Digital SLR Film-Making
by admin ·
Philip Bloom is an expert on Digital SLR film-making, and he has shared some of his tricks of the trade to inspire others to try their hand at DSLR film-making. His first tip is that you must stabilize your camera. Even if you can't afford a hand-held rig to mount your camera, you can still achieve basic stabilization by placing the camera strap around your neck and using it as support while you are filming.
For Canon DSLRs in particular, Philip likes the 5D Mark II to apply different picture profiles in-camera to achieve certain effects. It is difficult to get quality audio from the built-in microphones in any DSLR, so Philip has been using the Rode Video Mic Pro, which is a small on-camera shotgun mic with a hotshoe mount.
