I'm doing a show for The National Geographic Channel this summer and I'm hoping to use the HPX500. I have a Red on the way but I'd rather go with a reliable and tested camera package for most the this shoot. These are the tech specs they require for 720p cameras. I think the HPX500 satisfies...

I'm editing DVCPRO HD shot on P2 in FCP. This is for an interactive project to be shown on a 30" HD monitor, but the video needs to play in a program developed on a PC and utilizing Flash video. I tried delivering my DVCPRO HD Quicktime files to the programmer but he can't work with them on...

We all got the great news re. Final Cut Studio 2, and for those of us who've literally waited YEARS to move from our Powerbooks to the desktops, it's time to take the plunge. I currently have a HVX200 but I'll probably own a RED w/in the next two years. I'm willing spend more now so I don't...

Yes- I made a film about the mongolian marmot. It's my thesis film and it was just me, my girlfriend and my HVX. I shot in 720/24PN. I thought I'd make a trailer while I wait for the translation of all the interview to be finished. There are also a couple shots from old films about marmots...

Lately, I've been doing a lot more color correction in post with tools like Magic Bullet Editor. They suggest that you shoot everything 'Normal' in camera so you have the most color info. available when working with their 'filters' (like deacons did in "O Bother, Where Art Thou') . This brings...

I'm trying to speed up a time-lapse that I shot using the interval function on my HVX. I shot 1 frame every ten seconds in 720/60p. I have the footage in a 720/24p sequence in FCP (because I'm editing it with normal speed footage shot at 720/24PN). When I try to make my time-lapse faster by...

I bought these for a long shoot in remote locations but it didn't arrive in time so I never used it. $800 includes UPS ground shipping. (if you want if faster you can add additional shipping costs) You save over $120! (It comes with the original tie down cap.) -Tom

I bought these for a long shoot in remote locations but it didn't arrive in time so I never used it. I am selling it for what I bought it for: $899 plus shipping (you decide how quickly you want it) It's sold out at B&H and Abel, so if you need right now this is your chance. (It comes with the...

I'm in Mongolia working on a project and I have access to some old 16/35mm communist propoganda films for my project. I want to capture the footage with my HVX, what's the best method? Should I project onto a screen and shoot or simply direct the film projector right into the lens? Any advice...

Bebob Engineering FOCUS IRIS/ZOOM CONTROL f/HVX-200: I am selling both the Bebop follow-focus/iris remote wheel and the zoom controller as described here: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=productlist&A=details&Q=&sku=433882&is=REG&addedTroughType=search Both HAVE NEVER BEEN...

Discovery requires I deliver footage shot on my P2 (720/24PN) on tape. What is the best way to do this w/out generation loss? Anyone know of a post house that will provide this service? Their rates?

I'm going to shoot a segment for Discovery HD with my HVX. The rest of the show was shot on the Sony F900 in 23.98 and it's being edited on an Avid Adrenaline. I'm not Avid savvy, so I'm wondering if I can shoot in 24PN and it will be manageable in post (Discovery is fine with mixing 720p and...

I am shooting a project on both Super16 and the HVX (shooting in 720PN). Any suggestions on where I can get a good/resonably priced 720p DVCPRO HD telecine. My goal is to be able to work with the two formatts in the same FCP timeline w/out needing to render one or the other. thanks

I want to get a shoulder mount/stabalizer for my HVX and based on research I've found the DvRigPro to be the best option. I'm not a fan of the focus and iris control on the camera so I want a device with handles to mount both a remote zoom and a focus/iris controls. I also want something that...

I just shot a piece in 1080i on my HVX. I want the HD footage for future use, but for my immediate uses it's going onto an SD DVD. I brought the footage into a NTSC SD timeline in FCP5 and let it render but I'm seeing interlacing artifacts on the render. Is this not a viable option for...
