  1. It is one thing to protect copyright. It's another thing to deploy a process in which the small guy almost always loses. My experience with the other big video hosting company is that if you get hit by a false positive, it can take up to six week for the rights "holder" to respond to your dispute. And if they do respond, they can deny your dispute and you will have to go through the formal appeal process which involves disclosing your personal information. Unless your pocket is as deep as one of these vultures, responding to those legal letters is simply not worth the time and money.
  2. Use a mic preamp. Something like Use a mic preamp. Something like Zoom H4N (or the new H5N) and a bunch of TASCAM units could help. If you have money, a Sound Device MixPre-D is also a good choice.
  3. Musicians and writers often do get ripped off by publishers. That's why more and more of them are getting into self-publishing.
  4. Even if you are using music with proper licensing or under fair use, there are still many vultures that will be happy to speak with your lawyer once the music is matched. If you cannot afford one to fight, your video is gone. Maybe it is time to support only artists who release some of their works under a Creative Commons licence.
  5. Classical music is not safe. The record companies hold copyright to the sound recordings.
  6. YouTube's content matching algorithm is so good that it flags anything that remotely resembles what is on their database. Like others, I have had 300-year old classical pieces that I recorded on site being flagged for copyright violation. I even have had something I created 100% originally flagged!!! I was hoping switching to Vimeo would solve this nonsense. Looks like it won't. YouTube offers the big guys different options. Some might let you keep your audio and put ads or links to the CD. Others might mute your audio. Yet some others would suspend your video and give your account a strike unless an appeal is successful. If your account gets three strikes, it is suspended.
  7. Which profile setting would you like? CineD -5 across the board?
  8. I think it's more like the prosumer (or enthusiast) market. Consumers just use iPhones/Android/Lumia.
  9. Finally got my GH4 with that 12-35mm GX Vario lens. I like it very much so far. I've got one newbie question. In the video, Griffon mentioned about setting the Master Pedestal Level all the way to +15. What could be the reasons for setting it up that high on the GH4?
  10. I had one of these. Very good.

    RX100M3 topic

    If the 5-axis stabilisation is indeed there, this could be a great camera for family outings.
  12. I will wait for a7T, if they continue with the naming scheme. :D
  13. If I could shoot like that, I'll be happy for quite a while.
  14. Thanks. Wow. 98% was shot on the G X Vario 12-35mm. That's the same lens I ordered!
  15. I thought there is no speed booster that keeps autofocus.
  16. What are some good speedbooster clones?

    GH4 audio bug

    That is very disturbing.

    GH4 audio bug

    This is bad! I have just placed an order of the GH4 yesterday.
  19. I think the video posted in another >thread mentions that GH4 AF is indeed slower than GH3.
  20. Pardon my ignorance. But what is the S-curve?
