Yet, the catch is that both are sort of broken. The Panasonic WJ-MX30 doesn't fully function and I think it's because it overheats easily. I would have to open the cover to make it work, but after a while, it doesn't even work properly. It turns on, but after a few moments, it stalls and eveything you see on the screen turns fuzzy green, even when I fade between the different channels/sources. The Panasonic WJ-MX50, on the otherhand, functions properly except that the colors don't work on Channel B (Source 1, 2, 3, 4, Matte). When I mix, the bottom channel (B) turn out black and white, while the top channel (A) turn out to work fine with colors. Other than that, there seems to be no other problems.

I'm wondering if you can help me determine what a reasonable price (range) would be for each broken video mixer so I can sell it on ebay. So what are your thoughts? ]]> Video Forum patc124 http://www.mediacollege.com/forum/showthread.php?t=5014 http://www.mediacollege.com/forum/showthread.php?t=5014 http://feeds.mediacollege.com/~r/mc-forum-video/~3/344352739/showthread.php Thu, 24 Jul 2008 06:33:51 GMT Hi all,

Hi all, does anyone know of a reasonably priced small hard disk recorder that can record about an hour SD (PAL) video and 2ch audio, take a composite input, run off 12v and is small enough to attach to the back of a full size shoulder mount camera. It does not have to be broadcast quality and doesn't need timecode etc. I've found some high end units, but these are a too expensive for this particular job. ]]> Video Forum mfd70 http://www.mediacollege.com/forum/showthread.php?t=4990 http://www.mediacollege.com/forum/showthread.php?t=4990 http://feeds.mediacollege.com/~r/mc-forum-video/~3/338200344/showthread.php Thu, 17 Jul 2008 15:11:24 GMT Just a curious question for all of you guys (especially those of you who tend to use and recommend one NLE environment for most uses).

Hi people,

I hope you can help, I have a Sony HDR-HC9 (MiniDV) for some strange reason when recording it picks up the tape noise, you know when the tape is going round and round, and even when I capture it the noise is still there when I put it into Premiere CS3. I have cleaned the head several times, but haven't fixed it. Is this a common problem?

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Just thought you would like to know that on our side of the world the Panasonic DVC180 has made an appearance for as little as $2700!!
This model is made by Panasonic in Osaka in Japan and is a "clone" of the DVX100/102 for a lot lower price.
The new version is classed as a "parallel import" in Australia so it must go overseas for repair but has quite impressive specs including the same chips 1/3" as the DVX series and includes phantom 48v power supply and XLR inputs too!!

I really appreciated this site and it’s really helpful especially for people like us who really wants to upgrade and make our career brighter. I work as asst. cameramen in only at TV center in our country, Bhutan.
My job responsibility is to shoot short documentaries, current affairs programs, LIVE coverage MTVs’ other Programs both outdoor and indoor. We’re even required to shoot any kind of activates on self surveillance in any type of situations without any ones’ direction, either senior cameramen or director.
Therefore, as far as I concern and through my experience after going through your FORUMS that has s been provided by people like me and by some other learners at the same time with your professionals’ responds and commends it became helpful and quite educative to me.
Well then, here I feel I can post more of my doubts and feeling to any professionals so that I can learn through your guidance better.

POST1:
As I know the usage and functions of the followings, what could be the COMBINATION of each function in order to make my shots lively and better then those I have ever shot?
I mean how I should maintain the picture quality technically through the following functional combinations and when to be used like
GAIN, IRIS, White Balance, AE Shift, Shutter Speed

As for your information, I am using DSR-300p, PD170, and HDV in my organization.

I appreciate every professional who are interested in guiding me.

Thanking you all.

I am the happy owner of a Canon GL2 camera. However, after a few productions, I'm getting tired of this crappy video-look, over-exposed images.

Can anyone give me a few hints on how to get closer to a professional film-look please?
