    Help with editing 24p Advanced footage in 2026

    Only thing I can offer (which means remember, haha) is: (1) Make sure the conversion process is exactly the same (double-check, triple-check settings). (2) Sometimes some of us in the past bought older computers with older software on eBay to have better workflows with these older cameras. (3)...

    Breathing sounds

    I used to use a gooseneck (not for breathing but mostly touching-the-camera-body sounds and getting just a tiny bit closer to audio source but that doesn't work with the wider glass choices), looks strange but might help, would need adapters on ends depending on how it's mounted...

    Do seamless rubber focus gear rings slip with stiff lenses?

    If you've never used a solid mechanical system with very smooth precision, ones like the above could work for basic adjustments (short turns in an interview if the subject moves forwards or backwards an ich or two, etc). Some lenses work better with them than others and I think the main issue...

    OTHER: personal-view site offline gh2

    A lot of stuff eventually disappears from the internet (much bigger than this), especially such a niche project that Panasonic didn't even like (manipulating their firmware). I have so much history of stuff on hard drives, I think it's almost guaranteed some dude out there has a drive in a...

    OTHER: personal-view site offline gh2

    There's not much traffic on this site anymore and the people that are here likely won't have anything, but maybe someone will randomly come across this and still have the files. Personal View seems like it's still up?

    Pretty damn QUIET in here.......

    I just saw - like 5 minutes ago - an ad on YouTube from Fiverr (tried to find it but couldn't) that was promoting using an AI video editor from their service and the video ended with something like..."And what you don't need is this:" (and it had a design graphic of a video production team...

    MIRRORLESS: GH2 and Flowmotion in 2026

    Your best bet is to just keep searching forums like this and even maybe reaching out to random individuals from Vimeo/YT, etc. Sometimes people would buy different camera bodies with FW if you couldn't roll back to an earlier version (or the camera company blocked any type of...

    The state of Cinema

    At the time, WBD was already leaning towards Netflix but Paramount wouldn't go without a fight and submitted the 'hostile' bid...then Netflix updated its own and then I stopped following so I don't know what exactly happened, but it's likely going to drag on if Netflix wants it since they simply...

    The state of Cinema

    You'll see about 5-15 articles about AI on Yahoo Finance every day. Currently the market is in one of its AI spending fear waves and it's wreaking havoc with the selling and rotation, the bubble continuing to grow. I don't know if the concerns are real - although the amount of money the Mag 7...

    C100: Yeesh maaaan

    Time to post the famous C300 Blue Ruin example...heavily shared back in the day and we were all impressed. I know it's dated now for people who are watching the latest and greatest on YouTube in 4K on a 4K monitor, but the camera held its own. Still today with all of the compressed ads and...

    MIRRORLESS: Lumix GH6: what is base ISO?

    The nomenclature of the settings is irrelevant; it's just about the process you're engaging. Whether it improves IQ or doesn't is up to you to decide, but shooting with a higher ISO is not a drawback simply because you're fighting against more light, you just have to use ND filtration like 100%...

    MIRRORLESS: Lumix GH6: what is base ISO?

    Closing the lens down all the way (or that much) will produce lens diffraction, which will destroy the video quality and neither camera setting will help you then.

    CAMCORDERS: Shooting my new film on the HPX170, give me your advice

    You can get many cameras to have that dynamic range (based on the conditions and some post), but what's harder is to get that real low-resolution look. Sometimes people get close but it's never the same. Those two detail settings are for sharpness. Sharpness is much easier to replicate in post...

    CAMCORDERS: Shooting my new film on the HPX170, give me your advice

    This site has gone through many changes and I don't know exactly what or how much is archived but scene file discussions were abundant in those years (meaning you'd find many here if they are still up). Barry's books had great examples and pictures [and lots of info about the camera(s) of...

    2026 Sundance Doc cameras

    Although you wouldn't expect it today - or I wouldn't - some of those people might still go to a traditional film school learning system where the Mini is the smallest camera they've ever used for what they do or what they are interested in doing. Like, yeah, they know about mirrorless' and...
