I’ve been asked by a couple fellow users to post a guide on how to do ramped slow-mo’s in Sony Vegas 7.0. Well, here you go, a step by step tutorial!

1. First, you’ll want to have your clip in the appropriate track and everything ready to go (trimmed and such.)

Well, I’m going to take the time to outline some stuff here that is relevant to photography, and hopefully you guys can understand it and apply it to your pictures if you haven’t already…

The Basics

What is SLR?

SLR means “single lens reflex.” The main thing to understand here is that whatever you are seeing through the viewfinder is how it will appear on your prints/negs/etc. There is no shutter delay, as one may find in digital P&S (point and shoot).

In this guide I’m going to tell you everything you need to know about what makes that wheel spin on that axel.

We’ll address this in an FAQ format.

What is a bearing?

A bearing is the circular component that fits into your wheel and lets the wheel spin properly and efficiently on the truck’s axel. Included inside the bearing are the balls which help the actual bearing spin. There are between 4-8 balls inside your bearing, depending on what kind you buy.

What are the different sizes?

There is only one universal size for skateboard bearings. The ONLY exception to the size is Element’s Micro Bearings, which are intended to fit in their micro-core wheels, but not many people know about that.
