    15:40 Let me continue, because I m the oposit Idk a lot of cameras but on audio. 48 Volts (Phantompower) are necessary for condenser microphones. Because there is an inbuild condenser (like an energy field, where the audio signal goes through) it is necessary that it is turned on, otherwise these type of microphone doesn t work. But be careful ribbon mics can get destroyed through phantompower (48volts).

    Many thank, Carl - that is so helpful, and stylishly done with the graphics and music. Just been through your video and have a few questions if you have time: • the focus ring on my Canon 10-18 isn't working on the camera. It works on my Canon cameras. The focus ring on other lenses is working on the BMPCC. Is it because of the adaptor I'm using? It's just a cheap one. • there's no autofocus at all, pressing the button or touching the screen. Is this also an adaptor issue? • Does the battery continue to charge when the camera is turned off? • Do you know how to change the colour of the focus-assist? Thanks again.

  • @carlscinema7086

    @carlscinema7086

    3 жыл бұрын

    Does your adapter have any electronics (pins)? If not then the 10-18mm wont be able to focus, even in manual since the camera uses fly-by-wire focusing. When you use the focus ring you're not manually moving the focusing elements in the lens. You're sending a signal to the focus motor to move the elements. But if the lens has no power then it can't focus at all, even in manual due to the focus-by-wire.

  • @carlscinema7086

    @carlscinema7086

    3 жыл бұрын

    Project frame rate is your base, what frame rate you want real time footage to be at. Often for cinema this is 24fps, if you live in Europe for example alot of content is 25fps such as tv-series and so on. Off speed (also known as over or under cranking) is a way of getting slow (or fast) motion. If you set it at 48fps when your base is 24 it will be slowed back down to 24fps, giving you half speed.

    Swipe to the side (when not in the menu), select "Project" at the top, there you have a field for director.

    12:1 is the highest bitrate ?

    Other way around. 12:1 is a higher compression ratio compared to 3:1, therefore 12:1 is a smaller file size with a lower bitrate.

    Correction: the image stabilization is greyed out, but your lens could still have IS turned on, that you activate on the lens (like Panna Leica 12-60 lens). Awesome video though.
