QUOTE(ocz @ May 22 2012, 12:52 AM) I did not use any stabilizers as i can't handle it more than 5 minutes. Its damn heavy. LOL. by the way,most of my shots are using 4ft sliders and monopod. My mistake, should use the word "support". Hehe. I saw a shaky vid of akad from a local videographer. Very unprofessional.  One question though, all of your vids seemed to be dark, is that your style? This post has been edited by EightPhantomz: May 22 2012, 08:38 AM |

QUOTE(ocz @ May 22 2012, 12:18 PM) LOL. Shaky with styles,is a bit acceptable,but shaky without styles,is totally unacceptable. most of the video i've seen,from amateur photographer are using tripod,instead of monopod. The one that I saw surely no style one. Hehe.Some of the videos are originally dark,some are edited to dark. So dark is your style lah? OK. I'm thinking of getting a separate LED lights to brighten up my subjects. Ryan Connolly from FilmRiot advises to crank up the iso abit from normal before shooting. It might not look good on screen but its easier to edit bright vid later than to brighten up a dark vid. After some trials, I agree with Ryan.

Handling a stabilizer is indeed tiring eh. Need to catch up with subject's walking speed. Need to ask to slow down, which for me; beats the spontaneity already. But I dont regret getting the Hague MMC. Just need more practice.

QUOTE(Calvin Pixels @ May 29 2012, 11:05 PM) Video shoot at cosplay events, Controlling "effects" slowly take lots of muscle strength (even mine setup is light weighted). Oh its your vids that amduser posted before. Nice choreograph! Cosplayers sure a nice bunch to play with.Wedding (did 1 time only) / Dinner functions I don't use steadycam often using more on monopod. Teambuilding can be a lot harder actually since I usually shoot 2 days straight full day. 20 sec max recording time (depends on situations) Understood what you meant by controlling effects. Its surely is tiring. Need to bend and lift alot.

Build it based on "Silver Flyer" Just wondering, have you tried a market stabilizers? It will take time to balance it for first timers. Mine sharing the photos of your DIY stabilizer?

QUOTE(AhBoy~~ @ Jun 9 2012, 06:12 PM) Thanks~ will do make searching for DSLR, are those entry level DSLR good? Those Canon 550D/600D are very good and quite common Video DSLRs even in America and Europe. Just search on youtube. You'll see alot of it. But then, best is to know your budget first.  |

Yup like what VinceCheong mentioned, the H1 body is very sensitive as the build is very plastic-y. For a normal audio recording, I would suggest the H2n. Only around RM540. Go for H4n only for the xlr input.

QUOTE(ocz @ Nov 7 2012, 11:29 AM) Can i use any of the Zoom mic,mount it on top of my camera,and sync the audio with my camera while recording? Sorry not sure about that as I'm using m43 camera(no external audio inputs) to record videos. What I normally do is to play both recorder and video and snap my fingers or clap my hands at the beginning. Similar function as film slate/clapperboard. Then at home I will sync the audio+video using audio editing software, using the snap sound+me snapping finger(video) as the entry point. Got this from youtube tutorials. You might be able to find it. |
