It’s quite clear, he put a period and then said “. sRGB or Adobe RGB for photos are essentially the same thing – a way of conforming image data from the sensor to a space.”

Robbie Carman“sRGB or Adobe RGB for photos are essentially the same thing”
Adobe RGB and sRGB are two different absolute color spaces, they are mapped in a totally different way. They vary widely in “size” of colors they are capable of reproducing, thats why RGB on a computer monitor looks duller than sRGB.

Not really but, there are different sizes of color space, the Canon 7D has a color space of 4.2.0 I use Cineform Neoscene to transcode my footage to a .avi file and Cineforms codec increases the color space to 4.2.2 This is similar to sRGB and RGB in that RGB is a bigger color space than sRGB.

It’s not about exposure like the zebra bars do, it is about light ratios, so you can give a studio shot some shape and modeling of the light and shadows within excepted tolerances.

I have a Sekonic L-358, I bought it for studio flash for still photography and it works extremely well. It will also work in cine mode for filmmaking and I have used it a couple of times on set for double checking ratios. I have just got to know my lights and camera well that I now eyeball the light ratios for stills and movies.

If you can give some level of training and work experience, then offering this to a film student or someone looking to gain “real” experience I think is fair.

A wide aperture is important, the more light you can give the sensor the lower the iso you can use and get less digital noise on your footage in dimmer light. I have the Canon 50mm f1.4 and I’m thinking of getting a wide prime as well.

I use Nikon manual AI lenses on a 7D with an Ebay adaptor, they are very good. Nikon lenses also have a hard stop on the focus wheel, unlike Canon lenses, so you do know when you have arrived at the end of the focus.

I’m really sorry for you it must be very disappointing. My solution stems back to being a stock photographer and having $ invested in a shoot.
I use small capacity cards and change them out regularly during a shoot as I fill them up. I have 4GB and 8GB and lots of them.
