<p>That's what I thought. Thanks Craig :)</p>

<p>Hi. Just a very simple question: I've got a Sekonic L-758Cine meter which I bought in Canada. Just wondering if the readings of light can differ whether I'm based in America or Europe (i.e. 50Hz vs 60Hz) ? I'm thinking it doesn't matter! I just need to set my meter to either 25fps or 30fps (in video mode), depending on where I'm at... but please do correct me if I am wrong, and if so, what should I look at in my meter ?<br> Thanks very much. <br> Patrick</p>

<p>Alright. Thank you all for your responses. I'm actually leaving in about 2 weeks from now, and dont have any camera at all (besides my phone!). I've looked up the Panasonic LUMIX DMC-ZS40, but already seems to be discontinued. No one mentioned the X30... Feeling like it might not be such a good deal then.<br> Ill look at the canon's powershot series... giving myself one more week of research.. </p> <p>Thanks :)</p>

<p>Hi guys,</p> <p>So I'm looking to purchase a new camera that'll allow for fairly good pictures with all-around zoom capabilities for traveling... <br> My budget is at MOST around 650$. Another criteria is that I absolutely want the viewfinder as well as the LCD screen.</p> <p>Now I came across the Fuji X30 which seems not bad, but would like to get feedback first. Any comments on this one ? Or perhaps another suggestion ? I did find the Sony Alpha 6000 to be quite interesting, however, it is over budget :(</p> <p>I'll be leaving on a trip to Ireland next week so hopefully I can buy before hand. Much much thanks in advance :)</p> <p>Patrick</p>

<p>Nice ! I'll test it out !! Thanks Gareth :)</p>

<p>Ok thanks. I'll check with my sound guy about this. I just know my 5D, not the mixer itself ;) </p> <p>It plugs into the "mic-in" minijack... and as I said, I cant seem to adjust the mic levels from within the 5D. It's either "on" or "off" if I can put it that way... My sound guy tried to adjust the levels from tge mixer and it just didn't change anything...</p>

<p>Hi. Im trying to figure out how I would use a field mixer with a Canon 5DM3, without the need for Magic Lantern. is this possible ? I figured out how to use direct and adjust direct mic into the 5D, but if I try with a SQN-4S mixer, I cannot calibrate the mixer and the 5D. Sound is just saturated and cannot adjust volume.<br> Ive seen how to do it with the mark 2 and ML but would rather not use ML if I can...</p> <p>Much Thanks in advanced.<br> Patrick</p>

<p>Hello.</p> <p>My question I straightforward. Being a student in cinema, I'm currenly thinking of purchasing a lightmeter.<br> I'd like to know one thing which isn't quite clear to me : is there an actual use to buying a so called "cinema" lightmeter? I mean, besides the fact (and correct me if I'm wrong) that I can be as lazy as just telling it what is my frame per second, and it will figure out what shutter I am using (defaulting to 180 degrees). </p> <p>Is there ANY other reasons to buy a cine lightmeter? They seem to cost a lot more than regular lightmeter, and in turn wonder if I can't just use a regular one, specify my shutter say to 1/60s and that's it. Even if I do slow motions, such as 60, 100fps and more... that won't be a problem with a standard lightmeter, right?</p> <p>The only factors that matter are my ISO, Shutter and Aperture... the FPS DOES NOT affect my exposure... Am I correct in thinking this?</p> <p>I am shopping quite a lot for this at the moment, and want to make sure I invest in the right tool. I want it to last me and not have to change not long after I'm in the field of work. </p> <p>I need this meter to work as well as in photos (strobes) as cinema, have both incident and spot reading (1 degree). </p> <p>Any advice would be much appreciated!</p> <p>Thank you,<br> Patrick</p>
