    cinematography 1080p 24 or 30 fps?

    Well then, 30 it is. I never thought of 24 as being an intentional degradation but it makes perfect sense with today's technology. Thanks everyone for your help.

    cinematography 1080p 24 or 30 fps?

    As some of you might recall, I'm making an instructional DVD and while it is, yes, simply an instructional DVD, I want to make it look as good as possible and put all of my creativity into so it won't be a stodgy, boring video.

    I'm shooting a documentary/instructional video on a shoestring budget and will use the GH1 and a GoPro Hero for my video. Audio will of course be handled off camera. I think I will need several lenses to cover all of my shooting. I will need an "interview" lens for 60 Minutes style interviews...

    Hello from Norfolk, VA and please critique

    Hi folks. I'm new to the forum (obviously) and new to filmmaking. I've always wanted to have a nice video camera and do some serious amateur shooting but couldn't justify the expense of anything better than a consumer camcorder. Until now. I think I've found a small market for an instructional...
