[Frameworks] Voice over

Patrick Keiller ('London', 'Robinson in Space', 'Robinson in Ruins').

And not to forget some of the most haunting voice-over performances ever --
the films of Marguerite Duras ('Agatha et les lectures illimitées', 'India
Song').

Re: [Frameworks] DSLR for shooting video of 16mm?

The Panasonic GH4 has the synchro scan feature, too, and I have benefited
from it while recording projections off wall and Steenbeck screen.
