22Mar Resolution Battle, is the 5d mark III a disappointment?

Picture from EOSHD.com, head over to Andrew’s site to check out his full review of the 5d mark III along side his video tests. I’m currently still waiting for my 5d mark III order to ship and of course I’m hunting around trying to find every last spec of information on the camera while I wait. […]

04Mar Jangus Stereo Wireless Wi Zoom h4n prototype mounting adapter

I’ve been working on a practical setup that combines the Zoom h4n with the Jangus Stereo Wireless adapter. This would allow you to mount your Zoom h4n to the base of your boom pole, monitor your audio, and send  a stereo audio back to the camera. This would mean no cables and no syncing issues, […]

If you’re still on the hunt for more pictures and info on the 5d mark III release, Kai from Digitalrev was one of the lucky one’s who attended the press event in Hong Kong. Digitalrev was able to film a short hands on video comparing the Mark II and Mark III. The ISO performance of the […]
