I'm a broadcast DP In San Diego. I enjoy sharing what I'm working on and testing new equipment. This blog is also part of giving back. I've learned so much from so many people.
OSX Mojave DOES NOT support new Nvidia drivers
I was reading this Forbes article and it doesn’t surprise me Apple isn’t at least for now supporting Nvidia drivers. I feel they will soon. Apple released a couple eGPU’s and you guessed it they are loaded up with AMD GPU’s so this alone is a reason for the CUDA snub. The article is from Forbes.com and worth a […]
Apple iMac Pro sale. Might be a time to go pro!
Sales are popping up and if I find a good one I’ll share it. While I love my 2017 iMac 5K it sure is tempting to upgrade to the Pro model especially with 4K and beyond. Here is the sale link. Five models are on sale with savings from $300 to $1100 depending on the system specifications. Thanks […]

Bright Tangerine MisFit Atom rocks!
I love this Bright Tangerine MisFit Atom lightweight matte box so much and it’s on sale now for $362. Regularly $477. That’s $115 off. It’s a great fit for smaller lenses with the 114mm to 77mm adapter like the one I have in this picture. The Canon 24-105 is such a great video lens as well. I […]

Reviewing the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K
I had the BMD Pocket Cinema Camera 4K in for a Newsshooter.com review but only for two weeks. Not a lot of time for a working DP to know all the ins and outs of a new piece of kit let alone a cinema camera! On the final day before sending the camera back to Blackmagic Design […]
Quick Tip: Use Waveform, Zebra or False Color to nail skin tone
I had a shoot yesterday and sometimes I take for granted my workflow. I love using a waveform when shooting. Even the tiny one on the C300 MKII is so useful. Here is an 800% enlargement of the talents forehead. Nailed a nice 65 IRE. Skin will look great with a little CC. Don’t guess. […]
Excellent Fujifilm X-T3 walkthrough video tutorial
Since I’m fairly new to the Fujifilm camera world, I like many of us with a thirst for a tutorial turn to YouTube and I struck gold with this one from Michael Andrew aka “Michael The Maven”. Nice work! He covers pretty much the whole camera but doesn’t go deep and I’m fine with that. It’s a great push start. Below is […]
Time to say goodbye to my 2009 Mac Pro. You served me well
Early this year I decided to get a new or should I say refurbished 2017 iMac. I love it! I did hold out to get the one I wanted refurbished to save even more. In the end, it cost me $2,289.00 for the 27″ with AMD Radeon Pro 580 Graphics Card (8GB), 64GB RAM and a 512GB SSD. […]
November was a busy month
With Thanksgiving all wrapped up and yes I’m still full! Well, maybe not full but definitely carrying a few more pounds. I’m sure I’m not alone here right? It’s time to get back to work! I have so many reviews coming very soon on Newsshooter and a big one is the new Blackmagic Design Pocket Cinema […]
