Hey eveyone, It has been a long time since I have posted, however, I have returned to seek some advice from the great dvxuser community! I am working on a feature length film at Ohio University and we are looking into renting a camera package. We would love to shoot RED, however, that is a...

Hey everyone. Somehow I managed to send an OMF with the correct settings (23.976FPS, 16 bit, 48kHz) and a PAL (25fps) video to an outsource audio source. The Outsource audio guy used a 25 FPS timeline to edit the audio, and he has done quite a bit. It has taken me until just now to figure it...

Hey so I have this exported QT file the burn-in is different than the actual time displayed by quick-time. The footage is 23.976, and playing back at 23.976, but the burinin is significantly slower by a few seconds at the end of the film. The QT reads 1:47:26 and the burn reads 1:47:20...

Hey guys, Just wondered what everyone's opnions for a starter lens set are? Minolta was some of the best glass in the 70's and 80's, but Nikon seems to have taken that market. Thoughts?

His bank account is over the edge... So is he. Check it out! I'm pretty proud for the cost of production.

Hey, Is there any kind of expression that I can write that will only play every nth frame. I am trying to make a time-lapse out of footage that is an hour long. I don't want to just speed up the footage though. I would do this on my HVX if it was not broken in Michigan... waiting for the...

Hey have we heard any word on if there is going to be a major update, or has Apple left us high and dry? Adobe is really going all into this market, I feel like Apple should be planning something big...

Hey guys, Our group is shooting a burning trailer this weekend with 2 adapted hvxs and two non adapted ones. What are some things to be aware of with the light of a fire and a lens adapter (I'm not completely sure which adapter). We only have a half hour for somewhere in the range of 40 shots...

Hey guys, First let me apologize for posting an ebay link... I just can't find this anywhere else. Here is the situation. We are shooting a feature film on a budget that is not very friendly to the camera department as much of our equipment is graciously donated or loaned. We have an HD...

Hey guys, I do not own an adapter yet, but I do own a Nikon D80. I love to shoot still photos, and I am saving to buy a Letus with the Nikon mount. Anyway, I am looking for a descent 50mm lens. I would love something like a Zeiss, but that's a little out of the price range right now. I was...

Hey guys, Shooting with a variety of HMI, Tungstens, Fluorescents. I was wondering if there is an issue in shooting in cold weather. We are looking at temperatures around 6 degrees. Will it damage the lamp. Should I take extra precautions? Thoughts/Suggestions? Thanks

Hey guys, I have heard some stories that using the protect tab too many times (every time there is an offload) will eventually render the card useless - is there any truth to the tale. Am I good to protect the card during an offload? Thank.

Ok, So I know there is no magical adapter that can change my analog signal to digital, but I was hoping someone may be able to help me get a cheap method of getting signal to my monitor. The HVX obviously outputs the analog, and I have a Marshall V-R70P (HD/SDI) monitor that my friend has...

Hey guys, I have done a lot of search on the site for this, originally to find out if you could do HD live to FCP (:Drogar-Dum(DBG):), but then I realized I need a longer than 3ft cable if I want to make this happen. What is the max length if I am recording 720p/24p - not Native (learned that...

Hey guys, I had a few quick questions. I have a shoot coming up where I will be shooting through a car windshield (outside --> in) and I was thinking that a Polarized Filter would help to reduce glare. Would I be correct? Also, how many filters can I get on the Lens w/o a vignette? Finally...

Hey just wondering if anyone has had any experience with these. I would like to use the HVX200 (no accessories just base unit) on one of these and wanted to know if they were legit. http://www.proamcranes.com/shop/home.php Thanks.

Hey, just wondering what the cheapest jib I can get is that will support the weight of my HVX. Ok I know there are going to be a lot of things like do you want it to be a motorized head or what not. I just need a basic one maybe 7'. Allow it to tilt maybe? Just looking for some advice...

Hey everyone, My organization I work for at Ohio University is a video production group called Athens Video Works Productions (http://www.avwproductions.com). We have been using the Brightcove console for some time now, until they released the fact that they were no longer offering the free...
