    From V Raptor to V Raptor X

    Phil can you expand on the extended highlights comment? "when it can be used in your favor" leads me to believe there's some drawbacks. I'm highly considering upgrading our V-raptor to the X for the extended highlights alone as we just shot a 4 camera interior interview setup with a lot of...

    I just downloaded and took a quick look at the IPP2 workflow and the new Premiere Pro and GOLLY GEE it actually didn't take 13 mins to apply the LUTS to my footage. Thank the ADOBE GODS!

    Movi Carbon - GH5s and $45k ?

    I just got an email from Freefly about the Movi Carbon. Looks like they've integrated a GH5s and a Fujinon XK 20-120mm into their new rig. Sounds cool for aerial stuff. but 45k? That seems unreasonable for that sensor. Anyone else seen this? There's supposed to be a big announcement tomorrow...

    Traveling with Grip Gear

    Hey all, We just worked for a VIP client in Kentucky. Our flights were last minute so we didn't have time to call ahead to grip houses to rent gear. We landed on a weekend and literally every grip house was closed until Monday. We needed (2) C-stands. 1 for video village and 1 light. We ended...

    IPP2 And PhilmColor Inaccurate Between REDCINE-X and Premiere Pro

    Hey, I was coloring a project today using REDCINE-X (to add LUTS), saving them to .RMD and importing into Premiere Pro.

    Why would I Upgrade Epic-W in light of DSMC2 Unified?

    So the names Epic and Weapon are gone. Why would I upgrade my Epic-W to Weapon (which doesn't really exist). It's just a slightly faster processor and slightly better frame/data rates. Am I missing something?

    WHY SHOOT ABOVE 1080p for TV COMMERCIALS?

    We filmed this broadcast toy commercial at 6k and 8k. We offered a 4k master to the media buyer, which as far as we can tell, they had no clue what to do with it…. They wouldn’t even take a ~600mb 1080p PRORES file. In their words “our program is rejecting the file because it’s too big”… So...
