So I'm about to resume shooting a project this weekend and I was looking for some suggestions.
I'm using miniatures, specifically two wooden model ships, and I will be shooting them with long lenses and a 35mm adapter. The shots will be static but I'm interested in adding muzzle flashes and smoke and possibly some damage to the ships in post to make it look as if they're actually doing battle.
I imagine that using the XH-A1 for this task is less than ideal.
If you were forced to use an A1, what settings would you use? 30p? What about shutter speed? I don't intend to slow anything down...but if I did, it'd be nice to know if there's an optimal shutter speed. That being said, I don't think the Brevis ground glass vibrates quickly enough to accommodate a 1/120 shutter.
Anyhow, I'd love some suggestions. I won't be able to capture direct to a laptop for 4:2:2 color space, either.
All of that being said, would be it be wise to just forego using the A1 this weekend and renting an HVX for this part of the project?
