Does anybody here has personal / custom picture profiles for Sony Camera ?

ProRes vs Cineform vs MTS + Profiles

neks — Thu, 28 Mar 2013 14:56:08 +0000

First of all hello to everybody and thanks to all who made this little camera shine!

Just wanted to share some test I did today about noise, conversion and profiles. I went outside and shoot few takes all with the same camera settings(iso 160, 1/100, F5.6), using Driftwood's amazing new Cluster X S2 - 1GOP Intra Moon T5 settings. Also, I did a few tests with profiles few days ago and what I could find is that Vibrant has the least amount of noise, while Smooth(that I was using all the time) was the worst, for me at least.

So here you can see 3 profiles used, Vibrant, Smooth, Cinema, all to -2, wanted to test them once again and make sure, plus convert the files to ProRes and CineForm and see the difference. Scaled at 400%

As ProRes looked more/less the same as the raw MTS file, I decided to push them even further and scale them to 800% and compare only CineForm and raw MTS files.

I know I'll be always converting files to CineForm before edit from now on, and never again use Smooth profile. Also because a weird amount of blockiness in 25p mode I'll probably just go with 24p when ever I can. Need to test 25p a bit more with this new Moon settings though.

Cheers!

Hacking GH2 film modes

lolodigital — Wed, 18 Apr 2012 02:38:31 +0000

Apologies if topic already discussed... As a new challenge for pool development, is it possible to hack film modes to get own ultra-flat "log V (vitally)" Picture profile, and with hight bit-rate combination to get real cinematic color scheme, and get a real big improvement of dynamic range (lets dream about 12 stops)?

Color Profiles/Film Modes

thepalalias — Tue, 10 Apr 2012 23:17:34 +0000

I noticed that there was a lot of discussion about film modes/color profiles in the Sedna thread, so I thought it might be time to give them one of their own.

In the wake of recent testing, the standard profile has been held in much higher regard than before. Vibrant has also received a boost in popularity. Nostalgic continues to be popular as does Smooth (the two profiles previously viewed as having the widest dynamic range). Most of the other ones are not viewed as kindly.

This thread is meant to focus the discussion a little more.

New free picture profiles for the Sony FS100

I´m not sure if this should go under General or Hacks...

anyway, here are some picture Profiles I made for the Sony FS100. This is work in progress. I get a lot of input from fellow filmmakers and I learn something on every shooting with the FS100, so I try to improve those settings, to get the best out of that great little camera.

Every input, that helps to make the profiles better is appreciated.

Have fun,

Frank
