DFT 55MM “skin smoother”. Use it on a video diva I shoot.

Hmmm…. I’ve always SAID split, but now I’m wondering – are the front & rear 400 ports same bus? If so, yes indeed on same bus. Though I always try never to have both on at same time (a no-no I know).

Using AJA setup. But often I switch to DV input & change to a custom. But before going back to IO I load an AJA Easy. Sometimes it works, sometimes not.

On another thread people talked about successfully using cheap ($100) laser range finders as a focus assist. Great range, dial in focus. Done. Hmmm…. bit of Velcro on the handle, tiny range finder sits on top…

But the IO is sending video out from FCP. It’s only in Capture where the “preview” in the Capture window doesn’t work.

Run, don’t walk, away from this “retailer”. HORRIBLE experiences posted online. CAVEAT EMPTOR

I’m always one to go with sticks if I can. Can’t help you on the “style” of the edit – I don’t have any knowledge of what a coach would be looking for. I wouldn’t even know what’s a good play when I saw it.

My god man…. NO CATERING?!?! Have you lost your mind! That’s no way to shoot a Film…errr… video. Blasphemous heathens. And in a Public Park.
Seriously – LOVED it… great work on the fly. (dug the title treatment, sfx, music too)
Were any squirrels harmed during the taping of this Film… errr… video?

Not a soccer/sports shooter per se, but I’d go with 1 wide covering the play with about 1/2 field, and the other two on MS of the “stars”. Designate 1 of the 2 “star cams” to switch to the defense player when the ball heads that way. The 2nd of the 2 can decide with the play which offense to cover. Try to get your WS up on the top bleachers. Since soccer really covers the whole field, I’d go with the 2 MS cams around midfield. I’d STRONGLY RECOMMEND having all 3 cams start together, and NOT STOP until tape runs out. Since you’re not covering “the game” you don’t have to worry about a gap in coverage while all change tape @ 1 hour. This’ll make it WAY WAY easier to edit as a “multicam”.

Thanks Mitch! So using just the onboard controls gives satisfactory results as well? This is looking like the baby to buy for my work…
