Hey guy's here is a new video that I just uploaded on youtube using @driftwood latest patch Quantum v2.. Lens Pany 20mm f1.7 Iso 320-1250 Profile Cinema (-2-1-0-2) No color corrections Custom W.B (3400K) to neutralize between halogen & fluorescent softbox lighting..
2560 x 1080 (1.33x) 2880 x 1080 (1.5x) 3840 x 1080 (2x)
Or, any smaller derivatives of the above that are stable. Having said that though, I'd rather stretch in post instead of losing vertical resolution. So if we can't get 1080 lines stable, then I think it might be a bit pointless. Very keen to see how far you can push this though Nick :-)
@Driftwood, it's probably best if I just tell you my lenses. This hurts my brain.
I have 1.33x, 1.5x and 2x adapters. I believe there is also a rare 1.75x .. I have never seen one.
It would be extra nice, if we had settings to make a 2x adapter record only the center 2.39 and center 2.65 throwing the wastage away at point of recording
@driftwood i'm still new to the anamorphic scene, but I gather from my research that the ratios 2.35:1 and 2.66:1 seem popular. I guess it's also part of the reason that 1.33x and 1.5x ana lenses cost the most, with dslrs shooting 16:9. 2x ana lenses cost the least, but work well with 4:3 (VGA-ish) vcams to obtain a 2.66:1 resultant ratio. All these are without cropping, of course (no wasted pixels).
I'd be grateful for the largest stable frame size for 4:3 aspect ratio, to unsquish to 2.66:1 after anamorphing
@LittleD sorry about that ISO 160, f1.4 - 3 on the 25 and 50mm primes; wide intv shot at 2.5 on the 14mm prime. Most shots lit with 3 312 LED lights in small or extra small photoflex softboxes.
New Quantum Beta 3 First test with my new Sandisk 64 GB SDCX. 24 P H Mode: Span correctly. The image quality is similar to V2 1050 i. Not tested yet 24 P Variable Mode (80%): It crashes at 9 seconds MJPEG (2560x 1080): First record: ok. MJPEG (VGA) Mode: I get a 848x480 size file (?).
Driftwood, am I correct with the Anamorphic hack we are seeing the destretched image (assuming you are using a lens adapter) on the rear screen? Or external monitor? Not having tried the wider hack, what if anything is output via HDMI to a 1080p monitor. One of my biggest issues when shooting with a Sankor 16D 2x is I can't really see the proper proportions of the frame until post.
