Hacked GH1 at 100mb vs Panasonic GH2

In this video we have an absolute direct comparison to the latest lpowell patch for the GH1 vs the Gh2 at 1080p 24.

Quick notes: GH2 still has the upper hand in color reproduction and absolute resolution, but this is as close as a hacked GH1 can get to a GH2.

Nikon D7000 Video Mode – Mini Review

Spent a half hour with a D7000 and here’s my brief conclusions

Likes:
Solid Construction, well laid out menus
Shutter and ISO control while shooting
Dual SD slots

Dislikes:
No aperture changing while in Live View. If using a electronic lens, you must stop recording, exit liveview and change aperture.

Conclusion
Without going into the video quality (which matches Canon at 1080p – moire and all) the inability to change aperture while in liveview is a deal killer unless you plan to only use manual lenses. What was Nikon thinking?

Tubemogul – PlayTime Now targeted ad program for youtube

For several years we (akirawing) (eyepatchentertainmen) have tracked our youtube channel performance with TubeMogul.com

Today they have announced Playtime which allows advertisers to “buy in-stream video ads on YouTube in real-time selecting specific publishers from a list of thousands of YouTube Partners, including top media companies, new media outlets and hit shows unique to YouTube.”

What is great about this that advertisers will have more tools to help bring even more focused and relevant advertising to our channels.

For our subscribers this means more detailed and focused equipment reviews which are at least partly subsidized by our youtube revenue.
