    Panasonic Lumix FZ 2000/2500

    I'm also at a dilemma was looking at FZ300 but it is 7 years old and small sensor, but like the F2.8 lens, hoping for a slightly under S$1K one, perhaps wait long long. I wonder if I can rent a FZ300?

    Shooting HD video using DSLR instead of video camera.

    Just curious are you saying that XDCAM and Canon H264 gives you the same results? I have not tried Canon H264 but with H.264 files, it is a pain even to create a clean matte. XDCAM is a little better from my experience. I'm wondering if I'm missing something.

    New to HD - regarding compressor

    Dear briansio, I have no clue to what you are try to correct, 24p is only the frame rate, to get 'film' look it is the way you light and shoot. If you are talking about TV ... 23.976 is defintely not a acceptable format. "Oceania or Asian movie production is 25p" ... that depends on the movie...

    Why DSLR Full HD Videos cannot be compared to Blu-Ray Full HD Videos

    Higher end video camcorders have 3 x C-mos and the lens is much wider in diameter. When you deal with Video, look beyond the size 1920 x 1080 is only the size. Just like photography Jpeg and Raw produces image of the same size, but the file sizes are very different.

    Shooting HD video using DSLR instead of video camera.

    :thumbsup: I heard a lot from the cable promo world that this is like the end of all ... I rather agree with the above comments. How can a single chip be compared to "proper" gears, for HD / SD or whatever... it is just good enough for poor budgets. this gear fits your budget and it will...

    The Video Business

    A course will not mean a thing to the art or any art form. The problem is consumers are not educated and do not care. What is the value difference of 3K wedding coverage as compared to $500? Those that go with $500 don't care, so they think that $500 is just lovely as they will not bother...

    Stainless Fake Blood?

    I have not tried with blood, but with ink, spray the wall with dulling spray and make sure you have the downward path covered. After the shoot, mop up the stain first using cloth, then clean with damp cloth to get rid of the dulling spray.

    Firestore

    Work flow is a lot better when compared to DR-60. When I shoot on DR-60, I have to bring it back and transfer it to FCP. I tried transferring in the field to another harddisk for a test ... FCP has a problem with that. With the MRC-1 ... your limit is your pocket to get more cards. I have so...

    Firestore

    DR60 is old technology ... it adds a lot of weight to you camera and throw the CG off. if the budget is not issue go for HVR-MRC1. As for testing, if HVR-MRC1 works so will DR60.
