Camera - Canon 7D DSLR + Battery





Those images shows the camera Canon 7D DSLR which we have been using nearly at all the time to film. This camera allowed us to take different shots with the use of different lenses.

32GB Compact flash card

This flash card was always in our Canon 7D DSLR camera where the all footage have been saved. After every time we done our filming, we would have to transfer the data to our laptops.

Canon 50 mm f/1.8 mf/af. 

 This lens is giving you a normal human eye effect. Therefore, we were using this lens to music video  5 -6  scene. There are some pictures to show those shots:


Canon 18-55mm zoom f/3.5-5.6 mf/af 

This lens gives wide angle which we haven't use a lot, unfortunately, but there were some shots where this lens was essential. For example our 8th scene ( Kent College's main entrance ) 

Canon 18-55 mm  zoom f/3.5-5.6 USM mf/af (wide angle) 






This lens allows you to film using dolly and the footage will be high quality even if the camera was shaking. This lens decreases has better focus then the previous lens and the footage will not be as blurry as if you would use Canon 18-55 mm  zoom f/3.5-5.6 mf/af. Therefore, we have used this lens in the same shot ( 4th and 8th ), so that the quality of the footage would be high.




Tripod - Velbon DV6000 + carry bag 


The tripod is essential part of equipment as well as camera, because tripod alloys us to steady and focus our camera so the footage will be high quality. Therefore we have made sure that we use it at all the time.


PS-Hague Pro Steadymount




Steady mount is a really useful peace of equipment as well, but we did use it a lot, because nearly all our shots have been based in one place, except of the 8th shot where we have used the Canon 18-55 mm  zoom f/3.5-5.6 mf/af lenses.


Dolly – Velbon DL-11





Dolly - very useful equipment if you are filming how someone is walking. We have used this equipment again in the 4th shot when our singer is singing.This is a picture of this shot




Canon camera bag

 
Camera bad is essential equipment, because it protects camera in case it falls. Therefore, we have used this bad at all the time.
