RED Camera: I’m RED with ENVY

Ok friends, brace yourselves. The company that brought us the RED ONE video camera--that I've used and raved about before, ad nauseum--today announced their newest addition to the imaging world: not one, but two new DSMC (that's "digital stills and motion camera" in case you missed it) camera platforms...EPIC and Scarlet. Sure you remember my earlier post about the converging technologies of still and video. We've naturally been excited by the newest video dSLR's by... read more ›

Nikon D90 Mod – Steadycam from Hollywood

Couldn't resist this Gizmodo post today... This little jobber turns video dSLRs like the Nikon D90 and the Canon 5D into cheapo movie steadycams. Not unlike the Redrock "cinematizing" kit featured last week also on the Giz, this new rig features light controlling barn doors, fine focus and zoom controls, plus a monitor, a structural beam that goes past the user's shoulder, an adjustable pad, and counterweights. Rumors abound that this little dealio was hot... read more ›

Nikon D90 + Canon 5D + RED: Converging Technologies

As the earliest photographer to get his hands on the Nikon D90, I confess that a recent post on Engadget caught my attention. It called for feedback on the D90. (Another reason I love Engadget: they know that the manufactures are listening - and this got me excited).Regarding the D90, I'm of the humble opinion that this camera has very broad appeal. Not because of any brand loyalty or because I shot the campaign, or... read more ›

Chase Jarvis SHORTS: Sweet Photography Van

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-TzMbYSK5M Heading into a recent commercial job in San Diego, we were a little underpowered. Our staff Digital Asset Management guru, Dartanyon, was tied to the studio on some other business and as a result we needed some more DAM muscle on the road--and quick! A phone call later, our problem was solved... Enter stage right: The Digital Capture Systems tricked-out digital photography uber-van. Enter stage left: a new video series titled Chase Jarvis SHORTS, where... read more ›

The Caffeine Is Kicking In

So I've been mostly off caffeine for about 2 years now. Surely I dig into that go-fast java juice every once in a while when I "need" a kick in the arse, but mostly I'm off it.Until today that is... Yowza. You'll have to join me in starting off our week with some inspirational speedlinks. Portfolio reviews, iPhone tips, graffiti art, anti-graffit art, staying home with your kids, and, of course, terrorists. It's ala carte.... read more ›

Dear Light Meter: You’re Dead To Me

In a recent post, reader Clay posed the following question in the comment section: Do you ever use a light meter? If so, what are the situations?It's a good, fair and simple question, so I'll begin by answering it: Clay, not only don't I use a light meter, but it's been so long since I used one that--until you reminded me--I had nearly forgotten that they ever existed. Seriously.Here's why they're less relevant than ever... read more ›
