    Focus Breathing/Distortion in Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning

    Did anyone else notice the breathing\distortion in Mission Impossible during a rack focus between characters? What a surprise for me. The lenses used were Panavision C-, D-, E-, and H-Series.

    Are there no focus mark stickers for the Nucleus-M?

    It seems like the Nucleus-M is pretty popular on many lower budget sets, so aren't there any marking disk stickers or interchangeable pre-printed disks yet? It seems pretty simple, especially for common lenses like the Sigma Cines, Zeiss CP.3s, or Rokinons. Is there nothing like the ARRI Hi-5...

    Shooting through front windshield

    Usually cars are on sleds with duvetyne or solids covering the front windshield to get good driver shots. Are there any tricks, that are safe, to shooting drivers without terrible glare on a low indie budget? Anything like an anti-reflective lens skirt that works on the angled front...

    Hollyland vs Teradek Bolt

    I was recently on an indie set that used the Hollyland monitor transmitter and the whole crew turned their iphones into monitors. I thought this was pretty useful. My Teradek Bolt system has worked great, but gotten old and banged up. How would you compare? Latency and dependability are 99% of...

    Why are there 2 Color Space & Gamma Curve options in PP

    In PP (effects control, master .r3d tab), using DSMC1 Legacy, I have noticed there are always 2 options for Color Space and Gamma Curve. The top ones seem to be active and have options in the drop down menu, but the bottom selections only show the IPP2 RedWideGamutRGB and Log3G10. Anyone know...

    Follow Focus Motor Slipping

    M-One, Heden M26, and Tilta Nucleus M motors all slip. I always have to press the motor against the gears when calibrating. Does anyone have a good solution besides cranking really hard on the rod clamp, gaff tape on the rod, or a pongo cable to the opposite rod?

    How fast lens needed to shoot Dragon sensor at night?

    My Angenieux Optimo 16-42mm is fantastic, but the T2.9 doesn't cut it at night with the Epic-x Dragon sensor. I have lenses at 2.1 and 1.8. Is this usually good or would most of you add lights? Would rather not go above ISO 1600. I have Aputure 300D's and Source 4s. No streetlights, only house...

    Full Frame Prime Research - Medium Budget ~$5,000/lens or less

    I haven't purchased glass in over 5-6 years. It looks like a Full Frame Prime war is heating up and we are going to be the winners. I purchased the Schneider Xenon FF primes which I love, but they only released the 35mm, 50mm, and 75mm at first, so I bought an Angenieux Optimo 16-42. Its a very...

    Anyone clean or oil a tripod

    I have an O'Connor 1030D with 30L carbon fiber legs. I just finished shooting a feature and the legs seemed sticky sliding up and down the top support. Also, the 100mm ballhead became squeaky when leveling. Does anyone know if you just clean these with soap and water or is there any other...
