Blah Blah

Meant to say Full not PC.

I noticed a few things yesterday while trying all kinds of modes. I Gamma C and Gamma DR modes the camera wants to expose darker, I locked everything except the shutter speed and when engaging from Normal Gamma to C or DR the camera consistently wants to shoot with a faster shutter speed. The same thing happens while using SmartRange+ -mode, the shutter speed goes faster with everything else staying the same. My totally uneducated guess is that in these modes it exposes lower and lifts the exposure before going to codec. I shot in 0-255 I have been using RockyMountains Movie Converter. I transcoded the clips to ProRes422HQ and downscaled to 1080p. In DaVinci Resolve I need to adjust the Clip Attributes and manually select that the range is PC (0-255 or 0-1023) and not Video (16-235). The Auto option interprets the clips as Video.

I think there might be some highlights missing in the screenshot as I've had some confusion with the 0-255 showing wrong on some players. Your Back to the Future Screening video looked superb. What settings did you have on that and how did you convert and process it afterwards? Are you using 16-235? This was with Voigtländer lenses apparently.

I wouldn't put so many options, I think it would be better to reward early backers and then offer with normal price. Can't order now myself (no money) but I'm interested to see how it's going to work.

Looks really good. I wonder if this will ever be possible on the NX1. Does the 2.5k have the same crop as 4k?

It's the same in audio software, almost everyone wants to have legendary analog compressors, reverbs and eq. Though not many like to add hiss, if that's what is grain's audio equivalent. The nonlinearities make sounds feel more alive.

YEah makes sense, do you usually lock in all settings or let some range for for example ISO?

I don't know, I just took this while learning the camera, I have not shot much of anything yet. It was a 4k recording on Vivid and then I took a screenshot at 1920x1080p. Many people have written that SmartRange is for audio but to my eyes there's a clear difference in video.

First one is without SmarRange+ and second is with it on.

I just got an NX1. Do you use the SmartRange+ -setting for video? I tested it and it seems to raise shadows and lower the highlights, making shots more evenly lit.
