If the sky is white you have nothing to CC so you need other options.
You could try overlaying a blue grad with opacity
or try keying in a blue if the white will luma key out
or try a garbage matte with a grad blue layer beneath.

December 17, 2005 at 6:42 pm in reply to: Anyone with a Canon XL2. Im thinking of buying, but want to see some footage shot on it.My preference for the DVX ( and I assume the HVX when I can get my hands on one) is the image “look” that it produces. It is different to the Canon ands the Sony “looks. I am a film cameraman but I can really relate to the DVX image .
Functionally and practically I also preferred the DVX. Little things like the Manual Iris Control swayed me. I could not cope with the way this control was set up on theCanon for example with its delayed response. The wider lens also was a factor for the DVX.
Another factor is the sound quality from the DVX is superior according to many reports and reviews I have read.
Weight : All cameras get heavy in a hand held mode so no worry to me. I do a lot of hand held interviews. My camera is a bit heavier also because I have a full production mattebox set up on it.
The dvxusers forum has everything else you need to know to help you with your decision including samples and tests. Good luck.

December 15, 2005 at 11:19 pm in reply to: Anyone with a Canon XL2. Im thinking of buying, but want to see some footage shot on it.Go over to the following link (DVX User)and you will find all sorts of discussion and info including screen grabs and clips shot with Panasonic DVX, Canon XL1 & 2 and Sony DV cameras.
There is also a side by side comparative test of these cameras if you look for it.
I am a DVX fan and user so I am biased that way but I did test them all myself before I purchased one.
Hope this helps (and the link works)

You do not need to use it unless you ever do broadcast something – the Station will require it to be “Safe” and technically correct in other areas as well eg audio levels. They wont do it for you.

No , you need a plug-in.
You need the Automatic Duck plug-in. Expensive but works great and will pay for it self quickly.

google up DVdate (premiere pro plug in)
Works great – its less than $50
