I checked it out. The original footage straight out of my camera, the MOV file, is actually very clear. It doesn't leave any ghostly shadows behind. When I converted it into MPEG with the NeoScene, and edited it in Adobe Premiere, the outcome was different. I believe the Premiere settings...

oops. did not pay any attention to that. I was more focused on the aperture than the shutter speed. What shutter speed setting do you suggest then?

I have been using my 5D Mark II for about a year now, and I am satisfied with the quality of the photos and videos. About a year ago, I was advised to use CineForm to convert the MOV files into something editable, so I did. But I am still left with some questions, and I hope I can get some...

After long long days of just cereal and PB&J diet.. I did not lose a single pound, and I was able to afford a friggin Canon 5D Mark II. It's awesome. But, here is my question. I used my XH-A1 camera for many occasions and I never had an editing problem. The video files converted from the...

Hi. I have recently done a wedding video with my XH-A1. I shot the whole thing in 24P, and everything went fairly okay. In the editing process, I did a slow motion of the bouquet toss from the side capturing the whole of the bride and the ladies trying to catch the bouquet. Now, the problem...

my goodness. thank you for such thorough answer.

and um.. I know this may be absurd but I still have to ask. When you say put on a 35mm lens, do I buy a lens that is only 35mm or buy a lens that the 35mm falls in the range that it provides?

LiveLens active lens mount for Canon EF lenses This is what I have. I have mounted my very basic lens that was attached to my DSLR and I can see inside the lens. I mean my viewing window is right in the middle if I divided the screen by 9 rectangles. How do I troubleshoot this one?

ah ha. thank you for the quick response. I went to Canon website and they offer only one type of camcorder lens. I should be able to mount any type of EF lenses that they normally sell for DSLR cameras, right?

A very newb question. I wanted to establish a film-like look, so I purchased a Redrock M2 Encore cinema adapter kit. It seems like I put everythin together, but I think I need another lens. It is in the order of 1. canon xh-a1 camera body, 2. lens that come with it, 3. red rock cinema...

Hi. I am preparing to start my first project, and I realized that I haven't thought about the lighting at all. The setup will be a all white room with a white couch. I do not own a lighting kit, but I am looking to purchase something like starter's kit. What kind of lighting kit would offer...

I took some footages of my friends, co-workers, and my nephew with my XH-A1. They are shot in different light settings, and all in auto-focus mode. One thing I noticed about all three videos is that I don't really have a very clear picture. What I want is a crystal clear picture. The videos...

Thank you very much for your answers.

I have Intel Core2 Duo, and 4 gigs of RAM. I am using Windows Vista.

Actually, after all that generating peak file process, I have hard time trying to view the imported video. The sound would play normally, but the image is not moving. Has anyone else had a similar experience?
