I came across a nice film using the C500. "Man and Beast" is based on the real life story of Dr. Allan Rabinowitz. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hsa9Bcgx_k4&list=PL55D9FFAFFD546DAC&index=8 Ofcourse the animals used are captive. However, I loved the message. So inspiring that a man who used...

I have been filming with the C300 in India's forests. My film Leopards: The Last Stand is currently in production. I increased the scope a bit and am working on it again. I have released a sneek peek. http://youtu.be/n-Yc5VNUN-o The footage with C300 is marked with the text "C300 Footage"...

Squig, Sorry I don't know you real name. I am sharing a screen grab of BTS. This is with a Canon 1D Mark IV. Are you looking for this kind of lighting. This BTS is done while I am filming with a Canon C300.

From this screen grab you can see the way I have attached the microphone to the C300. I have used a Pearstone microphone holder. Though it is not parallel to the lens, it works.

I found a spot in the C300 in the C300 footage. When I use the LCD, I can see the spot as well. I tried to use all the ND (1, 2 and 3 stops) as well as without engaging the ND. The result is the same. I guess it would be in the internal clear filter. Unfortunately, I am in the field shooting in...

How many of you use external light meters while shooting with C300? Do you find the waveform monitor good enough for correct exposures or do you use external meters?

Since many rig manufacturers are here as well as people who are already using C300, so I would like to ask this question. I am looking for a rig to use the C300 along with my long lenses (Canon EF 400mm f2.8 L IS USM) as well as other lenses. I will be using it for wildlife. I don't want the...

1D C codec. Is it ok for BBC/NGC? If I use the 1D C as a main camera whether it would be approved by BBC or not is a question I am grappling with. I can only buy either the C300 or the 1D C. The 1D C will be a bit better on the finances as it is likely to be cheaper. However, it is likely to be...

Dear all, I am finding that filming from a boat is becoming a big challenge. Especially when it is a large motor launch. When I sight a large crocodile on the banks, it becomes difficult to get it steady. In the current, the motor launch driver is not willing to switch off and the vibrations are...

Sharing a trailer embedded in an article. I filmed this trailer "A God in Distress" about wild elephants in India with my Canon EOS 1D Mark IV. Please check this link: http://www.indiawilds.com/diary/wild-india-elephant-attacks/ This is part of my long term project. Since I am new to editing...

How many of you will buy the 1D C with its present level of specs if it is offered at 10K USD?

Sharing an image clicked in the wilds of India. She was my favourite tigress, and I used to track her every year. Photographed in Bandhavgarh Tiger Reserve, India.
