I need a solid photography backpack to hold a 60d, 24-105, 70-200 f4 a few accessories and a 055/501 tripod setup. If i could also hold a slider on it that would be great. Will be taking this on long treks and skiing with it, so durable, weather resistant would be awesome. Thanks!

So as much as I think final cut pro x is victimized much more than it deserves, this is an interesting alternative to final cut or avid. I know avid is having some special pricing at $300 or something, but only premiere and final cut are 64 bit out of the three. There is one catch though, you...

So, at the moment I have three lenses, a Tamron 17-50, Pentax SMC 50 1.4, and canon 70-200 f4. I am considering selling my 17-50 and getting 2 more primes. I would do this to my 70-200 also, but that would be very expensive. I feel that a 14mm prime would be better than the zoom for follows...

Anybody know how these preform? I know that the 85mm ant 14mm have gotten some good reviews, but anyone actually have these? Here's a list of the primes: 8mm f/3.5 Fisheye: Slightly different category than the rest, only one with intentional distortion. APS-C only. $290, no comparable Canon...

M&A! Here is a project that I have put my blood, sweat and tears into. My summer timelapse reel. Really stoked on how this turned out, and I hope you all are too. Enjoy. Over the course of the summer of 2011, I traveled thousands of miles by car, plane, bike, and foot to create the most...

Alright, figured that enough people have posted threads about vintage glass that we should just put our knowledge into one go to place. Vintage lenses are great deals for spectacular glass if you are unaware I just bought the pentax-m S-M-C takumar 50mm 1.4 I've read that this is better than...

Curious to see how much peoples cams cost: 60d-$800 Tamron 17-50 2.8 non vc-$315 Canon 70-200 4L- $485 Pentax smc 50 1.4-$80 Glidecam 2000 pro-$230 Manfrotto 128rc-$60 Bogen 3020 legs-$70 Canon bag-$25 Filters, mic, and other accessories: $300 Total-$2365 Lots of hidden costs in a...

I love doing DIY stuff and I was bored today, so I decided to take apart my tripod. both the legs and the head were broken down the most physically possible, and i found a bunch of junk inside of the legs and stuff. no im going to do a thorough cleaning, and since my legs are 20-25 years old...

or at least pieces you think are alright. I'll start, I actually kinda like the 88 back

I already have a sick rail system I made and I just was wondering whether you guys have found follow focus to be useful. not just for skiing but for other things. I can get the JAG D/Focus V3 with a gear for about $120 in mint condition. Worth it? or will it not make a difference?

Anyone check this out? looks like it could be pretty useful for some of you professionals, some pretty cool features. $200 a year. http://vimeo.com/pro

Hey guys, so I broke my wrist a week ago and im super bored and depressed. Injuries suck for sure. anyways, I've got a T3i and some new glass and thought I should do some sort of project to help the time pass. I'm working on a timelapse video for the end of the summer, but I'm gonna be at home...

I know this has been discussed before, but I think that this season we should have M&A here on NS team up and make a really sick movie. I was thinking of making my own movie next year, but i think instead we could makes something much better with each person making the best 3 minute segment they...

This is one of my favorite short videos of all time, and I figured I would share it with you all. Its not mine, so credit doesn't go to me, but to the artist Matthew Brown. This was shot entirely on a naked HV40 (no tripod, 35mm adapter or anything else). You can produce almost exactly similar...

I've just bought a T3i and was wondering what you guys think about what SD card to get. I will be shooting a lot of HD video, and I know that for that you really need Class 6 or higher. Ive heard that beyond the class needed wont really help in video, it will only really help in burst shooting...

Sick deal direct from canon, gives you a T2i body refurbished for $560. Their refurbished problems are like new. http://shop.usa.canon.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_10051_10051_267071_-1 check it out.

Had an assignment for film class to make a short documentary about an event that occured recently in us or our family's lives. Nothing great by any means, but just thought I would share it and get some constructive criticism. If i had more time on this assignment, I would have edited it better...

I'm gonna be getting a T3i probably some time in early june and have the opportunity to get it for $800 with the kit lens. Obviously its not a great piece of glass, but will it get the job done well enough. I will be using the camera for all video, and probably get some more lenses in the next...

Right now I've got a canon M30 with a handful of accessories that I am considering selling and picking up an HV30. I'd probably end up earning money after all's over, but I want to make sure I'm making the right choice. I shoot skiing, short films (for film class) and timelapses/nature films...

they were having some customs problems with the first batch of these, but now they're finally available. I may very well pick one of these up... $129 for the 23 inch, $179 for the 46 inch http://opteka.com/gld200.aspx http://opteka.com/gld400.aspx
