DPStewart Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 I don't exactly understand why anyone would even want to use a hack that doesn't increase the bit rate and image quality. AaronL, SMGJohn and kidzrevil 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AaronL Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 agreed DPStewart, for me personally, I dont care about any of the additions, bit rate is the only thing I care about so far as I have an NX1. I am still yet to try it, as my camera is currently travelling with my brother. but looking forward to giving it a go when I get it back! keep up the good work all involved, ..and I think most following the progress of the hack know where credit is due where the credit is due.

Yup, I literally only installed the hack for the bit rate stuff. All that other stuff with the focusing and blah blah was useless to me. Like you I rather only have stuff that improves the image quality. 180 mbps has spoiled me. Cant tell you the last time I seen macroblocking !

I appreciate removal of recording limits on NX500, tossed few € your way, enjoy your 16-50S you've definitely earned it. Thank you. And the waiting game for a good deal on NX500 continues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lebigmac Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 Agreed, the bitrate is by far the most important improvement. From my point of view, there is only one thing that I would really happy to get, that is an improvement in low light performance. tokhee, Pavel Mašek, kidzrevil and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a buyer out there and the market will tell you how much it's worth. Good luck with whatever you choose to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidzrevil Posted May 27, 2016 Author Share Posted May 27, 2016 I kinda am not gonna lie. Doesnt take me more than 3-5 days to move equipment ! Good thing im not stuck with a shitty body for video like the time I nearly bought a canon 6d. Totally dodged the bullet with that one lol. Theres no full frame or apsc touching it at 1600 and below thats touching the nx1 in quality so I guess the body im waiting for aint even made yet. Im gonna get a "workhorse" camera for general use, anything to avoid wear and tear on the nx1. Canon xc10 and sony rx10 ii seems interesting @mercer @vaga yeah ! What about it ? Any particular thing that caught your eye ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kidzrevil Posted May 27, 2016 Author Share Posted May 27, 2016 @mercer it looks good as something to just pick up and go. Im hoping I can get one on ebay cause its probably not worth paying full price. Im eyeing a rx10 ii for $400. If I get that I'd throw the slr magic anamorphot on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kidzrevil Posted May 27, 2016 Author Share Posted May 27, 2016 new footage of the nx1 at 180 mbps. I wanted to see if I could get the camera to display macroblocking with high motion scenes but fortunately I was unsuccessful. I graded it to taste of course and used the super 16mm grain to cause it cuts back on sharpness. I can't see myself shooting without the bitrate hack to be honest it's amazing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That and everytime you pull a big camera in the public in such a small city as I live, people instantly look weird at you. What is your secret?

Im kinda shy myself sometimes but if you need the shot then take it ! Confidence plays a big role in our business, it will help you interact better with your subjects. Always act like your SUPPOSED to be holding the camera and everyone will start to act accordingly, you wont stick out as much I guess hahahah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You occasionally get children coming up to you though who wants to be on television, after a while its gets VERY annoying but its not like you can yell at them in the public. mercer, Liam, kinoseed and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
