For the first time I got my hands on an S1 II yesterday, just in a shop. All my initial suspicions are correct, it's a second rate sensor in a very plasticky cheap feeling body. Not impressed at all with the way it feels in the hand given the lofty price tag. -
Next test is a big one - comparing a few different ways to soften the image in post. Test shots I shot a number of compositions with a few different lenses. To give a range of inputs, I shot with the following settings: - GH7 shooting 5.7K Prores HQ (1500Mbps) - Panasonic 12-35mm F2.8 at F2.8 and at F4.0 (it sharpens up a little) - Voigtländer 42.5mm F0.95 at F2.8 - Minolta Rokkor 135mm F2.8 at F2.8, F5.6 and F8.0 Shots included wides, mids, teles and had shots where it was overcast and shots in direct sun (including raindrops on things!) so there should be a range of scenes. All shots were 180 shutter and using the K&F True Colour vND. Treatment in post I then put each shot onto a timeline, and you get to see each of the above shots put through each of the following: - 5.7K shots directly on a 4K timeline - Exported from 4K timeline to 4K Prores HQ then pulled back into the main 4K timeline - Exported from 4K timeline to 3K Prores HQ then pulled back into the main 4K timeline - Exported from 4K timeline to 2.5K Prores HQ then pulled back into the main 4K timeline - Exported from 4K timeline to 1.9K (1080p) Prores HQ then pulled back into the main 4K timeline - Exported from 4K timeline to 1.5K Prores HQ then pulled back into the main 4K timeline - Exported from 4K timeline to 1.2K (720p) Prores HQ then pulled back into the main 4K timeline - 5.7K shots directly on a 4K timeline with Film Look Creator emulating the grain and softness of a 65mm neg - 5.7K shots directly on a 4K timeline with Film Look Creator emulating the grain and softness of a 50mm neg - 5.7K shots directly on a 4K timeline with Film Look Creator emulating the grain and softness of a 35mm neg - 5.7K shots directly on a 4K timeline with Film Look Creator emulating the grain and softness of a 30mm neg - 5.7K shots directly on a 4K timeline with Film Look Creator emulating the grain and softness of a 25mm neg - 5.7K shots directly on a 4K timeline with Film Look Creator emulating the grain and softness of a 20mm neg - 5.7K shots directly on a 4K timeline with Film Look Creator emulating the grain and softness of a 16mm neg - 5.7K shots directly on a 4K timeline with Film Look Creator emulating the grain and softness of a 12.5mm neg - 5.7K shots directly on a 4K timeline with Film Look Creator emulating the grain and softness of a 10mm neg - 5.7K shots directly on a 4K timeline with Film Look Creator emulating the grain and softness of a 8mm neg Yes, this is a lot of shots! Each shot on the timeline is 5s, and there are 8 shots across 17 treatments, giving 136 looks over 11m21s video. All shots had the FLC "Cinematic" look applied, and I adjusted the WB and that was it. I disabled all the other stuff, so it was just the colour profile and the grain / softening. Export I then exported it in both 4K Prores HQ (56GB!) and 4K h264 (3.65GB) and after comparing the two I uploaded the 3.65GB h264 file, which is about 45Mbps so good enough. There were slight differences between the two but it was minor and I tend to export in h264 for YT upload anyway. I will be downloading the resulting file from YT and judging the image from that file, as that's the one that gets viewed in the end. Film Look Creator settings The FLC Grain section has various settings, and has presets for 65mm, 35mm, 16mm, and 8mm, but allows you to mess with the settings. To emulate sizes in-between these presets, I interpolated the values using either a linear or logarithmic approach. Here's the values: Goal My goal is twofold. First is to work out what looks the most like cinema to me (in the final YT stream), and the second is to know what settings to use in Resolve to get that look in the final YT stream. If I could play with the controls live and see what the YT stream would look like in real-time then I'd just do that, but this is the next-best option, where I just vary something from too little to far too much and then just see if I like it and if so then where the sweet spot is. Enjoy. -
Not yet, just getting used to it in its stills role first, but next job in a few weeks, going to shoot some 7.2k with it. Not the full job, but at least some, for this specific task. For now but as above. General walkabout, venue pics etc but nah, it’s not for me. It is at least with the 28-70. -
Try this instagram page. I hope the makers and their tools make a full movie in this style. https://www.instagram.com/reel/DMNxgCdIWxR/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link -

Hey Everyone, This week's new free Mp3 music tracks are on my Fantasy 12 page: "GRUMPY MONSTER’S NAP-TIME" (LoFi) "THE BOG OF ETERNAL STINK" (LoFi) "CONTEMPLATION IN THE CASTLE" (LoFi) https://soundimage.org/fantasy-12/ I must say, "The Bog of Eternal Stink" really works well as a LoFi track...it sounds truly stinky...blech! CUSTOM MUSIC for "Warbound" I'm in the middle of creating an entire score (around 30 tracks) for "Warbound," a strategy-based RPG. If you're interested, I've provided a link to the game on my custom music page: https://soundimage.org/custom-work/ I believe the music in it right now is temp-music (not mine) but the game looks really good. I can hardly wait to hear my tracks in it! If anyone needs help with custom music, feel free to contact me! OGG GAME MUSIC MEGA PACK - OVER 1400 TRACKS (AND GROWING) https://soundimage.gumroad.com/l/ylyre My Mega Pack contains over 1400 music tracks (and growing!) in higher-quality Ogg format. Great for video games, films, podcasts and more. This is a bundle of my genre music packs: Fantasy | Sci-Fi | Funny/Quirky/Weird | Puzzle | Chiptunes | Action | Dark / Ominous | Horror / Surreal | Misc These tracks sound almost as good as my original WAV recordings, but are much smaller in file size. Perfect for video games. Ogg tracks also loop better in game engines than Mp3 format. The Pack that Grows with You I add new music all the time, plus Gumroad allows me to send users updates so you can download my newest tracks as I release them. As always, enjoy, stay safe and keep being creative!
