Hell everyone, I unfortunately had a little incident on the last project I just shot, and long story short my camera got caught in the way of a sprinkler for about 30-60 seconds before my camera team noticed. It was the end of the shooting day, so we turned the camera off and pulled off all...

Hello everyone, I have a client who is requesting files from a four year old project (their backup of the files is missing apparently). So I dug through my drive storage and found the drive, but its having trouble mounting (it spins up, but doesn't mount and then also gives a warning beep...

Hello everyone, I feel like I'm missing something simple here, but I'm working on a color grade that has a ton of keyframed moves in the edit. However, when I try to create a vignette using a simple shape in the color page, the shape moves to match the keyframes from the edit page? How do I...

Edit: Problem solved!

Hey everyone, Quick general theory question. When it comes to playback performance for the sake of dailies, are data rates the only spec that counts? Meaning, will a hypothetical 150 MB per second negative that's 6k pixels across, play back at the same speed as a hyperpothetical 150MB per...

Hey everyone, I just got done seeing The Greatest Showman and in the main end credits section, the movie listed 6 different film editors, broken up into two separate title cards, with three names on each card. Does anyone know the story behind this? We've all seen this type of crediting with...

Hello everyone, For an upcoming project, the director and I have decided that an 8k Monstro is the right tool for the job because of the physical sensor size, and the R3D workflow. Also, we are shooting a lot of night exteriors, so the insanse sensitivity is a huge plus because it allows me to...

Hello everyone, I am right in the middle of a feature, and on one scene last night, I noticed a really weird and scary artifact. It looked like scan lines going up the frame. I noticed it through the EVF when I put the camera on my shoulder, but just had to shoot because we were running out of...

Hello everyone, I plugged an 18 inch S-R EVF/LCD cable into my OLED EVF and I got an image, but the buttons on the back weren't working. I was on set at the time so I just pulled the cable and replaced it with a different one. However, now that I'm home, I had a chance to test the faulty...

Just a heads up for those who are in the market for a monitor. Just got an email from B and H with this deal. One day only...

Hey everyone, As the title says, is there anywhere that still sells new Dionic HC-X's? Or have they been completely discontinued? Thanks!

Hello everyone, I have a question about the BM mini recorder. How much data can that box push per second? The reason I ask is, I'm running a workflow that is recording from a DVX-200, running into an Atomos recorder, then out to the mini recorder, then into a Mac laptop running Black Magic'a...

Hello everyone, I've got a quick question about zoom lenses. I know that for aperture, if you are wide open, the lens won't perform as well as if you closed down a couple stops. Is there a similar line of logic when it comes to the zoom function of zoom lenses? I.E. - the wide end of zoom...

Hey everyone, So I saw La La Land and was totally stumped by how they pulled off one of their scenes. Hopefully someone on reduser can shed some light! The scene in question is a performance scene between Gosling and Stone in the hills near Griffith observatory during magic hour. The shot is...

Hey everyone, I'm in a jam and need some help. One of the screws that's holding my OLPF in is stripped and I can't for the life of me get it out. Any suggestions from someone who has dealt with this before? Thanks!

Just saw a piece about this lens on Zeiss' Facebook page. http://lenspire.zeiss.com/en/zeiss-lwz-3-light-and-versatile-on-set/

Hello everyone, Quick question. I shot some simple green screen stuff today that is intended to go straight to a custom made, online player. The client has asked me to deliver the keyed files in an Mp4 and an FLV so it can run properly through their system. I have keyed and corrected my...

Spotted at the Hawk booth rocking one of their Hawk65's. Seems to be half magnesium/half carbon fiber?
