How do you find the Briese light with grid compares to a larger or medium chimera with grid?

I have individual boxes made up for each of my tungsten lights (650/300/150). Each box is made out of plasticore and showcard and has ND 9/6/3, 216, 250, Opal, F/H/Q CTO, and F/H/Q CTB. Each kit lives with it's own light like some other people's system and everything fits into a milkcrate for transport.

I was working on a cooking show where we shot various food beauties. The food was placed on a dining room table (as we were on location) and the DP used a 6x6 frame in a book light configuration above the table with a silk backed with a black. Into the frame were bounced 2x 1K's. A little bit of negative fill and front fill were used depending on the shot.

Good thought. I actually tried that and I had color correction turned to "ON" in the low, mid and hi settings. I had another look and it looks like there might be a very small minute increase but for +63 steps I would expect there to be more of a difference?

I was playing around with the Color Correction menu settings on the HDX900 while prepping a job and tried boosting the Saturation levels but didn't see any effect to my image. I had the camera hooked up to a Panasonic 8" monitor. Color correction was turned to "On" in the menu. Is there something I'm missing?

I've seen gaffer's build custom frames out of wood that fit into the existing window frame. They then use small 3M circular velcro to tack the gel to the frame and can stack subsequent densities of ND as the day changes on to the same frame.

Is it a joy connector on a 2500 ballast?

I thought they didn't make a parallel kit for the EU3000's only the EU2000's? Has anyone run a 2500 on a EU3000? I own the genny but have never tried.

I have one of these: http://www.sourceshop.com/product.asp?pid=92 They're a little more designed for grip/sparking though an AC pouch will work.

Really insightful and interesting information and accounts of your experience. I hope you can do something very similar with your next production! Best of luck!

There's a company called Kenko that seems to have taken over the design of the old Minolta IIIF color meter. They look almost identical. Gossen also makes one. They're both pricey.

Here are the gel boxes that I built (mentioned above) for each on of my lamps. They're built out of plasticore and cut to the respective lamp size.

I use re-inforced art portfolio's. They're strong and flat themselves.
