Clothing spot shot on D90

I didn't notice any rolling shutter on that fast pan or due to the handholding.

It's there. Was pretty noticeable IMO. The shimmery/wobbly backgrounds whenever the camera moves (almost every shot) and the way the camera flashes light up in sections - those are the symptoms of the rolling shutter.

Thought it was great though - this is exactly the kind of thing where the D90 shines. I almost want to say that the extra movement you get from the rolling shutter benefits this style.

Really nice work Andrew!

The all new D90 with built in special FX.
 
Is it possible to film anything on Hollywood Blvd. without Andy Dic* staggering through your shoot?

Nice work. That small form-factor must make work in busy public places at least a little bit easier.

Looks awesome. Funny how this cam works best when used in this retro scenario. Low resolution, high latitude, and some film clutter, it's super8. :D (And although the short DOF is not like super8, the constant focus searching makes for some memories too...)

Very nice looking, and I'm loving that Credence is back being fashionable these days. I'm betting Brothers Johnson will make a comeback sometime too.. :D
 
Thanks guys. Yeah, rolling shutter was a little annoying throughout the shoot, but seeing as everything was handheld, the only thing I could really do to minimize it was take advantage of the VR in the lens, and try to steady my shots, not do a lot of panning, etc. The Andy Dick thing was funny, he was "secretly" shooting some content for a show or pilot of some kind. A couple guys with Flip cameras were following the action as he pretended to have a confrontation with the guy in blue (you can see him in our spot) and Andy Dick ends up ripping the kids shirt off in attempt to get away from the mob.

Some of you have said this style fits the D90 best, however I disagree. I think the limitations of the camera, though a pain in the a**, can be overcome and worked around. The director of this spot and I will be shooting a scene study soon in a very Law & Order/Fringe type look, and I will be shooting on the D90. Of course, that will be posted here when it is done.

I completely agree. I just think the jello limits it in any sort of run 'n gun capacity except for videos like this one where the shakiness fits the degraded film look.

I've had one for awhile now, just haven't done anything great with it yet...Lots of experimenting. Really love it.

Looking forward to the scene study.
 
Have you ever seen Narc? The opening shot was so shaky I almost **** myself. Nobody would even see jello cause the camera work is so bizarre. And....how many people that are not somehow involved in video/film will even see jello, seriously?
