    RED Scarlet Destroyed *Source*

    The Scarlet, assuming it hasn't been modified in that department, hot swaps 8GB or 16GB compact flash cards. The 32GB cards will be released at around the same time. Shooting on Red One gives you around 5 minutes recording time. So 16gb will give you around ten and 32gb about 20 or so...

    RED Scarlet Destroyed *Source*

    Any old computer can handle the resolution of RED cameras. They judder at 4k even on high end macbooks, but you don't need to view the footage at that. 3k footage runs well on high end computers, and 2k is viewable on anything a year old or so. Also, wideshot, what makes you think that the...

    Sony FX1 HD- 35mm mounts?

    You can get a Letus Extreme or Brevis adapter for Canon or Nikon lenses, or use a movietube adapter for PL. There's something that irks me about sticking a $40000 set of lenses on a $7000 camera though.

    Well the Scarlet will be fully manual, and if it fulfils half it's promises it'll be ten times the camera the A1 is.

    Scarlets competition?

    Nothing that I've heard. Thing is, Scarlet is the prosumer RED. Red has no competition in the same price bracket, and neither I'm assuming will Scarlet.

    Advice plz! Camera for documentary

    I recommend renting. Rather than spending the money on a consumer camera, use it to hire a prosumer camera for a week and get broadcast quality images.

    DVX 100B

    Well that all depends on your shooting situation, but with the DVX you generally want it set to 25p mode for progressive scan. Aside from that it's entirely situation dependant.

    How can I start to become one?

    I recommend personally trying to get your hands on the DVD collections of The Ren and Stimpy Show purely for the commentaries by director John Kricfalusi. He's one of the last great animators of the 20th century and the commentaries give a fantastic insight into the way that cartoons and...

    Length of Title

    'Things to do in Denver when you're dead' can't be shortened particularly, nor can 'Don't be a menace in South Central when Drinking Your Juice in the Hood' which is one of the longest titles I know. I don't think it really matters, although longer titles generally make me chuckle when they're...

    Lenses

    I'm not sure you're too certain on how lenses work. I only really know about Arri lenses at the minute, and high end ones at that but in terms of your question there will be many lenses that fit that description and there are many factors that determine depth of field, not just the lens itself...

    announcement Basic Members Can Post

    I do run an enormous forum community :p: I don't handle the financial side but I do understand where it's all from. The flipside is that yes, babysitting the peons is difficult when noone is paying. But let's face it, this forum, as awesome as it's members are and were, was dying without basic...

    announcement Basic Members Can Post

    I'm glad this has been introduced. Forcing people to pay to post in even the most basic of forums killed this site and stopped me coming here. Hopefully it's now back on track.

    Cameraman as a career?

    Well I'd recommend you get some experience in stills photography, purely as a hobby, first in order to learn the basics of capturing images. You'll learn the basics about lenses, light, exposure, framing (crucial) and endless other factors which carry over almost seamlessly between photography...

    One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest

    Donnie Darko? I mean, Donnie is pretty much shown how surviving the initial accident of the jet engine leads to a chain of events where numerous people die or have their lives ruined just by his existence. He then chooses to erase it all by sacrificing himself despite all the people he...

    Yeah, ME. I'm assuming that's got something to do with my original problem.
