now you can point out that the big shots are using these and if it's good enough for them, it's good enough for you... and then there is dean's bitter condescending comment as well... here is a reality check for you: feature $100 million, TV show $2 million, blow job video $500.

are you seeing any disparity there in the budgets? so while we all want quality product for our members we do 'NEED' to make a profit... or at least I do... I have a family to support... I'm not sure about your's and dean's financial sitiations... so if you have the budget to shoot a bj single cam with a crew... OR you want to sit back and shoot the entire scene with a 35mm 2.8... that is awesome... unfortunately my clients won't accept wide only footage and $500 isn't enough for me to hire a crew and spend 2-3 hours doing a BJ vid.

honestly I see these threads popping up every few days it seems like. I have 2 thoughts immediatly. 1. the guy lives in his mom's basement and is 14 and 2. the guy is a newb and/or not making any serious cash.

Ma dalton just invested in the nex fs100 system and I know he's going to convert to canon glass... it's going to be interesting to see what he comes up with because he has a very good and expereincced production crew... IMHO tho... he is never going to get an unedited, infocus, with closeups scene. and I hope like fuck I am so totally wrong, because if he can, that means I can. and will so jump the fuck out and buy the nex fs100 the very next fucking day.
