    Kristoferman got a reaction from Rinad Amir in Help choosing best camera in budget for VFX work?   
    What you're looking for doesn't exist for your price point, sorry. The fs700 is the closest probably but it's still more expensive with a raw recorder and doesn't do autofocus very well. Also no stabilization. So yeah, what you describe would be pretty amazing for less than $3000 but I wouldn't expect all those boxes to be ticked any time soon

    Kristoferman got a reaction from Gregormannschaft in Aputure: the Blackmagic of lighting   
    Fixed color temp will get you more light output at the same rated wattage. In bi-colors, half the leds are daylight and half are tungsten. So if you're at either daylight or tungsten, you're only getting half the potential light output. Even if all the led lights were going, fresnels would most likely offer superior light output, since there is a big reflector behind the lamp.
    Also fresnels offer much more controllable light. You can go from zoom to spot, whereas with panels, you're at a fixed, often wide, beam angle.

    I don't want to blab on too much more how I've been learning to draw and animate lately, but I stumbled on this book in the process and love it. It's a really easy read, and each chapter had several moments of "OHHH! Now I get it!" It's making me think about framing in a new way, as well as boosting my storyboarding skills like crazy. I'm almost positive it's okay that it's online for free because it's in the creative commons, but.. grain of salt. Worth a look. Happy filming!

    Sure I'll pay 15 grand for an 8-bit "cinema" camera. Maybe it'll even have peaking!

    Kristoferman got a reaction from kidzrevil in Has anyone seen this... It could quite possibly be the best indie film ever made...   
    looooove birdemic! I thought i heard a sequel was coming out, does anyone know about that?  I'm aware I could probably look it up, but where's the fun and camaraderie in that?!
    Back on topic though, I couldn't believe what I was watching the first time I saw Birdemic. The main actor is sooooo wooden and terrible. Everything about it is pretty terrible really though. Makes it a blast to watch! Even though there are so many great moments, the one that got me was the sex scene in the motel. It was so bad and the actors feet were ridiculously dirty! Gross.

    I had the same concerns. There are a lot of red flags in this post.
    If he is indeed so wealthy to where he makes the amount of scammed money in a day, then refund it. Don't say you'll refund it "someday" and then say you have no obligation to do anything. 
    And the biggest red flag of all is the "this will be my last post, I'm leaving forever". That is NOT something a innocent person would do. Saying you're worried about more scammers is not a logical concern.
    Someone who was actually trying to make things right would not cut themselves off from us and the victims. But you know who would? A scammer.
    It all just seems very transparent to me. The whole "this is terrible, I'd never do this! I'm so rich, why would I need to do this? Even though I'm so loaded and people were scammed of thousands of dollars in my name, I have no obligation to pay. But I will! Someday....oh by the way I'm never going to come back here again. Bye!" thing is soooo shady.
    It doesn't make sense, people!

    I doubt he's been planning the scam for years. It's far more likely in my opinion that he's been on the forum as a contributor and realized one day recently that he'd be able to get some money. A few thousand dollars is a lot of money to a young person in Egypt, as he's already admitted.
    Just a dumb guy trying to make a fast buck.

    The real lesson here is never use western union for these kind of transactions.
    And to be clear, I'm not going down this rabbit hole of searching for proof of the existence of Ebrahim or theorizing about specifics of the scam and his involvement. I was merely stating that the first reply by the account in this thread was...strange.. and that breaking off contact with the scammed community is something that damages his reputation further.

    99.9% of the 5Dmkiii users have never even heard of Magic Lantern. We are talking about one of the most widely used still cameras in history. Prices will drop when the mk4 is released.
