So what's so special about the glidecam?... will it give better stabilization?...

I'm looking to buy a ver good dslr stabilizer, one which I can use for very subtle hand held movements, even as a replacement for an slider, so far I've got 3 options, the glidecam 2000 which is expensive, the flycam and the hague motion, will the hage motion or the flycam give same results as...

thanks, I really don't know too much about FCP, so what's the shortcut for audio transitions?, specifically for fades?... I could look for them but I'm in the middle of a project which I need to finish for tomorrow...

I can't add a cross dissolve option to the audio tracks when I do a right click, I can with video, but I don't know if I did something which changed my audio options, I could do it manually, but it would take a little bit more time... I hope someone can help me...

Don't forget the Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8... that must one of the widest and fastest lenses at the moment don't you guys think??..

Oh, so basically both lenses have the same optics or similar ones?... the only difference would be, as you say the crop sensor... I guess there's no need to pay around 200$ if I don't own a 5D... thanks

I am thinking on buying the Tokina 11-16 f/2.8, Don't you guys think it's the best wide angle lens out there??... also, I'm looking for a zoom lens with a constant f/stop, but I don't know which would be the best lens to buy, the options are, the canon 17-55 f/2.8 ($1180) or the canon...

This is my third post in a row...haha... but anyway, one last question, this one is about exporting process... so if I finish my project, and I export it using Quicktime no self-contained movie, Will this give no compression at all?... Will this be the same as, let's say, nesting?... Would it be...

This converter is just great... I actually use it to convert my T2i clips to an Apple Pro Res Codec... It's faster than FCP... but anyway... I'm having a little issue with it, everytime I want to convert from 1080 to a lower resolution, I get black lines on the side of the video... Does anybody...

I'll try that one next time, as for now, I haven't noticed any quality lost... everything seems to go fine...

That's fine... but sometimes after exporting to FCP, I add new clips to the timeline and again send the sequence to Apple Color... and since there are a lot of clips (rock music video) I really don't want to copy and paste them, I want to keep the editing in one sequence...

Oh.. that's why it's so complicated to keep in focus your shot with the 5D at night... or under low light conditions... and what about the rolling shutter??.. Does the Full Frame Sensor makes it less noticeable?... or is the same issue as the APSC sensor??...

I hope someone can answer me this quick question... So, If I resend my timeline to Apple Color after getting it back to FCP... and color grade again... Will I lose any quality?... I mean can I resend the same timeline a dozen of times, back and forth without losing quality??...

It seems the advantages aren't that good because of the focusing issue you guys said... I rather buy a couple of fast lenses... and BTW, what does stop down the lens means??...

Well.. it's not like I'm going to be shooting the whole day with my lens not mounted properly.. but it's the only way to make zoom video shots, for now... without getting a variable exposition too noticeable... and I don't know but, those lenses are too expensive for me, I rather get a good...
