Hey Bill, thanks for your reply. I shot on the Canon T2i actually, I shot at 720p because I needed the 60 frames for good slow motion. It's a really neat little tool; however the limitations became very apparent during this shoot, haha! Cheers, John Tanner

The film can be found . I just got done with post and released it last night, and it would be awesome if I could get some critiques! Thanks!

Yeah, I thought that might be it as well... Even so, if I shoot RAW and convert could I theoretically have a lot more to work with? Thanks for your timely reply. -John Tanner

Hello, I am an aspiring digital video film-maker, and I work primarily with the Canon EOS 550D because I have budget restraints still being a high school student. However, that is beside the point, I am curious as to why the color correction (the actual effect, including "curves" and "contrast/brightness" and the built in color corrector) is bringing so much noise into my shots that was not there previously. I have a few guesses but I want an outside opinion... I would imagine it's either... 1.) The fact that I am working in digital format and the pixels are clumping together because of the color correction. 2.) I am not compressing something right. 3.) Final Cut Express is just not adequate for professional color correction (my best guess.) or... 4.) I am not applying the color correction correctly at all. And it is kind of driving me crazy, I keep my files in the native format (H.264) and I did this so it wouldn't have to compress the file at all; however this could be a huge problem (I have no idea). Any feedback would be appreciated, thanks. -John Tanner
