    Balckmagic Pocket Camera: What would be good lenses for it?

    Wow, HUGE difference! So the fix seems to work for most people, maybe it just didn't work for that one guy's video I saw (where it definitely still showed up, albeit in a reduced fashion). That video, however, looks like it's all gone! Probably helps that the image was exposed properly... :P...

    Balckmagic Pocket Camera: What would be good lenses for it?

    Ugh. there are cameras coming back that were re-calibrated showing the same issue... BMD seem to not be able to release proper products. :P Looks like I'm going with the GH3 permanently! I decided I need a stills camera anyway if I'm also wanting to get into Photography... To be clearer, it...

    Why not just light the scene a little bit better to increase your available light in order to step down properly?

    Balckmagic Pocket Camera: What would be good lenses for it?

    Ugh, that comparison *is* awful! Doesn't offer anything conclusive! Well I have some good news guys, Blackmagic have addressed the issues with the blooming sensor and white orbs appearing at particularly secular highlights! So all newer models should work out of the box without that horrible...

    Blackmagic solve sensor blooming issues with Pocket Camera!

    This is AWESOME as this is my dream camera, and I was reluctant to get it when I learned of the terrible white-orb/sensor blooming problem. However, Blackmagic Design has apparently fixed it! You can read all about it in this thread. It starts out vague, but as they continued to post info over...

    GEEZE dude, what the heck are you doing? Coming on here, asking for help, and then calling someone who asked you a LEGITIMATE QUESTION that horrible name? Good luck getting any further help...

    archived-videos Documentary Intro

    The text stays on the screen for WAY too long, is too plain, and fades in/out over a longer duration than necessary. I would not have known it was about a flood unless you had said something. I'm with Cracker Funk, just go into the meat and potatoes. You don't need to be ultra fancy with an...

    Balckmagic Pocket Camera: What would be good lenses for it?

    I'm probably not going to use it a lot, but will use it for several particular shots I want to do. For example, one of the first things I'll be doing is making a music video (just for grins) along to one of my favorite songs, and I'll utilize the 1080p/60p mode for one of the effects I want to...

    Avid MC7 vs. Adobe Creative Cloud?

    You know, I spent a lot of time thinking it over, and it's far more cost effective to stay with FCPX. I think I can deal with lack of DVD support and the new magnetic timeline. As cool as Creative Cloud seems and as good as Avid seems, they're both just too expensive!

    Avid MC7 vs. Adobe Creative Cloud?

    Hehe, I would LOVE to break into Hollywood of course, but we'll see how that goes! :lol: I'll play around with the demo of Avid a bit more before I make any final decisions. Only seems logical!

    Avid MC7 vs. Adobe Creative Cloud?

    True, it does seem pointless to spend that much on Creative Cloud when I may upgrade to Avid. :P However, I have tried the trial of Avid again and it's just too weird for me, so I likely won't ever go to Avid after all. The interface feels really complicated and it just isn't as easy as...

    Avid MC7 vs. Adobe Creative Cloud?

    I must not have dug deep enough for the waveforms/frame previews. :P I think I still prefer Adobe just because it's more or less what I'm used to by now, though it certainly is vastly different from Premiere Elements 10 or 11! One thing I love? The ability to export your current timeline...

    Avid MC7 vs. Adobe Creative Cloud?

    Sorry for double posting, but I can't seem to edit my last post, my browser doesn't want to let me... I tried Avid MC7, and it is super complicated! I really don't like it all. Plus, I hate that there are no waveform displays for audio (that I could find), and no frame previews on the clips. I...

    archived-videos Liberation: A Dystopian Action Film

    What hosting site did you use? The video isn't loading and all I'm getting is a white frame. :( I'm sure the movie is good though! I will definitely watch it when it decides to actually load. :P

    Avid MC7 vs. Adobe Creative Cloud?

    Well, I prefer Adobe for sure because I've used versions of Premiere Elements in the past and found it to be quite a decent workflow. I've also tried previous demos of Premiere Pro and found them to be pretty good (except for CS5, that one seemed really buggy for some reason!). I downloaded the...

    Avid MC7 vs. Adobe Creative Cloud?

    Well, as much as I want to like Final Cut Pro X, the fact that it doesn't include proper DVD authoring and is technically trackless is too weird for me. Like a lot of us, I like to have my media on certain tracks; main footage on video track 1 with main audio on audio track 1, titles/overlays on...

    What should I say?

    He worked on one episode of Arrested Development?! Awesome! Seriously one of the best shows ever produced. But yeah, just say hi, and since he's family it should be a bit easier to contact him on facebook! If you have the drive to make films and want to seriously pursue it, he'll recognize it...

    Balckmagic Pocket Camera: What would be good lenses for it?

    Thanks for your input, brunerww! Those side-by-side tests are very convincing! Moire is a terrible thing, glad to see the GH3 barely has any! 1080/60p would actually be incredibly useful to me for a few particular projects I have in mind, an a headphone jack is also necessary for what I need to...

    Balckmagic Pocket Camera: What would be good lenses for it?

    Not as far as I know, since it's a REALLY bad idea, but from what I've read people have had some issues with the black spots appearing at just really, really bright areas, and as ItDonnedOnMe said in the above post, sometimes a white orb appears, too. I'm really liking the looks of the GH3! Can...

    Balckmagic Pocket Camera: What would be good lenses for it?

    Hmm, all of this information from his videos and other websites are sort of swaying me away from this camera now. His example of the audio quality from the camera alone makes me feel uneasy about it, since I can't really afford separate audio recording devices except for mics. It's a great...
