hyalinejim Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Ghost free! Big thanks for that @tomsemiterrific. Looks clean as a whistle on my end, no motion ghosting. If I did what you did with my cam, it'd look like we were all on mushrooms. .. @mercer or any other XC10 owner, can you check if your results are clean @20000 ISO like tom, or sick like kidzrevil and me? tomsemiterrific 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidzrevil Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Thats all we need is a sample. Dont get me wrong guys im only bringing this up to get a firmware update for the camera if need be 1 hour ago, tomsemiterrific said: Kidzrevil--here's the video you wanted to see. Where do you find the kind of Ghosting shown in your original example. Shot in 4k, HDR CP, with sharpening.... Is this the xc15 ???? Theres absolutely no ghosting @hyalinejim I think we need to send our bodies in dude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theres absolutely no ghosting @hyalinejim I think we need to send our bodies in dude Yes, this is the XC15. I sold my XC10 to purchase it---I never noticed any issue with the XC10, but perhaps I'm not as skilled or attentive to details as i should be. I do a lot of education videos and the new XLR attachment and audio processing offered on the XC15 is excellent--had to have it, and now the XC15 is complete, at least for my primary purposes. Note, that a firmware update is coming for the XC10 that will give it the Cps and color space of the XC15--and (I hope) the waveform as well. It is very, very helpful, especially shooting in Log. Could it not be possible that Canon knows about this issue, and has silently addressed the issue in the XC15, and plan to do the same for the XC10 in its next firmware update??? hyalinejim, Kisaha and kidzrevil 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyalinejim Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 I sure hope so Tom. That's very exciting about a firmware update. Even though I don't know anything about this CPS colour space. Must google it. Y'know I'm pretty sure you would have spotted ghosting on your XC10 if it had it. All the same, I'd still like to see a similar clip from an XC10 without ghosting. @kidzrevil It's looking more likely that we should send ours in. We know now that not all XC15s have ghosting. But it could still be the case that all XC10s do, and the difference is due to software processing. We still need to see a high ISO XC10 clip without ghosting. I tried one in a shop yesterday and it was like Ghostie McGhosterton. Who else owns an XC10 round here? kidzrevil 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried one in a shop yesterday and it was like Ghostie McGhosterton. Who else owns an XC10 round here? The new custom profiles include profiles that were previously only in the C300 Mk II...they are nice, and bring different color space content with them. I still tend to shoot in C-log, just because it gets such great results. But I have to admit C-log 2 has more dynamic range. C-log 3 has actually less than C-log 2, but more than C-log. It exists because it gives you close to as much dynamic range as C-log 2, but is easier to grade, similar to C-log. I really like the image. The HDR Custom profile is excellent as well.

BenEricson Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 The XC15 with the audio console looks killer. It looks like the ghosting issue has been solved as well? May have to pull the trigger on purchase if so. Is C-LOG 2/3 available on the XC10 as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, that is fine with me, because it does give you 12 stops of dynamic range--and is super easy to grade and looks beautiful. I have a C300 Mk 2, and use C-log on both and match them extremely well, colors are exact, and the only difference is DOF---which is really not a problem regarding image quality. The XLR audio is excellent on the XC15....very clean, with a low noise floor---IMO, worth every penny for the kind of shooting I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpfilmz Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I just ran a series of test with the XC10. First set I was getting slight ghosting. Not as clean as tomsemiterrific's footage. I then went into the camera and turned off everything...all image stabilization features, all auto focus features, including on the body of the camera, flicker reduction off, shockless WB off, rolling shutter reduction off and with those setting I was able to greatly eliminate ghosting affects in my footage. EDIT I also tried with with rolling shutter reduction turned back on and had similar results. Could someone else try with these setting off and see if that helps. I'll try to post some of my footage. hyalinejim and Lintelfilm 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just about to do the same thing. My guess was AF or IS or rolling shutter reduction. I'll do some tests of my own and post when I can. FWIW out of focus objects seem to show more ghosting.

Hmm maybe it's how the ghosting we are seeing is some type of delay the autofocus uses to lock on to areas of high contrast. Thats how contrast AF works right ? maybe thats why the ghosting is more prevalent on high contrast objects... I used a heavy grade diffusion filter the other day and there was less ghosting...I think you are onto something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lintelfilm Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I just turned everything off and the ghosting is still there. It's much less regular and visible - I think when IS is off because all the motion blur hides it more, but it's definitely still there. @Jpfilmz can you try again to make sure? hyalinejim 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also turned AF off and ghosting is still there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you know there is a firmware update in the pipeline - it would be normal commercial practice for Canon to abandon the XC10 and push sales of the XC15.

Thanks @jpfilmz for your test footage. 3 hours ago, Lintelfilm said: I just turned everything off and the ghosting is still there. I can confirm that ghosting exists at ISO500 with everything switched off. Here's a CLog frame grab with contrast expanded: Look at the curved handle on the RHS - there's a ghost image. This is affecting motion cadence at all ISOs. @jpfilmz @Lintelfilm @mercer @HugoS316 and all other XC10 owners: It's time to contact Canon! Send them your ghosting footage and/or links to the threads here and ask them to resolve the issue. Lintelfilm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
