I have done a little research but could not find this information. With the app for iOS or Android you are supposedly able to monitor. Are you able to monitor during recording through the wifi? If so, what resolution would you be able to monitor on the external device (phone, tablet, etc) at...

Wasn't sure if this was brought up here already (didn't find in search). Is there any word on when Redrock will be releasing it's EF to m4/3 aperture controller? I know Birger has an adapter coming out supposedly costing around $700. In this video (2/3 of the way in)...

I know about the Hot Rod PL mount but am not wanting to invest in a mount that costs over $1000. I have a lot of great rental houses here in NYC where I can get a hold of zeiss and cooke cinema lenses and am really wanting to start going that route for larger projects. Does anyone know of a...

I know about the Hot Rod mount, which is of course top of the line. Unfortunately, it also has a top of the line price tag at around $1000. I live in NYC and have access to a lot of great rental houses where I can get zeiss and cooke cinema lenses for pretty cheap. I am really wanting to go...

I have access to a bunch of Canon EF L series glass and I was wondering what the best EF to m4/3 adaptor (if there is a good one out). Considering there is no aperture ring, I assume I will need an adapter with an aperture ring??? I found this one on Ebay...

It has already been discussed how Premiere CS5 is optimized for dslr formats and uses the Mercury Engine to optimize Cuda enabled video card to really breeze through footage. Unfortunately only a handful of more expensive Cuda enabled Nvidia cards have been approved. I stumbled across this...

I read somewhere, but can not find now, that the GH2 uses a different battery from that of the GH1. Is this true? If this is true, I hope the GH2 batteries hold more life otherwise I really wouldn't see any point to that other than trying to scam more money out of buyers who already own GH1s.

Everyone, I run a small (but growing) online magazine off the bend that features articles on left of center art, culture and technology. We do a monthly spotlight and this month the spotlight is "The Art of Cheap". I have a just written up a simple article "The Art of Cheap - Filmmaking"...

I finally download the trial version of Cineform Neoscene to give it a test (a little late in the game on this, but have been editing in Vegas native with little problem till now). Does Cineform Neoscene export audio as well as video, if so, how is this done exactly? I can not seem to figure...

Over the past year I have acquired most all the gear that I will be needing (audio, rail system, FF, shoulder rig, tripod, slider, etc.) and this next year I am focusing on slowly buildup my lens collection. I currently have.... - Panny 20mm f1.7 - Panny 14-140 f.4 - Canon FD 50mm f.14 My...

I found this boom pole http://www.adorama.com/CISGPN323.html Wondering if anyone has experience with this? I was going to make one myself, but given that this one is <$50 for 7 foot pole, I figured I'd give it a try. Also, does anyone have any thoughts on DIY boom poles that might be...

I have decided to edit a larger documentary in Sony Vegas Pro 10. I have grown very accustom to the Vegas Pro work flow (which I find to be most intuitive of all the NLEs). Some Questions.... 1) I have always had issues with media management in Vegas Pro and kept it for only shorter less...

Is Vitaliy still working on the hack at all? He has not had any new thoughts, information or progress on the Official Hack Thread for 10 days now. I get the feeling we may be at the end of the rope and he is throwing in the towel in regards to the GH1. Hopefully he's just been busy or working...

I just put up a video review (done with one hand) of the Gh1 with the 20mm f1.7 Friction Follow Focus. I was apprehensive about purchasing a friction follow focus but trusted Ikan products and they have a 15 day return policy. I specifically went with this follow focus because I find that I...

So I am in need of a shotgun microphone to use with my H4n. Does anyone have any suggestions of a very low cost shotgun microphone that is decent to good? Thanks!

I was given a GH1 from a friend of mine to hack. The camera was bought last year with model # WE9HB001290, so I know if is definitely hackable. My question is... He has the camera with firmware ver. 1.2. Do I just download the firmware update from Panasonic's website with version 1.3 here...

I am wanting to purchase a viewfinder for my GH1 but am having difficulty choosing one as every model says is for 5D, 7D, T2i. I can't find one (reasonably priced) that states support of GH1. I was looking at this LCDviewfinder clone's here LINK. Any suggestions???

I figured I would make this it's own topic since these are the two most cost effective Follow Focus systems. Has anyone had any experience using either of the Indisystem's Indifocus Mini or the D|Focus ver. 3 with the Panasonic 20mm f.17 pancake. I talked to Tim at indisystems and he claims...

http://www.engadget.com/2010/09/03/panasonics-prototype-micro-four-thirds-3d-lens-and-body-arrive/ Everyone already knows about the 3D lens being made for the G series, but it seems to be on new body in this article (hence the covering up of labels with black tape). Supposedly this lens along...

Found this bit of information over at Gizmodo... http://gizmodo.com/5627362/panasonics-new-8gb-and-16gb-sdhc-cards-transfer-2x-faster Not sure what the price point is going to be (probably expensive) but if these are faster than the Sandisk one, might help to get an even more stable transfer...
