Myownfriend Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Can't help it. I tend to like a less punchy grade ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexTrinder96 Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Just a quick grade. I like a slightly low con look Right is with the 4k pocket lut and left is my grade. Loving the colour from the camera! Adept 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anaconda_ Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 If these are camera files, why is the 'Nature' footage, which was supposedly shot in RAW actually a ProRes file? I also notice there's no audio on the clips. Were the mics turned off or have these files been adjusted for the downloads? Grant made so many comments about the built in audio, but has given little info away on it. It doesn't really matter, but I'm just curious ?

And it looks pretty oobvious that he did. Actually, he didn't. According to the files that we can now download, 'Close Up Night' was 192 deg and 'Walking Day' was 215 deg. @John Brawley do you know / remember if that's correct? Also, that's what I thought about the audio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBounce Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Ok, I wanted to see how organic/filmic I could get this footage without going too vintage. I was going for something filmic while still modern. What do you folks think? Ignore the low resolution image below... it's actually at 1080p and looks much better. Not sure why YouTube always show these awful looking placeholder images? deezid and mercer 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deezid Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Ok, I'm sold. No artificial sharpening, looks way smoother than in the vimeo clips Amazing level of detail for a 4K sensor. Great colors. Great dynamic range. Rolling shutter seems low. (where's the chroma noise from the vimeo clips?) Here's a BMD Pocket 4K Color Science 4 to Rec709 conversion + curve screenshot JordanWright 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anonim Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Is it just me that can't download "Models Walking at Night" clip?

On 9/1/2018 at 5:18 PM, John Brawley said: It's the same size. Here's some examples of scenarios for me where using a micro that will be replaced by a p4K once I can get one. JB Yes I've been on GEN 4 for a while with the Ursa's and of course the P4K and use them for monitoring. It's VERY hard to go back to using VIDEO. JB I love these BTS production stills. And it still makes me happy to see your stripped down Micro rig. I may forego the P4K for the time being and pick up a used Micro and I was curious how you expose your Micro footage in these scenarios? With my limited experience with the Micro and Pocket, I would zebra at 90% for ProRes HQ. Do you meter your shots? Zebras? Waveforms or False Color? And did the P4K’s sensor change your method in any way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somebody tried denoising the ISO3200 footage? Works extremely well and looks way better than anything I could even achieve on my GH5 using ISO1600 actually... Download here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1wUgDW2keiCEiEKb9F3kSLOr6Pwm5u7uq (used Neatvideo (70% opacity) and grading in Davinci Resolve) BTW: walking-night footage is available now! anonim and wyrlyn 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
