Cosplay Music Video - AWA 2014

minilink · 10-04-2014, 08:32 PM - **5 Likes**

Here's a Music video I've done during the Anime Weekend Atlanta 2014 convention in Atlanta in September.
I used a Pentax K-01 with a manual prime lens 50mm f1.4 and a fish eye Rokinon 8mm f3.5.

Also here's a small issue I have with the K-01.
I'm a bit disappointed that the K-01 doesn't give you full manual control on video when you use a manual lens. It gives you the option to select the M (manual) mode for video when it is actually not. Changing the iso and shutter speed actually does nothing on the K-01.

Good job. I liked it.

I'm neither into anime, cosplay or Taylor Swift - but you did such a great editing job that I really enjoyed watching the whole thing.
Well done - I'll look at my K-01 a little differently now

Wow that was amazing! Did you play the song so they can sing / lipsync the whole song, or is it just specific parts?

Yes I had the song played in the background

It made synchronizing the video in post production so much easier and it also helped people with the lyrics

Sounds like you're still using v1.00 firmware.
Video mode plus M setting in the video menu give full control over Iris, shutter speed and ISO from v1.03 onwards - it was the best fix done to the firmware so far, when they switched off the 'auto ISO' ramping up and down that was going on before.
