Doug, your list of don't likes could have been written by me. Also your taste in music. I'm worried you might be a long lost brother my father didn't tell me about!

Just had to pass on this simple tip to any FX3/30 users who use an external monitor. I just bought an FX3 as a B cam and a Shinobi as the camera LCD screen is too small to be useful. (For some situations I prefer a monitor to an EVF.) Great, except you can’t see both the LCD and the external...

I need some new headphones, mostly for editing. The new Rode NTH-100s look interesting. Wonder if anyone has tried/compared them, eg to the new Sennheisers - my Sennheiser HD-26 Pros just gave up the ghost.

Also like to see tracking slightly improved.

Better than switching off as your hand accidentally brushes past it...

Did some quick tests during a break on a shoot last week and found that setting the lens steady shot ON and then stabilising in Resolve worked slightly better than stabilising in Catalyst Browse, which you can only do if the lens ss is off. Tried it on my 24-105 and 70-200, same result with...

Here we go again. Sigh.

Totally agree with Doug. Cameras these days are actually computers with lenses to gather light and process it. There are SO MANY adjustments we can make that affect this process and it's hard to find the best settings for different situations. I've used most still and video cameras (no...

Copied from the Resolve manual: DaVinci Resolve is resolution independent, so you can change the resolution at any time and all windows, tracks, sizing changes, and keyframe data will be automatically recalculated to fit the new size. For example, you can work on a 4K project while monitoring...

Grug is correct

Put my order in over nine weeks ago, was told eight to twelve weeks but I'll believe it when I have it in my cold little hands!

Well, that wasn't too bad. Could have been much worse!

Jesus wept. Stop bombarding us with useless information. How long was the day? 8 hours? 12 hours? 16 even? And was that with continuous takes? Stop starting? Did you time how many minutes each take was and then add them up for a grand total? And what about reviewing takes? Did you even do that...

A little bird just told me CVP (in the UK) have over 150 pre-ordered "and they're coming through in ones and twos." Looks like Sony got this one right.

My dealer told me to expect to wait 6 weeks at best but it could be between 8 to 12. Have gigs booked so will have to rent till it arrives. At the rate Sony is releasing cameras we'll be on to the FX6 mk2 by then!
