Can anyone tell me the difference between the v1 or v2 of the Fujinon 19-90mm Cabrio lenes?

v1 has the Fujinon logo above 19-90mm and v2 has the Fujinon logo below 19-90mm

I too am looking for any comparisons. I am on the fence about purchasing an Amira package. It seems like the camera is still just getting into people's hands.

Thanks for the tips. I ended up ordering 3 1.2Kw fresnel HMIs. My original plan was to get 2 M18s but it was way out of the budget. I felt like I will have better luck achieving my desired effect with multiple units since I need to flood the room with the light beams from multiple sides of the building. Wish me luck.

Hey Everyone,

I am shooting a short this weekend and there is a scene in a restaurant where the location's venetian blinds are closed. I want there to be beams of light pouring in through the blinds. My plan is to fill the room with a light layer of haze motivated by the burning food in the restaurant to help show the beams of light. I am getting a couple 1200w HMIs which I will shine straight into the blinds but I have never used HMI lighting before and I am unsure whether I should order fresnel HMIs or PAR HMIs for this task. Which would be a better choice to give me even and crisp beams?

Best,

Alan

Hey everyone,

I am fairly new to the working world of the film industry but I have gotten a fairly good start so far as an AC.

There is often a lot of talk about joining Local 600 on set and I have figured out all of the necessary documentation that I need.

However, the part that I am stuck on is the letter from the producer. Is there any particular way that the information on it should written or how the wording should be presented?

I would love to see an example of templates people have used.

Best,

Alan
