Somehow during the shoot, I lost the battery charger for my Canon T2i. I looked all over several times, the set, the vehicles, and my place, but couldn't find where it would have gone. I found out it was lost, after I arrived to shoot, but thought I packed it. So I could only shoot to till the batteries ran out. I have another shoot this weekend, and still cannot find the charger. I tried buying one but every store in town says they have to order a charger cause they don't sell them on their own. That will take three weeks as well as any internet orders, won't be in by this weekend.
My only option is to borrow the camera of someone I know but no one I know owns the T2i. Some friends have camcorders, but they don't know much about the camcorders. I don't know if they shoot in 24fps, or if the screen size is 1920 by 1080. I don't know anything about the shutter speed, aperture, ISO, color balance, etc. So should I shoot this weekend with one of those, not knowing much about it? Will my picture look too different and I won't be able to make it look enough like all the footage I shot already for my film? One of my other actors has another movie the week after which she has to change her appearance too much and I won't be able to reschedule after this weekend.
