    Rinad Amir reacted to PannySVHS in GH5S - HLG Mode - Better than VLog-L?   
    Hello, HLG with its dynamic range and color is a great curve and color space of 2020 to work and in future to deliver in. It uses the full 10bit range, whereas VLOG uses a smaller range from 128 to 768 compared to the full range from 0 to 1024.
    On the camera, congratulations! Enjoy your 6400 iso 10bit lowlight camera with up to 100 fps slomo in pixel perfect HD resolution!
    Vlog l has some awesome color science, so a great thing to have.

    Rinad Amir reacted to Andrew Reid in Who was it who asked about 0.58x BMPCC Speed Booster on the GH5S? Well....   
    Holy s***!
    First let's just say my BMPCC Speed Boosters were, erm, disassembled and rattling around in a box. Had completely abandoned them - since I stopped using the Pocket Cinema Camera - then, Metabones updated the firmware to kill the BMPCC 0.58x on the GH4 (the only camera it fits). They did this for a very good reason - it could damage the shutter, goes very deep. My EF version does not fit the GH5S at all. You can screw the glass out away from the sensor and it will mount but then no infinity and after 1 second the screen goes blank and camera says 'lens not connected'. Boo.
    The NIKON version on the other hand... It's pant wetting good.
    Not only does it fit...
    FULL FRAME field of view in Cinema 4K.
    It clears the sensor housing. Infinity focus. Actually, allows you to fine tune to infinity as it even goes past infinity!!
    By the way, with this camera, the GH5S 4096 x 2160 mode is wider than 3840 x 2160 - uses more width on the sensor (mutli-aspect sensor) - full 19mm of sensor BEFORE speed booster applied!!
    Apply the BMPCC 0.58x Speed Booster factor to that and you get...
    1.07x crop on full frame - i.e., basically nothing. Naaathing. It's full frame.. LOL.
    Here's the calculations just for fun:
    1.86 * 0.58 focal reducer = 1.07x crop Or you can do the 1.86x crop diagonal, that is 1.07x  Even more fun are the pictures.
    Oh my god.
    Inky blacks in 10bit
    F0.75
    Clean ISO 12,800 in hybrid LOG gamma
    At least 13 stops dynamic range like raw Blackmagic
    No IBIS, so no shifting vignette (Although don't expect corner sharpness to be all that)
    Sharp image wide open at F1.4 on my Nikon 58mm AF-S
    Will shoot some footage with it and put it on the blog.
    So we can finally say... out loud...
    Panasonic GH5S, full frame 10bit camera
    GH5S owners... Get those Nikon Metabones SB 0.58x out immediately!!

    So, as much as I love my Canon lenses, I am having a lot of fun messing around with vintage lenses and ML Raw. I still cannot believe how amazing the Minolta 35mm 1.8 is on the 5D3. Here are a few more shots...





    My next big goal is to convert a 58mm 1.2. But in the meantime, I think I’m going to buy a Helios... it is one vintage lens that has eluded me for the past 5 years. I found one that is listed as New Other in EF Mount? Did the Soviets make a Helios in the EF Mount? I believe it’s the 44-M 7... maybe? Also has anyone used any of the new Zenit Helios lenses? I saw a 50mm 1.2 that looks intriguing. 
    And here’s one more from the Minolta.
    Also I want to add so there isn’t any confusion to some users that are unaware... Minolta lenses will not adapt to Canon EF without having the lens modified. There are adapters but they have a corrective glass inside that is not of good quality.

    You didn't mention the pros of the speedbooster nor the downsides to going native as if Panasonic paid you.

    Its made for APS-H. Most recent Sigma ART lenses are.
    There is the Metabones Devil with x0.5 to Pentax Q. Gives 0.666 aperture
    So maybe MF to MFT is possible.

    And there is of course the MF to FF that gives x0.7 crop.
    If they ever release the Leica M to Fuji one could tack them MF to M (x0.7) to X (another x0.7). In theory at least.

    Rinad Amir reacted to DBounce in Time for a shootout?   
    I’m sort of kicking around the idea of doing a shoutout between the 1DXMK2 and the Panasonic LUMIX GH5. It’s been a while since I’ve used the Canon for video... mostly the GH5 has been my weapon of choice. But I was never disappointed with the video from the Canon. However, for grading the 10bit footage of the GH5 seems to be more flexible.
    What got me started on the shootout idea was a YouTuber who said he’s returning the Canon and keeping his 5DMk4. One of the reasons he states is ISO performance... something I have never had issue with on the 1DXMK2. I’ve managed with the limited ISO of the GH5, which The 1DXMk2 handily outperforms.
    So here’s the question... do the shootout now, or wait till I get me hot little paws on the GH5S? I’ll be using a MB SB to keep things even. 
    What do you think. Or is this one already put to bed? And I’m not just speaking about  low light.
    Oh, also... if any of you have a C200 and one of these two... or both... I would love to see how they all compare

    I read rumors that Sigma will come out soon with the Art series lenses for Sony.
    Maybe it pays to be patient and see what happens before investing in its version of Canon.

    It's essential to keep the forum organised though. Completely flat structure might work well for lower traffic sites like Personal-View.com but not here.

    Rinad Amir reacted to Fritz Pierre in Ultra wide angle for GH5: native or adapted?   
    Sorry...typing mistake, I meant "but as my 12-60 already gets me so wide"...I would recommend that if possible you try the Leica 12-60 at a shop...you will be surprised at how wide 12 on the GH5 is. If you're looking to get ultra wide in a truly economical way, I've linked the SLRMagic 8mm below...at f4 but only $176 and no adapter needed....and it's tiny. You also don't need a Speedbooster....the mount is m4/3 already.

    Rinad Amir reacted to Ed_David in Vision Color Luts - What order do you use them in?   
    Yes if you can understand that.
     
    Basically in the slog2 folder, apply either 4 things:
     
    1. CIN  (cineon colorspace originally developed by KODAK for film print to digital for Digital intermediate)
    2. FPE - (film print emulator)
    3.  VS  - (vision space lut)
    4.  I don't remember what this one is.
     
    If you go FPE or VS - it's done - it has converted it all for you.
    If you go CIN - it is now SUPER SUPER flat as CINEON log space.
    From here you go into the CINEON converter folder - and can convert to kodak 5293, FUJI, and some others. 
    This gives you more control than FPE or VS for tweaking the image, and more control over the final image.
     
    all this is in the manual on their website - I highly recommend reading that.
    also try Filmconvert - I like that a lot more  - it keeps everything in REC 709 so the highlights POP!
