Kristoferman Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 I'm starting to heavily consider the kinemini Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sam Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 I saw those tests a while back, and if I remember correctly, at least on one test, the 1dc's white balance was set incorrectly and I think they added grain?? I think you can download as well to avoid web compression. Will have to re-watch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrgl Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 They graded to match the cameras and managed to make even the 1DC look like shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Andrew Reid Posted February 4, 2015 Administrators Share Posted February 4, 2015 This isn't a camera shootout.It's a grading shootout.It's very difficult to compare absolute performance with such a huge variable in the mix.

Administrators Andrew Reid Posted February 4, 2015 Administrators Share Posted February 4, 2015 Also the 1D C has been shot in LOG at ISO 200 by the looks of the banding, and not handled right in post - possibly edited natively from the MJPEG in Premiere which introduces even more banding.

Very Poor as well and I agree with Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
