[QUOTE="rocketman122, post: 252265, member: 14443"] as a pro in the stills part, I feel like a reborn amateur wanting to learn to do video for weddings. I have the base of the stills so understanding shouldnt be an issue. its just certain rules for video that stills doenst have. like frame rate and what lenses, focusing which is manual (I use af only) and the biggest issue is looking at video and not understanding a good shot from a bad shot. meaning, the mindset of a videographer is different than a stills photographer. so there may be certain angle or shot that will be great stills wise, but not video and vice versa. my biggest problem is understanding bit rate, frame rate and the necessary investment I need. I have a D3 and D600 but need another camera since the D3 is lazy and doesnt want to do video. one side of me says get the D7100 and the other says stick with FF and get another d600, but another more greedy side says get the d800 which is really great video quality. the D7100 is the cheapest option camera wise, but having to get lenses for w/a like the tokina 11-16 doesnt make sense. better just stay with FF and the money I save by buying DX lenses, I can add to get the D800. im still not 100% locked yet. I saw this video [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=13Eb_1k_uao]Review: Is the Nikon D600 a movie camera? - YouTube[/url] he says the video is good, but tons of moire/AA and I dont know the level one needs for weddings. I saw edited clips and havent noticed the M/AA issues but yet I cant "see" like a videographer. I see like a stills photog. im all over the place and obviously confused. not looking to jump into it so quickly. my goal is to offer my service in about 6 months from now. there is a huge demand for dslr videographers. I have very high integrity and wouldnt jump into doing it so quickly without enough practice and proper gear and understanding it well. some direction even for something specific I asked about would be helpful. you dont need to address all the things I mentioned.
