Got a call from an out of town company for a three day shoot of green-screen interviews... then an hour later they called and changed it to a half day shoot with kit they provided.
So I set up for a morning of interviews, shot them and then started to pack down.
"No no" they said. "Leave it we have two days of shooting left."
Just not with me.

I've recently had mates who've suffered having their gear being lifted right out of their camera cars.

In this last ten days one has had a wide angle lens smash-and-grabbed from his car, another was distracted while a second helped themselves to his new PMW-500. And I've also heard of a SKY crew who had a similar fate, only to have the camera returned shortly after it was taken.

Keep your eyes on a swivel out there! ]]> General Discussion krazycamera http://www.b-roll.net/forum/showthread.php?t=28805 http://www.b-roll.net/forum/showthread.php?t=28804&goto=newpost Wed, 22 May 2013 20:58:36 GMT Looking for general information about the stations and the pay scale.

On the HDX the synchro scan will only allow me to go down to 30. I see no way to get an even slower shutter. Normally to get the effect I need to go to around 15 or less. Do you have any secrets regarding getting this effect on the HDX900? ]]> EFP / Freelance / Production Ken http://www.b-roll.net/forum/showthread.php?t=28802 http://www.b-roll.net/forum/showthread.php?t=28801&goto=newpost Tue, 21 May 2013 05:25:14 GMT I was right behind that huge tornado and chased it into the Moore neighborhoods until debris stopped us.

However, being the first media on scene and watching scared parents sprinting into the rubble looking for their kids in the two schools hit really was tough today. The video and still photos don't do it justice. Today was a rough day for everyone who experienced this first hand and everyone could use all of your prayers. ]]> General Discussion svp http://www.b-roll.net/forum/showthread.php?t=28801 http://www.b-roll.net/forum/showthread.php?t=28800&goto=newpost Mon, 20 May 2013 14:54:46 GMT Was looking to update an old peter Lisand adjust-a-grip that I had on my D600 for use on a HDX900.
