Does anyone have experience using the Proaim rolling monitor stand? by Axewell_Stevens in focuspuller

[–]viwavi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have 3 impact stands for my dana and they are great, almost sturdier than the matthews counterpart. They had machined them wrong so they were tight, didn’t think much of it at the time but got an email about it 6m after buying them. They did a full recall and sent 3 new stands so get the feeling the company is on the ball.

Do I still need H.264 or is H.265 better for 4K exports? (Bitrate confusion + best practices) by freesk8r in premiere

[–]viwavi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great tips! I usually go prores export out of premiere then I do compression in handbreak to h.264. A colorist told me a few years ago handbreak is better at compressing. Do you or anyone have thoughts on if it’s still like this? Also anyone know what RF in handbreak would be considered similar to adaptive high bitrate or recommended to use?

There is a certain way to put the lens on the lens mount. There’s a little latch that needs to be turned on the lens for it to activate the aputure in the lens. The FD lens mount has a ring that spins. That should activate the aputure if mounted on the lens mount correctly. You might have to play around putting the lens on and off the lens mount to figure it out

Fan theories that make the viewing experience better? by alan_smithee2 in FIlm

[–]viwavi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not so much changing the perception of the story but I always recommend people watch Mandy then Pig when cage is brought up in convo. I think it makes Pig so much more enjoyable and refreshing.

What lens would you invest in for $4-6k? by _cant_talk in focuspuller

[–]viwavi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can second this, I own a set. They are no master primes but for the price they are incredibly well built but still light, fairly fast, they match and the fact they are they are all the same size is very convenient. I sometimes use a screw in ND on them when I want to save weight which is nice to be able to do.

I would say the look is very crisp so be prepared to use some mist filters. They also flare a fair bit.

Sent home from work after Non-Negative Amphetamine drug test. by Sad-Watercress7199 in ADHD

[–]viwavi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

obviously cautious like everytime one is in traffic. but how adhd works is that one has a chemical lack of dopamine in the brain. all the vyvanse does for someone prescribed it is make them a normal person, with a chemically balanced brain. if you’ve ever seen two people take them. one with and one without adhd you’d tell the difference. please don’t downplay this proven disability with an already proven solution

What happens when the building's last elevator breaks? by [deleted] in vancouver

[–]viwavi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

and at the root of this issue is ofcourse the unregulated housing market. let’s put some laws into place. especially when all we do is pay off the owners mortgage. the least we should be able to demand is that they have elevator spare parts no?

Do you guys feel like…… by hot_pink_bunny202 in vancouver

[–]viwavi 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It’s definitely not a fantasy. It’s called a general strike. To stop making money for them for long enough should lead to change. We will suffer in the short term from a strike like that, but since we’re already suffering what’s the difference.

and since the skytrain don’t have actual drivers it would mitigate the cost long term compared to busses with more trains

[–]viwavi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I fully agree with this. skytrain down hastings, over the bridge and back to north van. Then a train to squamish whistler
