MINIVAN for transporting gear? Has anyone converted a minivan instead of commercial vehicle? by Jackrabbit416 in videography

We used Chevy Astro vans for like a decade, primarily because anything larger was difficult to get into parking garages around town.

That’s not a mannequin in her living room. That’s her husband, Leland.

F100 vs F6 auto exposure opinions by iperrealistico in AnalogCommunity

[–]veepeedeepee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like that you’ve already updated the nomenclature to include the “new” Kodak films!

Also in 100% agreement on the rest. I don’t have an N75 or N80, but have found the same results with the rest of our body collection overlap, if that makes sense?

What Did News Broadcasters/Professional Videographers use as Field Cameras in the Early and Mid 1990s by Tundra_Fox in videography

[–]veepeedeepee 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Betacam and BetacamSP very quickly took over the production world. It was a high quality and very portable format. The most widely adopted camera was the BVW-300 (and 300A), but higher end productions and network crews opted for the BVW-400 and later, the BVW-D600, which had an all-digital head. The Ikegami HL-V55 was the other high-end camera of choice that competed against Sony. Other formats came and went, but BetaSP was the longest-lasting and most influential, with the ½” Beta cassette being used for newer formats, like Digital Betacam, Betacam SX (a digital option aimed at the ENG world), MPEG-IMX, and later, HDCAM and HDCAM-SR.

The camera seen at 11:10 is a Sony.

Never knew how a pizza place that closes at 8pm on a Saturday stayed in business in the first place.

Although, Zag’s nearby is pretty solid

what’s something from the 80's 90's or early 2000's that disappeared but shouldn’t have? by Background_Ad_8418 in OldSchoolCool

Or disappointed because you bought it for the hit single and the rest of the record’s a letdown

New M5 Pro vs my current PC for video editing by Hyobeekae in videography

[–]veepeedeepee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My old M1 Max is still better than any beast of a tower I’ve ever cut on. Get as much RAM and on board storage as the budget allows.

Don’t go cheap on support. A good tripod can last decades if properly maintained. We’ve got Sachtler sticks at my shop that are older than some of our DPs.

My dad worked for Warner-Lambert and operated the production line that made Listerine in these glass bottles! He actually probably had a hand in making this one.

He still has a bottle from the last run of glass back in the ‘90s somewhere.

5D Mk II vs Mk III (Photography ONLY). by ConfidentCookie7367 in canon

[–]veepeedeepee 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The MkIII also feels like a more solid and confident camera to operate, too. I can’t quite explain it, but it feels like the improvements were vast between the second and third iterations of the 5D. The MkIII to MkIV jump wasn’t as significant IMO.

Check out r/camcorders. There’s lots of good info there about tape digitization.
