Petros Goritsas Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Hello to all cinematographers out there, I am writting you cause i need your help regarding the anamorphic ratio on 5D mark2. I am in pre-production of a short movie and i have talked to the director about using and exploiting the widescreen ration on the 5D. So far i have been searching the web about tutorials , on how to frame your subjects and plan your shots having in mind that in post-production we are going to crop the frame so it fits the anamorphic ratio. Truth is to be told, i am going for the first time to use this method of shooting and planning my camera setups. I am a newbie on this one , so please be kind , i am open to all suggestions and critic. My question is how can crop correctly the live view on the 5D mark II so it fits the 2:35 anamorhic ratio?So in post production i know exactly where and how to crop the frame ,as i have framed everything according to the live view in the beginning. I will be using the following lenses Canon EF Zooms – 17-40mm / 28-135mm / 75-300mm. Looking forward for a reply, Peace, Petros. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean Dodge Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Short answer: use tape or grease pencil on external monitor screen after shooting tests of charts and real world conditions in conjunction with the editor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
