Here is a liitle behind the scenes of our camera prep for a short film tilted “Someday Hero” written and Directed By, Darcy Fray. We are using both a Canon5D Mark II and Canon 7D. We are also using Zeiss ZE Primes a Canon 70-200mm and a Tokina 16-50mm. Following focus with an Arri MMF-1 Mini Follow Focus. We are using a mix of Red Rock Micro and Zacuto accessories on the set. I hope they play nice. Marshall monitors for monitoring and a bevy of other gear supplied from Birns and Sawyer, Hollywood. Thanks for all the support. We will try to shoot “BTS dailies” to document our process. Thanks for checking it out.

Why do you use Zeiss lenses? Is there really so much difference compared to Canon-L lenses? Okay, if you compare photographs from the 5D Mk II at 100% there is definitely a difference but also at 1080p video?
Wow thats a dream kit!
I feel the T2i is the best canon for filming on the market right now, but it seems like now a days, Editing is the most important thing too good looking film making
I also have the Contax Carl Zeiss primes and I also made my own semi permanent lens gears similar to the ones in the video.. heres my tutorial..
just type “DIY lens gears for HDSLR”
I take hand outs so if you guys don’t need that Tokina keep me in mind.
hi , whats your opnion about the 16-50mm tokina lens, is a good lens?
i wanna buy, but i dont have certeinly …..
THX!
i love canon dslr 7D =)
Fun! Thanks and cheers.
woah….I wish I was camera-literate (to the professional level that is) so I could actually shoot real, professional short films. Blah!
rental or purchase? Rental is about $50 per day purchase is around 1K each. hope this helps.
Jared ? how much did you spend for the basic equipment, those 2 lenses and the entire zacuto equipment for both cameras . An approx estimation would be cool
fuckin jealous
