Merlin - Expectations

Recommended Posts

Hi Sam,

 

I've been looking at your latest video, and things look pretty good to me.

 

I own the Merlin since a few weeks, and have a Sony HDR-SR10E. Practising a lot, seeing slowly progress.

 

My question to you is not so much about working with the Merlin, but about the video on the Vimeo site. The image quality is awsome ! What compression and bitrate did you use ? And what size was the file ?

 

Would appreciate the info, thanks !

5d is a sharp camera IMO!

 

5d workflow..

 

clip to prores at 25 FPS using mpegclipstream

 

edit in final cut

 

output as 720-25p using H264

 

open 720-25p in Quicktime pro 'save for web desktop 1.5 mbs'

 

creates as folder wth m4v file

 

upload m4v file to vimeo typically 10-20mb for 2-3 minutes

do you have the arm - who do you like it - does it bob ?

Thanks for the info !!!!

 

No arm here, thus no bob..... :P

 

My rig is very light, just one finish weight on the front, and a middle and finish down, so I don't realy need an arm. And for now I'm happy not to bring in another item which would trigger more difficulties in mastering the Merlin....

 

best regards
