Panasonic GH1 for Film/Video - Page 3

post #21 of 41
the shaky cam in the beginning is on purpose i believe. Alot of tv and movies do that now "Faux shaky cam".

Have you considered a gopro hero 2. My buddy has one and he tells me its awesome to get footage that normally would break your expensive cameras into pieces.

yes i know its done on purpose. but it does not work with considering BMW stands for classy, smooth therefore smooth steady camera work would convey their image much better. there is a meaning behind camera work, people dont just do stuff because it looks cool or is a popular type of camera movement thumb.gif

Go Pro is nice, but its only purpose is for being mounted on something in a location that would prove hazardous to other cameras. Not much else, and I'd like having a more versatile camera.

Different strokes for different folks I guess. The wobbly cam at the beginning didn't really bother me. I imagined it was showing the girl's POV walking towards the car. I guess I pictured it as a lil bit of story telling at the beginning, instead of just a product shot.

im referencing the other shots in the sequence that make up her actually moving to the car. im ok with a POV shot being shaky. but the shakyness of the shots following her to the car dont even follow the movement of her walking. like the sexyness of a girl walking towards a sexy car, that look and feeling was lost in that sequence.

but at a certain point i agree with the different strokes for different folks. but from a advertising standpoint every shot in a commercial is crucial to convince a person to buy something. so every shot should be perfect and have meaning in them that makes someone watching think to themselves "i gotta buy a BMW"

Welp, i dont mean to be stubborn or anything, and i really appreciate the input from everyone!

what it came down to was the budget. Best bang for buck camera. I found that today for $350, a Panasonic GH1 with 2 batteries, 32gb Sandisk extreme, a 45-200mm G Vario, FD and EF adapters, 50mm f1.4 FD lens. I wasnt looking forward to getting EF adapters but it all came in one convenient pack with this guy.

Thanks for the tips, everyone!

you're telling me lol. I have a 17-40mm F/4L, the "cheapest" L and it was over $700 when I bought it for my Rebel. Thanks for all your input.
