I really liked everything of this film. I am interested in purchasing the 5diii to get the Raw capability. I have a question, what was the use of the shogun? Just an external monitor?

Hi braxtonk,

Thanks for the feedback !
We used the shogun for two reasons. First, comfort and monitoring (the small 5D screen is too small) and second, to record the takes and be able to play it back for validation purpose. MLV is great but you can't play it back smoothly in full res so it's hard to tell if the actor's performance was good or not. Any other recorder would have done the job but we happened to have a shogun at hand :)
