Hi,
I am about to start shooting my first documentary with 5D3+ML in Asia. I have been following this lovely forum for quite a while and learnt a lot but time is running out and theres still lot to learn and to understand. I would love to have idiot check from someone who has knowledge and experience is my workflow bulletproof (or at least rain proof) cause this is something I havent tried yet:
Shooting to MLV -> slimraw -> CDNGs to hardrive and backup, erase CF-cards and original MLV. files. I know it may not be the best idea to erase original DNG-files but as we are shooting non-budget doc (or lowlow budget), all the pennys we can save makes difference. Perhaps I should always go through CDNG to be sure that theres no erros? Btw is there a tool for that? Any suggestions?
My back up plan is to shoot with h.264 If everything will falls apart. But after working only a short moment with ML it would feel wrong
