What is your budget? How much money can you spend right away, and do you think you can get more money to invest in the future?
1000 for camera with accesories and i wont be able to go any higher.
2) What experience do you already have with cameras? Have you ever even
used one before? Have you helped your friend out with his camera? Have
you owned your own?
ive helped other people with there dslr and right now I have a HD gopro and a regular crappy camera. i use my gopro ALL the time and im really looking to upgrade to a lot nicer camera
2) What gear, if any, do you currently have? (tripod, old camera lenses, mics, etc)
I have none and all i want other then the camera is a tripod that i can trust
4) What are you planning to shoot and how do you want to use your
camera? Are you going to use this with the sole purpose of shooting
skiing? or do you think you might try other stuff as well (movies,
documentaries, short films, etc)
I will be filming a lot of skiing but alot of pictures too. Other then skiing maybe like other action sports and stuff like that
5) Do you want a camera that you can hand to your friends, that could or
could not have film experience, and let them shoot you? or will you be
doing all the filming?
I wont be doing all the filming but i will be doing most of it. I dont want to let my frineds use it unless its still on a tripod and that coulndt have any chance of breaking it.
6) When filming skiing, how do you tend to shoot? (follow cams, leave it
on record on a tripod and hike, film from a tripod, etc)
i like to use a tripod alot but have some one behind the tripod and i also like to do follow cams
7) What computer do you currently have/use to edit (if not currently
editing, what would you most likely use)? If you can provide specifics,
such as hard drive space, RAM, processor size, that would be great.
I have no clue on my computer specs other then it was like a 800$ pc and its pretty fast. I will sometimes have a mac that i can use to.
7) What program do you currently edit on? How familiar are you with it
(1- just learning; 10- I can make tutorials and know the keyboard
layout)
Im still trying to find a good software for my pc but on macs i use imovie hd and with that i could make a tutroial
1) Do you think you might consider using a DSLR?
yes i would prefure one
2) Do you have any knowledge about the HDSLRS?
some i am a fast learner though and if someone tells me somthing about it i wont forget
3) Do you know the limitations to using HDSLRS?
no i don't
4) Are you willing to take the time to learn about a DSLR, and how to shoot with manual lenses? YES
5) Again, do you want a camera that you can hand to your friends, that
could or could not have film experience, and let them shoot you? or will
you be doing all the filming? I will be doing all the filming on this camera.
I am realy looking to upgrade i love filming and photography. Im really looking for a dslr but open to everything. THANKS!!
