    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.

  • I also would love a plug in that turns chicken manure into chicken pie but I have not found one yet.

    🙂

  • 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.

  • 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.

    Prem Pro is a RAM hog so I suggest that the minimum requirement is there for a reason.

    Sounds longer than I would expect from my system. What specs ( Computer, RAM, processor etc )are you running the application from.
