E90 camera question

I'm trying to take a colorful picture with E90,but for some reason after the image is captured it becomes white a little and makes an image look bad.
is there anyway to take a good color picture with E90?
Maybe there's some setting i need to tweak?
(I already tried vivid light and explosure control)
nokia 8210->3310->3330->8890->6800->3220->6680->n72->E-90->5310XM->5610Xm->n82->n95 8gb->5800XM 8gb->2630

White balance is set to automatic.
If i change it to any other option it will still wash the color :/

E90 calendar questions

Hi everyone.
As a beginner at using the E90 calendar, I have some basic questions:
#1 On a repeated event, if I want to change only one date of the events without moving the repeated ones, is it possible?
#2 Is it possible to assign a repeat on a to-do entry?
Thank You

Multi CAM Question!

Okay so I have two questions here
1) How do you sync two cameras together? For example I will be filming a school event and I want to make sure they are both synched up so that when I go into post editing it will be very simple to use the MultiCam function. Someone told me to have someone take a Picture with flash on the stage once both cameras are rolling and to place the input on that point in FCP
2) Once I import the footage from the XH-A1 how do I go in and input the footage from the Canon Mark 2? I already have a shortcut setup for this camera as far as the codec goes but how do I import the footage when the settings are already fixed for that of the xh-a1. Does that make sense? And once I get them both imported and on the same timeline how will they function together sense they are slightly diff as far as resolution goes.

The flash does not sync the cams, it simply gives you one easily identified moment to set your IN point. I prefer a clapper as it is easier to find using the audio waveform and audio is sampled many more thousands of times per frame so it can be more accurate.
Lots of posts here on how to import material from the Mark 2. Do a search.
For multi cam to work, the footage must be the same codec, time base and resolution.
Once captured, convert everything to the same ProRes format, including timebase and resolution.
Read the section in the Manual on Multicam +very carefully+ before you start. I suppose there are some online tutorials as well.

Disable camera question

I recently got a new MBP and have one question. How do I disable this stupid built in camera so iChat does not recognize or let other users recognize that I have one?
I have people suddenly popping in video iChatting without realizing there's a thing called ETIQUITE.
I want to keep other iChaters from seeing that I have this ability.
Did Apple not think some of us may not want the world popping in on us like this?
Thanks,
Chris

Chris:
The following link describes a method of disabling the camera, but I haven't actually tried it. Use at your own risk.

P2 camera question - which video files do I keep, Card files or Quicktime?

Hi everyone,
I use a P2 camera.
In final cut pro, when I log and transfer I get Quicktime files made up and they sit in my "Capture Scratch" folder.
I have been reading via this forum that I should also copy the entire contents of the P2 card to my hard drive.
As this eventually fills up my hard drive quicker, is there anything negative about wiping my P2 cards as soon as I "Log and Transfer", since I can simply keep my converted Quicktime files.
Or should I be asking, Which format is better to keep? The MXF files or Quicktime?
Thanks for your assistance.
Kris

Thanks everyone for your input.
I am not a high end user of the P2 and my workflow isn't all about having clients in and mixing edit systems between Avid and FCP, and most certainly any clients wouldn't be walking out with the master copy of the MXF files, only a DVD of the finished product.
I work for a Health Union and I'm usually filming around hospitals and Ambulances, and filming the odd press conference as well as full day health forums etc.
I do like Shane Ross' theory of "What if a future version of FCP supports native MXF editing." As well as the fact that storage is so cheap now.
Up until now I have dumped the cards files to the trash after log and transfer and I have edited the Quicktime files without saving the MXF files. So far this has worked for me and I simply import the the old Quicktime files from the original project to the new project if I ever need to use the footage again in a future video. (This usually happens as I edit a yearly wrap up video for the Union which encompasses all footage that I've used over the past 12 months).
So I guess I'll keep doing what I've been doing and look into keeping the MXF files when i acquire more hard drive space. At least for the time being I'm not shooting myself in the foot with a really dodgy workflow.
My questions have been answered and I appreciate everyones time and efforts in replying to me. Cheers.

Unique Multi Camera Question. Can't Find answer.

I have an existing sequence in Adobe Premiere. I have pain stakening taken the time to line up all my cameras. Some of cameras were only running some of the time during the wedding. And others were turned on and off during the wedding. (I know...not smart) Adobe was unable to sync the audio automatically beacuse it was pretty bad on some of the cameras.
My questions is....how can I turn the difference tracks in the sequence I've already lined up into multi-camera mode. I really don't want to have to turn on/off each track to see what the best shot is and using markers will be very difficult as well.
Is there a way to do this?
See all the little clips?
Thanks for your help in advance!

Yes, I've looked at a few "Multi Cam" videos.
I don't want them to sync my audio (I've already done that), I want to turn all my tracks into multi cam. I'll try to do what Jim below says and see if it works.

H264 and HD video camera questions

So I just got a miniDV HD video camera and was learning how to use imovie 06 HD. So much more confusing then 08. I got really spoiled with just clicking, dragging and deleting parts of clips I didnt want, this seems much more complicated.
Question is, once I finish a project, how do I use this H264 to compress the HD video? I didnt see an option for it when I clicked "Share" and then selected Quicktime. I just upgraded to QT 7.4.5 for Leopard. Any help would be great, thanks

Nevermind, just found the option. Is it supposed to take like 15 min to render a 30 second clip? Thats ridiculous.

New camera questions

It's time for a new camera and it looks like it's not going to be a DV tape camera this time. I'm considering the Canon VIXIA HF G30 so if anyone has any feedback on that particular camera that would be much appreciated. On to the questions....
1) I generally produce the edited output on traditional DVDs - no need for Blu Ray, at least not yet. Will PrE downres the video to SD?
2) Can I mix DV-AVI and AVCHD or MP4 in the same project so long as I am producing SD output? Occasionally I need two or three cameras and I'm not ready to buy several of these.
3) Preferences on AVCHD vs MP4?
Thanks everyone!
Bob

Scaling down - just be aware that your AVCHD shooting 1920x1080 is around 2.1 megapixels whereas DVD (assuming NTSC) is 720x480 which is 0.35 megapixels. So your output resolution will only be 1/6th that of your shot footage. Flipping that equation means that the downsizing process discards 5/6ths of the image resolution. Your output DVD will be of lower quality. There are so many posts on these forums complaining of poor quality when converting HD to SD - when this is an inevitability. I think what many do is connect their camera to the TV to watch their raw footage (naturally in glorious HD) and are then disappointed when they edit it and convert it to DVD. So long as you are prepared for this in advance you should be fine.
PRE can cope with mixed footage on the timeline, it's just not generally considered sensible. What most recommend is creating an HD project for your HD clips, output it to an SD DV-AVI Type 2 file and import that to an SD project containing your other SD clips. But you could also do some experimentation - put all your clips into an SD project and see what the output looks like or put all your clips into an HD project and see what an SD output from that project looks like.
PRE natively edits AVCHD so go with that.
Searching 'Canon Vixia' will give you a lot more discussion results that may be helpful.

Mic & camera questions

I'm spec'ing out video podcasting hardware for a client - he uses a new-ish powerbook, is not super-tech-savy, and wants to do video podcasting for educational purpouses. We'd like the production to be easy to see/hear, but it doesn't need to be studio-quality either.
He will be doing mostly in-person interviews in office/closed door (but not studio) environments. We're pretty much settled on using the iSight camera - my main question now is audio.
Question 1:
If both persons are within 5 feet of the camera, will iSight's mic be enough to pick up both parties clearly? if not...
I'm looking at the MobilePre USB & two MXL 990's.
Question 2:
If the interview involves more than two people, can the MXL 990 be placed between two people on a table and pick up both reasonably well?
Question 3:
Will the shock-mount shown here sit happily on a table? we want to avoid mic mounts.
http://www.musiciansfriend.com/product/Live/Sound/Microphones/Wireless?sku=27315 6
Question 4:
Will people have to speak right into the mic or is 1-1.5 feet distance okay (ie. can it function on the table)
Thanks for your help!

N95 8GB Camera question

Hi,
I just got my phone and I love it so far! but I'm puzzled as to why the camera is unprotected? Didn't the earlier version have a shutter?
I'm very careful with it, and really don't want to hide it in a custom "sock" :-) ... I'm just surprised. Why offer 5mp and a Carl Zeiss lens and leave it unprotected?

Incidentally, according to my local nokia shop, they decided not to include the shutter on the N958GB because people complained about the shutter catching on their clothes and opening in their pockets.
Sound like nonsense to you?
To be honest, yes. I've never had my N95's shutter open on its own in my pocket and it sounds more like the bloke was searching for a plausible answer to the question why the shutter was removed.
I think it was simply a way to reduce the production cost of the handset.
Maybe Nokia will consider putting it back on future models if enough people raise the concern.

Remote camera question

Not sure how to do this of if it can be done.
I'd like to be able to use a remote wireless camera paired with either my iBookG4 or PBookG4 and be able to access the camera's lens from a remote location online. In other words, if I have the remote targeting a certain area of my home while I'm not there, can I use my other laptop for viewing???
Mucho thanks,
Carolyn

Yes, presuming that the camera either can connect directly to a network or that it's connected to a computer with appropriate webcam-type software.

Built-in camera question

hi everyone, the green light of the built-in camera is turned on as if it was active but when i go into photoboot or imovie nothing appears on photoboot there's only a green square and on imovie not even the black screen comes up. anyone know something about this?

IF it is turned on (green light) when you arent using the applications u mentioned that means another process is using it at that moment. Therefore you cant use it in photobooth or whatever... You can try going to applications>utilities>activity monitor and look through the list at possible culprits. You could try quiting the processes you think it may be until the green light goes off.
Also check your login items in your account setting in Preferences to make sure some sort of software isnt loading up at startup and hogging the use of your camera. Delete anything in the loginitems that look completely useless (this wont harm your Mac at all, even if u delete them all) Infact, do this one first. Then do the one I wrote before this.
Lastly, try uninstalling anything you may think may have caused this to happen.

Re: nokia n8 camera question

Ethanobama says
"on my Nokia n8 I use to profiles
-Autimatic
-User defined
The only difference is the Sharpness
-Autimatic = Normal
-User defined = Hard
My question is there any difference between them? I am no photography but I do enjoy taking photos with my N8 and when I do I want the best quality I can get so I use User defined with Sharpness at Hard but to me it looks the same as Normal is there a difference?
Thanks"

Hey ethanobama, Welcome to the Nokia Forum!
User defined is similar to shooting Manual mode, You can save shooting presets which you have configured yourself.
Sharpness merely creates more definition between points of contrast (mainly edges) and makes the contrast alot higher, as a result it makes things like hair and pores in the skin stand out more when high.
For example when taking a photo of a person in a forest, with high sharpness there will be a more defined edge between the persons body and the forest in the background but the effect can be very minor.
I hope this clears up any confusion you may have previously had.
