I'm not at all familiar with Sony, but I think it's shot in 8 bit. Hey Jon, always thought it was a A7RII I think video shows a nice example of muted color. It´s from Richard Gale himself. I remember when it was posted here the first time. So it´s an A7s then. Some people know how to treat that camera indeed:) jonpais 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nocturnes Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 tbh late to this but you're out of your mind for sure, you said every reason why you shouldn't swap cameras and still are considering that? nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PannySVHS Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 that´s a rough assumption about someones state of mind. u guys are familiar with eachother? he seems to be very sane to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonpais Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 @Nocturnes If you read the OP’s original post carefully, you’ll see that he says something to the effect that the number of advantages of the GH5 are too numerous to list (my own poetic account), or that they’re already well known (slightly less poetic), which is why he was considering changing systems. But there must be a lot of crazy filmmakers out there, because he’s far from the first who would prefer shooting with the GH5 rather than with a cinema camera.

Nocturnes Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 tbh eva-1, I don't know why people keep comparing prosumer bodies to a gh5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmmm.... strange. AC perhaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fritz Pierre Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 @Laurierperhaps you can clarify why you need a 1st AD on a fashion shoot and why a camera saves you from having to use a 1st? ....Does this mean you still use a 2nd and I'm curious about what they would do on a non narrative project!

About the muted colors, I agree with Slog-2 ( you can always saturate but you get compression artifacts quickly) , but I recently switched to Cine1-pro and it s better, On the original A7s there was a big gap in DR between slog and the other modes, but IMO on the a7r2 the gap is not so big, so I d rather have cleaner colors than a bit more DR. But to be honest cinematic images are not usually super saturated overall, and that what I m after . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
