Hi there
Great website!
I am all very new to shooting movies and have recently purchased the Panasonic HDC-SD1.
I've spoken to a friend who is an experienced BBC cameraman who recommends I get a there small light that is as light (no pun intended) as possible. He says there are some tiny ones around and thinks the one Panasonic recommend is too big and bulky.
He suggests gettong one that will run off the same battery as the Panasonic camera, or its own internal one....he says "You dont want to end up buying incompatible batteries."
Does anyone have any recommendations?!
For microphones, he recommends Sony and one that comes equipped with, or can easily attach to, a wind gag and with a really long lead. And if possible it should be a clip-on (tie-clip) microphone he claims the on-camera ones are crap unless you pay £500+ !!!
Again, does anyone have any recommendations?!
Your help is much appreciated...
