Meeting Agenda:

The Digital Cinema Society Northern California Chapter will explore the motion picture capabilities of  the Canon 5D MkII and the Lumix GH1 hybrid digital still cameras. There is a lot of hype surrounding these cameras, and we will be looking at the good, the bad, and the ugly of each camera system.

Presenters include DCS Advisory Board member Art Adams SOC, and DCS Northern California Chapter President Simon Sommerfeld who will discuss their experiences shooting a spec spot with the Canon 5D MkII and the post production workflow.

Tim Smith of Canon will be present to answer questions about the 5D MkII and will give a detailed tour of the camera system. Tim will also be showing footage from the 5D MkII and discussing how the camera is being used in major production environments.

Illya Friedman of HotRod Cameras will be presenting the Panasonic Lumix GH1 and showing footage from the camera. Illya is at the forefront of using this camera in cine-style shooting and he will be demonstrating how the camera can be adapted for use with PL mount cine lens systems.

DCS Northern California President Simon Sommerfeld, and VP Trudi Melohn will share moderating duties.
