Do You Want to be a Grown Up?

It’s kinda fun doing things the wrong way. You can buy a fancy slider (I did, I love my Glidetrack HD), or you can feel so much more clever and agile turning any tripod into a jib arm. We’ve been having a lot of fun shooting with DSLRs, co...

Wednesday’s Great Debate: Canon 7D or 5D Mk II – Which One Is Best For Wedding Photography?

Good Morning Everybody, I not sure what happened, but between Monday and Tuesday in Bar Harbor, Maine, it looks like the word got out that must be the center of the universe for summer travel. Parking lots to the top sites in Acadia National Park were...

Converting 30p to 24p

As the long-awaited 24p firmware update for the Canon 5D Mark II draws near, I joined Mike Seymour on episode 57 of the Red Centre podcast to talk about how excited I am that it marks the end of painful workarounds for the 5D’s no-man’s-lan...

Readers of ProLost, pat yourself on the back.

In the 18 months since Canon announced the Canon 5D Mark II, you’ve written, you’ve called, you’ve left comments here and on Vincent Laforet’s blog. You politely but firmly harrassed Canon personel...

Mojo Tour

Magic Bullet Mojo has been out for a few months now, and you guys seem to be figuring it out fine on your own, but I thought I’d record this guided tour anyway, because when I put the headset mic on I feel just like Janet Jackson.

Magic Bullet Mojo is $99 on...

Astute ProLost readers will have noted that Nocturne has always been viewable on my YouTube account, since Canon never asked me to take it down, just Vincent.

Best CF Cards for 5D, 7D Movies

I’ve been vocally recommending that people interested in shooting video with the Canon 5D Mark II, Canon 7D, and upcoming Canon 1D Mark IV, use UDMA, or “Extreme IV” Compact Flash (CF) cards. This was based on some hard-won personal e...

Quick Hit Monday: Canon 7D Noise – What Noise? Test Driving Lightroom 3 BETA; Ink-Jet Will Last Forever – Well Almost

Good Morning Everybody, Hey, I've got some good items to report on today.  First, I pulled the trigger on a new Sony Vaio Windows 7 laptop so I'll keep you posted on the trials and tribulations of getting everything set up on the new machine and...

What should I buy?

UPDATE: See below for thoughts on the Rebel T2i.

Many people ask me which camera they should buy. It’s a question I duck and dodge like Steven Seagal.
