  • Many thanks for feedback, @Zaven13! :-)

    However, the bitrates were lower and ranged from 40 to 60mb.

    I think whether to be the appropriate bit rate in order to use HBR and FSH safely. However...BTW, what kind of result is it in C1.5c? Depending on conditions, C1.5c may become the higher bit rate.

    And it is also checked by the difference in the film mode setting that the bit rate changes considerably.

  • @bkmcwd. I tested C1.5b with FSH and it failed with write error and freezing with SDXC 95mbs card using Panny 14-140 lens. The bitrates ranged from 50 to 80mb. Then I tested with C1.5d and I had no errors. It also worked with Sandisk 32gb 30mbs card. However, the bitrates were lower and ranged from 40 to 60mb.

  • Since it seems that there is some confused people, I explain the newest settings anew.

    In many high-bitrate settings already released in this forum, including mine, there was the issue which a camera freezes at the moment of focusing. Although this mainly happens in HBR or 1080i, there are also some settings which freeze in 24p or 720p. It seems that especially this issue will occur easily if a Panny lens is used. As for this, it is considered to be the cause that a Panny lens consumes the resource of a camera considerably.

    Since this problem is dependent also on the lens used, there are some persons not noticing. I was also hardly troubled.

    However, since the settings which makes a camera freeze during recording could not be used as the tool at any times, I aimed at solving this.

    As the result, the latest settings in which I corrected this issue are these:

    In these settings, as long as 95MB/s SDXC card is used, this freezing issue is canceled nearly perfectly. *Since there is no time, I am not doing verification in case other cards are used.

    I renewed many settings in a hurry for such a reason recently.

    If these are also still unstable, I will further adjust.

    Many thanks for your feedbacks! :-)

    bkmcwd Valkyrie 444 TYPE-ZERO2 Candidate1.5d 'Apocalypse Now' with cbrandin 'Pure Original 444 Matrix' and 'Modified 444 Matrix' - seta.ini - Released 04/11/2012

    This is also the version which adjusted safer from C1.5b in HBR and 720p as same as C1.5c.

    I think that the freezing issue at the moment of the focus was solved nearly perfectly also in Panny lens use.

    Honestly, I am not sure which of C1.5c and C1.5d is better. However, IMHO, the GOP table of C1.5d is better?

    Please compare these! And I am very glad if I can get feedbacks.

    *If this is also still unstable, I will further adjust.

  • @flaschus Thanks mate! :-)

    I am continuing improving my main settings now. There were my settings which will be frozen like other persons' settings if usage environment changes. In particular, there was an issue frozen with the Panny lens at the moment of focusing. Since I found the method of canceling this, I am just going to repair my settings now.

    About VF4, even if you do not use HBR, the setting frozen in HBR cannot be exhibited. Before telling image quality, I think that being used feeling easy as a tool is top priority.

    In VF4_V2, not only HBR but 720p must further be stable. Please try!

  • @bkmcwd...whats up! hows it goin?

    To be honset,,, I have never used HBR....

    however; I use 24p and it is stunning. the 720p60 mode looks great too.. well,

    i am out to test with this new v2!

    many thanks!

    btw,,, has anyone used the new hi speed transcend cards?? I just saw them and was curious....

    This is the very experimental setting inspired from @flaschus.

    In this version, the freezing issue at the moment of the focus in HBR or 720p is canceled nearly perfectly. IMO, this is more stable than previous VF4.

    Please try this. And I am very glad if I can get feedbacks.

  • @Shon

    Please refer to this link about the settings of the experimental stage. http://personal-view.com/talks/discussion/comment/57881#Comment_57881

    About Valkyrie 444 TYPE-ZERO2, C1.5c is the newest now. :-)

  • @bkmcwd What you have the latest patch? Something I'm confused. 1.6 was later than 1.5b.

  • @flaschus When I did quick verification, it became clear that artifacts probably did not appear. Therefore, I make all matrices as this and raise the reliability of VF4. :-)

  • @flaschus

    can it be improved?

    Of course, I can do it. BTW, are there any artifacts in HBR or 720p? Supposing it is, it is necessary to also optimize the matrix. :-)

  • @bkmcwd...

    I love Valkyrie_Flat 4.... NO hangups,,, grades very nice...

    can it be improved?

  • @matt_gh2 OK! If you are pleased with it, I will improve it. Thanks :-)

  • @bkmcwd I haven't try Flat 4 yet, but will try to do a few tests this weekend, and will report back results to you. Thanks

  • @Mirrorkisser Many thanks for using C1.5b and C1.5c. :-)

  • yes! thank you very much for the explanation. i will try c.1.5 c immediately as 1.5b was my favourite before :)

  • @Mirrorkisser

    what is the improved candidated over c1.5b?

    I am sorry that my English is unclear. In HBR of C1.5b, there was a problem which the camera freezes the moment of focusing. Since this issue is influenced by your use lens and conditions, it may hardly become a problem practically. However, it is C1.5c that I canceled this issue just in case. Again, improving points are reliability and stability. Did it get across to you? :-)

  • @bkmcwd: what is the improved candidated over c1.5b? i thought that was the latest valkyrie? thx

  • @kankala Many thanks for your report! Yes, in ordinary usage, C1.5b may also be satisfactory. However, I improved just in case. Please also try it. :-)

  • @bkmcwd I used C1.5b for the last week. It looks good and I didn't have problems in camera - using Sandisk 32GB 45MB/s card. I only have some problems playing in the PC - the video slows down every 2seconds - but that is probably a player/codec problem. I didn't have time yet to transcode to something like prores and test, I did rewrap but it plays the same.

  • @Mirrorkisser Thank YOU mate! I am in the strengthening weeks of the improvement in reliability now. I aim at the settings which never freeze or stop with 95MB/s SDXC. :-)

  • @bkmcwd thx for all your awesome work!

  • UPDATE(2012/11/06)This candidate of GOP3ZILLA3 is upgraded as official settings as a result of verification.


    @ GOP3ZILLA lovers :-)

    "GOP3ZILLA_3_Candidate 4"

    I release the 4th candidate for "GOP3ZILLA_3" setting.

    In this version, the freezing issue at the moment of the focus in HBR or 720p is canceled nearly perfectly. I think that this is further stable from C3.

    Please try it! And many thanks for your feedbacks!

    If this is also still unstable, I will further adjust.

    *Of course, already combined with excellent audio tune @thepalalias's "Pasadena_Pulse_Audio_V2_Beta2"

    *About 24p, it is completely the same as former candidates.


    NOTE:

    *Although bit rate setups are quite high, the bit rate which actually appears are lower than these. Since the actual bit rate changes by the object to shoot, please confirm by yourself.(Max bitrate : about 100M in 24p, about 75M in HBR.)

    *This is the simple setting which harnessed the feature of the stock as it was. I recognize this to be the normal evolution version of the stock.

    *24H and 24L are high quality 3GOP setting with mega size I-frames.

    *24p80%(30p) is available in 24H & 24L both.

    *60i, 50i, HBR30p and HBR25p are also high quality and stable 3GOP settings.

    *720/50p and 720/60p are 6GOP and 9GOP. It has tuned up so that the bit rate at the time of motion may go up rather than the time of statics.

    *I especially recommend you use with SanDisk 95MB/s 64GB SDXC card. However, I have got the report that the card of other classes 10 can also be used satisfactorily.

    *In camera playback is available in all rec mode, at least available after reboot the camera.(Not tested full yet, but probably)

    *EX Tele, iA mode work.(Not tested full yet, but probably)

    *Spanning in 24H, 24L with SanDisk 95MB/s 64GB SDXC Card. In other rec mode, need test.

    *Spanning in other cards needs to be tested.

    Please DL original raw data to look the REAL IQ. *These videos are only samples for image quality.

  • @matt_gh2 Many thanks for trying VF4! :-)

    Is Valkyrie Flat4 designed to be similar to this? What would you say are the similarities and differences between Apoc Now Boom and Valkyrie Flat4?

    Honestly, since I myself have not verified fully yet about the image quality of Flat4, I am not sure. However, since @flaschus has already used it, I think that he is detailed about it. My having tried hard about Flat4 is making it stabilized, adopting this matrix in all rec modes. It is designed as 3GOP structure in 24p, HBR and 1080i so that the big I frame which naturally cannot be used with the Intra structure can be used.

    When I imagine from the result of 444 pure matrices of Chris, at Flat4 matrix as it is, artifacts may appear in HBR or 720p. Of course, this will be influenced by the lens used. Supposing I improve VF4, there are two steps. As the first step, if necessary, it is the work which optimizes a matrix to modes other than 24p. As the second, it is the work which stabilizes it infinite. I think that instability remains a little in HBR since VF4 present is somewhat old setting. Although I think that I will improve at least this instability but, I think that I will cleave my resource to other work if unnecessary.

    If you take to VF4, I will improve, but how are you?

  • @bkmcwd Will try out the Valkyrie Flat4 very soon. I'm currently using Apocalypse Boom and like it a lot. Is Valkyrie Flat4 designed to be similar to this? What would you say are the similarities and differences between Apoc Now Boom and Valkyrie Flat4? Thank you.
