Help Me Choose a Camera & Frame Rate...
by Dan Pavlik on Aug 31, 2009 at 6:34:58 pm

In a nut shell, here's the situation:

Shooting a feature comedy with very limited budget.
I'm a writer/director, and won't shoot this myself.

Cameras availble to me: HPX170 with 35mm lens adapter, HPX300 with stock lens, and HPX900 with stock lens.

Questions:

1. Which camera would you use?

2. What frame rate?

3. Is there a technique with shutter speeds or something else to mitigate the stuttery nature of 24p.

4. If I go with the 900, is there a versatile lens to rent that won't break the bank?

Thanks in advance for any help. If someone is a wizard with one of these cameras and can make it sing, I'm willing to talk.
The movie's site is http://www.nominatedthemovie.com
