That's what they do with XL1's also. That is what is expected.

Mushiman

It seems to me, they supply wholesale to other stores too.

There is a market stall near where i live that sells weapons, swords etc at cheap prices, maybe this is where he gets them from...

Mushiman

John, it's a pro camera, you dont see film cameras with LCD screens do you?

Mushiman

Yeah, Ornsack that would have been cool! Ian came with us too, so it would have been the whole DDP crew in attendance. lol

Thanks reflective cinematics!

Well i wouldn't be interested in the Bin Laden images anyway. I think it's not the most interesting of images...

Mushiman

Yes.

Me, and i'm 'Steve'.

Yeah well, thats why lighting a scene is important!

I was using the Panasonic NV-MX500, that i advertised for sale on this forum & i sold it on eBay.

It's a true amateur that chooses a camera for how it looks & not how it shoots.....

Mushiman

:no: Now, now children. Settle down.

Mushiman

Thanks!

We're off to shoot a little film with it. Don't expect the next Robbery or Alien Dawn, just a little practise using the camera on location.

Although we have something decidably cool in the offing, maybe next week....

Mushiman

The guy in the shop will have pushed the sale anyway, you know what it's like, the sales person will have senced that he had money & sold loads of extras with it.

Mushiman

another way is have the actor walk real slow, in slow motion, then speed the footage up & everything else should be faster.

Mushiman

Well, he's a photographer & he went to Alaska to shoot a video project, so maybe he got the extra batteries becuae A) They'd come in handy & B) He's loaded.

Mushiman

I got it for Ã‚Â£1,400. It was used once for a project. It has 5 batteries, Wind muffler, a canon UV, ND & polerising filter set, a conon mini tripod for standing it on & had a pack of 5 unopened miniDV tapes too! Bargain... Looking on the original recept, he payed Ã‚Â£240 for the 4 extra ba...

Just to let you guys know, DDP now has an XL1. We're looking forward to shooting 'The Plan' & others & as you know, the picture will be great!

Mushiman

Yeah we was thinking of having Joe McDowell appear in the film, but it's too early to say.

P.S. I got the XL1

Mushiman

It's not just the two of us.

We have a guy who works for BBC writing it & starring it. We're not going to be in it, just maybe a cameo.
Because it's a feature, we need to remain behind the cameras.

Mushiman

Well, we're not actors, we just need someone in the film.

Thanks Random Cat, we were going for the Jerry Bruckheimer action movie style.

We are going to be working on our first feature film next summer. We're going to London for an XL1 tomorrow! YAY!

Mushiman

John, thanks for the comments. The Robbery was written & scripted as a planned film. Global Hawk, was something we did for practice & for me to work on, as i'd just has an operation & was off work for a month. We basically got the cameras out & tried to think of an idea. There was NO...

Mushiman

Cool!!

Mushiman

i said it the catwoman/batman film thread too.

Mushiman

You two, Truggy & Rheborn are off topic.

This topic is about The Catwoman/Batman film that CMBMovies is making.

I find it hard to believe, but it would be cool.

Mushiman

It would take too long to explain.....
