Thank you Justin, that's very kind. It will great seeing you too.

It will not work with a rod based matte box when the FF is turned away from the camera which is my preferred way to use it in hand held. You can use a clip on Matte box no problem. It should work...

Sure Nick, it will work in any situation. I haven't tested it out on a RED camera yet. I will at NAB. It will work when turned away from the camera body but I have to check and see if it will work...

I agree Peter, 3D models are lame so I ran down to our stage and shot a quick--not so great--iPhone video showing you how a recoil rig, Z-drive and Tornado all work together. Check out how small the...

Real finished production models will be NAB.

I don't know what you mean by that, can you explain?

Wow, I'd love to do a documentary on that Luck concept. It's kind of like the butterfly effect. I believe in that. When people tell me they can't do something. My response is "of course you...

Thank you Peter, I actually was laughing out loud. You are very kind, thank you, but unfortunately I think I'm hanging up my industry content for a while to work on my own documentary film non...

Wait, wait, wait. That's exactly what we did in part 3 of Revenge. One DP, three different shots, all shot by Bruce Logan ASC and color timed by the same colorist at FilmWorkers Chicago. No...

I like you Nick, I haven't been in the best of health lately and you made me laugh with the shut the fuck up and collect the tapes LOL. I've have to admit in my 29 years in the biz I've been there...

I don't mean to be picky but everyone says democratized and it freaks me out. If cameras were truly available to the masses wouldn't they be socialized? ;-) Anyways, you bring up a good point. I...

Bjorn, winning is always based on ability. The differences are not that great as everyone wants them to be.

exactly you got the message, in some respects the Revenge part goes to what Bruce Logan said that many of these cameras are good enough to make a movie with. Pick one, master it, learn how to light...

part two:
Now this issue about sending a bad message to producers. As a DP or Director you need to fight for the gear you want to use. Stephen Poster has flamed me about this like it's some kind...

Me too, this was my reply to Mitch on DVXuser Part One:

Mitch from what I read in your post you are a pixel peeper because you completely disregard the man and crew in the equation and only refer...

I sometime feel like I'm up against a brick wall, probably because this is really not a forum as much as a rallying point and that's cool.
1. It's not called "the great camera shootout as you...

Bruce explains in part one that the scene is supposed to look dark. He said it's a house you walk into with just a few practices on and a ton of light streaming in from a window. Most people should...

The whole point is that you are getting it all here. the title is REVENGE of the great camera shootout. The idea is that you will see what you want to see--empirical, and you will see what...

you will see that in part three

Let me add a few fact here: first the scene was designed as an incredibly difficult scene to shoot. How many 14 stop range scenes do you want into to. So every camera is fighting to deal with deep...

Rob, you are so correct. Obviously anyone doing professional work would opt for a pro camera (assuming producers don't force them into using cheaper cameras). DP's have to fight for that. But...

Thanks Hector, in part 3 you will see a close shot and a completely different shot, all with no lighting changes between cameras. You will definitely see how these cameras perform one against the...

Thank you and I'm glad you enjoyed part two. I've tried to explain that the shootout is much more then any shootout done before. In part 3 you will see an apples to apples test with no creative...

I couldn't agree with you more Mike. I don't think audience members give a crap about picture quality so long as it's good. I don't even care. I go to a movie to get lost in the story and leave my...

I agree with you that biases can creep in but I'm not making a propaganda film, like Michael Moore does and I think that is obvious. I told you that Bruce Logan made the test and I documented his...
