Well, I ordered my follow focus unit not long ago, waiting for it to arrive! mattebox on the other hand, a bit too much to pay for currently >.<

P.S, how much did you get your lilliput 5" minitor for?



On the other hand,
Here's a video I made do enjoy

Well, china products are booming nowadays!. Lilliput and Ruige are quite reliable stuffs they make
Well, then again, a mattebox isn't really that crucial since I dont have any ND filters yet, and I mainly do this as a hobby, and haven't the time to use it to generate some pocket money yet. >.<

The follow focus is roughly RM2k plus shipping and what nots i guess, http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Lanparte-LPT-Rig...=item257125c676



And yeah that's a Follow Focus unit allright, with a rod system to hold it in place, it's about Rm1.5k thereabous just for it i think.... Tegas Broadcasting Sdn. Bhd. do sell it

Looking good, but If you can machine it, I'd suggest you cut the curve arm at the middle point, and machine it in such a way to make it foldable... so you can have more finer adjustments

I old school... I'm suing D90! ...lol...

Kill the AF, go MF all the way! it's the future lol... For beginners, I recommend using any wide angled lens, you'll have lesser 'swaying' motion video capture for an amateur stabilizer rig user... and depending on what you're focusing at, I usually set my focal distance from 1 meter onwards till infinite... even using at 18mm (before crop) is already wide enough

Waa.. sounds interesting but i no have no HDslrs >.< D90 already outdated
But I dont mind in anyways helping out

AG-HMC150 fuyoh

woooi!!! don't tempt me la!. I've already set my eyes on the FS700, now you poison people wiht the FS100
Hahhaha, Why letting it go? it's such a nice camera!!

hahahha I just realised MotionInStyle is Penang based...guess i can't try as editor too...

But great work from them!

Gee, really appreciate what you said man! Thanks But there's a lot more vids out there that's better . Was rushing to complete this for a competition, during exam period alsp haahaha got some bad scenes here and there la . But really, thanks a lot

... what's the inside joke... I feel left out LOL

Mine... just friends , gear also friends... support also friends... making this with friends friends make the world go round

YA ya ya!!!... although it's on the expensive side, it's definitely worth investing on this to get the perfect balance/dynamic balance... with the ability to fine tune

Interesting DIY la I must say. But for MYR200, I could buy a 2ft slider, better crafted, aviation grade alloy track with a lot more feather sensitive movement (Ok, ter-exaggerated the feather sensitive la)... but it'd save you the time to make your own self, and can have dampening ability too...
Opteka... Proaim... SlideKamera.... google those

All in all, not trying to diss you or anything, but great diy mate

Hi there ArtcoreWarlock, usually Malaysia is very one eye closed sorta thing (not a good note either actually lol)

But to answer your question, Followfocus/Rigs/Kits/15-mm Rod systems (for now) is/can be classified under photographic accessories, which is not subject to import tax, but usually if you ship with DHL or UPS, they clear customs very fast.

BTW you got PM'ed

Cute diy lol... but it's still very restricted la, you're lock down to 1/50 to 1/100... before you get interlacing... lol.... or go jalan pasar, ask them to construct an LED litepanel look-alike for you LOL

the reason being is because what you're recording at on board the D90 and what you're recording on the external recorder are in different sample frequencies... the D90 has CRAP audio, lol.. like crap crap.. imagine you're recording the SAME video at 23.967fps and 29.976 fps... by the end of the video, you'll have different length, and the clip will "lari" or not be in sync...

same with audio sample rates, it's like fps for video, for audio it's sample frequency...

what the d90 records at is 11kHz whereas, probably your external recorder is probably recording at 48kHz (Standard common format)... 44.1kHz.. or probably, but unlikely 96kHz....

So you can imagine syncing a 48kHz audio to a footage with 11kHz audio... .. one way is you can conform your timeline to be in 48kHz or the same audio frequency as your external, instead of allowing your timeline on your NLE software to conform to your D90's audio sample rate

Hope i'm making sense or speaking england... lol

OK. just imagine this, D90 sucks at recording video+Audio (but i still love that camera)
NLE= Non Linear Editing Software, a program which lets you edits you videos... eg, Final Cut Pro, Adobe Premiere, Sony Vegas, Windows Movie maker.
You dont need to change your framerate, you have to change your editing software to conform to the audio sample rate of your external recorder.... Imagine this.. Your D90 speaks an Audio Language ABC, your external recorder speaks AUdio Language XYZ... you can't match both audio language together because they are completely different... that's why you get your audio offsync..

You have to set your editing program to Audio Language XYZ so that it can match with your external audio file


It's called a Time Slate or a Clapperboard It syncs everything together, plus gives you the scene/take information of that current shoot.

It's Malaysia after all... anyways, it's not tricky, it's how you play with words... Camera spare parts are subject to tax, but if it's listed as a camera equipment/accessory or a photographic equipment/accessory, it should not be subject to taxes, from all the past imports I have. It's a very gray area for now.

Hi all, I'm also new here PS, nice armada OCZ
Anyways... something new to share. My friend made this solely for the purpose of compositing for his vgx class assignment. Helped him out for fun
