Lintelfilm Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Hmm it's not there for me. Perhaps it didn't install properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lintelfilm Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Crap I just looked and it's a Premiere-only update. No FCPX as yet ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidzrevil Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Lol here's the reply from Canon. Guess we gotta come up with our own solution or collectively send in our XC10 for repair ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mercer Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Also, what shutter speed are people using? I've been using 1/48, but since they added the 1/50th and the rolling shutter fix, I wonder if that was supposed to quietly fix the problem. Because, to me it looks like a rolling shutter issue.

hyalinejim Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I don't think it's RS because this image shows RS and ghosting together: Also, if it was RS why would it change with ISO? It's surely noise reduction. @kidzrevil Your Canon rep is very responsive. Mine is much more terse: thanks for the video, send it in. STOP THE PRESS, this just in: Quote Thank you for contacting us in regards to a ghosting issue you are experiencing with your XC10. We have passed your request onto our European Product Specialists for further investigation and they will analyse the video files you provided to see if there is an issue. We will contact you again shortly after the video has been analysed. In the meantime, if you have any further updates to your request, please don’t hesitate to contact us by replying to this email. kidzrevil 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidzrevil Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 This camera is a real challenge but I already feel like its making me more knowledgeable and more creative about video. When it works it works REALLY well ! Gonna have to study up on gain vs ISO. Hopefully gain could help us fine tune the noise in the video a bit better. Im gonna use the EBU chart as a reference. @mercer it could very well be a shutter speed thing so I will look into that today. My diffusion filtration has been helping. I think a big part of what the NR is looking for is high contrast edges. The drop in contrast from the filtration seems to "trick" the camera Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a close XC10/15 discussion group on Facebook. It was mentioned there, and I think Andrew Reid's article that mentioned the new XC15 here on eoshd also mentioned the XC10 would also get the same custom profiles of the XC15 in a coming update. Read Andrew Reid's notification on this site and see if he doesn't mention it. The update is not available yet, but I'm pretty sure it's coming.

Lintelfilm Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Hey at least if any of us are stuck for ideas at Halloween we can just film stuff with our XC10 and tell people it's a ghost-finding device ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shield3 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I just picked up an XC-10 on ebay used for $1200. The guy was very nice and threw in two 256GB CFast 2.0 cards and two CFAST readers. Pretty much the best deal I've scored on ebay for years. My 1dx pukes yesterday but I have this little camera to keep me happy for a couple of weeks. I called the guy after the sale and asked why he was so generous - he said he bought a C500 and just didn't need the cards and figured I could use them. There is hope for civilization yet folks. Digging the XC-10 so far. Downloading the Canon XF software was a waste though unless you want to read EXIF info. Camera is plenty sharp when you grade the C-LOG footage and looks really Super 16'ish. It is what it is - a good light deep DOF camera with IS, ND, 4k, no time limit and C-Log. It is not a replacement for the larger sensor Cx00 cameras, but should match nicely in post. Loving it! hyalinejim and kidzrevil 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been looking for a good deal on a XC10 in ebay the last weeks and I never see any even close to 1,200, did you make an offer for one of the cameras published around 1,700?
