Essential The Official Photography Thread

[2 Up 2 Down]

Take a class in cinematography and you can use any camera that takes video.

I will was the opportunity rises, but for now I want to actually go out and do some hands-on work.
I think learning how to shoot stills would be beneficial, also.

Whats a good camera with good video capabilities?

If you're looking for something small and easy to carry around, cop an olympus stylus infinity or something along those lines. I found mine for like 3 bucks, it's got a sharp lens and works well... unless you drop it in water

pretty sure I took all of those after I dropped the cam in water... It just works when it wants to and doesn't rewind anymore...

 

[mortuus est]

@old soul how long did you have that cam for

 

[old soul]

I've had it for about 5 or 6 months I think

so i'm rolling with the 70-200mm f/4 L, but i'm getting the IS version used and I won't always need a tripod to use it and I'd be getting it for about $900...the F2.8 (first)version is too expensive and the pics don't even come out as sharp as the F4 version...guess for recording shyt ISO gonna have to pushed up more , but at least it remains at f4 when at 200mm

 

[JasonSJackson]

....and the pics don't even come out as sharp as the F4 version...

and where'd u get this info from?

 

[Mike Ock]

and where'd u get this info from?

various sites and comparisons online...but I'm still deciding because I know i need something that works under low light the I can zoom in and out with...but the $ is kinda holding me back...they're discounted till december 1st though...i think the 20-700 f/2.8L with IS is like 2g's..
