EX3 workflow/settings for film out at DVinfo.net

Micheal McAlexander · February 9th, 2009, 06:57 PM

Hey all,

I'm getting ready to shoot my first feature with my new EX3. Can anyone point me to some info (or can you tell me) the best EX3 settings if I want to eventually go out to film for theatrical distribution? Some questions I have are:

1. What is the best frame rate? 24p from the EX3 or go with higher rate and change it in post?

2. Setting for Gamma and all those other cool things I don't yet know about :)

3. Workflow suggestions (I'm going HD-SDI out to CF cards because I've heard this gives me the best quality video for later editing in FCP)

4. Anything else you can tell me would be greatly appreciated :)

Cheers,

Micheal
