I'm considering buying a Sennheiser me66 shotgun mic. I've found tons and tons of technical info on it on the web but I can't find out exactly how far away you...
... The ME66 is considered a short electret condenser shotgun. Works good in a room up to a small amount of echo. Nice sound. Too wide for outside duty unless...

The best way to use to internal light meter . . . Don't use it. Get an incident light meter (many can be found used for under 50 bucks) and use it always....
Hi! I would like to upgrade my K-3 ! Would you consider giving me that e-mail address also. I have my K-3 for over a year and it's brand new, and I think it's...

sure man, no problem. I'll be out and about today, it might be tomorrow when I'll have time to dig up the contact info. I did a little searching last night...
$80 sounds great. thanks in advance for getting the information for us. ... tomorrow when I'll have time to dig up the contact info. I did a little searching...
Had the same problem with jamming - thought the camera was garbage. I have managed to fix it, without the 80 dollar tuneup, myself, and haven't had a problem...
... No no no! You need that. Don't forget to put it back if you take it out for any reason. ... More usually called the 'pressure plate'. ... This is true....
... The internal lightmeter can work just as well. And it can prevent the problem of 1) opening up the lens to frame the shot 2) forgeting to close it down to...
... The T thing is horrible. It's not secure in the camera, pops off too easily, rattles around inside when filming. Look underneath it, there are marks from...

I shot a test roll last weekend and got it professionally telecined and man, it look's so great! I shot outdoors kodak 250D stock. It was snowing lightly and...

the operative word is "professionally telecine" ... decent optics + film + transfer = magical pix ... it helps to have the exposure right, too. jeff....
I bought a k-3 recently I ran some leader through it for the first time to test it out and it all gets stuck after it passes by the pressure plate. Does...
Ok guys, sorry for the delay in getting this info to those as promised. I got my K-3 upgraded from this guy, turned out GREAT. Travis Petty Burning Ice...
... The T is not supposed to pop off. :-) You had a bad T. ... That is true. The edges of the spools get warped in, then they don't properly take up film. ...
... Are you having a *loading* problem? The autoload will get the film past the pressure plate, but you do have to work it around the last loop former and thru...
Anyone heard from this guy recently? http://members.fortunecity.com/sazeech/eyecup.htm he sells new eyecups to replace rotten old ones. I've tried to get ahold...

Unfortunately, I can't afford to do the modification for $80 any more. The price has gone up to $129, but the turnaround time is still fast, and the work is...
The information I received was from www.visualedtech.com I spoke to a John J. Caprice at Toll Free 888-410-1380 and he sent me a brochure on the Elmo...
Before you buy that TRV, check out the workprinter first. Not only has it been getting a lot of prase from the S8/16MM scene, but it's cheaper too. ...
Thanks Seekaee, I have seen the workprinter page and read all the reviews on that site. The only problem is that you have to shoot at a mirror and then to an...
It seems to me, that for the cost/quality ratio of these home transfer devices, it would much better suit you to just use that money for some GREAT transfer...
Travis, you have a good point there too. I did not rule that option out. And after a side by side price look, I could use a telecine studio in Burbank, Calif...
good transfer is key, but consider that final cut pro 3 has built-in color correction to help you now, so if you can get your initial image nice and sharp,...
