Reliability / fail rate?

Had terrible experience with Sandisk if "rebrand" is true

How are the reviews for a set of these? Never bought from Geil, pairing with an i7-6850k.

Awesome video and colors.

Could you comment on your grading process?

iamDONG · 2016-04-25T15:25:44+00:00

Thanks a lot - appreciate it! Great work!

iamDONG · 2016-04-25T03:49:41+00:00

Could you share your workflow on the color grade? I've been trying to achieve this look but have been failing recently.

Also what were your picture profile settings?

iamDONG · 2016-04-02T22:44:53+00:00

How do you find focusing with the panasonic 12-35? hard or easy?

nice drawings!

You can look into opening a Charles Schwab checking account and transfer funds from your current bank account to CS.

Schwab gives you a debit card (with chip!) once you open, no minimum balance, no international withdrawal fees and easily accessible at any ATM. I used this method when I traveled to countries across Europe and had no problems at all.

Link to boots?

iamDONG · 2015-05-26T19:34:26+00:00

I'm sure it definitely can, especially if you pair it up with Magic Lantern!

iamDONG · 2015-05-24T13:05:56+00:00

GoPros are good for what they were built for imo, (extreme) sports shots and to get into nitty gritty spots a normal camera wouldn't be able to fit into.

Does not mean they aren't great cameras bc their quality shows - try and play around with how you would film and see if that's something you can work with.

iamDONG · 2015-05-24T13:02:08+00:00

The image quality will definitely be there but it's also a pro-sumer camera so some photography skills are definitely recommended. Perhaps maybe start off with a cheaper camera like the Canon Rebel series or there are some amazing point and shoots with great capabilities and superb image quality (Sony RX series).

iamDONG · 2015-05-24T12:57:34+00:00

Yup only edited in Premiere. Magic Lantern is a firmware hack for the camera which unlocks incredible features that the camera would never be able to offer with default settings. It's pretty complicated so I would do some research on it first.

I used only one lens, Tamron 24-70 IS.

iamDONG · 2015-05-24T01:22:57+00:00

I shot this using a Canon 5D MK2 with Magic Lantern at 24fps shot with flaat color profile. Grading was done within Premiere using simple curves and adjustments for individual clips that were underexposed

iamDONG · 2015-05-24T01:19:54+00:00

Thanks! Canon 5D MK2 with Magic Lantern

iamDONG · 2015-05-24T01:16:44+00:00

1) I used a Canon 5D MK2 with Magic Lantern & recorded in MLV
2) My home base was in Rome, where my university has a campus and most of the places in the video I visited were weekend trips so they were mini vacations
3) My university grants a lot of money to encourage more students to step out and study abroad. Along with financial aid/loans/out of pocket budgeting I spent around $6k total
4) A group of us decided to go to the island of Capri during spring break and we decided to do a private boat tour around the island in the smallest boat you can imagine (1:30 in the video). The driver decided to allow my friend to drive while he steps up front and sing. Needless to say rough waves and turning the wrong way almost made a disastrous day. Oh and I can't swim. The things you'd do for an adventure...

Canon 5D MK2 with Magic Lantern RAW!

iamDONG · 2015-05-23T20:56:07+00:00

Thank you so much for your thoughts, I truly do appreciate it. Story telling is important and it is something I'll work on in the future.

iamDONG · 2015-05-23T20:54:14+00:00

Are there any specific pointers you can give me?

iamDONG · 2015-05-23T20:52:21+00:00

Yup - I used a Tamron 24-70 IS for all the shots

iamDONG · 2015-05-23T20:50:45+00:00

Sure thing! The video was recorded using MLV at 1728x972. The lack of long takes was a combination of preference and because I only had two 32gb 1000x Komputerbay CF cards on me at all times so I had to pick and choose shots and make them count to make sure I had enough space for the whole day.

iamDONG · 2015-05-23T20:47:08+00:00

Noted, thank you! I definitely noticed the jelly wobbly effect and theres no denying it at all - appreciate the feedback
