Best way to focus for video with T4i

Having problems with jerky focusing when trying to video slow moving animals like deer for example. Any suggestions as the best settings for such a situation?

I'm new with the T4i...
I use one of two methods.
1. Let camera auto focus and then switch to manual to prevent seeking.
2. Manual focus...

  • Best way to share a video with someone in another city...

    What is the best way to share a video with someone in another city?
    I know that FCPX contains all sorts of share options which create different resolutions and file sizes appropriate for different sites like YouTube, Facebook, and others.  But how to create the videos really isn't the problem.
    I want to know how to share them.  I'm creating videos that are ultimately to be viewed on the internet.  When I have a completed video, I want to show it to the person who it is for before I finalize it.  I know that if it very small, I could email it.  And if it's larger, I could use something like Dropbox.  But I don't necessarily want them to have a copy of it (though I could do that and put a watermark on it).
    I'd like to upload it to a site like YouTube or Vimeo, but those sites seem to be about sharing videos with a wide audience.  I know you can make a video private on YouTube, but, from what I've read, they permanently have the right to use the content, which I definitely don't want.
    So what's the best way to do this?  I'm going to have to do it regularly, so I'm willing to pay for a service if it assures privacy and does not try to assert some right to my content.
    I know there is an issue to be considered with people screen capturing content, but I'll use a watermark to lessen the chances of that.

    Hi Russ--
    I'll have to read through Vimeo's terms of service, but I have to think they're asserting some right to the content like YouTube does.
    Plus, these are commercial videos, and I don't think they allow that.  Of course, if they're private, I'm obviously not trying to sell anything.  But I have to think that it somehow is against their TOS since me posting a bunch of private videos that nobody can see really doesn't do them any good at all.

  • What is the best way to record a video(not big) for free on a mac w/isight?

    What is the best way to record a video(not big) for free on a mac w/isight? I need to just make a short (less than 5 minute, no special effects) video, but I can't figure out any programs that will make this possible for me.
    Thanks.

    Hi Carolyn,
    you can use iMovie to record a video for free on a Mac with iSight.
    1. Open iMovie HD
    2. Choose “Create a new project”
    3. Name the project for example “iSight Movie” (first field). In the second field, let the default location “Sequences”, in the third one, video format, choose “iSight”. Push “Create”
    4. iMovie window opens, next to the scissors, choose the camera (Camera mode), then iSight. Now you appear on the screen, right?
    5. Press “Record with iSight” in the main picture window.
    6. Press the same button to stop. Your new clip appears now in the clip panel at the right.
    7. You are done!

  • Fastest and best external hard disks for video use with Imac?

    What is the fastest and best external hard disks for video use with Imac (I believe it is currently not possible to use Esata on the Imac).

    For DVCam. HDV etc, I'm a fan of the G-raid drives. From personal experience they
    are very solid performers. I only had one issue with a new drive that was replaced
    next day. They are not the cheapest drives to be found but the build quality
    is excellent. Check out:

  • What is the best way to email a video from iPhoto? It won't let me share a video!

    what is the best way to email a video from iPhoto? It won't let me share a video!

    Size is not the issue. In the old iPhoto you used to be able to share a video and it would compress it to fit an email friendly size. It doesn't do that anymore from iPhoto. I miss that feature. I have to export the video from iPhoto to my desktop then take into the old Quicktime 7 to share in email. Crazy.
    It shouldn't be that complicated. I shouldn't have to find a work around. I guess apple wants to put  you in a box so you have to do it "their way" via uploading to iWeb or iCloud instead of emailing video.
    I don't like those options being taken away.  While the quality may suffer by compressing for email, it is still the most direct and unconvoluted way of sharing something fairly quickly. I don't want to have to post to YouTube or Vimeo or iCloud and send a link. Just compress the video and hit send in an email and be done with it.

    What is the BEST way to get my macbook with lion on it, to communicate with my Canon 40D camera? It says the utility disk is a PowerPC app and that is no longer supported. What do I do now? I can't upload photos from my camera.

    Also, I had the same problem happen when I tried to install an older version of Corel Painter. Are Macbook Pro users just NOT supposed to be able to use their laptops for the purposes they are best designed for?

  • Best way to transfer DVD videos from laptop to ipad air

    Best way to transfer DVD videos from laptop to ipad air

    presuming they're not copywriteed commercial dvd's, you can use a program like Handbrake to convert the dvd files to mp4's that you can then import into iTunes and sync to your device.
    If they're copywritted commercial dvd's then you'd have to break the copywrite encoding to transcode the files and since that is illegal in the US no one here can help you with that.

  • HT1338 best way to extract a video from a website?

    what is the best way to extract a video from a website? THANKS!

    how bout a bit more thought on this one, some people are trying to pull a video clip from their 15 seconds of fame on channel 7 news,
    or perhaps a short intro video clip, on a site they own becuase it is playing as flash. since they never had hard copy of the video clip, its difficult to ask themselves for permission, if they don't know how, which is, i'm sure, why this fellow did indeed ask.
    no such thing as dumb questions...just helpful ones that others may also wonder.

  • Best way to fill a datagird with A LOT of data?

    What's the best way to fill a datagrid with A LOT of data.
    I'm talking about something like 10,000 rows. Can the datagrid
    handle it? No screen is large enough to show 10,000 records..... is
    there a way to load 50, and then when a user scrolls down it loads
    the next 50 etc...?

    Right. It's not recommended that you load 10,000 rows into
    the datagrid at once. Using the data management service with paging
    enabled is a much better solution. See the Configuring the Data
    Management Service chapter in the Flex2 Developer's Guide for more
    info.

  • What is the best way to prepare for CERTIFICATION?

    what is the best way to prepare for CERTIFICATION?
    what is needed?
    where can i read more about it?

    Hi,
    Do as much as possible exercises based on your course material(which will be more than enough).
    If you know (some) Java and have understand the basics of OOP then this is enough for the exam.
    And do not forget:
    it is a multiple-choice test meaning that you see the possible answers.
    Either a single answer is correct (then you will have radio-buttons) or several answers are correct
    (then you will have checkboxes; in this case almost all questions will have more than one correct answer).
    You can refer to the topics for the certification
    https://websmp102.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/011000358700000499112003E
    Some links which might help

    Yes more questions comes on OOPS so get your OOPS concepts very clear.
    You don't need to do extensive coding in OOPS.
    Just get the concepts clear and i am sure the certification will be a cake walkthrough.

  • Custom IAC applications the best way to go for putting R/3 screens on web?

    Hi all,
    I am trying to figure out whether a Custom IAC would be a best way to go for putting custom developed R/3 transaction on the web. We want to put the R/3 transactions on the web but want to completely customize the look and feel of it. Is IAC the best way to go for it? will this work with any kind of transactions?
    cheer,
    i028982

    Hello,
    The ITS might not be the "best" way, but it sure would be an easy way.  If the transaction and screens are already created in the R/3 then you could just go to SE80 and create HTML templates to see if it will do what you want.  Steps:
    1. Transaction SE80
    2. Choose "Internet Service"
    3. Type in a custom developed z* name
    4. Right-click on the z* name and choose Create > Theme
    5. Create theme 99 (standard theme)
    6. Right-click on the z* name again and choose Create > Template
    7. Type in all information, theme number, program name and screen number.  Play with the "Generation Style" to see which one would better fit your transaction.
    After creating the screens you can publish to your ITS and give it a test.  Maybe this is all you need, if so, it would be fast and readily available.
    Best regards,
    Edgar Chuang

  • Best way to build a website with hundreds of pages

    What is the best way to build a website with hundreds of pages that include businesses in every city of the U.S. I will be building it in Dreamweaver CS4 and pulling the data from an MS Excel spreadsheet.
    I started building it by building the first page and then saving a new page with new data and so on.
    There must be a way to pull from the Excel doc without copying and pasting each page of data, and there must be a way to build this site smaller and easier to make changes when needed.
    Thanks

    You already have other people addressing the DB issues - so I will bring up the other... You are just saving a copy as a new page and then copy and pasting the changed content into  it?
    What you want to do is take the first page, once you have your design done - and save it as a template (file - save as - Dreamweaver Template).
    Then you want to select the areas (most likely the divs you have content in) that will have content changed, and select the div or p or whatever element... and go to Insert - Template Objects - Editible Region.
    Make sure you don't made editable the areas that are the primary design - such as a logo element, a header image, the navigation etc.  If you want to change those - you would do so by making the change on the template, and then it will automatically update all pages made based on that template.
    Once you are done setting up the templates - go to your new page and choose Modify - Templates - Apply Template To Page
    Select the template you just created (note it will be placed inside of a new folder titled "templates" automatically by Dreamweaver).
    Now, any of the areas you selected to add different content into will be selectable, and you can copy/paste or however you are doing so.
    Good luck

    You can share songs, but if there is DRM protection on the song, it will not play on the other device unless you also transfer the rights to the other device. You are getting into the problem of music piracy.

  • New MBP - Best way to care for battery?

    Not sure if this is necessary anymore, but I am receiving my new MBP in the mail later today. What is the best way to care for the battery? Should I plug the MBP into the wall for an amount of time before turning it on, or at least wait until it is fully charged before turning it on for the first time? Is anything like that even necessary anymore?
    Thanks,
    Keith

    Here's what Apple recommends:

    Best use is frequently and lightly. Be sure to calibrate your battery every two months or so:
