There was a lot of Arabic to get through and the color correction took an age to render.

Thanks for your comment.

Hi justin, the footage was shot withe the ex1 and Letus DOF adapter, with various nikon lenses. For the micro shots of the kids drawing I used a cheap sigma ?? to 300 zoom f4.

Colour corrected with Magic Bullet Looks - used the tilt shift filter on some of the shots of the kids interviews.

Many thanks,

Oliver

The footage came out really nice! I'm thinking about buying the Letus, how noisy is it when its on?

Letus is great. Noise hasn't bothered me. The adapters do suck light though.

Thanks, i was on a set today and they were using a letus, I didn't hear any noise from it. Are you only limited to using photo lenses with the letus? Someone on set said they thought that.

You can order it with various different mounts - stills like nikon and canon, as well as PL mounts for cine lenses. Prob more info on their site.

Thanks.

Hi Ramy, Thanks for the comment.
I was using the Ex1 with an 8GD and a 16GB sxs cards. I was using an HP 2133 web book to off load in the field. A bit of a pain but cheaper than buying more cards. I've just bought a couple of card adapters from e-films.com.au/ will be trying them out in the next week.

As for work flow. I'm getting used to it. You have to convert the files using the XDcam software, but with a macbook pro you just slide in the cards and it's pretty quick.

Thanks Pedro,

Egypt has a lot of challenges but there is optimism, pride and commitment especially from the youth. I think they would be very grateful for your comment.

Thanks Martjin, most of the outside stuff was early morning. We managed to get everyone out of bed very early. The indoor stuff was pretty ugly lighting but Magic Bullet helped a lot.
