GREY/Nikon_00001923_Wide_Angle_AF_Nikkor.html...

i was wondering what the practical difference is between these 2 heads that makes them $350 apart despite both being fluid heads with the same weight load i found a thread on another forum that was about the bogen 503 vs 516 vs 519, but all that ensued was a big discussion about the 503 vs the...

i am trying to make a good decision on a tripod and head and wanted to get some good advice from the knowledgeable people on here i have a canon xha1 and letus extreme and i would also like to use and indislider or t-slide (which i understand to go between the tripod and head) anyway, with...

hi can someone please tell me what the difference is for me when using my adaptor if i get a nikkor autofocus lens or not? thanks
