Premium Members William Demeritt Posted April 3, 2014 Premium Members Report Share Posted April 3, 2014 I wasn't contacted. I feel really sad now. However, I really want to go on record (again?) by saying this: it's a forum of professionals, but it's also Steadicam nerds. Seriously, we're all nerds for this goofy little device and all the doodads that make the dynamite go boom. Nerds have opinions. They have good opinions and bad opinions. They have knee jerk opinions, and well thought out opinions. We react to vaporware, and we praise the legit stuff. That sort of dynamic is a GREAT thing ESPECIALLY on a web forum, because it means I can make purchasing decisions with a grain of salt, or I can heed great advice or disregard as appropriate. When I'm considering new gear, I don't round up how many people say "OH, YES, THIS LOOKS AWESOME!" I look for the people who have critical analysis of the gear and determine if that analysis has value. Sometimes, they do, and sometimes they don't! But I'd rather sift thru the information and decide for myself. So please, let's not sanitize this forum of all it's critical value simply because we're doing what we do: talk nerd. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Members Brian Freesh Posted April 4, 2014 Premium Members Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 Will, sometimes you're such a good reactionary you're proactive about it! So far as I can tell this discussion is sufficiently geeky without hindrance from any party involved. I mean, you and I are now the most off topic... OT: Yay for focus, and autos.

Premium Members Tilman Holzhauer Posted April 13, 2014 Premium Members Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 I think, as others have already pointed out, in the marked segment of the low budget "one man shows", the future developement of the Dual Pixel CMOS AF (in Canon 70D, C100, C300 etc.) or similar technologies is much more interesting. In combination with the already existing AF Lock feature and facial regognition, maybe variable speed options for focus changes in the future, in can be a tool for those very small projects, documentaries etc. where the alternative would be a limitation to fixed focus shots only.
