Hi, I'm looking for a relatively cheap single focus anamorphic lens 1.5-2x. I'm relatively new to this and have seen a few things advertised on eBay such as an Isco anamorphic set up which works at wider apertures and you just focus with the attachment with the taking lens set to infinity. I'd appreciate any help with this as that set up looks quite heavy - needs a support frame. Any ideas on what to buy appreciated my budget is up to £500 Thanks Dan

Great monologue, love the bit about greed. But I feel overall the piece indicates a lack of experience in the analysis of others.

Classic. The thread is becoming better than the original post. You get meh? I don't think you do.....

Amen to that

I really enjoyed that. It looks cool and was funny and well cut, the trailer made me want to see more. It reminds me of Bad Taste and Brain Dead for some reason.

Thanks for the replys, I think when you share directly with Vimeo it chooses the settings for you - as you don't create a file on your computer. I assumed Vimeo optimised the settings this way but it seems not to work that well and I see so many great quality videos on Vimeo I wondered where I was going wrong! I'll definitley try rendering a prores proxy file and then uploading that.

Hi all, I'm new here and very new to dslr video making. I recently went on holiday to France and made a short video of my trip rock climbing. I filmed it on the bmpcc in proresHQ and practiced grading in fcpx on my MacBook Pro. It was only short 2mins and I shared it to Vimeo from fcpx. There seems to be some significant quality changes during this including the video seeming weird as it cuts between shots. I have previously tried compressing with handbrake to h264 codec then uploading as per Vimeo guidelines but the quality is even worse when I do this. I wondered if anyone could help / advise me on best way? Cheers. Dan.
