If i could reccoment anything it would be making one with 15mm rails spaced exactly 60mm apart as if you do then you will be able to fit industry standard other kit...

They just run by inserting compact flash cards but they also have a vga input so i was wondering if it would be possible to turn it into a very basic field monitor for my 550D and if so...

    The title pretty much says it all! I made this live vid for a great band called Drowned In Flames and would like a few opinions. Was shot on 2 Sony Z1s, a Shitty HDV cam with a lens adapter on it and a Hero cam attached to the guitar. While you're at the site it would be incredible if you could...

    Would you recommend this camera?

    If you are buying a camera to make a specific film you already have in mind then buying a camera to suit the need of said film is no bad idea. If you're going for a doc/pov style then getting that 'cinema look' probably isn't that important and the first two cameras would be fine for that. The...

    Canon 550D... will i regret it?

    Very interesting guys! The 60D does seem like a very nice go between! I have a sony DSLR at the mo and LOVE having the tilting LCD screen and i can imagine it being hugely helpful while shooting video. I was wondering quickly about the kit lens', is there a noticeable quality difference between...

    Canon 550D... will i regret it?

    I'm considering buying a 550d but am worried i'll regret not spending more and getting the 7d. If anyone could give me their experiences of both that would be awesome! I'm looking to mainly shoot shorts, possibly a feature and some corporate work. Thanks :)

    Directors style

    I know Polanski wasn't hailing himself as an auteur in that quote but I just don't think that 'auteur theory' is something directors should be thinking about at all. And certainly not something they should actively try to create. Having a style should come organically and not be forced...

    Directors style

    I just don't see how if you haven't written the screenplay you can be the 'author'. I just disagree. It may be their vision, but that vision has already been morphed, shaped and crafted by the words on the page. when it boils down to it i always end up agreeing with the thoughts of William...

    Directors style

    I did a paper while i was at university which asked whether an actor could be an auteur. Made for an interesting study. I find the auteur theory ridiculous to an extent however. While directors undoubtedly have styles, film is too collaborative for any director to ever lay claim to every...
