Re: choosing the right camera - 14 years agoYou can find camera reviews online by doing a goggle search. Here's one: Texas Shootout!by Russ Blaise - Café LA Re: Amsterdam Supermeet - 14 years agoQuoteApple does look at these forum postings I posted a problem I was having on the Apple Compressor forum. The AppleCare Senior Tech Support Specialist emailed me and wanted to talk to me. He gave me his phone number. I called and got a message to leave a message. Nothing saying I was calling Apple. I called Apple and they said nobody from AppleCare reads those forums and they would not confirby Russ Blaise - Café LA Re: Amsterdam Supermeet - 14 years agoQuoteAdobe for example ist trying to get as much as close to the users because they want them to know that they care and want to create world class software and improve their products with the help from users, so at this point it does not "suck"... I'm not buying into that one. All us GoLive users got screwed! Adobe didn't listen to us. They just didn't care. Okay Okay, blood presby Russ Blaise - Café LA Re: choosind the right camera - 14 years agoI read that information that was on Wikipedia in other places. I just link to it because it was easier to read. Well that's all cool. I'll be working with the Canon XHA1 a lot more in the coming weeks and months. I'll be able to run some test using the different modes and really pin it down to what works best for our projects. maltess, Crank: High Voltage was shot using the Canon XHA1 and tby Russ Blaise - Café LA Re: choosind the right camera - 14 years agoWe were wondering what the "F" meant in "24F". We could not find a reference anywhere telling us. Okay, that clears a lot of thing up. Thanks,by Russ Blaise - Café LA Re: choosind the right camera - 14 years agoJeff, I know what you mean when you say; "be very careful about relying on non-technical sources for technical information". I'm a WWII historian and places like wikipedia can give you wrong information on a subject because anybody can post anything. So lets take the Canon XHA1. We used it last night and will see the edit this sunday. It shoots interlace, so how in my workflow do Iby Russ Blaise - Café LA Re: choosind the right camera - 14 years agomaltess, Here are a few pages to look over about 1080i and 1080P: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1080p http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HDV http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1080i In the 1080i page it says: "In certain contexts, as in camcorders, what the camera manufacturers define as "1080i" actually has a lower horizontal resolution, with only 1440 horizontal pixels, 1080 vertiby Russ Blaise - Café LA Re: choosind the right camera - 14 years agoHey Jeff, Thanks for clearing that up for me. You explained it pretty good. I'm not so much a technical geek on this stuff, still learning how all this digital stuff works.by Russ Blaise - Café LA Re: choosind the right camera - 14 years agoI might not be saying this correct but the Canon XHA1 has an Image Sensor of 3 - 1/3" Native 16:9 CCDs (1440 x 1080). To get full 1080 progressive, the sensor needs to be 1920 x 1080, or the camera needs to have the ability to up res. I don't see that in their specs. You can use a hard drive to store your footage but, If that HD fails, you're dead! If you fill the HD up and put it somewheby Russ Blaise - Café LA Re: choosind the right camera - 14 years agoThe Canon XHA1 is not a 1080 progressive. It shoots 1080i (1440 x 1080). I guess you can transcode it to progressive. I not sure, someone correct me on this? Funny, tonight I'm directing a small shoot and they are using the Canon XHA1. I guess I can tell you how well it did after tonight.by Russ Blaise - Café LA Re: choosind the right camera - 14 years agoI've used the Panasonic AG-HVX200A P2HD Camcorder to shoot behind-the-scenes footage on a movie set. It's a nice camera and you can shoot in 480, 16x9 mode to a mimi DV tape. I think right now some places are giving away a free P2 card with each Panasonic purchase.by Russ Blaise - Café LA Re: choosind the right camera - 14 years agoI'll go with what Jeff said, and if you are shooting documentaries, are you submitting them to any networks for consideration like PBS, History Channel, etc? I'm in the same boat as you looking for the right camera for my needs. Right now I'm leaning towards the RED 2/3" Fixed lens Scarlet that has not been released yet. But that's me and what I need in a camera...by Russ Blaise - Café LA Re: choosind the right camera - 14 years agoI think before getting any advice on a camera, you need to tell us what will you be mostly shooting. Also do you want a camera that shoots 1080P, 1080i, 720P and do you need to shoot in SD.by Russ Blaise - Café LA Re: Why shoot 24p if TV only shows 29.97? - 14 years agoI think one of his original questions was: "because I've read everywhere that TV monitors always show movies at 29.97fps regardless of at what frame rate they were shot." So I guess he's asking if he feeds the TV a 24P movie or something, will it convert to 29.97 automatically?by Russ Blaise - Café LA Re: OT: RIP Patrick Swayze - 14 years agoYeah, kind of a different roll for him. I did enjoy the movie...by Russ Blaise - Café LA Re: OT: RIP Patrick Swayze - 14 years agoToo bad about Swayze. He was one of the good guys in Hollywood. I don't think you'll find to many people that didn't like him. Point Break: good movie, cheesy lines, especially coming from Keanu Reeves that can't act anyway or I should say, he can't deliver his lines convincingly. Don't get me wrong, I like Reeves, but he's not a good actor? imoby Russ Blaise - Café LA Re: Apple Cinema Display 30 inch monitor - 14 years agoI"m doing the two - 24" DELL Ultrasharps thing. It works out pretty nice. I have plenty of real estate to move the different windows around... and I still have room left over to go on the web and stuff while I'm working.by Russ Blaise - Café LA Re: Field Audio - 14 years agoThe one that I was looking into was the "Marantz PMD661 Professional Portable Field Recorder". It had pretty good reviews. I haven't bought anything yet and still looking. Look at them all.by Russ Blaise - Café LA OT: CalDigit Driver Updates for Snow Leopard are here. - 14 years agoInstalled Snow Leopard until late last night. Got up this morning to test my CalDigit VR... Houston, we have a problem. Checked the CalDigit website, there they were, updated drivers and RAID Tools... OUTSTANDING!! CalDigitby Russ Blaise - Café LA Re: OT: Snow Leopard to go on sale THIS FRIDAY... - 14 years agoI did a Snow Leopard pre-order yesterday through amazon dot com. $29.00 was the price. To day I get an email from them saying that SL estimated arrival date: September 09 2009 - September 15 2009. Went back to amazon dot com to cancel it and found the price went down to $24.99. If I didn't check they would of still charged me $29.00. Some Pre-order Price Guarantee.

One less thing to worry aboutby Russ Blaise - Café LA Re: OT: Snow Leopard to go on sale THIS FRIDAY... - 14 years agoOn CalDigit's Facebook page it says: Getting ready for Snow Leopard? CalDigit has native support! What does "has native support" mean in that statement?by Russ Blaise - Café LA Re: New Academic Price for FCS Kills it For This Teacher - 14 years agoBut as least the students will be in the ball park as for learning FCP. Going from FCE to FCP is easier than going from iMove to FCP.by Russ Blaise - Café LA Re: FCP 7: Motion 4 : Color 1.5 ect :-))) - 14 years agoApple store here in Tucson just got their shipment in of FCS... "f8 and Be There!"by Russ Blaise - Café LA Re: FCP 7: Motion 4 : Color 1.5 ect :-))) - 14 years agoThe Apple store here in Tucson does not have the new FCS. They said maybe in a week or two. But they been none to be wrong sometimes.by Russ Blaise - Café LA Re: FCP 7: Motion 4 : Color 1.5 ect :-))) - 14 years agoQuoteis this available in stores now? I have to drive by the Apple store anyway. I'll stop by and see. I better bring my credit card just in case I get the itch...by Russ Blaise - Café LA Re: New Academic Price for FCS Kills it For This Teacher - 14 years agoHey son, what did you learn this year in school? I spent the year learning, iMovie. So I guess you'll be living with us for the rest of your life... WTF!by Russ Blaise - Café LA Re: FCP 7: Motion 4 : Color 1.5 ect :-))) - 14 years agoQuoteKeep the higher price, make the upgrade not so cheap You may make that suggestion AFTER I buy my upgrade...by Russ Blaise - Café LA Re: Moderators Appreciation - 14 years agoHow about us Non-Moderators.
