alw 0 #4 January 20, 2006 QuoteIs there any way to get a comparable result with digital? Lens, Format, Chip Size all contribute. The old saying, "You get what you pay for." is true here. But at what point are the diminishing returns? I shoot video with a Canon XL2, Sony PC 1000, Sony TRV 27, and Canon ZR90. You can tell the difference in a $4000 camera with $1000 lense and a $1000 camera with a $150 dollar lense, but with post producing they both contribute to the content of the project. --------------------------------------------- Every day is a bonus - every night is an adventure.

pope 0 #5 January 20, 2006 QuoteIn professional videos (i.e.: Crosswind) what makes the image so clear. Is it a matter of camera? Lens? Both? yes, yes, and yes. . . to begin with. Add to that very inportant things like skill, stabilizers, planning shots. Format has a lot to do with it, for sure. Film is still king, IMHO, but certainly not the easiest/cheapest to work with in these sports! Crosswind is one of my all time favortie jumping flicks. It's a shame I have to watch it on DVD and not on a big screen! Fucking inspirational film! cheers Patrick! pope Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, of course a good camera does not mean a good cameraman, but it's only that when I look at some of my shots, I regret not having a better image, because everything seems to be there for a "Crosswind moment". Anyway, I'm far from being at the level of putting a flat top pro and a huge HDV cam on my head, but I was just wandering if such a setup would actualy pay off... Thanks guys (Yeah, Crosswind IS awesome...)All work And no skydive Makes Alexis A dull boy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
