David Kong<\/a> here, with my second post in this video\/article series that is all about working with less gear, for less money, and making it look good<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

This video goes very in-depth with the DSLR<\/strong> – I cover everything you need to know about formats, codecs, and dynamic range in order to get the most cinematic images. I’ll be explaining how I creatively worked around the limitations of this low-end DSLR with a pretty bad codec and pretty bad dynamic range. Most of my techniques in this video are about preserving as much of the image as possible, to allow for the most flexibility when color grading.<\/p>\n

I shot this particular film on the Canon T2i\/550D, so the discussion is framed in those terms, but all of the principles apply equally well to most DSLRs and many other video cameras.<\/p>\n
