Hoezay Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Hi there, this is my first post on EOSHD but I've been a long time lurker. I bought the NX1 as my main go to camera and so far I've loved it. I've recently began pre-production on a film I plan on shooting later this year and I'm by no means a pro of any kind but I have some thoughts I'd like to share, mainly regarding the picture profile options that have come with a recent firmware update. The only profile I've used so far has been Gamma DR.First off saturation, I find that if the saturation is lower than -4 the information just isn't there for color grading sake. Balancing out the tone of the image tends to be much harder when really lowering saturation, for me it seems to cause problems from highlights to shadows and this is only after I shot the test that I realized this. I don't think this camera is the end all of LOG in any way and its just there simply as an option for your own simple profile but I have my doubts about the extreme options available, that being said I am very grateful it even is an option.Sharpness I feel is variable but I wouldn't go any higher than -7 for 4k but 1080p seems to be something completely different. I do not think that the profiles transfer effectively from 4k to 1080p, I do think that there must be a separate set of of picture options between all resolutions, I wonder if this has just been me that's been struggling with this but it seems that keeping a -10 sharpness for 1080p just looks like garbage. Anyways I hope to become more active since this is one of my favorite websites, thank you. Mat Mayer and mercer 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
