I've used various programs for offloading in the past but none really made me feel any more secure than copying by hand.
Might invest in Hedge at some point though. Looks great. Just been Netflix certified too.
So ND 1/4 is cutting 2 stops.
Essentially making base ISO 800/0Db the same exposure as ISO 200 or -12B.
I think.
Or to put it more accurately - http://www.designimage.co.uk/converting-between-gain-and-f-stops/
Been a while but fingers crossed I still remember all this stuff.
There's a few ways of referring to ND strength.
1/4 is 2 stops of ND or 0.6
1/8 is 4 stops of ND or 1.2
6db gain is a doubling of ISO so at base 800 0db +6db is 1600iso.
A doubling of ISO is the equivalent to increasing...
Yep have used all 3 extensively. All great for different things.
Leica Rs great for skintones and have a naturally warmer tone with a lovely rendition.
Contax Zeiss sharp as you like with the standouts in the range capable of stunning imagery but can also be soft and organic if you treat...

Sad to hear about the WC mount twisting. It has a shoe support too doesn't it? Maybe a rod mounted lens support from underneath as well would cure it.

That's pretty much their purpose yes.
Another simple way to change the centre of gravity if you don't want the added weight/space that a long Arri plate takes is with rails based battery plate. Or even those Zacuto Gripper batteries.
That said for the FX6 because it is so light there is a...
