Why is waveform difficult to implement on a cheap monitor? Magic lantern did it with an ancient 5Dm2 processor.

I think I'm getting me a new setup soon.

How's the 1080p on the Mark4? If it covers the full frame without line skipping, this is interesting news.

Blackmagic for the win. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1275888-REG/360rize_360helios_678_6_7_8_camera_360_video_rig.html

Waveform monitor for $218. Cheapest one I've seen so far. Haven't used it myself, though.

I'm a simple man. When I see NX1, I press like.

It seems Film Power is out with a new gimbal stabilizer, one where you don't need to balance anymore (that would be great if it worked, considering the criticism the 4200 got). Balancing the camera on the DS1 drove me nuts. Hope this is the way forward for all gimbals.

Better screen, better battery life--to sound like a broken record--and ditch the Sony-thin body.

Yep. So much for a new pocket.

I'm ready to throw my money at a Pocket with better screen alone (no excuse in this age of smartphones).

Some interesting options. Thanks for that! And I'm a reluctant with torrents, as my net will be far slower than the client's.

UPDATE: Unlike Dropbox, it's difficult to tell from a glance which files have been uploaded. I had put up 50GB of files in its folder, only to discover 25GB had been uploaded. The software was telling me syncing was finished (bullshit). I had to restart my computer (for some reason it sometimes takes forever to close the Google Drive software) before it started syncing again. Now I don't trust it and am through the files individually (pain in the ass).

Dropbox does generally feel "sounder". Wish I had gone for that. I like how the uploaded files have checks in my computer's folders. I went with Google Drive, which seems quite buggy to me. Sometimes I'm able to right click their icon, other times I'm not. I sent a complaint after not getting my upgrade 1 hour later, and they decided to refund (which I did not ask for) 6 hours later at night whilst I was sleeping. So my uploads got stuck at 15GB. I had to resubscribe in the morning. Man, that pissed me off. I have a 15Mbps, so it's not the fastest. Yea, it's great for slower connections and faster connections alike. (In case the other party downloading has a slow connection, too.)

A friend explained it's easy for large files to get corrupt during uploading, and sometimes the cloud tries to reupload when connection fails. So I've opted to breakup the files into 700mb sizes using 7-zip for the bigger files and uploading to Google Drive (no idea on its max file size).

Recently I tried uploading uncompressed video files (the largest at 100GB) only to find out that the individual file size limit is 2GB in Microsoft's OneDrive. Any idea on which service you've used would allow for up to 100GB (per file) upload? Should I break up the file, would that be more reliable? I ask because the language is confusing. For example, Dropbox says: "Files uploaded via the desktop app or mobile apps have no file size limit," but I'm uncertain if it refers to the individual files.

Hi guys, I'm planning on getting a BenQ UHD monitor. So I'm trying to figure out if my ASUS ROG GL552V has 10bit monitor support (I'll be upgrading to a desktop in a year). I mostly use Photoshop, Premiere, After Effect and Da Vinci. Would appreciate the input. Its specs are: Intel Core i7-6700HQ 2.6GHz 16GB RAM NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960M

Thanks, jcs. Hopefully I can start doing some audio tests of my own after going through a couple of these. =)

Guys, I'm looking for recommendations on books/videos that could help me better understand audio, particularly location sound recording for filmmakers. I'm talking basics. Thanks!

Are these portfolios or literally videos that invite someone to an event?

Might be a topic for the main forum.

I gotta say, Andrew, this color profile finally makes Sony a viable option for someone like me, who hates fighting the camera's color with every new file. Does this mean you'll be revising your position of Canon 1D X Mark II over Sony A7S II for your work?

I'm sure Art House Trump would do it in a heartbeat.

I hope he uses it to make Canon release C-log on their DSLRs and Samsung to resume the NX line.

10bit raw video in the Canon M5. That would be amazing.

We really should spread the thread into several thread. Perhaps one dedicated just for software hack discussion and updates, another for hardware add-ons.
