Edwin Lee: Video Producer & Photographer

Powerful full HD camcorder with Super35 EXMOR sensor

Can shoot in PAL/NTSC 24p, 25p, 50p 1920x1080

Can utilise Sony NEX, Zeiss, Angenieux, Lomo and Lomo anamorphic lenses

The NanoFlash recorder (see below) can also be used with the FS100 to record up to 220mbit/s footage for superior video quality.

Micro 4/3 camera that offers powerful video capabilities. Recordable bit rates up to 166mb/s at full HD, equivalent of AVC-Intra. For comparison: Canon 5D MkII averages 45mb/s; Canon C300 at 50mb/s

The GH2 is now primarily used for time lapse projects

Shoots at 1920x1080 24fps and 25fps, 1280x720 50fps

The Sony NEX-5N is the latest jump in mirrorless camera technology that offers superb HD video quality that is on par with DSLRs.

It has an APS sensor which is nearly the equivalent of 35mm film.

The 5N will primarily be a B-Cam to the FS100, or used for low-profile shoots

The new generation Zeiss lenses are the sharpest in the world. They offer crisp edge-to-edge sharpness and are ideal for high-end videography. Useable on all cameras mentioned above.

I own:

18mm f3.5 Distagon
28mm f2 Distagon
50mm f1.4 Planar
85mm f1.4 Planar

I currently have two Lomo anamorphic lenses that have 2x squeeze for cinemascope widescreen.
Anamorphic lenses are used in most Hollywood productions and produce unique anamorphic flares.
The ratio on a 16:9 image would equal 3:55 aspect ratio.

These were designed and manufactured in the Soviet Union and are not produced anymore. Modern anamorphic lenses such as Hawks are based on Lomo designs, and cost tens of thousands of dollars.

These lenses are only useable on GH2 (Micro Four Thirds) and NEX-5N (E-mount)

50mm T2 round front anamorphic lens
30mm T2.8 square front anamorphic lens

Revolutionary new rig system for enhanced mobility and mounting options while filming

The Mini JIb Crane is an extremely portable system. It adds very high production value to any video. Ideal for show rooms, weddings, product demos and specialised cinematography. Available for overseas productions.

LED lights + warm gels:

1x 500 LED
1 x 240 (bi-colour) LED
1 x 96 LED

Full LED solution for 3-point lighting. LEDs are light, compact and consumes far less energy than conventional tungsten or fluorescent lights. They also produce nearly no heat so it will not cause any discomfort to actors/interviewees during long periods of shooting.

Professional audio recording device (can be used with filming) capable of 44.1/48khz 16-24bit WAV format for superior sound. Also has twin XLR inputs for professional microphones

PC-based editing systems including After Effects 7 and Premiere Pro 2.0
