Jorge Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 Hello,I used Canon for 20 years and now I bought a Sony A7SII because I want to go into 4K but it is like learn how to walk again.I made a test during an assignment and the result is horrendous with extreme banding in 4k (you will need to enlarge the photo to see the stripes) that disappeared when I exported it to 1920x1080 in FCPX.I shot with 100 ISO without any profile with a Canon 24mm f1.4 + a Fotodiox adapter. The color is bad too, but one problem at time.Beside, I am using an old MacBook from 2010 that show me the advice "Editing projects with 4k (or larger) resolution is not recommended on this computer. You may experience performance issues". The banding in 4K is the issue?Any comment is welcome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think someone posted about this 2 or so weeks ago except that kind of pattern noise appeared at night. Might be a faulty unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Ma Posted November 24, 2015 Share Posted November 24, 2015 I usually see this when the color of the sky starts clipping to white. One of the color channels clips and the color becomes inaccurate and posterizes, until eventually all channels clip and it turns to white.Lower the exposure, and/or shoot in S Log2.

Jorge Posted November 24, 2015 Author Share Posted November 24, 2015 Thanks Michael and Gregor, I will try with s log2 with a Novoflex adapter, the Fotodiox has so many light issuesJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
