So sure not the best for 5 minutes of work, but.. I think the issue the milky blacks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can sort of live with just Log footage to be honest. I like to grade where it is different, not reality. I have to have a different look or why bother. Sure if your like JB on a show you want to realistic. You follow your color chart to a Tee. But I don't have to do that. "I think the issue the milky blacks". Yeah looking back at it it should be a bit higher no doubt. I think it is better than some crushed blacks I see people doing a lot. You have about 5 stops of DR in Rec.709 when you do that. Hey if we all did, or liked the same thing it would be boring as heck. We could all just use the Arri LuT in Aces and away we go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I kind of love that 🙂 Saves a little (very little) space when shooting certain things. -- More likely turning down/off the inputs but still recording silent audio tracks.

mercer 3,380 Report post Posted September 3, 2018 I messed around with the Daylight Models shot a little bit. I went for a little more of a flat, matte grade. I really liked the color nuances in the whites and neutral colors in the set up, so here's my poor attempt... EDIT: Nevermind... as soon as I loaded it, the contrast was way more punchy than it shows in my NLE... Ugh. I really need to invest in a new computer with a calibrated screen.

mercer 3,380 Report post Posted September 3, 2018 Here is an upload from my phone, the contrast seems more like the original but it’s still not right... Ugh sorry... Anyway, I enjoyed messing with the files, thanks JB and Blackmagic for providing them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I lost my Spyder in a move, so not sure what everyone else see's how mine looks either! That can be a real problem LoL.But yeah it looks like something you would do on my screen. I like it. 1 mercer reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Turboguard 169 Report post Posted September 3, 2018 Who here has ordered from B&H? Under my order it says ”Shipment 1”, just wondering if that means 1 item or if I’m to get first shipment of it. I did order right after announcement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IncriminatingPictures 3 Report post Posted September 4, 2018 Been lurking in this thread since the announcement. Thought I'd throw my hat in the ring and put some color on the footage. I wanted to color it with the least amount of lift to get it looking good, so I chose colored it within Premiere only using the available Lumetri Color panel. No sharpening or grain correction (adding or removing), no HSL Secondary, just color. My rationale for this being that I think the BPCC4k would fair rather well on shoots for a media company who's main delivery is YT/FB/.Com etc. This is the world I currently work in professionally, and the skill level of a video team in that world can vary greatly. I think it fairs pretty well without going with an extreme pro level of correction, with fairly minimal time spent. Which is exciting when I'm thinking about projects where the deadline is tight. 2 ErikSwan and mercer reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I love what you did with the balloon footage. I tried that but hated all of my attempts... so much blue, cool to see you pull the orange out of the sky.

Yeah I really like the BM color science in this PCC4k, but it does skew cool in the highlights and mids for sure. I'm pushing quite a bit of orange and red into them for that balloon shot, using the color wheels in Lumetri. 1 mercer reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe, but I found it to be the case in the other 2 shots I colored as well. All three had to have reds and oranges pushed into the highs and mids. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
