I am going to assume as an old Cortina, it is normally aspirated. Try the air intake as an optimum location. The roar of air is a good measure of the work the engine is doing, without all the clatter and racket of the exhaust. Instead of thinking "just put a mic in the engine bay" start at the...

It has all the elements. If you are anything like me you were already having "next time" images clouding your mind the instant you sent it on its way.

The Liam Neeson film, I watched maybe 6 months ago. It was OK and was a change of style and pace. I liked the matter of fact ending which didn't fit what Hollywood would demand but was certainly plausible; so were most of the characters. I am a sucker for the scenery. When I stayed at a cottage...

It looks like you have a feel for the sport too. What I was liking was the very subtle zoom in on many sections; and not afraid to target the lower half of the bikes to show what's going on down there. I shoot a sport called Watercross which is also loud and messy. I like the challenge of...

Nice resource there! I looked around thinking there MUST be a fee for at least some of these but apparently not according to the terms of use page.

"Not an expert." Just my lay opinion. I bought one about 2 or 3 years ago, just in time to stare at it at home while COVID-19 pooped on my aspirations. I rarely use it because a lot of where I shoot that pays is the same one or two indoor places and conditions. However when I am in new indoor...

I signed up here in November 2020 because I immediately noticed the tone of conversation and the general membership was professional. I mostly stay silent as I 'watch and learn' from the discussions between members who are obviously serious about this vocation/profession. Now for my alternative...

For years I've been recording musicians live at small clubs, cafes and I let the camera/cameras run plus my main audio will be recorded on a Tascam unit fed by my own microphones placed to suit. The cameras get their audio from the Tascam eg. DR60, DR70D, so when I punch in tone (use the...

I assembled some very brief clips as illustrations of how I've gone about capturing and presenting low to no budget food enterprises. They were incidental things I did while employed doing other tasks. I'd done commercial work long before this but I was starting over because I got the itch to...

The FDR-AX700 doesn't have any options for codecs. I haven't tinkered with settings. My most recent clips are audible on my Win7 with any suitable program, but that's not my editing PC. My editing PC has nothing that will emit sound from these clips even though the level graphs are animated. I...

When I assisted at sessions to shoot office portrait photos, ie. the 8x10s you'd see in the reception area for example, the photographer would seat the person and check in the viewfinder for excessive shine. If it called for it he would go for a small tin of what looked to me like a compressed...

I understand the FDR-AX700 and siblings are not for shooters needing short depth of field. If I'm asked to shoot an interview with that effect then I would like to know any and all avenues to achieve it. Recently I have found several sites with product descriptions that put "built in ND filters"...

My reasoning for a tripod kit that's realistic to my situation and purposes keeps coming back full circle to this Ikan - E-Image EG06C2 2-Stage Carbon Fiber Tripod w/GH06 Fluid Head. That being the case, I wouldn't mind keeping my eyes open for any price dip that came along between now and...

Nice and clear visually in the way you step through things. The pacing is about to where if on a grumpy day I think it's going too quickly, I can always hit pause and back up. I do that a lot anyway. Thank you, thank you, thank you for not inserting any music background. It's a tutorial - all of...

Today on launching Catalyst Browse I got a notice that a newer version was available: 2020.1.0.xxxx. The version notes said it now was better at supporting XAVC-S so I'm all in. (Sony FDR-AX700 - shooting in 4K XAVC-S). Now the program freezes at every turn; browsing, previewing, etc. "Not...

I am a techie/artsy hybrid who leans towards profiling creative people. Usually I know them before hand as friends and creators. The sound and imagery comes second or third in priority of our relationships. To up my game in mini-documentaries and portfolios I got a Sony FDR-AX700. I'm getting...
