Yeah I think there will be plenty of available nat light… I just want to be ready for any and all possibilities. Between using flags and one or 2 gelled/chimera 1k’s and NDing the window, I don’t think it will be that much of a hassle.

I definitely agree this would be much easier with HMI’s. But I seriously doubt that will happen. Only one window will be in frame throughout the whole shoot, as they are rather large. That’s why I say I’d rather correct the tungsten… even though it will severely affect the output. The shoot is still a good month or so off so there’s time to consider options. As always budget is an issue.

Unfortunately I think I’m stuck with correcting the tungsten. The room we’re shooting in is basically surrounded by windows so correcting them would be an extremely time-consuming pricy feat, especially with the 207.
-
Gotcha. But if I were to color correct the window as well, wouldn’t that defeat the purpose of color correcting the key if the camera’s color temperature is set to daylight?
-
I considered the double exposure trick. But I have the strong feeling our framing will change often. What I think I’m going to do is just expose for the subject, cover the window in ND-9, and key him with at least one 1k filtered with some half or full blue and go from there. I’d love to have some HMI’s handy but yeah… budget never fits my wishes…

Everything is up to date and I’ve checked multiple times in both Transfer and Browser… Only part 1 of the clip is there, not the 2nd portion. Same thing when I insert the card in the camera and check the BPAV files… no 2nd portion.
Is there any chance the missing portion is still on the card and can be recovered somehow? Also, has anyone ever had an issue with the USB port ejecting the SxS card while importing?
Thanks

I’m thinking about grabbing a .45x converter to mount on the 14-42mm. Has anyone seen one in action or know if it would work decently? 6.3mm (12.6mm) would be more than wide enough for me, even though I am not a fan of the 14-42mm Panasonic. But hey it’s the cheapest option.
-
$30??? That sounds more my speed. Let me know how it is. I’m also considering getting .45x wide angle lens converter for the 14-42mm lens the gh2 came with, but I’m not sure if that would be best.

Some of the lenses on eBay get up there in price. I suppose they’re growing in demand since the word is out that they look great on HDSLRs. I was just wondering if there was a secret to finding good deals on them, but I guess eBay is as good as it gets.

Yep. Figured that out literally 5 minutes after I posted this. My bad. Thanks anyway.
