Sounds good. I will put some stills together once I get done goofing around with my “tests”. The next thing I want to try is just lowering the iso while using my custom profile and see if that reduces the noise. Seems obvious but everything I’ve read runs contrary to that. 850 just seems way...

Hi Dustin, I originally posted this to the Cafe because it’s more of a “woe is me” thing than an actual problem, but maybe I should grab a couple frames. Mostly I’m just talking about mushy blacks, posterization/banding…etc. These are codec limitations I’m guessing and not really the fault of...

Just gonna be a decade late whiner for a minute. Recently I purchased a C100mk2 as it was always my “dream camera” or whatever. Because I plan to use it in real world uncontrolled lighting scenarios for B-Roll as well as interviews I was curious to see how each of the stock profiles performed...

From what I've read the camera doesn't oversample in the 50p mode so it will appear softer...sorry if I'm not understanding your question correctly.

I just hope I can get them on board. We are pretty scattered as of late, and now we have kids, and real jobs etc.

Hi all - A few years back I captured all of the home movies and short films that I taped in high school, and whittled down the 24 hours to around 3 or so. My plan was to share it with the friends who featured prominently in them, but covid got in the way, and it just sat for the last few years...

I don't know any of you, but a long while back this place was a really great resource for learning, and hearing feedback. I'm just a hobbyist, but it was nice to read the thoughts of people working on things in a more serious capacity. I upgraded my camera recently, and started googling for...

I was just thinking about this recently. People who maybe would have been into guerilla filmmaking back then are just "content creators" now for very niche audiences, it seems to me anyway.

Why not start the story here, and have it occur off screen or in an obtainable location? Maybe he's on the phone with the antagonist who has his wife hostage, he knows swat is going to raid them, and we hear it happen over the phone from his end...it goes bad and he's forced to listen on the...

I'm thinking about picking one up on eBay, and I'm curious to hear your input. Is it impractical given the current crop of tools available? I like everything about it, I just wonder if going the 720p route when everything else is headed 4k might be me looking backwards a bit. The big seller...

http://www.flickr.com/photos/94006943@N05/10830422256/in/photostream/ In the black brick in the foreground, and in the roof beams of the dugout I noticed some faint vertical lines. When I went back and reviewed other footage on my computer I found that almost all of the underexposed areas or...

Hi all. I'm curious to get some input. I took this image at the highest jpeg quality my 7D will shoot, and now I am wondering where all the jaggies are coming from. The photo was taken with the Landscape setting and the 28mm 1.8 EF lens. I've taken about 5000 or so photo's with this camera and...

Hi, I'm looking to pick one up on ebay, but am curious...what would be considered low hours of usage, and what is the maximum number of hours a DVX100b could be used before I can expect it to need serviced? Thanks for your help!

I recently rented a canon 28mm 1.8, and shot some b/w low light tests. On previous tests with my 50mm 1.8 I saw little to no serious aliasing, but was blown away by the jagginess of the footage filmed with the 28mm. All camera settings other than the monochrome were according to hoyle...

My firmware is out of date, do I need to perform each firmware update to the most recent version or can I simply update to the latest version? Thanks for the help!

Please remove thread. Thank you!

I'm trying to decide which of these to order, and have no where nearby that stocks them. Since I can't check them in person I thought maybe someone here might be able to enlighten me to the differences between them. Thanks for reading, I'd appreciate any input you might have.

I have been doing research for the last year for a documentary project that I am hoping to begin filming this fall. It has recently been announced that a hollywood studio would be producing a fictional narrative version based on the historical events that I am hoping to cover in my documentary...

We are flying out to Germany on Monday and I am wondering what precautions I should take if any when transporting my camera. It will be my carry on so I am not too worried about it getting lost. What does concern me is the use of airport scanners...etc and thier effect on my memory cards or...
