I believe I have discovered a bug with the newest Canon R5C camera when used in conjunction with the BG-R10 battery grip. Occasionally the camera will fail to turn on. This is a very sporadic issue and rarely happens, but when it does it is disconcerting. When this issue occurs, the only way I...

So I've been looking at the Atlas B Series anamorphic lenses. I have a C300 III and Canon includes a 2x and 1.3x desqueeze for anamorphic lenses on that camera. However, I recently read on Wolfcrow's website that the C300 III cannot do true anamorphic due to the smaller sensor height. He states...

I am about to purchase an Inovativ Evo cart and I can't decide between the 36" or the 30" cart size. 30" is the smallest cart size that Inovativ makes. Proaim makes a 32". Does anyone here own a 30" camera cart? And if so, what do you think about a cart that size? I really like the small form...

So the C300 III did not come with an AC power cable, nor do I see one for sale by Canon anywhere. Does anyone know what cable to use to power the C300 III from the wall? I don't want to pick the wrong power adapter and fry the camera. And I can't seem to find any info about this on Canon's website.

Does anyone here own a new Miller Cinx tripod head? I am confused about one of Miller’s stated features, the “smooth start and soft stop technology with balanced diagonal transitions.” My friend’s O’Connor tripod head will let you change the resistance level on the fly while doing a quick pan...

What are people getting as far as real world battery life on their Astera Titans when run at 100%? I hear some people say 4 hours, some people say that after a bit of use they're getting more like 2-3 hours. One friend said they get 7 hours at 75%. Just curious what different owners are seeing.

Just curious, what stands are people using for their 1x2 panels? I realize there are a variety of panels out there with different weights/sizes, and a variety of shooting scenarios. What stand do you use the most for your 1x2 (Gemini, Skypanel, Lupo, Luxli)? Juniors, Baby Jrs, Hollywood...

Does anyone here have the Lupo Superpanel 60 Dual Color? I am specifically interested in this light due to it's output. For most of my generic corporate shoots over the years I've generally went with 1 of 2 setups for my key. I either rent a Skypanel S60 and throw a 4x6 chimera on the front, or...

I've been eyeing the Flowtech 100 legs for a while, but after reading a single review on BH's product page, it has me second guessing them. In it the user writes: "Had one for the last week. The legs do not drop free when you release the red clamps, and must be physically pulled down and...

Does anyone own the Nanlite Forza 500 and the Aputure Spotlight attachment? I would like to know if it will fit on the Forza 500. I know the Forza uses a Bowen-S mount, but the LED housing protrudes a bit farther than it does on the Aputure 300D II & the 120D II.

Does anyone have any experience with one of the Canon BPA knockoff batteries that have the P-Tap? There's the Core SWX C98wh and the SWIT 73Wh . Newshooter did a review about 4 months ago on the Core-SWX Nano-C98. They used it on a C200 and stated that the one downside was that the camera would...

So I finally got to shoot with the C500 II all day. The camera shoots gorgeous images and that experience makes me want one pretty bad. That being said, I think my biggest issue with the camera are the outputs. It was only my first time to use it, but Canon really needs to work out their output...

Hi there. We're doing camera prep for a shoot tomorrow with my friend's C500 II. He just got his rear EVF attachment in the mail today and it doesn't seem to be working. Is there a setting that needs to be activated to get the camera to acknowledge the rear EVF? The EVF settings in the Canon...

I'm going to be grabbing up some RGB tube lights soon to add to my kit. I've only ever used 4' tubes but I've seen some comments on B&H from users that wished they'd purchased 2' tubes instead of 4' ones, just due to ease of travel and being able to stick them into more spaces. I could see that...

This is a question for all the C500 II and the Amira owners out there. Any idea how much the Arri Amira weighs, with a short/compact 98wh battery and the EF mount installed vs the C500 II with the touchscreen LCD, rear EVF and the BP-A60 installed? And would the Amira get roughly the same...

I'm looking to get a lightweight 1x3 flexible bi-color panel and have narrowed it down to these 3 panels. I was wondering if anyone has experience with them. It's odd, but these manufacturers don't want to post the total weight of their complete kits (panel, ballast, dimmer, cords). The just...

Starting this thread to make requests for the next version of the Canon Raw Development software and other software based tools for dealing with Canon Raw and Canon Raw Light. After using the C200 for a month now, there are definitely issues in dealing with the Raw codec in post that need to...

Has anyone purchased a Lupo Superpanel LED light? If so, what are your opinions of it? I'm amazed at what little information there is out there. Newsshooter did a pretty good review of the light last October. Based on their findings it seems like it is the best LED panel on the market for the...
