Thanks Matt

I didn't use a DOF adapter so thats twice the compliment :) I actually really wish I had the Merlin for this shoot, there were so many good oportunites to use it.

Wow. I could have sworn there were a couple of 35mm shots in there .... Nice!

thanks mate, yeah who needs 35mm adapter!?!?! (just dont watch my other vids :P )

I actually don't like extreme shallow DOF as it can start to look like a cutout, but just a good balance of bokeh.

Thanks :) yeah it was shot in 1080p A1 and HV20 stuff

I shoot 25p (no 24p available in PAL land) and in HD. This was a mix of A1 and HV20 footage and that's it pretty much (no steadicam,adapter etc). The lighting in the church was actually not that great so I pushed it in post, on the hv20 shots its more evident but the A1 no problems at all. Ikan is daylight so makes white balance in the reception tricky, I use some gels to convert it to tungsten but that means loss of some of the light strength at the time of the shooting I actually couldn't get my hands on the correct gel so the didn't quiet work properly. The litepanel will be the same and from what I read it comes with proper gels so you would need to use them at the reception otherwise white balancing is a pain.

Yes if you plan to use it for professional jobs. Low light its much better, proper manual controls,picture profiles etc..

Thanks AGJ, I didn't use any presets to help match 2 different cameras, but did all the grading in Post within Avid.

yeah just in the reception on camera light, and couple of detail shots like the ring.

yeah magic is in the grading, its always best to shoot with as much latitude as you can, presets can crush some colour/image information.
