Good point - this is my first time doing stop motion with the camera, so I hadn't thought of that. Will remember to do that next time. Thanks Herb!

Thank you very much, Glenn. Mine is a RX5, my apologies for forgetting to mention that.

I shot a stop-motion portion for a short last week, and the footage came back overexposed. I know the aperture was set appropriately, camera was fine for everything else I shot. Not using an animation motor. I'll make sure the knob is set to "I" and not "T" this time. although the exposure - though blown out- was consistent with the last batch of film, so I don't think that was the problem. Thus my question - I read something that said the single frame exposure takes everything at 1/30 sec shutter speed. Is this true - it doesn't move the shutter according to the frame rate you set? I know that it can be a little inconsistent working off the spring and not a motor... Thanks anyone who took the time to check out my question

I remember that Hitchcock used 3-D on "Dial M for Murder" He was forced to and not happy about it, but nevertheless, I have heard he did not go for "gimmick" shots and actually used the third dimension in ways that were motivated by the plot (he was the master of using new technology to its fullest, after all). I haven't actually seen the film in this fashion, so I can only speak about what I've heard 3-D is just another tool, and tools can be used for art or exploitation (or the merging of the two :rolleyes:) Problem with 3-D is that it was created and employed for the purpose of cheap thrills, and has yet to move out of that realm. It has potential put in the right hands, I feel. We just need some innovative mind to break through with a unique vision that bumps 3-D into the realm of art.
