    Generic baseplates?

    I have a Libec 38 tripod. And I want to buy some rigging equipment for the 5D. So I need a baseplate to put all this stuff on. But how do I know if the baseplate fits onto my tripod (a Libec LS-38)? I´ve tried looking through reviews, but there's never a mention of baseplate measurements and...

    What's the best settings, for shooting as "flat" as possible?

    I want to do all colorgrading in post and want to shoot as flat as possible, getting as much information on to the P2-card as possible. What are the best settings for this? Are there any better custom settings than those that come with the camera? Where can I find them? Thanx for listening!

    Will this work? Using yellow filters to get more detail.

    Yellow filters in front of the lens help you alot, when you're shooting black and white, as you are blocking the blue light out, nature seems to look a lot more contrasty. This is a typical trick, that BW still photographers have used for ages to enhance their pictures. Using an HPX170 I can...

Will this drive have fast enough disk access for editing P2 footage? I will use a cheaper 2 TB disk for backup...

    Is there a FAQ explaining the 25P, 25pn, undercranking etc?

    Is there a wiki or faq explaining the P vs. Pn? Also what happens when I shoot slowmo or fastmo in these modes. I have read a lot of posts on this, but I still find it hard to understand, cause all of these posts usually mention NTSC, and I dont understand all the 3:2 pulldown thing. I just...

    Setting for dampening the highlight blowout. (The video look).

    It´s the highlight blowout on the HPX, that bothers me the most. When this happens in contrasty enviroments, it usually dont look good. The problem is, I think, the hard edge between the blowout and the not-blowout. It could also have something to do with the cheap lens and small sensor. (First...
