Hi there, I'm looking for recommendations for an adapter that will work with the GH1 and an older Canon FD lens. I've seen a couple different ones on eBay and would like to hear some experiences from the community. Find one that's tight, reliable and works every time or did you buy one that has...

Yesterday I finally did the GH13 hack on my camera and got it working. I did have some initial issues due to needing the newer version of pTool ver. 40d (who knew there were multiple versions of the same rev). So anyway, seems to work (using lpowells reliable AVCHD and MJPEG settings). After...

During the time I've been jonesing for an HD camera, I've come to appreciate my DVX and what it can do. I'm liking the look that you can get with a Brevis or M2 adaptor, but get hung up on the lack of native 16:9 chips on the DVX. I've done some letterbox shoots and also have played with the...

I've been working on a clients project using their computer and I took the hard drive home to work on my personal computer. In the preferences, I set the Preview files to go into the same folder as the project. If I open the Preview files directory, I can see the preview files that I rendered...

I've been doing research lately to figure out what kind of system I'll need to edit 2k projects with Red. I'm on a PC using Premiere, so a dual core Xeon cpu with 4 gigs of memory and an Aja Zena card look to be good options. It looks like using Cineforms Prospect HD might also be a good...

What's the latest thinking in terms of audio inputs on Red? How is the quality of the pre-amps? Built-in limiter? Don't see much talk on this here.

It seems like a lot of the lens discussion here has concentrated on using the still lenese like the Nikkors. From what I've gathered so far, the cine lenses like Cookes breathe less and are better designed for the needs of motion image gathering. I know that cost is also a factor. I'd like to...

Was wondering if a letterboxed 4:3 would be acceptable for entry into this fest. Seeing how the DVX is not native 16:9, I'm assuming I either have to go to squeeze mode or buy an anamorphic adapter (ummm, not gonna happen, not on my salary at least...). Am I missing other options? Please advise.

Howdy campers, I'm curious what other DVX users are doing to handle high contrast lighting situations. I'd like to max out the cameras ability to handle these difficult situations. For example, your shooting an interior shot with sunlight coming through a window where you either get a totally...

So I had this theory that shooting 24p would be a good choice for doing Web based video since computer monitors are basically progressively scanned. I usually shoot in 60i but finally got a DVX and am now trying to do 24p for the above reason. The type of shots I do have a lot of motion, mostly...

Hi there, Just switched to Premiere on a PC and was wondering what the general concensus is on what file format is better for this application. I'm using a Firestore FS-4 and can record to a QTime or AVI file. I also have the choice of AVI Type 1, Type 2 and Type 2 24P. To be honest, I don't...

Hi there, I was wondering if anyone here has experience matching video from the DVX100 to a JVC DV500. Naturally, the film gamma would have to turned off. I can change quite a few settings on my JVC, so if you have some insight into this, I would be appreciative. I have a very cool gig coming...
