Hi, if you press the button for three or more seconds and then release the button, the camera runs until you hold the button...

Re: Bolex EBM vs EL : any input on the better cam?

I have an EBM converted to super 16 camera. EBM and EL are great cameras, they are moderately loud and both capable of crystal sync with external crystal module and can be shoot with live sound if you´re on outdoors and the mic is far away from the camera. Between EL or EBM, I choose EL because i...

Re: TRI-X VS PLUS-X - your view?

It is hard to judge it on youtube or vimeo, but if you see the two stocks projected you will see their "own personality" PlusX is fine grained and less contrasty (more like a negative stock) and TriX is grainy and more contrastly. In sunny days (outdoor) I prefer PlusX, It give me more ran...

Re: canon scoopic batteries

Hi i know scoopic users that they use 8 AA alkaline batteries.
I have a Scoopic M and I recelled the battery with 10 AA rechargeable Ni-Mh. The first scoopics have a different battery (I had one) and they can be recelled with 10 AAA ni-Mh rechargeable batteries.

Re: my k25 Super16mm videoclip on Vimeo

Hi looks great but It looks like video to me, more electronic than film look.
I know that it´s hard to tell this through Vimeo, but do you use some filter in post like sharpen or grain reduction?

Re: How do you make a blurry image on Photoshop become clear?

You can sharp the image with the tool: filters>sharpen<unsharp mask
you can add more "pop" to your image with "levels" tools (try with "auto levels" )
