Video recording quality.?




Colossus 9


Can a Video Camera user tell me if it is possible to give a video camera recording more of a movie/film quaility with more saturated colours ect, and not look so cold and harsh like a 'My Birthday party' video. Is there a filter I could use or is it just down to using proffessional video cameras.
Thanks for the input guys.



Answer
You will need some kind of mini-DV or HDD video camera at the minimum ... something that will produce broadcast quality video. You can shoot using 16:9 aspect ratio to give you the look of Wide Screen.

But to really do what the big boys do, you will need a HD quality video camera. Panasonic, Sony, JVC and Canon are but four that make such cameras.

Here is a link to one such camera

I will have to assume you have a video editing system with the software necessary to edit professional video.

FS100 Canon camcorder video recording help?




Brittney


Okay. So my mom bought me this camera a few christmases back.
But I haven't really started to use it till now.
It's a FS100 Canon camcorder.
Here's a picture. http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41Wf9bCCQWL.jpg
Here's my problem. When I record a video on it, it won't upload to my Macbook.
It says that the file can't upload.
To record my videos I put the camera on the record button and just hit it.
I didn't change any settings on the camera from when I got it.
Also, I don't know if this helps but I record it on a 2GB SD Card.
I'm almost 100% positive that the memory card isn't the problem though.
Since I've tried it on other cards.
Please help me. I really want to use this camera for it's full use.



Answer
The Canon FS100 is a standard definition, flash memory, consumer, camcorder that saves video files to MPG file type. iMovie cannot deal with that file type directly so the file needs to be transcoded - converted.

MPEG StreamClip

and
Flip4Mac
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/video/flip4macwindowsmediacomponentsforquicktime.html

should both be downloaded and installed to your Mac.

Convert the MPG files to MP4 MOV files... then quit MPEG StreamClip and launch iMovie. Drag the converted files to the sequence pane... edit..
