Hey Rob:
Thanks for the reply. Yes actually i do know how to expose . been in this high end side of the biz for quite a while . I generally shoot RED and Alexa these days on Ads.
Im a nikon lover so i decided to take the DSLR plunge with a D7k since i needed a new still camera to retire my d80 anyway, and by retire i mean give it to my sister who annoy the living crap out of me hoggin the damn thing any way LOL.
Why i asked is because as i said , my trained eye sees stuff that others dont see. ive shown the footage to others who thinks it looks fantastic and think the camera is amazing and so do i but i see noise in certain areas i dont see in other cameras. and yes ive seen the “great camera shoot out”. i know for a fact the compression rate in the d7K is much higher that canons. so maybe thats the problem
Post gear , we use FCP with Kona LHi for editing , CS5 suite for mtn/gfx, we outsource 3D but use Maya and C4D from time to time and are in the middle of transitioning to scratch. and are looking to go back to AVID 6 now that things are open and nice and we transcode to prores, prores HQ & 444 depending on the project needs …..
use mpeg stream clip for batch transcode.Oh and we just got one of those sony OLED’s (holy shit) is all i have to say
this is the kind of stuff we do

I use these in my D7000

works like a charm, has never dropped frames and we are dealing with data rates that are low.
Get yourself some good glass tho, thats where u gotta spend your money. Nikon Glass and the Nikon F to MFT adapter. After that its what u put in front the lens is what matters…..

i Own a D7000, Fantastic camera …..
I bought it to mess about with the DSLR fad …… love it to death, However …… the only thing that pisses me off is … If you want to change aperture setting … you can’t do it in live view mode which sucks.You first have to come out of live view go to F(whatever) then go back into live view to see if that works for you …. Annoying !!!!!!!! But it images Sweet…..
But What we all have to remember is that these cameras are really Still Cameras that happen to do video really well …… nothing more. Even saying that … i used the D7000 on a RED shoot for an ad i did earlier this year .. i dare u to find the DSLR shotsBut if i had to get one of these little animals for video it would be the GH2. love its aesthetic and functionality …

OK so that was scary…
Just downloaded a trial version of MC and after starting it up i actually rememberd most of the keyboard commands …… no i dont have a colored avid keyboard .. LOL
The last time i edited on an Avid MC was back in the ABVB days in 2000, wow. I was truly an AVID snob back then, i spit on version 1.0 of FCP .
ahh the good old days
