MattH Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 I'm pretty flabbergasted by peoples use of the word black in this thread. Either it is being used EXTREAMLY loosely or people are using some shit over contrasty monitors. In Andrews last screen shot for example there is nothing even approaching black. Take this black level calibration image: http://www.lagom.nl/lcd-test/black.php My monitor isn't anything special but I can just about see level 4 and easily level 5. Below this blend into the black background. level 5 to me is therefore very dark grey. If you look at Andrews last screen shot, and compare it to the test image there is nothing in that image that is lower than level 25 grey. I created an image to show this but cant figure out how to upload the basard. load them up into an image editor to check for yourself. I would be interested to hear what people are seeing when they look at the black level test image. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ebrahim Saadawi Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 What they mean is dark areas with 0 detail not black black as in the exact colour point on a WFM. Andrew's video has a raised black point, approaching grey. It's just the grade, I think this look occurs when you add an S curve to the image crushing the black to pure black, then raising them to 4- IRE consistently. Anyway the flat profile example he posted above looks almost like a Log gamma, and the feel of the image and colours is truly interesting. Glad they allowed that level of profile customization to get a flat unsharpened image. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 560a4aedcb80685284629074497fdc75 Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 Have you downloaded the ungraded files Matt? Do you mean the photos above or the video download link from your first review (I didn't realise that clip was ungraded)? I can't download the file from Wetransfer anymore. Maybe I'm missing something ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quobetah Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 1080p 120fps looks very sharp!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TW5Ov1AkFHc&list=UUeGY9Pqfd1puuCv8LpsPx3Q Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcTGFG Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Overall very very impressive, though I clearly noticed banding on the wall in the background of Kawsar Ahmeds YT-video. How about 10 Bit output, Samsung? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
