How would I go about attaching this anamorphic to varying front thread size lenses? Would I need to get Cordvision fronts for my lenses to unify the thread size and then get a clamp for the Kowa 16H that matches that? Logically that sounds about right, but I'm new to anamorphic - want to know...

This prevents me from purchasing a cage system. I've been thinking about buying the Walimex Universal set but can't test this in any shop since it's not carried in any camera store near me, and by looking at pictures and videos I can't really tell if it will really work together with the SB. As...

Hi guys, got my GH4 last week...went on two shoots where I shot indoors but with relatively good lighting. Didn't go over 800 on the first shoot, and on second, kept my ISO at 400. All lenses are 2.8s + Speedbooster, which I think brought my aperture to 1.8... Picture profile was Cine V on...

I'll keep this brief and to the point. Got in touch with someone who's looking for help because his clientele seems to be growing and he has to turn down gigs at this point. He shoots everything from events like luncheons to weddings. I was already on one of these shoots. I've never...

I haven't freelanced before but tomorrow I'm meeting with a person who's basically asking me to edit one of those wedding videos where everyone says a little something to the bride/groom. There's music involved, about two music tracks that the client wants to be included and photos of the...

Let me just say that I think I know the answer to this through just some research I've already done but I still want to hear some responses and comments on this. Short answer: DSLR use is a NO for majority of broadcast standards except for small bits and pieces to be used within a project...

Thinking of investing into this to use for both studio and location work - mainly location, but don't know much about them. Looking at filmtools, the Chimera seems to be the industry standard though. My concern is how would I power this on location when I need to be mobile - on a boom pole. They...

I'm looking for a quality baseplate / support system that can support a follow focus for Zeiss Contax lenses. I've been looking into the Zacuto DSLR plate but I don't know of anything else. Does anybody have experience using Contax glass on GH4 with Speedbooster and a support system that fits...

I've been working for this extremely small, independent (and highly incompetent) production company for 9 months. This week, or precisely the past 24 hours have been the most depressing hours of my life not just there but in a while. It's a startup that tries to be a production company / NEWS...

I hear these vintage lenses, the "RTS" Yashica mount line are a good investment. Would they work with a Speedbooster? If so, which adapter do I need to get? Also, if I wanted to use a Sigma Canon EF mount lenses on my GH4 then this means I'd need to own two speedbooster adapters. A Canon EF to...

So First thing's first... I'm new to the Micro Four Thirds camera system and would like advice on its lenses in these 3 focal lengths. I am not a noob when it comes to video work - which is primarily what I'll be using the camera and the lenses for , but I am a noob in the 4/3ds system as far as...

Can any AE guru explain how you can do this in post? A bit of blur and chromatic aberration around the edges and more examples here http://i46.fastpic.ru/big/2012/1103/70/ad32ec52e7a94ae5007132264015b070.png http://i46.fastpic.ru/big/2012/1103/b0/d6cfea4d67e9d03d16a70250063d31b0.png...

Is there a cheap rig I can get for a Canon T2i ? I've done some of my own digging but it seems like they all go for about 300+ bucks? Is there anything cheaper than that? Maybe I'm reaching here but is there anything that goes for about a $100? or is that unrealistic? I'm also willing to try...

Guys, I've ran into an issue, and I want to get it right. I have a video with a resolution of 720 x 304 - standard 2:35.1 anamorphic and I've imported it to Premiere Pro, I want to export it in the same resolution and aspect ratio, anamorphic. How do I go about doing that the right way? Here's...

Hey all, does anybody have any idea how this is created? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTtpFmgBmTI - 0:28 http://vimeo.com/2663191 - 1:00 http://vimeo.com/19302305 - 0:14-16, 0:25 - and throughout the clip. The first two videos, I'm guessing it's a glass object distorting the lens...

what kind of a ring/adapter do I need to buy to use this on a T2i?

For the past year, watching a ton of videos of Vimeo, I've noticed this particular kind of a motion effect "gimmick", so to speak - and I'd like to jump on that bandwagon, without any experience of doing motion graphics of THAT kind. All I have is a fierce will and utmost motivation to studying...

Hi, I keep seeing this effect that's quite popular in ads, and trailers and I'd like to know how to achieve it - whether there is a tutorial on this or something close to it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vpzUCA5i6zY @ 0;36 mark. One thing I'm certain of is that Optical Flares plug in is...

I spent a whole month editing this. I personally like it. It was fulfilling once I put down the finishing touches and watch it. Just a suggestion for viewing: don't blink :) Hope you enjoy http://vimeo.com/16352236
