Hot on the heals of his 2011 world’s best test video of a new camera, director/dp/editor Jonathan Yi brings us a look at Canon’s new Cinema Primes vs. Canon’s L Series Prime lenses.
Warning: Not so safe for work.
Canon Cinema Primes main competition are Zeiss Compact Primes. The ACS, [...]
On set today shooting a portrait for an ongoing ad campaign. This was setup #2. The first was in the adjacent control room.
To build on yesterday’s post, this is an example of what’s so good about professional quality LED lighting. Setup #1 was in the adjacent control room. The LED lights (2 – [...]
Well, I should have known better and if the pace of things was slower, e.g I had more sleep, I would have thought of a very simple way to test first, before buying. The 4-way barn doors for the Litepanels’ 1×1 lights are a major fail. I thought it might be the case [...]
