Philip Lipetz Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 And look at the ISO 3200 and 6400 shots! They're done in vLogL which previously fell apart at high ISO. Orangenz, samuel.cabral and mechanicalEYE 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, maybe you would know this... The Speedbooster I was using was a rental and it didn't state anywhere on their site WHAT Speedbooster it was, only that it was Canon EF>M43. I looked online and saw that the Ultra and XL both have writing on top stating that they are the Ultra and XL versions. Mine didn't have...anything. It just said Canon EF to M43. I was assuming it was an early version or something so I said XL just to be safe. Before and after looked like a sizable crop but I wasn't completely sure.

Beautiful footage.....I'm curious if you corrected with a new LUT for the Gh5 and also, if you don't mind, a few words of what you thought of the speedbooster?

Thanks, yeah all new LUTs. I have always liked using a Speedbooster, I dunno. I could go back and forth, at times I want more in focus and really would want that stabilization. I would almost keep a Speedbooster on hand for low light and shallow DOF stuff. It definitely makes the camera more versatile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, that's the first version of the EF-m4/3 booster, which is .71x power. The Ultra is a new version of this, still .71x, but with slightly revised optics. The XL is .64x. And you're right, the Ultra and XL are both labeled as such with yellow writing. So you almost definitely had the first .71x version. Someone could probably drop those two screenshots into Photoshop and measure the crop factor and we could know for sure...

Which is confirmed by the too-slow stuttery framerate. Even handheld without any stabilization starts to look ok at 25%. 5 minutes ago, Neumann Films said: That's the one.

The Ultra is just a hair sharper, mostly at the edges. Which I doubt anyone is noticing at 1080p through Youtube. Was the moire on her backpack in the last shot in the SOOC footage? Or is that Youtube's fault? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't even notice TBH...a little animated mask with some blur should fix it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As someone who videos people who wear clothes quite a bit this is a massive pain in the arse. I find with the gx85 big patterns will moire at a distance, smaller ones closer, and closer still the weave of the clothes becomes problematic. was this 1080 slow mo? or 4K?

A: Just shoot in 4K/60 if dealing with intense patterns. B: If you absolutely need 180fps, animate some masks with Gaussian Blur or move the camera closer and shoot shallow DOF. C: Still a pre production model, no clue if it will be improved or not before release but...it's always on the table, I suppose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hee hee Sorry went back to vid and noticed it was labelled 1080. I can live with a bit of moire now and then in slowmo, have you found any moire in your 4k footage yet?

Then again, I haven't been looking for it for a few years now and this one slipped past my (clearly fading) eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AKED-M Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 What do you think with the GH5: Stick with the 12-35 2.8 or get the GH5 with the 12-60 2.8-4.0 instead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
