Apple Magic Trackpad
So the other day I picked up one of these:
And right away started using it like this instead of putting it off to the right like I would a mouse. Makes sense right? It works great like this, in fact I started scheming a case to put and keep this set-up as so.
So far here is what I’ve found…

I watched the clips and being that this is a pre-production, 85% done, compressed to 720p, then again by vimeo and I believe the ISO can’t be go beyond 400 in this version…
I say, not bad.
The colors are very Panasonic and not at all Canon. Really organic, natural where as I’ve always found Canon images (XL1 and DSLR) to me, to be way too saturated. But you can dial that down...

Been following this camera for a little and it is nice to finally see some video of it in someone’s hands.

YES!
HERE. WE. GO.
This is what I’m looking for. This interface works via wi-fi but the guy in the video says it is possible that this could work via bluetooth.

Wow my mind just got blown, a little. Not by this gadget but the possibilities that are (probably) coming for the iPad and video production.
Foward to 03:33 to see what I mean.
Edit: Another mind blowing fact… the base system is ONLY $1000!
(I don’t get why everyone is comparing the iPad to a netbook or laptop. You people need to stop doing...

My Redrock Micro vDSLR Rig.
karenabadmfa:
So I got an email from a lovely Mr. Brandon Walowitz asking to detail all the parts and accessories in my vDSLR rig set up, here, so here goes. Before I begin please keep this in mind. I am a HUGE fan of Redrock Micro, Zacuto, and Cinevate. However, to buy this entire rig from either of these three places costs a couple thousand dollars, money that I can’t really afford to spend on...
Lenmar Batts for 7D $42 →
Lenmar equivalent to Canon LP-E6
edit: discovered that the maH rating is lower for the Lenmar version. 1600mAh vs 1800mAh. I think the extra 200 mAh’s (whatever that means) is worth the extra $20.
