Hi, I'm going to shoot the World Cup final match in German next month with my XL 2 and am wondering about what's the best setting to be use(e.g:Frame rate, shutter speed, preset) that often used by the operator of television's broadcast camera. I'm not going to shoot it alone, I have two other assistant which the one will be shooting behind the team A's goalpost(wide shot & player close up) and the other one behind the team B's goalpost(also wideshot & player close up). I'm between the team A and B to get wideshot, so the editing will be much easier to find the best angle. Any suggest will be appreciated, thanks!

I'd prefer super-16 more than HD in terms of latitude and better color correction in post production which the HD can craps out quickly when you do that. I don't own super-16 but am sure will look for it someday...(coz' am still satisfied with HD).

He...he...he... :) Let's have a fun time for a while! Have you ever think about the number that is taken to be used MOSTLY by nowaday's technology? Lets have a guest...... Yes you're right, it's number 3! These are some of the example: >3 CCD Camcorder >3 LCD GrandWEGA sony plasma TV >3 or tri-band handphone >3 G handphone >3 Megapixel digital camera(it's poor now) >3 or even 30 GB memory storage >Playstation 3 game console(coming soon) >Xbox 360 >MPEG 3 player And that's all I can think of... Can somebody else think of the other 3 that u know? Let's have a fun B)

Why don't you use the external light meter rather than in-camera light meter(I believe it's more accurate!)

Hey! Do you think with miniDV camcorder(high-end model off course) can't make a pleasing final result? Mine is Canon XL-2, it was bought by my father one year ago, and it's not so bad to start off with this camcorder. My father then said:"You'll never regret this, because it's a broadcast-camcorder like quality, it has a lot of feature you could ask for, and it's perfect for the first time filmmaker like you." See? I love this camcorder! It has so many manual control like: shutter speed, iris, gain, white balance, audio channel, audio gain, etc...(except 24fps <_< ) I'd recommend you to buy this camcorder IMHO :) And if you have a big budget why don't get the better one! I'd like to have one if someday I can afford it :rolleyes:

What do you mean? 24fps with 2 sec exposure? I know that in 24fps mode, every second captures 24 frames. How is it possible to shoot 2 second of exposure with 24fps?

Hello, I'm newbie in here and I'm very impressed with The Matrix movies I saw. Here's my question: How they could make such a smooth slow-motion fighting scene with great steadiness? Were they using a high-speed Varicam or was it created by the computer animation? and also can Varicam record in 1000fps? Sorry for the rookie question, and correct me if I'm wrong :)
