[Andreas Kiel] “I will implement this feature to the next version of X-Files Pro next week.”
Nice!

My immediate impression of the website. Lots of text. If you are going to use YouTube for the demo reel, disable any ads or related videos.

I don’t know about the different brands, but I do know that it is way, way more convenient to be able to just twist the variable ND to get your exposure, as opposed to screwing and unscrewing filters until you find the right one; at which point the light could change, or you change camera angles, and you have to start all over. Get the variable.

[Andreas Kiel] “s said you should use sparse bundles. They make backups easier and what is more important the reconstruct after a corruption easier. Remember a disk image is just a file!!”
I’ve been using Sparse Images instead of Sparse Bundle Images because I didn’t know what the difference was. Is there any way to convert them to Sparse Bundle Images?

[Bret Williams] “Yes, the pixels aren’t as dense. The smaller the screen, the sharper the perceived image. But if you’ve got a 27″ iMac, you’re probably getting a reasonable determination of whether the image is getting blurry or not.”
Hmm. I was looking at my 17″ Macbook Pro.

[James Cude] “Kinda depends on your budget if that’s to be a real broadcast monitor or a consumer HDTV.”
Would an HDTV give me any benefit over my computer monitors, aside from size?

[James Cude] “Sounds good- but even FCPX can’t overcome physics. I’d recommend checking your 1080p outputs on a high quality 1080p monitor to confirm the scaled resolution is acceptable. Looking great on the desktop is not always the same but ymmv.”
I agree, but at this point I don’t have anything else that will show me a native 1080p signal. My Panasonic 1700W will take it, but it’s a 720p monitor. Any suggestions on a good 1080p monitor? I’ve got HDMI out from my AJA ioXT that is currently unused.

[Nick Griffin] “And not to get political, but when I hear that the founder of the Papa John’s Pizza organization has complained that he’s opposed to the US’ new health care law because it will mean his company may have to raise the price of a pizza a few cents…”
The poor guy. He’s just barely scraping by with his $600 million of net worth, in his 40,000 square foot mansion.

Yes, I have a variable ND filter that is really a must-have for shooting outdoors. Make sure your ISO is turned down all the way. You can also close down the aperture to get the correct exposure, but for the most flexibility, a variable ND is the way to go!
