You upscale to 4K in post or B. When you display the 1080p-ML-footage on a 4K TV (as most 4K TVs do a very good upscale of FullHD footage) ? No idea. I haven't attempted upscaling to 4K. I don't think it makes much sense. People used to upscale 2.8K Alexa to 4K before Arri enabled open gate, and it looks fine, but 1080p might be a stretch.

hyalinejim Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 5D3 ML 1080p is not even full 1080 resolution in terms of its resolving power. It has more resolution than the default Canon H264, but not as much as the C100 1080p, for example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were wondering if it might somehow be able to pan the area to get focus on other parts of the frame. (http://www.magiclantern.fm/forum/index.php?topic=19300.575) If anybody else wants to chime in on this development or where the experimental builds are in terms of preview on the higher res modes... Lovely footage!...too bad about the banding in the sky in the shot of the flag and the rolling shutter in the last shot of the bus...really no "perfect" camera out there...just what we feel we can or cannot live with.

hyalinejim Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 That would be an error in their post pipeline. There's no more banding in a ML DNG than there is in a RAW CR2. tweak 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took some quick shots today with a GH5 and 5D and hope to upload RAW DNGs and VLog TIFFs for comparison. For now here's a teaser: GH5: f5.6 - 1/800s - ISO400 - C4K - VLog - 10bit - ETTR - no noise reduction - no sharpening 5D: f5.6 - 1/400s - ISO100 - 3520 x 1320 - 12 bit lossless - ETTR - upscaled to 4096 x 1540 - no noise reduction - no sharpening But which is which? kaylee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hyalinejim Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 The detail is pretty good in the 5D3, huh? I wasn't expecting it to hold up so well against the GH5's Cinema4K res although I can't really see myself shooting in 2.67:1 on the 5D just to eke out the last few pixels of resolution. For me the biggest giveaway between the two is the difference in lens contrast and flaring, rather than the usual concerns with resolution, dynamic range or colour. (Although, the GH5 has more usable dynamic range - at the same exposure there seems to me to be 0.66 stops more info in the highlights and 0.66 in the shadows.) And of course the preview on the GH5 is real time! ade towell, Hanriverprod and SigurdW 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you compared them after highlight recovery and a LOG-curve applied to the raw? Just curious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyalinejim Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 Yes! The 5D stuff came through Adobe Camera Raw with the Cinelog-C DCP profile. I'll upload some stuff later so people can dig around for themselves in the files. SigurdW 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arikhan Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 @jpfilmz I took a look on my 4K TV - about 4m far away from TV (my usual distance when watching TV). The footage looks generally very nice...BUT: That wasn't that important when watching "Unmasked", because I simply forgot to pay much attention to IQ...A very good and engaging story, top notch audio and (mostly) a very pleasant lighting (beginning in the darkness is really amazing) . WOW...really nice work: Don't dream your life, live your dream... After watching for the third time, pixelpeepers and "uber-perfectionists" could find for sure some points to criticize...But hey, artistic and good conceptual work (like in your film) is nothing for know-it-alls...It's simply a great story, letting me forget the technical aspects...Just my two cents... EDIT: ...and a top main actor perfectly matching the type of character/guy you wanted to portray in your story... jpfilmz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would almost bet a professional Colorist could make the GH5 look just like the 5D mkIII or vice versa. Sharpness, well Raw probably wins there on the 5D a bit. So it comes down mostly to DR, low light ability. With a SP I think that takes care of the low light, DR well, I give a 5D 3 a clear 1 stop advantage eh, but no more. This makes a not so easy choice! Well for overall all ease of use, the GH5 kills it, for OOC ML a pain in the ass, but probably worth it if output is the ultimate goal here. And hyalinejim thanks for taking and showing us these comparisons. Good stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think one of the biggest misconceptions about 5D3 ML Raw is that it is difficult to shoot with, but in reality, once everything is set up, it is the simplest camera to operate. And even though there are a few extra post steps, color work is pretty simple and straightforward as well. kaylee, Mattias Burling, webrunner5 and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
