Cinema Verite' 08

This sounds very interesting in theory, so how does one go about this in practice? It is clear that an A-Minima is an ideal but VERY EXPENSIVE solution. If one can believe all the hype regarding the RED cameras, the may make a 'break even' solution. The A-Cam is an afordable solution that may be easilly modified, but how does one prove the system at a 'grass roots' level?

So far as the video image is concerned; a new approach is necessary to make an ACL video feed of the quality desired. The use of a 'sidefinder' has been proposed by lesbosher, this would solve the problem of flicker in the ACL and if one uses a 17-68 ANGENEUX, then the system will be capable of HIGH DEFINITION / SUPER16 imagery.


Look at the new exploratory arrangement... with the EXPENSE of 'reworking' the finder to provide accurate coupling etc, the only choice is the Canon HV20. As the ZR40 arrangement evolves into a PRECISION CANON HV20 instalation; I will add a TECH FORUM so other possible Camcorder / camera combinations may also be discussed..
