At the blackmagic creative presentation in Miami. Yeah i think we're still months away from the ursa mini shipping from the way they talk

Does anyone know if there will be an expo this fall in Pasadena ca? Their website still says 2014.

There was alot to look at this year. I hadn't been to NAB in about 7 years. After hearing how the economy had effected attendance in some recent years, I can say it sure didn't seem to be an issue this year. The place was packed and I think every electronics manufacturer was represented this...

I just saw the new TV ad for Samsung ultra hd televisions. Twice they say in the ad that it's "four times the resolution of HD" Did I miss something? Is it 8K? I keep hearing people refer to 4k as "four times" the resolution of HD and its not. So we are leapfroging over 4k and heading...

I'm looking into an inexpensive monitoring solution to use with my Nikon D800 DSLR while shooting video. I've seen alot online about the Zacuto, which is around $1000 us. Has anyone here had any experience with the IndiPro Tools EFV ...

I've always thought Edius was much faster to use than Premiere, just not as many bells and whistles. With the CC now turning so many off to Adobe, I wonder if many will see Edius is a good purchase option (as well as Vegas and Final Cut X, cough cough). It's not so popular in the US (used to...

I'm surprised Panasonic did not announce any type of cinema cameras. Just broadcast stuff and a sequel to the Varicam? That's it?? No successor or direct competitor to the BMC or even a high end 4k cinema cam? I guess they feel the AF100 is good enough to compete for yet another year. What...

Probably not the forum for this but thought I would see if anyone has any light they could shed on this. With my PC computer I'm getting 85-95 mb/s read & write speeds on internal SATA drives that are 80% full. Working on a 2yr old MacPro Tower (12gb ram, Xeon 2.8 quad core) I am reading only...

Looking at the Canon C100. It seems more like what the AF100 could have been. Similar features but in a 35mm size sensor instead of the micro 4/3. (And sharper image as a result). It's amusing to me to see people complain about at C100's $6500 price when the Af100 was about $5500 when it came...

Everything was fine in 5.5 I have a Panasonic DVCpro VTR i would capture video from and to in Premiere. Also i could attach closed caption files (.SCC files created in a captioning software pgrm) to the sequence and then print to tape (back to the VTR) Now in CS6 Premiere will not pass the...

I love my D800 and enjoy shooting with it. However this banding (Posterization) crap is just un-acceptable. Original after color correction (crushing blacks) Shots filmed with standard nikkor 50mm lens. 1.8f 200iso. Using SD card in camera and flaat_11 settings Is there a way to...

So I've been wanting a D800 but knew it's a long wait to order one. Imagine my surprise to walk into my local Best Buy yesterday and they happen to have one in stock! So, I notice when superimposing the audio meter on screen that I disappears when you start recording. Also the magnification...

Okay, seems most everyone on here is enjoying shooting with a hacked GH2. I have about 3 grand to spend for a camera/equip for a couple future projects. I REALLY want the Nikon D800 but price and the fact I'll have to wait weeks and weeks for delivery of it is a serious roadblock (I have an...

I know it's still early but as I see there are many who already have the D800 and are shooting video with it. Before I invest in this camera I would like to know if it has heat issues like some of the Canons. I mean, If I want to use it for shooting video on a daily basis, having it powered on...

Does ANYONE on here know anything about captioning? (FOR BROADCAST TV) I've done this at a TV station with the CPC software ($10k) hooked up to hardware ($5K) and then printed to videotape, but I'm looking for a way to author it right into the .mpeg file for TV. AND DO IT MUCH CHEAPER THAN...

Whats the best way to do this? I'm running premiere 5.5.0. I have an HD project (AVCHD 1080p/ 23.976fps I want to record it to DV (DVCPRO) Tape for Television Broadcast, which means it has to be 720, 60i. (DV). Everything I do looks horrible, studdery, bad aliasing, jaggie edges. I thought...

I just started back using premeire (5.5) and I'm trying to import AVCHD files from Sony NXcam camera. Is there not a special capture window for that? What I did was click import and search through the folders on the SDcards for the files and brought them into the bin. I notice their status...

I really hate it. Maybe i'm just stupid but it's alot harder to do a search on it. Am I the only one who misses the old style search for topics, posts, forums..etc page??

Hi. Until I can invest in an af100 or even f3 I am looking at using hdslr for shooting a no budget TV drama series and some short films. I had been using my hvx200 with a letus dof adapter but its such a hassel and currently need repair. Given the drop in valueof these adapters rather than...
