audio sync problem with DVX100B

[Redford Givens]

It’s also why it’s always good practice to let the camera roll for five seconds before any significant action begins and five seconds after the action ends in any shoot where you work off a script.

If you shoot events this practice may not not always be possible, but even then you can still do it most of the time.

We are learning. The batch capture is definitely an improvement over trying to get the entire reel. It saves time by eliminating shots that were bad for other reasons. By capturing a few seconds on both ends of clips, there isn’t much cutting to do.

If I were younger, the thought of going pro in this business would appeal. As it is I’m an old codger who takes One on One lessons from Apple and comes to forums like this to solve specific problems.

Manuals sometimes help, but they can drive one to madness trying to find the specific solution you want.

The people who write manuals could do the world a service by inserting a comprehensive GLOSSARY at the BEGINNING of the book. Manuals often use hard to understand Hollywood terms or professional definitions without much explanation.
