Quietly Aladdin have put a new 1x1 flexible panel on their site. They have increased power to 70W which is very welcome. I have an Aladdin 1x2 and it's one of the best light panels I've ever used so I'm hoping the increased power on this 1x1 can be a good complement.

I just want to warn others to NOT purchase anything from the dealer nae.se
Got an acceptable price and gave them a go for the order. Upon delivery one of two add-ons were missing. I emailed the seller but didn't get a response for a week. Contacting another seller I finally got a response that...
Great little camera but with the same A7RII sensor.

I would never use a LED source without diffuser as it's to harsh on the subject. If something really soft is needed from a small source bouncing is the way to go.
The year of 2016 has certainly been a very interesting year. Both in the jobs I've done but also the hardware that has passed and stayed. Most certainly the input from other dvxusers have had an influence on my purchases.
Purchased the tiny Sony RX100 IV and sold it.
Purchased the beautiful...
Many cameras these days doesn't need much light to look okay and if hard and ugly shadows can be avoided a boost in post to bring up levels might give a better result than dealing with unflattering direct light. I suggest you set it up in the room and experiment if possible.
If it were me I'd...
Bounce your LED panels on a larger surface. Either a wall or a white reflector so that all light hitting your talent are bounced light. The larger the bounce surface is the smoother shadows will be. Create a good ambient light in the room without any direct light.
I've been experienced a lot of interference with my Sennheiser EW G3 system on my FS7 and finally narrowed it down to something surprising.
As I have two G3 systems and I've made a special cable to fit my FS7 rig it took some testing to find out what was going in. First I figured it must be my...

I see that there are versions of Sennheiser EW system with the different frequencies with an X at the end. Like g-x or e-x. Then I see there are version without the X at the end. Anyone know what the difference is?
I'm looking at adding a hard focusable fixture to my set of Aladdin Bi-Flex panels and the DLED7 looks really nice. It's not to large and with plenty of power plus it's a Dedo. Anyone got their hands on them yet?
I have two Aladdin Bi-Flex 50 and like them very much but am looking at the larger and more powerful 1x2 flex panels from Westcott and Aladdin. Everytime I use the Aladdin panels they work so great and have such a nice light quality so the idea of having almost twice the power and larger...
I've used Sennheiser EW100 G3 systems for many years now and often these have been with the included ME2 microphone but these last years I've been using the better MKE 2 Gold microphones. I'm really satisfied with these.
Now the thing is I have a client where I have to use their equipment and...

I've been on Avid MC fourteen years editing each day but switched to Premiere in these last five-six years. Working with S-log3 in Premiere Pro CC2014 is a breeze and it looks really nice. Now I wanted to fresh up on my Avid editing so I started to do what I do in Premiere but in Avid MC8...
