I've been using the Canon XL2 for about 2 years now. It's been a very good camera and I want to hang on to it but I'm looking to get an HD camera. After some research I'm looking at the Panasonic Pro AG-HVX200A. I do a lot of outdoor/fishing videos, as well as independent movies. Has anyone had...

Finger oil it is... never again!

I see plug-ins and filters for After Effects everywhere (impressive ones too), however I rarely ever see decent ones for FCP? Is there a place to buy filters and plug-ins for FCP???

Very nice DOF. I guess that comes with practice?? I'm sure they are using at least one custom preset... What do you think about filters? Any use of filters? They must be editing the color in post. Looks so good...

This site's videos blow me away. I would like to obtain the same look in my outdoor/fishing videos. I've noticed they use quick shots, and a lot of movement, but the look is very good. Obviously they're shooting in HD, but are any filters or effects used that anyone can notice? To obtain a look...

It looks like some type of gradient with a yellow tint? Something looks different with this clip but I can't pinpoint it. Anyone have any thoughts on this videos look? Link

Separate circuits seems like the solution....

Probably was my newbie slimey paws... So surge protector or anything like that is not necessary?

Sorry, forgot to include that part. http://www.lowel.com/kits/DVcreator1.html

I'll be using my lights for about a week straight and I'm concerned about plugging them directly into a household/commercial outlet. The first time I used one of my lights the bulb exploded and I was told it might have been the outlet that caused it? If this is the problem, is it a surge...

Hehehe

Good call. Thanks both of u guys.

How is the sound recorded when the camera is far from the subject? I guess an example would be in Reservoir Dogs when the subjects talking are in the middle of a big room... where is the sound recorded from? Lavalieres?

Thanks for the feedback guys. I have figured out how to do in SD and yes I now want to keep it HD for youtube. I'm still confused how iMovie recognizes the Sony Handycam, however FCP does not? Hmmm...

I think Thom is right. I was uploading videos on another browser. Perhaps that was slowing it down.

I've been using a Canon XL2 for about 2 years now and it's worked very well for me. I do not want to get rid of my XL2, however I'm looking into purchasing a high definition camera. I currently professionally produce fishing videos and am a student filmmaker so I will be making a lot of...

Working with an HD project still. Ready to export using Compressor from FCP. I'm going to compress with my usual settings for Youtube. Will it be compressed in SD or a massive HD file? Anyone do this often or have any idea how to export it SD? Thanks.

I right clicked on the clips and selected "view in finder", then from this folder I imported the .mov files into FCP. I guess this is a solution, however I'm hoping it does not affect the equality.

I borrowed my buddy's Sony Handycam HDD yesterday to try it out. I ran into some problems importing the video to my computer. My FCP could not locate the camera so I ended up importing it to iMovie, which recognized it. Now that I have the video uploaded to iMovie, can I transfer it to FCP?

Strange, because it looks horrible, out of the blue, on my computer. I went to my buddy's last night and it looked sharp.
