    The camera that made David Lynch fall in love with shooting digital. (He shot INLAND EMPIRE with it.)

    I have my VX-2000 and PD-150 on the shelf behind me. We wouldn't be here today, if the old school didn't pave the way!

      @brandoncameracollection  8 місяців тому

      Haha yeah super hard to ride though because it doesn’t turn unless you tip the the board left and right. Kind of like turning on a snowboard

    Sony PDV184N DVCAM 184 Minute Tape
    Even this one?
    Thank you sooooo much!
    I have a shoot next week and would Love to use my PD150

      I actually didn’t know there we’re specificity made DVCAM tapes 🤔 as long as it’s a mini DVD tape you should be good. And since the pd150 is a DVCAM I think the footage should look better with a DVCAM tape.

    Hey Brandon, great video! Do you record your clips to clear click?

    • @brandoncameracollection
      @brandoncameracollection  7 місяців тому +1

      No I used to but I found a vcr/dvd player with a FireWire in port and it has hdmi out so I convert that to usb and it connects to my laptop. I have a video about it on my channel.

    Shooting with an interlaced camcorder, uploading 60p on YT, yet the samples are 30fps. How come?

  • @LOOOVEIT
    @LOOOVEIT 2 місяці тому +1

    Hi. Do you know what dvcam tapes I can use? Or… do you know what external recording device I can use? I have a shoot in a week and am hoping to use this camera. Thank you!

    hi brandon i’ve been doing research into getting a sony fx1 along with a clearclick 3.0. Im not sure how the video transferring would work since the fx1 takes S video and only the yellow AV cable. Is there any way you could give any clarification

    • @brandoncameracollection
      @brandoncameracollection  7 місяців тому +1

      So if I was you I would try and get a Sony MRC1. It is a recorder that records through FireWire and it records your footage to a CF card. You’ll just need a cf card reader for your computer to recognize it. I should be getting one myself here in the near future and I will be making a video on it. But because the fx1 is a HDV 1080i camcorder the footage is not going to look very good through the clearclick since it only records analog signal which is what av and S-video is

    Do you know if you need a 30-37mm step up ring for a dvd810? I’m getting a 37mm fisheye for it and someone said I needed step up rings

    • @brandoncameracollection
      @brandoncameracollection  7 місяців тому

      Yes the dvd810 has 30mm filter threads on it so you will need to use a 30-37mm step up ring to use a fisheye on it

    This microphone mount was a piece of rubber that eventually melted over time. Fun camera though ❤

      Yeah unfortunately they are hard to find original replacements for too. I enjoyed the pd170 more though
