    4/3 Lens Selection

    Clockwork, I've got a link for you to the EPL-1 manual. http://www.olympusamerica.com/files/oima_cckb/E-PL1_Instruction_Manual_EN.pdf I've found while diving through the extensive menus on the EPL-1 that the auto focus manual focus option is only available under a couple of the control dial...

    4/3 Lens Selection

    Cool link to the Jared Abrams site. Very informative and exact. Prime lenses are the way I'm going at this point and the cine primes are most appealing to me for the exact reason that their design is aimed at the goals I have in mind for my production. I'm already experiencing the hunting around...

    4/3 Lens Selection

    Bill, I went through and checked out the Carl Zeiss primes (the CP.2s for MFT). http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/search?atclk=Mount%2fFormat+Type_Micro+4%2f3-Mount&sts=ma&N=4219636603&Ntt=zeiss+cine+prime And I also checked out the lens reviews on DPreview.com and also checked out your links...

    4/3 Lens Selection

    Awesome. That's cool, man. I've been wanting to check out some old Legacy stuff at my local camera shop and some people I know that are trying to unload some old glass that's in really prestine condition (I feel more comfortable if I can put it in my hand and look at it.) Man, you're not going...

    4/3 Lens Selection

    Thanks, Bill. This is exactly what I was looking for. I've still got to go through and look at the Nikon and Sigma lenses to see if some of the primes are what I'm after.

    4/3 Lens Selection

    MFT Lens Selection Hello. I've got a question about my EPL1 and lens selection. I want to know about hooking up third party lenses via adapter. Do I have this right? Sigma for Nikon mount + Nikon to MFT adapter + adapter to camera. Will I still have full control over the lens as if I were...

    Wide and fast lens for GH2.

    Man, sorry to hear about your postponement. Scheduling, huh? It is a tough one. However, I've been checking out the Black Magic, too, over in the other thread and I've got to say... :clap:... Very slick. However, its definitely out of the range of my budget. That footage is nice. Very haunting...

    Wide and fast lens for GH2.

    Yeah, man. I've been looking at that one too. Its going on my Christmas list. I watched the video links over this past week and I was really impressed. I also checked out the other ones provided by Bill and followed through to Vitaliy's website. Very interesting. How's your shoot going?

    Wide and fast lens for GH2.

    Thanks, I already know that light doesn't power the camera. I was asked by brunerww what I was thinking when I made the statement and that's what I was thinking. I was also thinking about a million other things at the same time. I'm not depending on kickstarter to fund everything. I'm planning...

    Wide and fast lens for GH2.

    I thought I might need different glass because if I were to increase the horse power on an engine in order to acquire a larger output I would need larger intake (more air and fuel coming into the engine) so I thought I may need more light coming into the camera and hitting the sensor in order...

    Looking for a specific camera recommendation

    Go Pro is a digital camera which captures excellent footage. If you've ever watched the X Games you've seen the Go Pro in action. You cannot mount a DSLR to a helmet and walk around expecting to get a steady shot. If you ever accomplish such a feat, you will for sure make the cover of every...

    500 to spend, looking for a good dslr camera

    You don't have to piece a camera together. You should be buying nothing more advanced than an entry level interchangeable lens camera. This comes in a kit lens/camera body combination. They are sold as one and arrive in a beautiful box with directions for use with a user's manual...
