Maybe it is meant to be mounted on a skateboard deck:)

Oh, here's another good one. Probably followed by more on a similar topic.

When I was a teenager a lot of us had Honda Spree's (1987 or so). A friend of mine had heard that if you connect a tube...

Here's one, nothing graphic, but maybe I will think of more later.

I used to hang out at a local arcade as a teenager a lot. There was a guy there who looked just like Shaggy from Scooby Doo, so...

Hi Nalu,

The reason I worry so much about codecs is that editing is a bigger part of what I do than shooting is. I want to be sure I have the codec, specs, etc. that allow me to accomplish the...

Sorry I didn't manage to reply to this sooner Gibby. I have been a bit busy lately.

The reason I posted on the Cow was because I just wanted to see what people thought of some of the other...

Couldn't agree more, anyone who has ever seen "Where the Buffalo Roam" with Bill Murray knows that Bill is the best H.S. Thompson ever...

Not that I don't like Johnny Depp, just didn't like that...

On the image quality front, I believe they are using an older version of Flash video for this. I am thinking it is because it would cost too much in licensing if they used the On2VP6 codec.

I...

I think you are right JD. I was half asleep when I read TJ's post, and wasn't thinking it through properly.

The only way you could do that is with a larger lens that is normally shooting 4k.
...

Yeah, that sounds like a very good idea TJ. People had mentioned that earlier somewhere and I definitely like the idea.

The thing is, the camera is being purchased very soon, and if I don't have...

That's cool Aqua, to each his own.

But I have read Atlas Shrugged and studied libertarianism more generally, as well as most of the larger schools of political thought, and I personally see a...

I guess what this is coming down to for me is:

Would it be worth dealing with the loss of light from the B4 adapter, and swapping filters to have the image I would get out of an admittedly cheap...

Not to be rude Clint, but IMO let me just say that libertarianism is nothing more than anarchism with a very fascist streak. (I am an anarchist, so I am not insulting anarchism in saying this. Just...

Hi folks,

I was thinking in terms of the fact that I benefit from avoiding interlacing, but have very smooth motion. I guess the more I look at it, the more it seems I will want to shoot 720p60...

You should just put it in a underwater housing. That would confuse anyone who looked at it:)

Hi Leo,

Good talking to you again:)

I absolutely hear you... Early on in my investigation of which camera to get I decided that I would just get a PDW-F330. But the more I read about long gop...

For my money El Mariachi is his best film...

Though I haven't seen the latest one yet.

Grass Valley are using this, in combination with compact flash on their Infinity camera. So I'm sure it is a decent solution.

Tim

Yeah, I assume they will be a definite bargain, I just have to have a price in order to be able to get buy them:(



Yeah, I have been doing research on other cameras all along, but most of them...

One other question,

Are there any manual mechanisms for zoom control that would be workable for me? Could a follow focus be used for zoom instead assuming that the gears are the same?

And one...

Hi Gibby,

So good to see you back!!! Though I do wish that you somehow already had number 8 and had test reports for us:)

I am definitely thinking that S16 is the safest bet, but I do have one...

:)

Likewise...

Well said Kalone...

Hi Earthling,

Well I feel like an idiot on the DOF question. I had it backwards because I was thinking the extra light from a larger lens was the reason for the shorter DOF. The whole sensor...

Thanks Jeff,

Good ideas. I hadn't thought about the possibility of going 2k for a "digital zoom". I had just looked at the fact that the 18-50 is a 2.8x zoom and figured that since my 16x is not...
