plucas Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 It looks like the yellow cast remains even with a custom white balance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Django Posted March 12, 2021 Author Share Posted March 12, 2021 @plucas : I just tried that exact test and can confirm similar findings: EOS Original log matrix has the yellow cast while Neutral remains more faithful. Doesn't really matter what WB settings you are in. plucas 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plucas Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Somehow the warm cast on my old C100i looked pleasing whereas the yellow cast on the R6 looks like a problem to solve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing I did was strip out the audio and exported as ProRes HQ. Oh, it's also in a 2:1 aspect ratio but it was shot in 4K DCI. https://www.dropbox.com/s/y9m9mg6g10ddkfq/R5_4KHQ_4KLQ.mov?dl=0 ade towell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ade towell Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 Having looked at the image of the R5 and R6 they are both very nice, not much to choose from them although the rolling shutter on the R6 is a little off putting. And the fall back to HD not so good when or if things overheat in 4k. DR is not amazing on either but there is talk of c-log3 coming to the R5 which I think would push me that way unless the R6 gets it to - I wonder what the chances are, may just hold off a decision until then - anyone have any info when the firmware is expected, it was meant to have happened by now? Got to say though I do still slightly prefer the image coming from the Fuji xt3/xt4 - can't put my finger on why but I think it is truly remarkable the quality you can get from such a cheap camera Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Django Posted March 16, 2021 Author Share Posted March 16, 2021 @ntblowz Nice! Interesting to see the photographer was on a R6. Looks like although its a Canon sponsored event, you were using your own gear? Was the R5/C70 footage shot in standard, log or RAW? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Django Posted March 17, 2021 Author Share Posted March 17, 2021 The yellow cast thing only becomes a problem in mixed lighting, if you're using AWB you simply need to hit info inside the settings and select white priority as warm is the default. In custom or kelvin, switch to Clog and select Neutral color matrix. You can also further adjust WB tint in the RGB matrix. Concerning 4K rolling shutter on R6 you can half the RS from 30ms to 15ms just by shooting in 4K60p (and convert to 24/25p in post) and down to 20ms in 4K crop mode.

plucas Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 So AWB-White in EOS Standard and Neutral matrix for CLog or does AWB-White also work for CLog? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Django Posted March 17, 2021 Author Share Posted March 17, 2021 AWB-White works in Clog. I'm just saying if you have to use kelvin or custom you may wanna help skin tones by going Neutral in Clog. plucas 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My main concern with shooting 50p to get better RS is that I would also higher the shutter speed to 1/100 to get nice motion which means I would lose a lot of the low light benefits of the camera. Got to admit I haven't looked at 4k 50p is it the same quality as 4k 25p on the R6? Also what's the quality of the 4k crop mode, the oversampled crop is another enticing aspect with the R5 As far as the yellow cast are you saying so long as I shoot manual white balance with clog in neutral then everything is ok? That would be fine for me, never trusted AWB before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ade towell Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Thinking about it will 50p shot at 1/50 and converted to 25p have the same motion characteristics as 25p shot at 1/50? Have only ever thought of using 1/100 in terms of getting it looking right when used as slow motion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Django Posted March 17, 2021 Author Share Posted March 17, 2021 Good question, I also usually just follow 180 degree rule blindly and shoot 50p at 1/100 with slow-mo in mind. Maybe 50p at 1/50 makes more sense for non slomo on a 25p timeline..? 24 minutes ago, ade towell said: Got to admit I haven't looked at 4k 50p is it the same quality as 4k 25p on the R6?

That would be fine for me, never trusted AWB before Yes 4K50p is the same 5.5K oversampled quality 4K. 4K crop mode is a slightly upsampled sub-4K region (3414 x 1920 pixels). You'd have to pixel peep to notice the difference. I guess its worth noting 4K60p crop mode on the R6 gets you the lowest RS: 10.2ms. Manual WB with Clog in Neutral seems pretty good, I haven't done extensive tungsten tests though. ade towell 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Video Hummus Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Does Canon still lock the white balance at time of recording in AWB mode? The one thing I really hate is changing the kelvin manually on R5. Too many button presses. On Panasonic cameras there was a dedicated WB button it was as simple as 1 button press and a wheel scroll. Same with setting custom white balance...holy mother of god. Everybody complained about the EOS R touch bar on the back but I wish they would have put a hybrid of that and the new controls on 1DXM3 instead of scraping it. I find myself rarely using the joystick anymore with such good tracking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gt3rs Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 25p at 1/50 or 50p 1/50 with dropping frame in nle should look the same, assuming ALL-I and that the camera 50p vs 25p quality is the same. For the R6 should be exactly the same as also the bandwidth is basically almost the double in ALL-I. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Django Posted March 17, 2021 Author Share Posted March 17, 2021 No ALL-I on the R6 though 😞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
