@spreeni. NTSC

Here are a few more shots strung together on vimeo, guys. Moon5, Smooth -2 everywhere, 5D2RGB, Kit 14-140 Lens.

@inqb8tr thank you, yes, it's the DiscoveryCam Portable Jib (aluminum) from the deals! Shutter priority, probably should have AE locked but it's b-roll...

@luxis I was using standard for driftwood made mention that "he suggest it" so in a way, it's not misleading. When the guy developing the settings suggest standard with them. There may be more truth than PV.

Just saying.

But to be honest, it really don't matter if you're gonna turn around and throw 5 layers of grading on it lol

@GravitateMediaGroup: Do you also prefer standard for a baked in look? I dont want to mess my head with all those profiles and their curves and only do minimal grading. Overgraded looks worse than less grading (somebody you recently had a longer discussion with). But there is a point: If Nick recommends it for his settings and uses that profile to adjust them, then maybe i should switch to standard, too. (Less DR than smooth and nostalgic though?!)

@GravitateMediaGroup so many postings, i guess i have missed Nick's suggestion. Standard has less DR then smooth. if you need more DR its better to use smooth. If you don't - standard is fine. Which film mode and what settings(different situations call for different ones) are "better" is a very long(infinite) talk and its going to get off topic. Flexibility is the key to get a good image with this little big camera. If anything send me a pm so we don't flood this one ;)

@luxis This is soooooo far from the truth. No picture style on earth can give a camera "more dynamic range". It may appear to by lifting shadow and what not. Anything you shoot with smooth that gives an appearance of more DR, I can emulate by grading. A picture style can not magically change hardware to have better performance over a different PS.

@kingmixer, thank you, and yes, 'raw from camera', no grade, just 5D2RGB.

@driftwood, going to be tempted to try drewnet, grrr...Moon 5 is continuing to look stunning in a variety of applications.

@GravitateMediaGroup Whatever makes you happy, enjoy your grading process!

GH2 Stock 12 GOP - versus - GH3 Stock 12 GOP IPB .mov mode - versus - GH2 Driftwood Cluster X 'DREWnet' Trial 6 setting;-

Lower QP values returned from Streameye shows that DREWnet resolves better quantisation and less artefacting & picture quality (plus better signal to noise ratio PSNR) than a GH3 on the same GOP (12 GOP).

DREWnet underlines the fact that the GH2 still resolves finer quantisation (using its 4x4 transform with 20+Mbps more datarate) on a death chart resolution test. The GH3 employs both coarser 8x8 transform and 4x4 transform (4x4 is used on GH3 only along hi contrast luma edges).

What are the benefits of installig a ALL INTRA patch instead of a GOP type of patch? Better work flow because in not that much compressed? But affects image quality, grading, detail???

Anyone please??? THANKS!

@danielvy Motion, workflow, though larger in size its less computational than a long gop for the NLE.
