  1. Hey guys, Have just uploaded a video of my first 2 head down jumps with Marcus Priem at the Wickham SpinFX Easter Boogie. No editing, just thrown together. http://www.skydivingmovies.com/ver2/pafiledb.php?action=file&id=3725 Let me know what you think. Cheers heaps. Jason Cheers, Jason.
  2. Man I love digital!!! Obviously resized HEAPS Cheers, Jason.
  3. My setup. Cookie MXV Sony PC1000 (Cookie BlackBox - CameyeII) Canon EOS350D (UN Quick-Shoe - Conceptus Tongue Switch) No ringsite. No cutaway (yet) Sorry about the 2 DSC shots, taken on the PC1000 to show the 350D mounted. Cheers, Jason.
  4. yer thought 100 was the trend. I use the same. I was told by someone that 400 was good, I don't know of any down sides to 100ISO but I know 400 has them (eg. Noise) thats why I was wondering. I've noticed some pics shot at higher ISO's look shit (basically) on high temp shots, at full resolution. On an average for me, I use AV and shoot: 18mm Focal 5.5-6.2f/ 100 ISO and normally get a Shutter Speed of about 1000-1250 (bright days) Cheers, Jason.
  5. Quick Hi-jack, what ISO speed do most you guys use? say on a normal (read: bright) day, and why? Cheers Cheers, Jason.
  6. wow.... I use AV (mode) and size of about 5.5-6.2 (about that) and normally get a shutter speed of about 1000-1200... many of your shots blur? Cheers, Jason.
  7. I do the same thing as you did. (Excess line) Just take more time unstowing toggles, I look at mine everytime. Left hand, Right hand, Unstow. Cheers, Jason.
  8. WayCool Redeye (.301) 4:3 (Standard) Ski and Beach Zoom in (just enough to keep helmet out of shot) Manual Focus (somewhere in the .1m vicinity) Infinity blurs with my lens, as does Auto Focus Steadyshot Off Cheers, Jason.
  9. I've just put 2 jumps on my new jacket. WOW, back to square one!! Fallrate was good but I was sliding around all over the place I jump a medium wing from RMW with FF pants normally. Cheers, Jason.
  10. These are old Racers, no belly band. Cheers, Jason.
  11. Seen a photo of 2 guys AFF'ing a Lawnmower. Now thats a classic Cheers, Jason.
  12. 350D - Sandisk Ultra II - 1Gb Shoot on Fine-Large, can fit way too many photo's on there, haha
  13. I thought FCS universal was shipping in Australia begining of March... maybe not... Cheers, Jason.
  14. No pics, or even vid, of me yet A couple I took of another Camera Jumper hard at work
  15. Yer was going to get another gig of ram, just waiting on the $$$ Cheers, Jason.
  16. You can never keep all the people happy all of the time. Different strokes for different folks I guess. The reason i wanted the filenames viewable is because most of the ID3 Tags are either empty or have hardly any info in them. I'd rather find a program that gives me that than change the ID3 Tags on over 7,000 songs IPhoto seems nice though. Cheers, Jason.
  17. Yer not quite what I wanted, cheers anyway. Downloaded Audion 3, exactly what I needed Edit to add: I've been playing around with my MacBook and found that the horizontal lines in slo-mo and in crossfade transitions is the rendering. If you render the movie on IDVD it's shit (basically) but if you render it through IMovie as a DV (Pal in my case - (AVI) movie then import to IDVD and burn, it's beautiful. Takes an extra 20mins but looks a hell of a lot better. All happy now Cheers, Jason.
  18. Got it, Cheers Guys Anyone know if there is a way to display the actually filename of the song. On my PC I had them all like so. Hilltop Hoods - The Calling - 06 - Tomorrow Will Do.mp3 so none of the ID3 tags are filled out, any way to get this to show up on Itunes? Haven't been able to find anything Few minor glitches, but I love this thing
  19. Well I went out and bought a MacBook Pro. Not dissapointed at all, beautiful machine great to work on, IMovie is very bottom end so looking at getting FCS, only thing I don't like so far; I haven't been able (either figure out or do) is to play music from an external HD on ITunes it seems to need to copy the songs to the Internal HD any way around this or do I need to get something like Winamp to play my phat beats? Cheers Guys Cheers, Jason.
  20. Beauty, thanks for all the info and input guys. Cheers, Jason.
  21. OK, It's a 1.6GHz G4 Powerbook, probably standard memory 512mb. Just running IMovie from what I can gather. I wasn't dismissing it, I just want to know exactly what I'd be in for in buying one
  22. I was just wondering if anyone has had any problems editing with Apple's. I've seen a few vids edited on apples and I've noticed. On Slo-Mo there appear to be horizontal lines. One movie is over an hour long and at times, later in the movie, the video slows down and will skip/delay (not scratch-skip), happens on different DVD's and Players. Could this be a problem with the Computer itself during rendering? Or a software glitch? I am interested in getting an Apple because they seem to have a nice interface and return a good video except for the problems I have noted. Any info appreciated. Cheers Guys Jason Cheers, Jason.
  23. My guess is that it may have been caused by the slower shutter speed, slight blur as the shutters is open for longer. I PERSONALLY, set the cam to AV and set the aperture value to 5.6, on a reasonably sunny day I get about a 1/1200 shutter speed. Just my $0.02 worth, take it as you will. Cheers, Jason.
  24. Didn't realise there was a cookie rep on the forum, cheers heaps. I'll give it ago thanks again. Cheers, Jason.
