Sony EX-1 Video Tutorials?
Hi,
I was wondering if there are any free video tutorials on the Sony EX-1 available online?
Thanks everyone.

More of an overview rather than a tutorial but at 75 minutes it’s very thorough.

Mine is not a free EX1 tutorial- but worth every penny. I mean you spent thousands on the camera or hundreds on the rental, learning how to use it is worth $74.99 isn’t it? 🙂

But how do you use XDCAM video with Windows Movie Maker and shouldn’t there be a free tutorial for that (wink)?

It’s not free (you get what you pay for), but you really ought to consider Doug Jensen’s DVDs for the EX1. You won’t find anything better. https://vortexmedia.com/DVD_EX1.html
Also, you might want to consider Doug’s Field Guide for the EX1.

Doug did a great job, but I got
to ask him what he meant when
he said he reccomends to er on the
side of over exposure!
I’ve found better forgiveness when there is still
detail in those 0s and 1s and protect
the subject\’s highlights. -
Of course each situation is unique but if you’re using a Cine settings (such as 4) the curve at the top decreases the chance of white loosing the detail (hitting the ones) while you can generally bring down mids and blacks. Having to bring up mids and blacks increases noise.

This tutorial on YouTube by Alister Chapman (ingeniustv) is probably the best I’ve seen on the gamma curves for the EX
