    On my MacBook Pro, I get no response for this video. Can't watch it. Disappointing.

    Hi. Was a little confused about your statement on colour temp. I was always told that something at a higher colour temperature was colder not warmer. So something around 5000k was warmer the something at 6500k. So I was wondering, why is a tungsten lamp at around 2500k look yellow if the camera is set at 5500k ?

    What is the ball head on the tripod from video - Photo with camera corrections?

    Please explain why you stated the higher the Kelvin number the warmer the light. This is opposite to fact.

    Looking forward to this.

    A great educational, thank you. I notice that when Active D-Lighting is High then you have more blinks flashing. To lower the contrast is the camera simply increasing the exposure by a fraction of a stop?
