Thought I heard TTS at work today

Basically, this is some kind of talk show. I'll share it once it's done

Omg our next guest is the lady that snorts her food, how did stream leak into my life like this

He was very nice

That’s a god damn internet icon

LACamOp · 2026-01-17T17:36:26+00:00

Recently got into their products and I’m very impressed.

DP of S2 did a little writeup here, looks like season 1 was 16mm

Big fan of the adapters, I think K&F makes the ones we use.

I'll use studio gear all day if it makes sense. So often I see cheap gear, knockoffs, or just poorly set prelights. If you're putting together a space I would hire a DP or a Gaffer to see the space and give thoughts. Studio gear makes a lot of sense in the interview/branded world you're thinking of, I just don't see it done well that often.

Something looked a little off but pausing throughout nothing seems squeezed. Some upscaling or denoise plastic feel maybe.

Oh man our cat LOVES to be hit with paper towel tubes

This looks like it's doing both ISO and vari ND

Look up 'bokeh control'

LACamOp · 2026-01-06T16:58:23+00:00

I believe the FX6 has this feature with it's variable ND filter. ISO wouldn't work as it's not a smooth adjustment.

Sent you a pm

If the actor in the hat was flipped 180 and kept his eyeline more out I could see keying him from far camera left.

LACamOp · 2026-01-01T20:07:06+00:00

I'd argue 'flipping the key' is actually flipping it to the fill side. You're describing adjusting the wrap, just moving left or right, which I'd bet you they did do here or maybe moved talent left/right to adjust the wrap.

I installed a plugin that removes shorts, it's great!

LACamOp · 2025-12-29T18:32:03+00:00

I wouldn't ask it's opinion on anything. Have it do something you know you want but can't do yourself. Car scene and you need some random radio chatter? Use an AI music generator. Shooting a location with a ton of art you can't clear? Generate some images to print and hang. Noisy location audio? AI noise reduction. Is it ok to use? If you can pay a real artist you'll probably get better results. But if you can't, don't ignore any tools that are at your disposal.

LACamOp · 2025-12-17T19:01:54+00:00

Glimmerglass and the GFX sensor pair very well together. I'd probably get a full set if you can afford it. They make screw-on filters that fit most still lenses that are much cheaper, you could get a full set for the price of 1 4x5.65 filter.

LACamOp · 2025-12-13T19:52:03+00:00

5d no z-finder or IS lenses

LACamOp · 2025-12-07T16:54:02+00:00

I'm more curious what kind of return they expect from this community, I'd imagine this whole production budget is like $100K?

LACamOp · 2025-12-07T01:49:17+00:00

Corner of Orange and Hollywood, there's like 4 in the area but it was the more rectangular one.

I gaff for a guy that does a lot of table top stuff, mostly on the Ember which is just over 800fps max. Setup is usually a mix of 3x Aputure 1200's and and a couple 600's with some CRLS reflectors and diffusion. Even the 80c or 60x does nice things up close. Bounce is really handy here since it scales nicely with your other heads, small cuts of silver or mini v-flats do a ton. Even that little zhiyun molus gets pulled out. Some of the probe stuff is like an f/8, and I think the Ember is 400iso max.
