I know this is probably a dumb question, but why isn't there an easy way to losslessly convert 24p in a 60i stream to regular AVCHD 24p, and STILL have it be AVCHD--I mean, shouldn't it be possible to just ditch the extra frames, and have a slightly smaller file that would mirror exactly what is...

My mini review of this budget monitor Verdict: Nice! http://www.personal-view.com/talks/discussion/comment/29503#Comment_29503

Is it worth the $$$? Maybe :) Wide open it is sharper, at 2.8 there is some difference, at F4 I can't see a difference. It is a beautiful lens, but I will keep my others as well. ISO 800 F/2.8 Vivitar 55mm, Rokkor 50mm F/1.4, Olympus 45mm Cinemode -1 0 0 -1 No processing of any kind. Vivitar...

A music video from the Purcell Project mixing GH2 and GH13 footage with Vixia HF10. Microphones: Sennheiser MKH 40 main pair and Schoeps MK21 flankers.

Update: This is the tested version of my Concert and event patch. I'm starting this thread for people who are interested in a high quality, 24p, stable patch for events such as weddings, concerts, theater, poetry readings, lectures and so on. And pub crawls. Maybe impossible, but progress...

This is a an excerpt from a live event. I'm thinking of upgrading my three HF10s, but they still work pretty good. Sound is from a single pair of Sennheiser MKH 40s onto a Fostex FR2LE

Sorry if this is a ridiculous question. I lent the GH2 out, and the video that came back was taken using the red IA Automatic mode instead of the movie mode. I realize most people never use this button. I have only shot 24p, so I have no idea what the video is. Video info says "29.97". Am I...

Well, I hauled out the Sigma 75-300 zoom which I purchased on eBay for $15 some time ago, and bolted it onto the GH2. Fired up ETC mode, holy cow! That's all I can say. I may have to get a super super zoom like the Tamron 18-270. ETC is amazing. The 75-300 can be found cheap as "Quantaray...

The Bach Concerto for Two Violins, Filmed from the Balcony http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GzTwO0zWrqU&hd=1 My usual problems white balancing under spotlights, but great music

I'm looking for a smoother tripod--and the Fancier WF717 is on my list--I notice they also have on Amazon the "Dual Head" model for the same price. Is there advantage to two heads? Are two heads better than one...

For those of us who are waiting around to buy a GH2, is there any point in waiting for these new Canon Pro CMOS based cams based on the XF100 that supposedly go down to 1.5 Lux, and use larger pixels? The cheapest model with that sensor lists for $650. "The sensor and bitrate specs on the XA10...

NB Due to the slow response, I will relist this cam in a few weeks (early February). In the meantime, I will enjoy the hack! Hacked GH1 GH13 Mint with all original accessories *includes* FedEx Ground shipping insured. Includes original accessories and the original box, software,battery...

Hi--This is the lens from the kit GH1. It is optically and mechanically perfect, and has been used only once. Comes with original caps. Mixed feelings about selling it, but I have a lot of old primes, and I'd like to buy another camera to go with my old glass. Built in IS works great and you...

Recently, I purchased some CFL (Compact Fluorescent) Lights for studio use. Because I am picky about the audio quality of my work, I wanted something that made little or no noise. I knew that silent bulbs were possible because I had purchased a completely silent fixture from Home depot for the...
