From XDCAM EX-1 to what?

[Steve Connor]

Tri-Motor – nice! Any landing you walk away from’s a good one no matter the state of your sphincter.

The footage was shot on HDW790, PDW 700, PDW 350 and EX1 all at 50i, there are also a few shots in there from Phil Bloom who was shooting with the Letus adapter at 25P

The Lenses were Fujinon HA42 HD lens and Canon J21. The HA42 material was shot with a nice O’Connor head and heavy duty legs.

HDCam material was captured via HDSDI to ProRes, XDCam 50mbit material and EX footage were captured native and dropped into a ProRes timeline.

I heard that. I just sent the Vimeo “Liberty Belle” segment link to a friend of mine who is a total B17 gear head. He’s going to drool over it.

Awesome stuff, Mr. Conner.

Very nice footage! The colors, the sharpness, the composition. – About the interlaced and fast movements -discussion, as long as you follow the moving objects with the camera, you will of course have no problems. (This is also why we always follow the fast moving cars etc. in action movies, instead of standing still and watching them fly by. – Between 2:51 and 2:53 in you Flying Legends trailer, you will see the negative effect of the interlaced video if you look at the big ariplane standing in the front when the small plane (that the camera follows) is passing in the background. The plane standing on the ground would look much better if the video was shot in 50p.

We have a B-17 here in town. The “Sentimental Journey”. “Journey” is doing a summer tour around the MidWest this summer. It costs $25 a ride and they have a waiting list a mile long.

The TriMotor left for OshKosh on Saturday.

It’s nice to know that the “Journey” is still airworthy and flying. The last time It was here (several years ago) it was being used in a movie and those in the know informed me that the B17 was flying directly to the air museum the next morning and that was supposed to be its last journey. Myself and another enthusiast friend drove down to Boundary Bay airport the next morning to see it take off because we both thought we’d never see another one fly again.

The Sentimental Journey still lives!

The rides cost $425, not $25. Sorry bout that

Great stuff Steve, the camerwork was brilliant, the subject hardly ever strayed from the centre of the frame. What encoder will you be doing your Blu-Ray with and what players will there be to guarantee playing what you burn? No menus I presume though, I’m told they won’t be possible, not that I care, just want to have the movie playing!

I’m not decided about the Blu-Ray duplication yet, I’m exploring a number of options.
