    Dude, you stole my song(or more accurately, we both stole the same song, but i stole it first). I used the same same on my upload on Friday...also shooting at night! :D
  2. HurtinMinorKey
    yes, you can playback your clips on the screen.

    Got the new lens, took some handheld nighttime test shots last night.   https://vimeo.com/75504883

    ^this   See the part about panning a few paragraphs down and check to see if you are panning too fast.   http://kb2.adobe.com/community/publishing/908/cpsid_90843.html   note the "seven second rule" mentioned by QuickHitRecord.

    I have a LowPro Flipside 500, which is huge, and I love it, but I'm not sure It's big enough for all of your gear. It fits a BMCC with it's Switronix battery pack, a 5D3 and 6 lenses.   Sounds like a lot of gear, you might consider...

    I prefer the image on the BMCC, but not enough that it overwhelms other considerations. If you like to shoot a lot of handheld and or really make use of it as a stills camera, I'd probably go with the 5D3. If you are going to be using tripods or other forms of stabilization I'd go with the BMCC.   The ability to shoot to SSD is a huge plus for me. I can store and edit a bunch of footage directly off it, without having to dump a bunch of footage between shoots.   I recommend spending a lot of time watching the best clips both systems have offer, focusing on the types of shots you envision yourself using.

    Switronix PB-70. It gives you more than 4 hours life on the BMCC. It's kinda heavy but it sits nicely on top of a tripod.  The weight actually works well because it acts as a counter weight for my shoulder rig.

      I'm not sure even the admin knows the rules fir this. There used to be a sticky for forum rules.   Anyway, nice trailer. What was your indoor lighting setup?

      If you want to get it as cheap as possible, you should put it together yourself. Basically you can follow online instructions for building a gaming PC.  If you really want someone to build it for you, i'd recommend ORIGIN.    http://www.originpc.com/

    Why does everyone feel like they need fancy monitor for grading?  Don't we want to make sure the grade looks good on the average monitor?   I see the same issue brought up in Audio. A lot of guys will actually master with i-pod headphones because that's what their audience will be listening on.

      Most people will use their tripod longer, especially if it's a good one.

    How much free space left do you have on the Mac's HD?

    I need a new phone. I'm leaning Lumina 1020, but I hate that it is so big. For me the small size/weight of the iPhone is big plus.

    cost for new PC approximately 1600.   If you ever plan on shooting/editting raw, you need at least a 2GB graphics card. I'd go 4GB GTX 780. USB 3.0 or thunderbolt ports to offload the SSDs Raid configured hard drive, or SSD  for read/write speed while editing. Intel I7-37** or above for encoding.   There is no need for multiple SSD if you are doing work in the studio. Just get a caddy with USB 3.0 or Thunderbolt and you can offload you footage pretty quickly. 480 GB is plenty for shooting in the studio.

    Brings to light another virtue of Adobe cloud. You get great updates as soon as they are stable, and you don't have to wait until it makes economic sense for the company to put it into an official release.

    I did some shots of the Duck Boats in Boston to try out my new Revo Rig. As you'll see,  It wasn't quite stable enough for the 100mm shots.   The company liked the video and posted it on their Facebook and Twitter.   https://vimeo.com/73272837

      Aren't there aesthetic qualities to an anamorphic lens than the aspect? I was wondering if high resolution sensors would make anamorphic unnecessary one day.

    GH3

        Yah, I still can't get over how blooming good the P. Bloom clip is.   The blooming issue just seems to be another quirk of the BMD cameras. Doesn't seem to be a deal breaker, given the overall quality of the camera, but it's definitely something you need to be aware of when shooting.
  20. HurtinMinorKey
    Look at bloom flashing a little skill. Looks very nice, but it's still a little shaky,

      This is something that i didn't think about, and i'll want to be on the lookout.  Although the LCD screen is almost directly in front of me because of the offset with the shoulder brace, but it's not exactly dead ahead.     I admit it's probably not something I'd want to shoot long events with, but with adequate counter weight, it's actually pretty comfortable.

    I'm trying to get over my hate of handheld shots, so I decided to get a really cheap shoulder rig for the BMCC.  I was surprised how expensive most of them are. Anyway, i ended up with this thing, and so far I am very impressed with it.  At $69 dollars my expectations were very very low, but it really does everything i need.    http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/884805-REG/revo_sr_1000_shoulder_support_rig.html   It supports just enough weight for me to use my Rokinon 24 cine, and there is a place to screw in my Switronix battery pack (which also functions as a counter weight, on the shoulder support).   It appears to be giving me very steady shots on my Canon 50mm too.  It probably won't support a full blown cage and mattebox, but don't use one anyway.
  23. HurtinMinorKey
    I'm for sure getting the new Rokinon 16mm as soon as it's available. 
  24. HurtinMinorKey
    Ah yes, if you love to shoot handheld, the BMCC isn't really the go to option. What's your widest lens? How come you haven't considered the 5D3? That way you get the raw option, and h.264 to fall back on.

      Do we even know what the BM4K image will look like, yet? Will we ever? :o
