    Hi Michael, I like the TV gag approach but I was curious what purpose does the beaver board serve? Are you literally just putting the light on it? If you could let me know that would be great. Thanks

    Thanks Jimmy, I figured this out like 5 minutes after i posted this, should have looked around a little bit more. But thats exactly what I am using.

    Hi, I am doing a time-lapse within a very small area and do not really have enough room fro a tripod. I want to mount my 7D to a 3" railing. Does anyone have any suggestions for simple/cheap rigs that I could make or buy? Thanks for your help.

    Ok thanks Dom, I found out that my Bolex was made in 1959. The serial number is 167612. I believe it is an H16 REX1. This website says that it has a 145 degree shutter: http://www.city-net.com/~fodder/bolex/history/. This would mean about a 1/60 exposure time (exposure time=(fps x 360) / (Shutter Angle°). If this is right I was not compensating for that. But shouldn't that mean that my footage should have been under exposed if I was exposing for a 180 degree shutter? I need to do some tests with other lenses it sounds like. Thanks for your help this enlightened me to some things about Bolex's that I didn't know.

    Hi Bernie, Thanks for your response, I set up my Meter for 24 f/s and the shutter angle is set at a 180 degree shutter. So you are saying that the Bolex needs to be corrected to shoot at a different shutter angle. Are you saying I should change the angle on my meter to correlate to 1/75 or 1/80 exposure time? Like maybe a 120 degree shutter? Tell me if I am getting this right. Thanks Tyler

    HI, I recently shot some footage with the 5.9mm f/1.8 Angenieux lens on a regular 16mm Bolex. It seemed like everything I shot with it was overexposed. I was curious if anyone knew if I need to adjust the f-stop because this type of lens lets too much light in for regular 16mm bolex? I am assuming it is just not made for this camera so I need to stop down a little bit to fix the exposure. If anyone has any info on this it would be appreciated. Thanks
