Hi guys, So I'm having a bit of trouble with a project I just directed. I shot almost everything at 59.94fps. Thinking the video files would play back at 59.94fps. I do this for most of my projects. I bring them onto a 23.976fps timeline. This way if a certain scene isn't long enough I have...

Hey guys. So I have a project coming up the client wants shots that requires the camera to be moving through floors in a house. For example camera is facing straight and lowered to the ground, looks like it's going through the floor then comes out of the ceiling in the room below. I've seen how...

So I recently shot a short doc in Japan with my a7sii and am now editing. I usually shoot everything in slog2. But whenever I was shooting indoors in dark places I would use picture profile 5 I think which kind of looks like a typical rec709 contrasty look. I'm noticing now after reviewing the...

Howdy, Video I recently directed came out today. Would love some feedback on what you like and don't like about it. Just like with everything I direct, SO many things went wrong on shoot day but did my best to make do with what was available. Definitely one of the hardest projects I've done...

Hi all, So I have a hefty project I'm working on. It was shot in 4k on the alexa mini in prores 4444. I edited everything in Premiere and I'm guna color it in davinci resolve. There's a TON of small specific things I did in the premiere edit like scaling in shots, re framing, nesting and warp...

Howdy everyone. A music video I directed, shot and edited was recently released. I would love to get some feedback from everyone here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RMRVU-ZXN6o&t=65s To be honest most people are more stoked on it than I am. Just like every project I direct, EVERYTHING went...

So I recently directed, shot and edited this music video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-XIxKhycLrE Would love to get some feedback and constructive criticism on everything including image, coloring, cinematography, pacing and whatever you can think of. I'll give a little background: Shot on...

So I recently shot an event with my fs700 in combo with the Odyssey 7q for the first time. I hated dialing stuff into the Odyssey and how it worked. But when I saw the footage I was blown away. I have an a7sii and now I'm wondering what the Odyssey 7q is capable of with that camera. Has anyone...

Hi all. So I booked an fs7 rental for a shoot coming up in a few days. It wont be arriving until the day of the shoot so no time at all to do tests or get used to it. Ive shot on the fs700 and fs5 before so I'm hoping it wont be too different to operate from that. Was hoping you guys could...

Hi there, Recently finished up a music video that I directed. Would love to get some feedback, positive and negative. Was shot on the sony FS5 mostly with some A7s and FS7 sprinkled in there. I directed, shot, edited and colored everything. I was working with a very small budget, and...

So I lost my shotgun mic clip/cradle whatever it's called for my FS700 ages ago. I've been duct taping it to the handle bar ever since... and it sucks haha. I need a new one or something that will work the same and that's affordable. Does anyone know where I can get something like this?

Hi all, So I do a lot of touring. And I shoot a lot of shows, do tour documentaries and what not. And if you've ever toured then you know the struggle of a lot of smaller clubs and venues having terrible-to-no lighting on stage. I've never really shot with anything other than slog2. But it's...

Hi all, So up until now my workflow has always consisted of doing all my editing in Premiere Pro, then I export the video to an uncompressed codec like AVI lossless or prores, import into Davinci Resolve and do all my coloring there. I always somehow felt like that's not the best way to go...

I rented the FS5 a few weeks ago for the first time. Loved shooting with it. I am now however going through the footage and seems as though everything I shot in slowmo (60fps or more) has these awful flickering images all over. I uploaded an example for you to see what I'm talking about...

Hi all, So I rented the FS5 for the first time for a project this week. I shot everything XAVC 1080p. I'm trying to import the clips into Premiere Pro (i'm using CS6). But when I try to do so a box pops up saying "The importer reported a generic error". No idea why it won't read the footage...

Hi. I'm on set. Rented the fs5. Shooting in slog3. Can't figure out how to set a custom white balance. Can't find anything on the internet. With my fs700 I would just point the camera at a light source or a card and hit the custom WB button. Everything seems the same on this camera except...

I just noticed today that on my LCD display of my fs700 there's no more white balance reader on the bottom right. I tried toggling the switch on the right side of the camera and pushing the custom white balance button but nothing happens. Any idea what's going on or how to fix this? I'm on an...

Rather urgent. I have a project I'm shooting in less than a week and I'm renting an FS5 and using my FS700 for several shots. I have a metabones speedbooster for my FS700, will I be able to use it on the FS5? Or do they have different mounts?From what I've read online they have the same mount so...

No idea if this is in the right section or not but I couldn't find any where it seemed right. Anyway, I'm trying to prep a music video that has been a nightmare so far mainly due to timing and budget constraints (when is there not ><). I need to shoot a performance with 4 musicians in a big...
