    Thanks for the awesome video!! I currently am running a Mavic Air 2. I was thinking about selling off to upgrade to a 2s, Mavic 3, or mini pro 3. The lack of d-log is super concerning for me in comparison to the former two options. I'll be backpacking (out of an 85L pack) for year abroad though, so the 249g restriction lift regardless of location would save much headache that I've gone through in the past. I also am of course a fan of the vertical gimbal (something I am hoping that the Mavic Air 3 will include). I often fly in the mountains (Swiss Alps) or between islands over water in SE Asia. I've never used something so light so the wind would certainly make me nervous, not only for the sake of durability, but also for the integrity of the shot as I've seen mixed results in terms of smooth footage on windy days with the mini 3. Would you mind adding your input on what route I should go? Thanks!!

    • @InteractiveDNA
      @InteractiveDNA 2 роки тому

      It is far from being a pro! Remember that this 10bit is based on a 256 colors divided by 1024 and codec at 10bit. That is what I show on this video, it only show the same dynamic range from both colors/gray values divided. A camera with true 10bit you will not see the low frequency. Basically is a 8bit with a container of 10bit. This is very common in the video world. Also the color space looks like ais 4:2:0 compression. Most important about any footage is how well exposure it is and how much definition the lens can let light pass true. It is easy to use a filter to convert 8bit data to even 64bit.

  • @MartinFransson
    @MartinFransson 11 місяців тому

    Feel free to tell me I´m wrong (I would like to be) but I heard that there is actually not more dynamic range in the 10 bit dcinelike, just more colour depth. So you can avoid banding, but not really recover more of blown out highlights etc.
    Considering the compressed histogram I would like to think there is more room for editing but I also found that there is a LOT of noise in the darker areas with dcinelike.

  • @Drone-Pilot
    @Drone-Pilot 2 роки тому

    I had a debate with a guy over 10 bit and 8 bit and he was saying all kinds of things as to why you don’t need anymore than 8bit, I just said 10 bit allows you to get more info in the lowlights/shadows and bring them up and even though we can’t see it with our eyes natively you certainly can see it in post when you bring up those dark shadows.

    • @DroneFilmGuide
      @DroneFilmGuide  2 роки тому +1

      For sure. You don't need raw photography either but it is amazing compared with editing jpegs so if you're at that stage you definitely want it. Same for 10-bit video. Gets us a little bit closer to raw video which, again, for those who are so inclined, certainly brings benefits.

  • @KingofDreamzzz
    @KingofDreamzzz 2 роки тому

    Interesting comparison, thank you! But comparing shadows we measure rather noise level and dynamic range. Low color depth in this case you can see only in histogram as sharp peaks. In this test I prefer Air 2S, it gives more details and less noise even comparing with Mavic 3, banding there is just noise reduction, which is not a problem for the case. I think, filming low contrast scene (e.g. in fog, or gray sky) with following strong increase of contrast will give more representative results of color depth level.

  • @InteractiveDNA
    @InteractiveDNA 2 роки тому +2

    What DJI did was simple, they divided the 8bit captured of 256 levels by 0.25 to get the fake 10bit of 1024 levels and applied a filter to blend the 0.25 together. The Noise you see is not the 10bit and yeas poor sensor capabilities for low light capture. Remember that more bits means nothing if the capture is poor, you are just pushing more pixels around from the 256/1024. True 10bit you will get better controls of the colors and dynamic if the data is there when the camera captured. DJI could make this fake 10bit even better if the apply a anti-blocking filter between the 0.25 slices. 🍕

    Cool vid! The most important advantage of 10bit over 8bit is that 1% situation where you find yourself shooting in a high contrast environment; other than that the difference is not really noticeable when shooting in a uniform light and properly exposed. But still, for that 1% I would def use 10bit over 8bit anytime! :). Btw , your tests are not really showing the advantage of 10bit over 8bit because there is not much difference in light nor showing harsh lights thus making them look almost similar in a uniform controlled environment. One of the clearest and best advantage of 10bit is shooting directly in the sun at sunset/sunrise, there you would see a huge difference. Cool comparison tho' ! Cheers!

    Why are you expecting a higher bit depth to give you greater dynamic range? It just gives you a broader spectrum of colour information. This helps with stuff like banding etc, and obviously gives you a greater variance and flexibility in your colour whilst grading, but has zero to do with how much detail is recoverable in shadows/highlights etc.

      Simple answer! The Aperture of the Mini 3 is bigger, better in low light. And it can film up 60%. And small factor. But everything else even the 10bit is not a big deal cause the 10bit is based on a low quality data. Higher bits means nothing if the camera can not see well or provide details.

    This artefacts have nothing to do with 8 or 10bit :D

    It should have minimum 422 compression at 10bit - anything else is just a deception package!

    Lol, f*CK 8 bit in low light specially small sensors, can't really do decent exposure adjustment without destroying the footage.
