    How to film someone running with minimal resources?

    Take to the air Going airbourne is a great solution, however there are skill sets that take years to perfect not to mention the safety issues and legal issues. In Canada when you fly a camera it is considered a UAV and is goverened by Transport Canada. You have to deal with then in order to...

    Upgrading the camera-next realistic level ?

    I would hold off and decide which way you are going in the buisness before getting a consumer camera only to outgrow it in a short time. I started shooting on an A-minima 16 mm film camera and then went to the Canon XL2, form there I bought a couple of XHA1 s and then a couple of XLH1 s. and...

    SteadiShot Review

    Best Of luck with your homemade version. The secret to the smooth shot is the articulated arm, I have tried several hard mounted units in the past and the footage was alittle better however nothing I would use. With the arm we are able to go up and down stairs withe exelent footage also I have...

    Widescreen

    IN your camera menu, set the aspect ratio to 16.9, after that just set your preferences up in FCP. I you have already brought clips in that are shot 4.3 you need to right click on the clip and then click properties. When that window opens check anamorfic that will change them to what you are...

    DV tapes, obsolete by 2011

    Even if they stop making dv tape (which I doubt) it does not make your camera obsolite. I still use the Canon XL2 as well as the xha1 cameras however I am not concered about the dv tape issue. I record to the AJA Kipro units. I can record dierectly to Apple 422 pro res. The other good feature...

    Sound Question

    All of this makes no sense to me either, I have loaded the sound files on the Computer directly from the card and have to raise the computers volume to max to make out the sound. So the problem is not with the NLE. I tried several different mics and got the same results so I will have to keep...

    Sound Question

    Levels are good, I called a freind who is a sound guy and he told me that the mic is a cardoid which the fotex dosen't support he said a condensor mike would be better or use a cheap pre amp and it will be fine. I will try that and see what happens

    Sound Question

    Recently I picked up a Fostgate FR-2le recorder, I ran a Azden SGM-2x mic to it and did some test audio. The audio sounded good through the headphones however when you bring the audio into the computer i have to max out the volume as the sound levels from the card are low. Should I run a pre amp...
