Any PC109 camera flyers?

[rylord 0]

Just wondering if I could get some advice from any of the camera flyers that are using the Sony PC109? What settings do you use on your PC109 camcoder?Do you use the Easy Handycam mode? If not, what manual settings are you setting your PC109 to when jumping it to film tandem videos? I'm looking for the optimal settings to get the best quality video footage.

Thanks in advance.

well it depends a little on what lense do you use
i use pc 109E and black eye (0.25) lense.

I set it on aoutofocus and point the camera at the object that is about 3m or more away and then, pointed at the same object, i turn the manual focus on and leave it as it is (focused).
I don't use any program AE or effects or anything. Everything else is on auto.

But i still have to experiment with tandems, because so far i only did FreeFly and it works perfect for that.

I just soom all the way out, press the infinity button and it is good for go. I use a .6 standard Sony lense
