  1. hello I have a lovely zoom, but it just opens to 2.8, would be great to have a lens that had a shallower depth of field. What are the best options as I have a chance to chance to get an adapter for my super 16mm Eclair NPR camera, was thinking that an arriflex mount would be best, but maybe something to use the Bolex options? Looking to get lovely close ups. Thanks
  2. Hello I have what seems like a phase issue with my camera, the footage has a ghosting on it. Can anybody fix it or know anybody who can do the job? Best wishes David
  3. Hello I wondered what people recommend as a 35mm lens, I was thinking of SLR Magic with their 35mm t1.3, are there any other recommendations? I think this is a good focal length for me. Ideally I'd be able to get macro too, so was considering the Sigma 35mm 1.4 art. Any recommendations would be great. Lighter the better, I think the camera can take lenses unto a 1kg, but I don't want to stress it too much?
  4. Hello does anybody know any cheaper alternatives than the £239.00/ $250 grids for the super large Elinchrom Softbox? I saw one for £60 but it was 170cm.. Would this fit are there other options? Many thanks David
  5. Does anybody have any recommendations for this camera. It's a bit of a beast.. looking at used. Many thanks
  6. I've heard that they have been used on ships and hard to reach places in little cave. They seem light on battery, but how are they used on the go?
  7. Hi Brian, definitely going to go used. I'm using the NPR, which seems a bit bigger. My tripod is the Manfrotto 058b which looks stable enough, but I doubt the head is.
  8. Hello any advice on a tripod head for my camera. I have a Manfrotto 229. But I fear this might not be strong enough. Any advice would be great. Keeping my budget low, but safe as I've seen some heads over a grand! I want to use it handheld mostly but Do want some thing stead for telephoto footage and some tripod movements.
  9. Great thanks guys I know what I need to save up for now. I'm going to keep with the zoom for the moment and save up a little. Many thanks!
  10. Hello I am looking for a really fast prime or 2 that covers super 16 for the Eclair. It's quite confusing with so many different lenses available. The camera has an adaptor for Arri Bayonet and comes with the 15-150 2.8 that covers s16. I know that the Zeiss cine lenses are out of my league, but was wondering if there was something that would give me a true shallow depth of field. I saw Schneider do a 25mm 0.9. Would this work? What are the affordable options from wide to normal I don't really want to go slower than T 1.5 Many thanks!
  11. Hello I have 2 small cases and a few hard cases which are fine for taxis. But I'd love to move a few more by hand. I have a dedolight hmi 400. 3 small dedos kits. A standard manfrotto stand for the 400 and a large softbox. Would be nice to carry another flash for photos too. Any ideas? The think tank production looks good. But is very expensive.
  12. Yeah it's a S type, Bowens fit. So the soft box fit into that. But I need to find a way to get the adaptor to keep secure onto the HMI. I was thinking maybe tape might be the best solution. But don't want a fire..
  13. this is the speeding https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/322548624279
  14. Yes it doesn't mount to it as it's third party. I need to find something to keep it attached to the HMI. Not sure what though
  15. I have a speedring for my Dedolight HMI. But it needs tape to keep it attached as it's third party. Does anyone know what tape or alternative that would work?
  16. Hi Ed. I've got a speedring. Do you know what sort of tape I could use to keep the speedring attached?
  17. Thanks Dom, so there is no worries about the negative being tinted?
  18. Hello I have what seems like a yellow filter on my viewfinder, is this something I can disengage? Best wishes David
  19. Hello I have what seems like a yellow filter on my viewfinder, is this something I can disengage? Best wishes David
  20. Thanks Ed, great idea with the speeding! Many thanks!
  21. Hello does anybody have any solutions to making these lights softer and controlling them. Are there soft boxes I can attach? I am pretty new to HMIs Many thanks
  22. hello does anybody have any recommendations for affordable gels for the Dedolights DLH4 series of lights? Best wishes
  23. Hello I was wondering if anybody had any advice on this combination. Should I leave the filter at sunlight, I had a blue negative in the past, but I think that was from tungsten film.. Also any advice on external meter usage, would I have to make changes to it, keep it at 50 or rate it at a different iso? Thanks for looking
  24. I can't recommend these guys enough in the UK they\re very well priced and they do brilliant 2k transfers too. http://gaugefilm.co.uk/
