One of the best thing about freelancing is being able to donate time and talent to nonprofits. It always bring me joy.
Missing the lights is a nightmare. I always assume I have forgotten something when I leave for a shoot. If I don't put hands on it before leaving I'm worried.
It does feel pretty good to give to others!
And the crazy thing is, I had them by the door with my other gear! I guess I was just in another state of mind when I left for the shoot 😅
I’m sure you’ll rise to the challenge and still produce something great, despite the technical issue. Can’t wait to see it all come together! Also - GO ALBERT 👏🏻
Albert was great!
And thanks for the support, always 😊
Hey what's the V number on your SD Card? I think S5ii's officially support V90's but will still "work" with V30's or V60's. If it is a V90, I'd assume maybe the card is dying. Either way I'd probably replace the card. Also were you dual slot recording? Unsure if that would have avoided this issue but good to know looking forward. Also I'm a NJ videographer looking to colab/trade 2nd shooter jobs, but still working on moving from full time working at ad agency to freelance.
I believe the Extreme Pros are V90s. I could be wrong though… what’s interesting is that is doesn’t have the issue recording at 1080, and I couldn’t replicate the issue after the job, which was bizarre.
I don’t dual slot record, but it may be something to consider for future work! And I’m contemplating making the switch from SanDisk fully to Lexar or Angelbird.
I just recently moved out of NJ, but I do have a number of contacts still in the area I’d be happy to connect you with!
Could be two reasons. The card isn’t fast enough or the card is going bad. Are you using the Sandisk Extreme Pro 300 MB v90 II? I had a similar issue with the GH5 years ago. Turns out the SD card wasn’t fast enough for 10 bit 422. It would record for 5 to 10 minutes then stop.
I’m thinking it was the first reason. I went back and looked at my codecs and I think I was filming in Cine 4K 10-bit 422, but I didn’t realize the different aspect ratio would matter that much. I feel like when I’m filming my personal projects I’m usually in 4K, 10-bit 422.
And yeah, I think that is the card I’m using. Honestly though, I’m thinking of trying out the OWC or Lexar cards. SanDisk has been kind of letting me down lately!
I’ve heard good things about OWC and Lexar. I don’t think you can go wrong with either. It’s fortunate that we have access to ultra fast media. Unfortunately, it’s not the most exciting purchase after purchasing a camera
