Geoff CB got a reaction from TheRenaissanceMan in Grading in Davinci, VGA port makes things look too pretty?
If your monitor only has VGA, get a new monitor if you are doing color work. Or trust only the scopes.

Geoff CB reacted to Hans Punk in What's your favorite action movie?
Léon A.K.A 'The Professional' is not only my favourite Action film, but probably my favourite film all round.
Young Luc Besson at his finest, drawing upon his real life admirations from an illegally young girl...add guns, Portman, Reno and a crazy ass Oldman performance all in glorious Anamorphic, you have a winner right there.

Whoops, forgot you have to raise the level from 4.1 to 5.1 before changing frame size. Sorry about that.

So glad that somebody bumped this (being a new member) - a wonderful piece of work all round.

Start with vimeo 1080p preset then:
Export in 1440p CBR at 90 mbps for 1080p
On 4K export 120 mbps CBR.
This is a 1080p that I upscaled to 1440p for vimeo.

After selecting CBR there should be a slider underneath you can drag to adjust bitrate. For 2560x1440 you need to uncheck the box beside 1920x1080 and manually enter in the numbers.

Geoff CB reacted to SR in Let me share this music video shot on Micro Cinema Camera
I quite enjoyed that. You capture mood very well.
Ignore Dbounce. He reminds me of those guys who feel the divine need to educate everyone, like those commenting on classical piano videos on Youtube screaming, "That's not how the composer intended it to be played!!!!!"
Can I ask, how big are the 3:1 compressed raw files? Your video has me seriously considering the Micro.

Geoff CB reacted to Marco Tecno in Petition for Samsung NX1 hack
This feature really made my day. You press af on, then shutter does not focus anymore and simply takes pictures. Best feature ever for sport shooting where you take many pics at a given (same) distance or where you want to keep a subject in fucus by keeping af on pressed (with caf) and take pics when you are ready.

Bulbramping (minus the need for a "bulb")
just keep in mind, that NX500 when in rolling-shutter mode will not do longer than 1/15 exposures
have fun

If Kino Seed can get this out of his NX500 with bitrate hack, I think you have very little to worry about using this camera in lowlight. @kinoseed what are your in camera settings? (I guess there's no Gamma DR on the NX500, so this will make a very interesting answer, I think.)

Geoff CB reacted to Zak Forsman in Your favourite 1080p 60fps image?
23.976 (sometimes "abbreviated" as 23.98) is a broadcast framerate, of which 59.94fps would be the broadcast equivalent of shooting 60fps for slow motion. while true 24fps is a theatrical framerate, of which higher speeds like true 60fps would be matched for. nowadays, our televisions and monitors are capable of displaying everything, but I work in the post world and also have released a couple movies where your broadcast master has to adhere to broadcast delivery specs. this means a framerate of 23.976. and so I'm in the habit of keeping things on the broadcast side because the stuff I produce is destined for televisions -- DVDs, Blu-rays, iTunes, Netflix, etc all run at 23.976fps. If I was using the Micro as a crash cam on a studio level feature that was destined for theaters, I'd be shooting 24 and/or 60. They would later retime the finished movie to 23.976 for broadcast.
and what kidsrevil is referring to is that when television was invented picture and sound had to run at different frequencies. so a slight offset of 29.97 was used instead of true 30fps. when things shifted to a slower framerate in recent decades, they moved to 23.976 as opposed to true 24. now i don't know how necessary that really was today, but i believe it's just one of those things that have stuck around and remained the standard regardless.
yep, i leave the shutter angle at 180°.
Sigma 50-100mm f/1.8. Matches their 18-35mm f/1.8 well, but is twice the weight. the lens support pictured isn't necessary, this is the first time I'd put it on the camera so had it there just in case.

Geoff CB reacted to Jonatan in Let me share this music video shot on Micro Cinema Camera
Thanks to the guys who got it. It is the official video for the song. We wanted to create something very authentic hence the excessive use of camera shake and "home-video" feel.
I'm not a fan of performance videos. I know them and I have done several. This is one.

I also liked it and agree that you can call it whatever you want and regardless of what you call it it is well shot and looks good.
Having said that my suggestion is IF you want to make it look like a more "traditional" music video just take a few hours and shoot one generic cine that fits in with the theme like in the hotel room or in the woods(or both) of the person lip singing the full song or even just the chorus then inter cut that footage throughout the video. That would make it a more traditional music video.
DISCLAIMER: I have never shot a music video in my life so take my advice for what its worth.

Geoff CB reacted to Oliver Daniel in Let me share this music video shot on Micro Cinema Camera
In the commercial sense of the term, well no, this video is not a "music video" - something which is made to sell records, concert tickets, merchandise and generally promote the brand of the artist. I assume this video was not made for that function.
For the purpose that it's made though - the filmmaker can call it whatever he wants. A short film, vacation video, visual poetry, video journal, experiment, music video, whatever. Does it really matter? I was more interested in the shots accompanied by the music track. I enjoyed watching both in unison. It's a music video to him whether we like it or not. And he did very well.

Wow, gorgeous work. I know you were shooting natural light and it works for most of the video, but I would have loved to see some fill added at 2:41 and 2:47. Other than that, great stuff.

Geoff CB reacted to Raafi Rivero in my feature premieres in LA, June 2nd
Hi EOSHD community,
I've been a daily reader and pretty regular commenter here over the past year, and wanted to share some exciting news. My first feature film will premiere at the LA Film Festival in two weeks! It's been a labor of love and a lot of work to get it to this point, so I'd love for any of you in the area to come out to the screening and to meet IRL. Here's a link for tickets, and the trailer's below. Also of note to readers is the many formats we used to shoot the film. Partly out of necessity, and at times for aesthetic reasons we ended up shooting on at least 5 different cameras and formats: Canon C500 4k Raw, RED, C500 HD, full-frame Canon DSLR, Panasonic GH4, and even iPhone
Let me know if you can make it!
