Andy (Lee) if one had a choice between the Tokina 28-70 2.6-2.8 and the Nikkor 28-70 which one would you choose? Keeping in mind the Nikkor is thrice the price. Is the Nikkor worth the premium over the Tokina?

Sure. Hopefully by Wednesday I can put them.

I have access to this for the next 48 hours. Let me know if you need certain things tested. I will do me best. (Note: Can't compare with other cameras unfortunately)

http://www.amazon.com/GGS-Viewfinder-Magnification-ggs3-0x-LCDVF/dp/B005INALWG Works very very well.

Or maybe use a few of these tags and program the cameras to focus on them.

But they still wouldn't always no what to focus on.

The future of auto focus maybe with lasers etc, Put a super tiny tag on the talent or object for focus. program and viola.

Various posts on the interwebz indicate to it occurring due to over-exposure, so even if you increase your aperture and reduce ISO to get the same exposure it might clip. Try the white balance work around for now.

Canon DSLR's (teamed with magic lantern) are better video cameras than screwdrivers are hammers. :D

Watermark. Watermark Watermark. Occasionally have a watermark run across the screen in an establishing shot or something that doesn't have actors. See at the end of the day, if someone want to leak it there is nothing you can do. So the watermark at least helps you identify who did it. On a film I worked, we would invite all these guys to our office and show them a copy. Sadly, the film was so bad no one bought it. So as a filmmaker it's also a catch 22 situation.

I doubt Canon really cares what readers of this blog/forum think about their product. Guess they'll probably update the Cx00 line over the next couple of years but sadly I doubt they'll give us specs like the upcoming FS7.

Err the Apple Watch needs to be paired with an iPhone. It can't do much except tell time without one. Not going to "liberate" anything. This camera on the other hand is sweet. Good bang for the buck too.

Sony going for the jugular! Superb I say.

While we are at it, SDI out C300 like EVF, and why not $1500

Ahh the monthly Canikon are dinosaurs post.

It's possible that you can have a few blocking artefacts depending on the complexity/details of the scene. Did you encode using CBR or VBR?

It's EF, but the image circle is optimised for APSC

And yet we are all always chasing the 'filmic' look...

The funny thing is...if everyone was still shooting film, this blog wouldn't exist.

Erik makes some great points.

Digestion issues.... ...kidding Gear Acquisition Syndrome

The perfect voyeurs camera it seems...

Off the top of my head, I can't think of any. I will give the stuff a re-listen soon and let you know though. Thanks again for this brilliant stuff.!

Ho w about extending some of the existing pieces? As far as genres are concerned, personally I would love some in the horror/surreal and Fantasy music!
