Hi all can anyone recommend a V-mount battery adapter plate that also has 12V outlet options. The one I was using by Smallrig https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1606755-REG/smallrig_2886_v_mount_battery_adapter_plate.html suddenly stopped working; there seems to be no overload protection...

Hi all i have a space available to me at no cost to record sit down interviews (oral history of the subject). This is the what the background looks like (I hate it but it what it is) - what would you suggest as far as dressing this space? TIA

Hi all when using a Giant Squid lav mic with a Rode wireless system, I get a weird interference which disappears the moment my hand either holds the mic cable or cups over the transmitter. Can anyone offer any suggestions as to why this is happening and how to eliminate the problem. TIA

Hi all, Tried syncing 3 cameras but have run into a problem. Camera's are a) Panasonic camcorder recording ProRes on Atomos recorder, Nikon recording ProRes on Atomos recorder and Sony A7 recording AVCHD internally. Each camera has mic attached and captured the sound of the slate just fine...

Hi all considering a Panasonic HC-X1 for school performance events; interested to hear from others if there is anything better at this price point that I should consider. Thanks for any input.

If you were travelling overseas as a one-man-band and wanted to shoot two camera interviews PLUS stills; what camera gear would you choose? I guess the same question applies to sound & lighting. cheers

Hi all I'm shooting long sit down interviews using two different cameras that each use the AVCHD format. For each camera I would like to: 1. Import full AVCHD .MTS spanned clips into Resolve, without re-wrapping or transcoding 2) combine spanned clips into one continuous file I will then...

Hi all shot an interview today using two camera's (Sony and Panasonic) When I import the AVCHD files into Davinci 14, I end up with multiple .mts files from each camera. How do I combine the Sony .mts files into one (and likewise for the Pany) so I can then align the two resulting files and...

Hi all have been given a Sennheiser ME67 microphone. When I position the mic in the Rode blimp; the mic tip is just a fraction back from the tip of the dome. Is this OK or will I run into problems?

Hi all I'm keen to hear from the audio experts on this forum about this comment "the fan sound is similar to an air conditioner, and consistent enough to remove with simple noise reduction software." It's a quote from a filmmaker reviewing an LED light that has a fan which he uses for...

I'm curious; a number of times I have suggested the Sling Studio might be a simple way of doing livestreaming but it doesn't get mentioned by others. I know it's wi-fi based, but reviews by the likes of Mr Cheeseycam suggest it's fine. The same was said about the Rode wireless and a DVX member...

Hi all just curious as to whether anyone uses dual system sound where the audio is captured to an external recorder and then fed into the AC-90 or whether the pre-amps are good enough not to warrant this approach? (or even if you capture audio to an external recorder and sync in post) cheers...

Hi All I'm a total noob so be warned. If I connect my Giant Squid lav to the 3.5mm input on the Tascam DR60(plug-in power), all works fine. However, if I connect via a VXLR adapter into either of the XLR inputs I get no sound. The input is set to "mic". Could anyone suggest what I'm doing...

Hi all I have a project where there are possibly multiple copies of the same source. This is obviously using up a lot of un-neccessary disk space. I think the editing is now finished (awaiting final OK from the client) What is the best way to delete un-used source media? cheers

Hi all shot some interviews on DSLR using seperate audio recorder for sound. Could someone please explain the organisational work flow to edit these in to one clip, using Premiere Pro/PluralEyes.(so, how to sync, use of "bins" etc etc) backstory; I worked on this with another shooter who said...

Hi all shot some interviews yesterday and had a major issue with the Tascam DR60; all the files were corrupted. All the files show as "zero" kb in size, yet the card shows over 1GB has been used. Managed to retrieve the files using data recovery software but they are un-usable. i tested the...

An engineer friend asked me "I am looking at undertaking a dilapidation survey (a record of the current condition) of roads adjacent an underground pipe construction project. One idea is driving a vehicle along the road with a camera mounted on the vehicle capturing a video of the roads. Then...

I was about to buy the Amaran 672 until a mate mentioned he was getting the VL-1144 Light. Twice as many LEDs for 1.5x the cost (in Aust, roughly $325 Amaran (with 3rd party batteries) V $450 for Promaster (no battery) Does anyone on these forums have any feedback re this light? What battery...
