Shooting videos remotely with 6D

Does the "EOS Utility" support video mode with Canon 6D? Or does it only work for photos?
Thank you,
Amir

The EOS Utility supports video for the 6d via only the USB cable. The video you see will be the lower resolution video as displayed on the LCD screen not the high quality video captured by the sensor and recorded to the card. This may be a marketing choice by Canon or possibly a technical limitiation due to Canon's choice of a USB 2.0 (low transfer rate) rather than USB 3.0 interface.
Note that Wi-Fi video transfer is not supported. This seems like a poor design choice by Canon for a camera at this price point.
To capture video set the camera to video mode. Start the EOS Utilitily and go to LiveView. You will see what is displayed on the LCD which may include focusing boxes and other extraneous information.

How do I set up a video conference with 2 on same network and 3rd remote

I have a .Mac account with two computers on the same home network. My wife has an iSight camera on her iMac which she video chats (using my .Mac Acct) with our daughter in another city on her MacBook Pro (she too has a .Mac acct).
I would like to join in on the video chat with my camera (different room, but on the same network with my wife).
My internet connection is Comcast (360kb up and 8000 down).
How would I do this.

Hi Scott,
OK first make sure all people have an AIM name or @mac screen name. That is one each and no shares or Alias @mac accounts. http://www.siriusaddict.com//ichat.html
Make sure all have set the System Preferences > Quicktime > Streaming to 1.5mbps.
If the Mac Firewalls are On, make sure the iChat ports are set as per these instructions:

Make sure the modem with the two computers has Port Triggering or UPnP enabled to allow multiple computers to use the ports at the same time. It will not work with Port Forwarding or DMZ as these point to One IP Address.
If the ports at the remote modem are open or they are using UPnP you should now be good to go.

Premiere (Shooting Video with Canon 5Dmkii)

Hello all,
This weekend I had the chance to shoot at a parade here in NYC. I had stage access and decided to shoot video with my DSLR. I rarely shoot video but usually am okay with the video quality. My problem tho is not with the video but with the audio. I am not rigged for professional style video capturing and only have what the camera has built in. With that said all of my audio was recorded from the camera's built in mic. I was also standing directly behind the speakers so the audio levels are very high in the Bass and pretty low on the Mids & Highs. First should I be doing my audio adjustments in Premiere? If so what are the best methods or Effects to use to gain my levels. If Premiere is not the best choice for this I do have the CS5 Master Suite 9is there another app that should be used?)
As always thanks in advance for any response and help/direction provided.

Bill, Harm,
Thanks for the responses. I do have soundbooth. Question then is can I modify the audio without losing any sync between audio and video. When I open the file in soundbooth with it overwrite the audio portion of the file only?

Can you zoom while shooting video with iphone's camera

Can you zoom while shooting video with iphone's camera

Nope, you can only zoom to take still pictures. Zooming with the iPhone's video camera is not supported. However, in iMovie you can zoom in on your video.

I used to shoot video in my Powershot S3 IS (MVI_.AVI) and load it into iPhoto, I used quicktime pro so I could convert it for emailing to family members. That was when I was running Leopard now with Mt. Lion nothing works. Videos do not open at all?

I used to shoot video in my Powershot S3 IS (Format MVI_.AVI) and load them into iPhoto, I used quicktime pro so I could convert for emailing to family members. That was when I was running Leopard now with Mt. Lion nothing works. Videos do not open at all. Any simple suggestions, I am not real keen on iMovie Productions and not real certain how they compress for emailing attachments. Something simple here that I am missing? Thanks so much. I am a grandpa trying to share with family members far away (quickly & simply).

I am surprised that Apple did not build a converter into Mt. Lion.
Apple does have a converter built into Mountain Lion. It is call "Quicktime." However, in order to use this converter, you must first make sure the compression formats are playback compatible with QT. Basically, there are three levels of QT compatibility. The lowest is "Playback." These file can be played by QT but may not be conversion or edit compatible with QT. The second level is QT "Conversion" compatible. These files are playback compatible and can be converted to other compression formats using QT. "Edit" compatible media files are "Fully" compatible with QT since the can be played, converted and/or edited by QT. The main problem here is that AVI is a "legacy" file format that has not been officially supported by Microsoft for more than 11 years when it was replaced by Windows Media multimedia file/compression formats. Many of the original compression formats used in AVI files have never been transcoded for the Mac platform, use beyond system 9, or use beyond PPC platforms. In addition, some commonly used AVI codecs are proprietary or use non-standard (hybrid) profile and level combinations. In short, there is little wonder that Apple has been distancing itself from this outdated file type as it re-writes and upgrades its own QT structure to support more standardized, more scalable, more modern high definition file types and compression formats. It is really unfortunate that users continue to use this outmoded file type simply because it is freely available, easy to use, or they are simply too lazy to move on to a more modern or more efficient file types and/or compression formats.
I tested Wondershare Video Converter Ultimate for the Mac, which seems to be the "state of the art". I may be purchasing a new camera which might create a whole new set of variables. This program seems to cover all bases and is great for novices.
There are many third-party apps available if you wish to search for them. Many are even available in the App Store. Most do their job well and it is usually a matter of personal user preference as to which is best.
HandBrake seems more suited to folks with more experience and knowledge.
I mentioned Handbrake primarily because it is free and easy to use when you employ the included conversion presets options. (The TV options can normally be used for almost any situation depending on the source file and output requirements.) It is also excellent for more experienced users, but has a somewhat limited choice of output options as it does not access the user's system QT codec component configuration.

I downloaded some videos to Premier Elements 13 from external hard drive but now the external hard drive is damaged. I tried to open the videos on the organizer which it shows the video but with a yellow ? and says missing file. Is there anyway I can open

I downloaded some videos to Premier Elements 13 from an external hard drive but now the external hard drive is damaged. While setting up my new MAC the external hard drive was dropped and I have been told by an outside source they could not retrieve the files. It had 4 years of photos and videos on it. I remembered that I had downloaded some of the videos from the external hard drive (before it was broke) to Adobe Organizer 13 when I installed the Adobe 13 on my MACOS X 10.9.5. I tried to open the videos on the organizer which it shows the video but with a yellow ? and says missing file. Is there anyway I can open these videos?
Any input is greatly appreciated!! I am sick over losing the videos and had a little hope on Adobe Organizer until I was unable to open them. I am thinking it is due to my external hard drive not being plugged in. I thought when I transferred from the external hard drive to Adobe 13 that it would be there without the external hard drive needing to be attached but maybe I did something wrong.
Thanks again for any help!!!!

It had 4 years of photos and videos on it.
To what did your camera record those photos and videos - camera's internal memory, inserted memory card, other?
Any remote chance that the latter may still exist for you to use to download the camera files to your new external hard drive?

How can I use apple remote with Mountain Lion? Any Front Row alternative?

Hi All,
I recently upgraded from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion.
All great except for my Apple Remote control.
Before, I could effectively control my iMac media with Apple Remote by using Front Row (music, photos, videos, good integration with iTunes and iPhoto).
Now, as I understand, Front Row is expired.
So, my Apple remote still works but with very limited options (just music, forward, backward and volume), and it's a real pity.
Any of you Guys know how to restore Front Row?
Otherwise maybe suggest an alternative (sth similar, should allow iMac media control by Apple Remote)?
So far I tried to restore all Front Row files by a Time Capsule Snow Leopard backup (as indicatred on some other Communities).
To restore was easy, but then, no way to launch it.
Any advice will help!
Thanks in advance/all the best.
Marco

Thanks Klaus1 for your prompt answer, although I went again through a dated discussion.
I also got the feeling that somehow they want to push Apple TV..
But, respectfully speaking towards our Friends at Apple, is it fair to promise what you don't deliver?
I have choosen apple because I percive it's different.
At currently published link: http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC377Z/A/apple-remote
they do promote the following:
Apple Remote with Mac
The Apple Remote gives you total command of your music, photos, videos and DVDs from anywhere in the room. It works with Front Row - a menu-based, full-screen interface - to make accessing the digital content on your Mac as simple as navigating your iPod. When you press the Menu button, your desktop fades and the sleek, Front Row interface takes its place, to give you control over your music in iTunes, your photos in iPhoto, the videos in your Videos folder and your DVDs. Turn up the volume. Shuffle. Skip to the next chapter on your DVD. Play a slide show, a home video that you made in iMovie, even a film trailer.
Compatible with Apple products introduced in 2005 or later that have a built-in infrared (IR) receiver. Not compatible with MacBook Pro with Retina display.
Cost for this is 15£ (19€).
Now, I have iMac and Mac Book Pro (no retina display) both with Mountain Lion installed, and I understand both of them are not compatible with Front Row.
Actually I adore apple tv and I got 2 at home nicely working on 2 different TVs.
So I accomplished twice their wish of selling this product to me.
Why shall they deceive me (and many others, as I read) by killing a still promised service?
Should I read all forums before buying a trusted-brand-product like apple, to ensure that id does what declared?
Don't get me wrong, I'm an enthusiast user of the whole apple family, since many years, and still I am.
Just politely complaining for this decision, which creates to Many an easy avoidable disservice.
Cheers

Can I use a Bluetooth headphone/microphone for capture sound instead of normal iPhone mic when shooting video?

Can I use a Bluetooth headphone/microphone for capture sound instead of normal iPhone mic when shooting video?
The sound when I record video is not so good, so I'm trying to use the Bluetooth headphone/microphone to capture a person voice but not know which setting to use.

Hi Robert
Thanks for answering. I didn't know where to post other than the bluetooth forum which is relatively quiet and had no answers forthcoming.
Yes the voice isn't reaching the amp although it is registering on the input bar in the Sound System Prefs, just won't "play through" as it were. I can't see how it could be done I was just hoping someone might see something I am missing.
It seems a shame that you can't do it as iTunes on an old iBook makes a good juke box for DJ'ing and with everything becoming wireless these days it seems sensible that you could cut that one last wire.

Problems in compatibility of iPod radio remote with iPod classic 160 GB

Hi all,
I have just bought a iPod classic 160 GB and want to buy a iPod radio remote as well. However, after I have done my research, I find the radio remote is not compatible with iPod classic perfectly…
Do you think it is a good idea for me to wait a new radio remote (maybe) or later Apple will release update?
Thanks

I use my Radio Remote with a Classic; it does everything that it had with my 5G-Video EXCEPT it will not allow me to set radio stations, either with the Radio Remote's control or the iPod's control.
I have spoken with an iPod specialist (Apple Care) and according to him Apple has acknowleged less than 100% compatibility/functionality with the Radio Remote and the Classics. One of the reasons, he stated, was that several 5G-Video iPods were "getting fried" when the Remote was not fully connected to the docking-port. So Apple has decided to reengineer the port [for better a connection, I gather]. What puzzles me the most about the new generation of iPods is why they were rolled out without warning customers that their Car-Charger, Video Player, dock, AV Cable, or APPLE'S OWN Remote will not play nice with each other!
This go around, it's find out the hard way.

Can you transfer hd video directly from an ipod and then EDIT that video in imovie? I will be on the road and wont have a mac, just an ipad 2 and ipod touch. I want to shoot video on the touch and edit it on the ipad. Thanks!

Thanks Tgara.
Its funny. So far the responses have been 50/50 on this question. I even asked two seperate Apple Store employees here in NYC, and got two different answers! One said yes, the other no.
Argh!
I know from watching the keynote speech about icloud and iOS 5 that you will be able to cut the cord between the pc and ios devices like the ipad. No more need to sync them via a cord. So will that mean i would then be able to load video directly to the ipad via tha cam kit connector from my ipod? Also i wonder if/when Apple will allow HD video from on Apple devices like a canon dslr to be able to transfer to the ipad via the cam kit connector AND be able to EDIT that footage in imovie for the ipad. Speaking of imovie for the ipad...i hope it gets an update soon as well.
Anyway....with the macbook airs getting updated next week with thunderbolt and new sandy bridge chips....i may just get one of them instead of the ipad 2 for editing video on the road. Still...i prefer surfing the web experience on the ipad. Grrrrrrr. **** youuuuuuu Apple!!! Lol

Using the video iPod with the Bose SoundDock

I just purchased the new video iPod and Bose SoundDock, I noticed that I can't fast forward through MP3s when using the SoundDock remote, anyone else notice this? Downloaded the latest updates from Apple's website, didn't help...
drakemallard

Hey,
I had exactly the same problem and updated both my iTunes software and my iPod Software (downloaded the latest iPod updater) and the problem has been fixed. My iPod video is now running software version 1.1 and I can fasst forward and rewind using the Bose remote with no problems now!
I loved the SoundDock before, but now it just feels all that more complete. Hope it helps.

Need Advice on Shooting Video in Public

Long story short, we need some b-roll footage of trucks (18 wheelers) in action, on the highway, at truck stops, etc. Am I allowed to shoot video of a highway from a public vantage point and use it in my video? I really don't want to get into the issue of release forms and such, and I don't see how I'm going to flag down some trucker to get his signature after the fact anyway. I work for a state agency, so I really can't allow us to take on any sort of legal liability and the video will be very public, posted to our department's YouTube channel. The probability that a trucker might watch the video and recognize his rig is probably not high, but real enough to warrant consideration. If this were to happen and the guy was unhappy about it, could this bite us in the rear? Or am I perfectly within my rights to shoot vehicles operating in a public space and post the footage in an equally public space? Can anyone advise? I'd appreciate it.
Thanks in advance for any help!

First, I am not an attorney, but have played one on TV. Next, I must state that I strongly believe in one's rights, regarding likenesses, property depictation, etc., but have a little story.
While shooting a series of brochures for the U of Denver School of Law, and in particular for their Transportation Law School in this case, my clients researched just such an issue, though regarding still images. I do not have all of the gory, legal details at this late date, but the finding was that so long as the units (rigs, passing autos and buses) were operating on public roads, they could be photographed, and the images used, even for commercial purposes, like the Law School's brochures. Though the railroad lines are not "public" in quite the same sense, as the highways are, they were also fair subjects to use. Airlines also fell into that category, though there was a little issue of using images of private aircraft, where their N numbers were shown. In those cases, a bit of Photoshop work satisfied the legal department. Not exactly sure what that was about.
In my case, the images were to be used internationally, but DU Law cleared everything with DOT for both the Feds and for the state of CO.
A quick call to the State AG's office, as suggested, should be just fine, and should easily clear things up. In your case, you have the potential for both the State of NY, and also the Feds to be involved, as the highways might be state, or Federal, depending on the exact highway.
Good luck, and let us know what the AG's office has to say.

Cannot shoot video ever since iOS update

Ever since I updated my mini ipad with the iOS I can't shoot a video

Have you tried resetting your iPad? Hold down the sleep and home keys until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and see if you can shoot video. often when things glitch, a reset can clear it up.

No App to shoot video?

I see this onslaught of iPhone App's of almost every type hitting the market...but have yet to see one that lets you shoot video with the iPhone's still camera, anyone seen a video app for the iPhone on the market yet?

One reason they're not allowing any might be that they're working on something themselves, I think there's a lot more to come for camera.app, like video, self timer and even photobooth like effects, maybe 2.1 or 2.2, but right now it seems they're working on the 3G fixes, which kind of annoys me personally since I'm not going to switch to 3G, HATE the glossy plastic and that it's not level on the back, if you set it on the table it wobbles around all the time.

Shooting video on the T3i

I use to have a 7D but is was stolen and I could only afford to replace it with a T3i. It's tough getting use to the different controls.
I am not liking the control dial on top with a single video setting.
Does anyone have more experience shooting video on this camera?

More information.
The mp4 files I am trying to play in the app can be viewed when played standalone on the ipod.
I added some error checking:
video1.addEventListener(VideoEvent.STATE_CHANGE, HandleStateChange);
function HandleStateChange(e:VideoEvent):void
ErrorText.text=e.state;
The ErrorText displays "Playing" when the video is supposed to be playing, although the screen is otherwise completely black.
