Hi, all! Anyone care to jump into the wayback machine and talk about bags or cases for the Sony Z150? I just picked one up for a backup cam but it did not include a case. I can look at B&H and see which cases they say are compatible with the Z150 but I'm looking for personal experience. For...

Hi! I recently came across the Small Rig Tripods. I'm really just in the market for the legs and of course would prefer carbon fiber. The Small Rig looks to be a reasonable price and their other products work well. Anyone with personal experience with their tripods? THANKS! Rob

Hi! I'm looking for thoughts on which should be the next lens I buy. Anybody wanna play? Thanks! Just prior to COVID I was "semi-retired", taking the occasional freelance gig. After COVID that turned into "mostly retired"... until the last year. Starting in about May I was receiving calls from...

Hi, folks! I have a friend I'm trying to help out in buying a new camera for his projects. He is currently using a couple of old Sony HVR-HD1000 camcorders. They are HDV format and shoot to tape. He has a VERY LOW budget, so my early recommendations to him for the Z150, FS5 (which I use) or...

I'm asking about lights here in the audio forum because I want to hear audio people's experiences with the fans in some of the lights on the market these days. Most of the reviews mention fan noise but I am not sure of the experience of the people doing the reviews. I would like to hear what...

Hi! I will be renting a Sony 100-400mm G master lens soon to use with my FS5. I know that long term it would be good to have rails and lens support but could I get away with shooting for a day without lens support for this lens? I've shot with the 70-300mm and it is light enough to not be a...

Hi folks! I have a friend/client that is trying to hook up some gear and has asked me for help. An additional hurdle is that I am trying to help him from afar without being able to put my hands on his equipment. I can help him with many things, but one I am not sure about is his set up from...

So I am thinking about a 70-200mm lens for my C100. I would love to hear thoughts about the differences between the version that only goes to f4 vs. f2.8. The f4 is of course less expensive. Also with shooting video I assume the Image Stabilization becomes more important than with stills...

Hi, all. I am in the process of trying to decide how to continue in the business as my career winds down. Like many of you, through the years I have done a little bit of everything - shooting, lighting, editing, graphics, and audio. Last year I left my full time job and "semi-retired", planning...

OK, here's my intro. I'm a semi-retired production person. I spent many years running my own small production company, starting with events, but moving quickly into the corporate arena. I've produced a number of promotional and training videos for companies ranging from "Mom & Pop's" to...
