| ChodeMasterJ Perpetual Marxist 5405 Posts 4/03 |  Posted - Aug 17 2010 : 12:37AMIm hoping this doesn't get moved to Tech Talk because not many people check that forum. BUT, does anyone know of any sites that shoot their video on a DSLR, like a Canon 7D or 5D Mark II, etc? Those, and cheaper versions, shoot 1080p video now and the output is very nice. You have to use an external mic because the mic on the camera is kinda meh, but it's like that with a lot of pro HD cams. At school, we shot some stuff on a 7D and it came out quite nicely, minus the sound problem. I'm just curious about this because I think it's a cool concept and it's very economical if it works since not everyone can afford a super badass HD camcorder, but some of these cameras are under $1,000 and double as great stills cameras. Any thoughts or opinions? thanks.  [Link] |

| ADT44 Member 876 Posts 7/09 | Posted - Aug 17 2010 : 6:33PM I like photograpy a lot but more the coffee table collecting book part, lol. What kind of school do you do? Do you want to be a photographer when you are a big chode?  7d is a cool camera, it would be my choice to buy. But to be honest, I rather use that money to buy (designer) clothing. Hm, you didn't do anything with my advise? How disappointing!!!!     https://forum.adultdvdtalk.com/forum/topic.dlt/whichpage=2/topic_id=151843/forum_id=1/cat_id=1/151843.htm Anyways, as to sites you are looking for, what about this: http://www.pornpros.com/episode/?episode=2505 No way that stuff is shot with a pro-cam or profesionally edited to make it look like cheap (point&shoot/DLRS like) vids. Cheers, Bud.  Edited by - adt44 on 8/17/2010 6:34:35 PM [Link] |
| ChodeMasterJ Perpetual Marxist 5405 Posts 4/03 | Posted - Aug 19 2010 : 3:26AM I'm going to school for Communications/Film and I do photography as a hobby. The 7D looks really nice, but I've read reviews of the Rebel T2i that put it up there with the 7D in terms of specs and quality and it's about half the price. If I had the money though, I'd get a 5D Mark II, but I'm a poor college student. haha. I think the option of having full HD video capabilities on a camera would be very neat. A lot of photojournalists are using them for that. That's what I read at least. I'd like to be involved in Film when I graduate in a year (fingers crossed), so hopefully there will be jobs and a market available for it then and that it won't be over saturated with people. I'd love love love to be involved with porn somehow but people I know from the industry on here have said it's a bad time to try and get involved with porn right now due to the crash of the dvd market and everything. Idk. I just wanna be happy with whatever I do. haha. I could always shoot porn low key around here, but I need a good camera first. That's partially what this thread was about. haha. Getting a good D-SLR that does video and good pics would be like killing two birds with one stone and save me some money. We'll see though. I'm still researching it... Thanks for the info everyone!

maltedecker  All-Star Member 369 Posts 5/07 | Posted - Aug 19 2010 : 3:50AM But then again I'm not shooting video with my camera and probably never will even if my next body offers the feature so I don't know if these features are worth getting the 7D over the Rebel T2i... [Link] |

| tabithastevens Member Tabitha Stevens, Porn Super Star, Celebrity TV personality, Regular guest on Howard Stern,Dr.90210, 264 Posts 7/09 | Posted - Aug 20 2010 : 2:43PM Shot the first one about the same time last year, even before 23.98 was available. I just intercut the footage from the CANON 5D MKII with 35mm footage I shot five years ago. It's beautiful. I'm glad to say we won't be lugging a 60 pound movie camera around anymore. FYI the 35mm footage was shot on Arri BL4, telecine was on a Spirt to D5 4:4:4. That's a heavy weight telecine done at Fotokem. The fact that the Canon kept up under most circumstances is unsettling! It can have moray in some cases though so be careful with that extreme detail. Also, if you really want your 5D footage to LOOK great do double-system sound with a great field deck and good mics like Sennheiser. Then post sync. If it sounds strange that I said LOOK great... when your soundtrack is good your images will 'look' even better. That's why music videos with poor image quality can look so good!

| Jaktarn Senior Member 4798 Posts 5/05 | Posted - Aug 21 2010 : 6:31PM Gary: I assume you have worked on 35mm in mainstream productions? Or is it in porn aswell? I have never heard of anyone shooting porn on 35 on a regular basis. [Link] |

| ChodeMasterJ Perpetual Marxist 5405 Posts 4/03 | Posted - Sep 25 2010 : 12:44AM [Image not found DB] Next will be a Zoom H4n recorded for the sound, but that's about a month or two off since between the camera, lens hood/mount, and 2 SD cards, I'm gonna be strapped for cash for a little while, factor in paying off the rest of this semester's tuition and I'm poor for a while. I've contacted two t-girls in Houston about doing something. I said photos or a solo video or whatever they wanted but haven't heard back yet from either. I'll keep on trying and sending out feelers to the girls who I'd like to shoot. Cross your fingers that someone bites because I've got some ideas that I'd like to try that I think would look good. I got 1000 niiiiiice, great quality business cards made, too, for my photography side business that I'm trying to get going really well so I can ditch Walmart and just do photography. Fuck Walmart. Cross your fingers on that too. I'm also gonna start on my first of three Super 8 films for my Film Production class this semester, so I'm psyched about that. That was a little rant, but it was all photography-related. haha. Any opinions on any of it? [Link] |

| ChodeMasterJ Perpetual Marxist 5405 Posts 4/03 | Posted - Sep 29 2010 : 2:16AM Ditching that shithole would be amazing. I got mine off of FedEx.com and they're really good quality for fairly cheap.

| Van Styles Member Starr Power 306 Posts 1/04 | Posted - Nov 2 2010 : 3:51PM I know a lot of people are shooting dialogue etc with these types of cameras but I think this might be one of the first gonzos shot entirely with them..... I might be wrong so someone can correct me if I am. I think the quality and look of this movie is superb and I think viewers will be able to tell a big difference off the bat [Link] |
| ddl33 Member 442 Posts 2/08 | Posted - Nov 2 2010 : 6:45PM I'm praying this movie comes out as good as you say. [Link] |
| Van Styles Member Starr Power 306 Posts 1/04 | Posted - Nov 2 2010 : 7:52PM I know Jenna cares a ton about putting out a quality product for her fans and if she had any doubts about this she wouldn't have given the green light to shoot the whole movie with these cameras. [Link] |

| ChodeMasterJ Perpetual Marxist 5405 Posts 4/03 | Posted - Nov 2 2010 : 11:07PM That's cool news Van. I'll def have to keep my eye out for that movie. That's interesting that other studios are starting to notice some of the advantages of DSLRs now. What cam is it shot with? So you still haven't gone back to a regular video camera Mike? That's awesome! I shot a wedding with a buddy of mine. We just did it where we filmed things like the ceremony, of course, but also mixing in a lot with the crowd in the reception and everything. He was going to edit it together into a 4 or 5 minute short film for the bride and groom. He shot his on a 7D and I shot mine on a Rebel T2i. The low light abilities were very cool. During the reception i had my lens on f/1.8 and it worked very well. In one of my Film Productions classes this semester we're required to shoot a project on Super 8, which seems very archaic considering that the quality absolutely sucks and you can't tell if what you captured looks good until you ship the film off to be developed and get it back and view it. I'm doing a project about long distance love over the internet and judging on the quality of our previous group project on Super 8, I know it's not going to fulfill the vision that I want to get across. What I'm gonna do is while I have the actors there to get all my shots in various locations I'm going to do some takes on my DSLR to use for an HD version of the film that I'm going to put together. I wanted to use a lot of night shots, but Kodak only makes 2 kinds of Super 8 film...color and black and white...and they're NOT very sensitive to light at all, so all the night shots and low light work i wanted to do can't be done on Super 8 basically. That's where the DSLR will come in handy and I won't be as constrained with options like I would be on a 30 year old Super 8 camera. I'm pretty excited about it. [Link] |
| Van Styles Member Starr Power 306 Posts 1/04 | Posted - Nov 2 2010 : 11:12PM I shot this with the 5D Mark II and the 60D. I got a amazing custom rig that makes a dslr feel like a video camera, which is what was my biggest grip about shooting video with these things when they first came out. Jenna has definitely developed a great eye for directing along with attention to details in outfits and locations so mix those elements with these cameras and there is something pretty cool there.

| Mike Quasar Zero Tolerance Reluctant pornographer 1765 Posts 7/01 | Posted - Nov 3 2010 : 10:38AM Next year by the time NAB rolls around you'll see a ton of new video cameras incorporating big DSLR-type sensors and the ability to use cine lenses which will render all of this expensive aftermarket crap we've had to buy to use the 5D and 7D absolutely useless.

| ChodeMasterJ Perpetual Marxist 5405 Posts 4/03 | Posted - Nov 5 2010 : 10:25PM That's awesome that you got her a 5D! I wish my dad would have bought me one. haha. I'm happy with my T2i, but I haven't gotten to use it as much as i've liked yet. I kinda put myself in a little bit of debt buying it too, but oh well. I'd like to get a Zoom h4n mic for it, but that's $300 i don't have. My buddy has one and they're amazing. I can't wait for those days to come around when you don't need all the aftermarket stuff to get the most out of shooting video on a DSLR. :) [Link] |
