  1. Sweet Tito. I remember you saying in a recent vid you were going to add an oval aperture to a Canon lens. Do you plan on posting the footage? I'm a recent subscriber to your YouTube channel and have enjoyed the vids!

  2. Do you have any vids taken on the A7s (or another full frame camera) with one of your lenses with an oval aperture and a 1.5x anamorphic that you think do a good job of replicating the feel of a 2x?

  3. Holy crap, I really undermined After Effects. My main concern is that is there a way that it can be cropped up to 3%? Well I found something even better than this, ReelSteady.

    Yeah, I read this article about Reel Steady and was very impressed. More interested in the SteadXP though.

  4. I always give Mattias a thumbs up on his vids but on this one I didn't vote as I think those who argue there might be a danger with some vintage lenses are more likely to be correct. Still, I did laugh at the scientific chart Mattias included, so thanks for that, and I don't think he deserves to be attacked for the vid- I disagree with him about a vid, it's not the end of the world. I wish everyone would chill out and dial down the outrage.

  5. This guy is a pathological lier. 

    Even for a second don't believe what he claims. He was the one behind the E-M1 4K fiasko. 

    Keep your camera safe and away from any of his hacks. 

     

    That sucks. 10 bit 422 and an anamorphic mode would have been sweet.

  6. This is what I'd like to see:

    1. Dramatically better low light performance (I think we'll see a small improvement)

    2. Internal 10 bit recording (will be surprised if it happens but not shocked)

    3. 5 axis IBIS that works with any lens (there will be some type of IBIS but I doubt it comes close to the Olympus IBIS in terms of effectiveness)

  7. Even Cinestyle had none of the degrading qualities of V-Log here. S--log2 doesn't, C-Log doesn't, all in 8bit with even lower-end more-compressed codecs. 

    After investigating (cool word for pixel-peeping) V-LOG on the deep image quality level (deep meaning it's way less significant for normal viewers vs. me) what I see is:

    1 -More noise, shadow and midtones. Not just more, but worse looking noise pattern (coloured/blotchy)

    2 -Banding, colour banding and posterization everywhere especially in the area between shadows and mids, 30-40IRE-ish

    3 -A colour shift I can't remove for the life me. Neutral/Cine-D are more natural/accurate.

    4 -Increased highlight DR by about a stop. Actually sees more into the highlights. 

    5 -Slightly less shadow DR (clipped earlier, more noise, colour posterization/artefacts)

    (benefits of v-log are in Bold)

    Tested enough to decide shooting CinelikeD unless Panasonic or someone else fixes V-Log. I couldn't care less about the slightly less highlight clip.

     

    Yikes. After all this time, and supposed money, Panasonic has put into it and it's really this bad? I have a hard time believing it.
