Works with Nikon D4!</p> <p>A few days ago The Com­pact Flash Asso­ci­a­tion announced a new for­mat<br /> to replace CF cards for pro­fes­sional pho­tog­ra­phers, and HDLSR<br /> film­mak­ers. The new for­mat is called XQD, and has a phys­i­cal size<br /> that falls between CF and SD cards (it is thicker than SD cards, but<br /> smaller than CF cards). The inter­face used is PCI Express, with real<br /> world write speeds around 125MB/s, even­tu­ally being able to exceed 2<br /> ter­abytes of capac­ity!</p> <p>Find out more from the link below:<br /> <a href="http://eduardoangel.com/2012/01/06/meet-the-xqd-memory-card-works-with-nikon-d4/" title="External link" rel="nofollow external">http://www.eduardoangel.com/2012/01/06/meet-the-xqd-memory-card-works-with-nikon-d4/</a></p> <p>Also Read more about the New NIKON D4 Camera System!!<br /> <a href="http://www.nikon.com/news/2012/0106_flagship_01.htm" title="External link" rel="nofollow external">http://www.nikon.com...flagship_01.htm</a></p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/tm700-w-letus-mini-and-more#post-68145 Fri, 20 May 2011 13:46:52 +0000 dadkins131 68145@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I am selling a Panasonic HDC TM-700 (32 GB internal memory, expandable w/ SD cards).Ã? This unit is literally in BRAND NEW condition.

Every now and then an ammy or intermediate gets my attention and I think their work is definitely worth a look. "Keira in the Park" is typical of what the average VM hobbyist is trying to shoot, home movies of the kids. Using a Nikon D90 filmmaker and Keira's father Trin has made quite the cute little film with the help of some advanced techniques using both steadycam and dolly rigs. Let me know what you think.</p> <p><a href="http://vimeo.com/8396823">Keira In The Park</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/user539149">Trin</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/d90-hit-the-floor-after-a-flight-accross-the-room#post-57740 Thu, 22 Apr 2010 23:03:37 +0000 artec1 57740@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>My 6 year old rushed in to the  room while i was transfering images from my nikon d90 he tripped on the usbwire sending the camera on a flight of its life time, just like the mars patfinder it bounced as in slow motion and the lens split from the body upon the third "bounce" never to be firmly attached again :(</p> <p>a tiny  sliver of a plastic that holds the lens in place , chipped off </p> <p>the camera works when the lens if firmly held in place but the moment u take away your hand .. it falls off .</p> <p>it has been a sad day in the house today ;) ... he said .. oops , sorry papa ... " you wanna play wii with me ?"  :) ...</p> <p>any idea if plastic bits off of lenses get repaired ? </p> <p>in my case its the kit lens (18-105)  that comes with the d90 </p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/how-did-they-do-this-in-nikon-video#post-52913 Sun, 06 Dec 2009 10:02:57 +0000 cmcyclist 52913@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>On Nikon's website for the DSLR D300S they show a <a title="d-movie" href="http://www.nikonusa.com/Find-Your-Nikon/Product/Digital-SLR/25464/D300S.html">D-movie by Robert Bosch</a> that I found interesting. It's listed under D-movie Productions on the product page. I like how the video was made. Particularly the mountain biking segment where there is live action, then still photos, then they zoomed up on the still photos. </p> <p>How do you do that? Is this a professional technique that would be beyond my reach as a beginner or is there software that would help me overcome the difficulty of creating something like this. I would love to be able to apply this kind of video to some projects I want to make. Can someone explain this to me and/or point me in the right direction for more info?

Shot on a Canon XHA1 using the Letus Extreme 35mm adapter and, for the movement, I used an IndiSlider (available from Indifocus.com)</p> <p><a href="http://www.vimeo.com/709560" rel="nofollow">http://www.vimeo.com/709560</a> </p>
