@shanehurlbutasc Today we are doing a XEEN lens comparison test with the newly added 14mm and 35mm XEEN lenses. We’re going to compare these lenses with the Canon CN-E, Zeiss CP.2, and our Cooke S4 lenses. To do this, we rigged it up so that we have all four cameras rolling at the same time, […]
I’m giving you the keys to the secret of False Color. Understanding the values and how it relates to the image on the screen from the camera is key.
Tiffen’s Multi Rota Tray offers a rotating polarizer, a Variable ND and Warm/Cool FX filter.
The power of the Chimera Softbank is great if you don’t have a whole lot of gear. This light is a one-man band machine. It is a creamy beautiful machine you can use as a key light.
I thought it would be really cool to take you through car mounts, and we are going to Need for Speed my Lexus with some really cool and innovative car mounts from Matthews.
The workflow I show you can be a guideline for how you can create your own setup at your new or growing company.

How I go about understanding the exposure of a digital sensor, specifically with the Canon Cinema EOS Platform – finding its soul, its breaking point, as well as its deep and dark secrets that you cannot find in a Canon manual.
Understand the RED Dragon’s breaking point with ISOs, IREs and Latitude. Know when to use the Skin Tone OLPF or the Low Light OLPF and as many myths that an artist can uncover will be revealed!

A foundation in c-stand protocols, the so called rules, are essential to live by. In the right hands and with the right instruction, this baby will change the way you light.
The master builds a camera design with forethought. They make it future proof; they think out of the box, providing a size that can intensify creativity and a workflow that doesn’t require terabytes of storage.

Your WEAPON of choice will be just that – the RED WEAPON, revealed at NAB. It is my camera of choice for my next project
Many of you have asked me to do tests on micro four thirds lenses, so I am holding to my promise to listen and deliver.
