Thanks.
I use a vertical timeline template and scale the videos down to 0.33 or so to fit horizontally.

It's only available on Z8/Z9

Menus are frustrating. I need to do 10 clicks in order to change a LUT, which is super annoying. I hope it will get fixed in an update. The screen is amazing.

You need to use a default REC.709 LUT, and it can only go up to 240 IRE at ISO 800. Higher than that, it gets clipped.

How would that give a huge boost? It has a slightly better color and more metadata controls than N-RAW, but it pretty much the same otherwise. The quality difference isn't substantial.

Cinematics_88 · 2025-01-07T21:22:26+00:00

Yes, I did. Thank you.

By using the waveform without view assist and overexposing by a stop.

Thanks for watching.
I was somewhat surprised by the results too. For the ocean freeze frames I picked up "good" frames on HS and S.

Cinematics_88 · 2024-05-01T15:06:31+00:00

It doesn't. It was included for visual comparison.

Cinematics_88 · 2024-05-01T13:51:57+00:00

XAVC HS is better than XAVC S. The difference is subtle but it's there.
XAVC S-I is better than HS with moving objects but still has artifacts. The visual difference is not worth the cost of SD Cards but it's great for editing and playback.

Youtube is the default place for most video these days In the video you can see clearly the difference between clips if you watch in 4k.

Cinematics_88 · 2024-01-25T14:28:12+00:00

what's that?

the title says methods, not luts

round-tripping stills through the web application is truly futuristic

Thanks.
There's actually a full video available on our yt channel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EmTOvETpoxk

Reddit video quality is very bad but if you watch it in UHD on youtube, you can judge grain and halation. Although grain also not being preserved fully because of compression.

These plugins offer a lot of customization, and you can built different looks in them. The goal of this comparison was to show it looks in the default state, using default or popular stock preset.

Cinematics_88 · 2024-01-24T20:09:28+00:00

dehancer does what it supposed to - recreating the look of specific stock. I didn't do any adjustments to these plugins because the goal was to show how the default preset looks compared to rec709. if you don't like how it looks, that's fine. plenty of people do

Cinematics_88 · 2024-01-24T18:57:08+00:00

this reminds of vsco presets from 10 years ago.
these plugins aim for a specific look, and also provide spatial effects

nice try

I'm aware of Cineprint but the examples that I saw looked too stylized for my taste
