    Jesus Christ that zoom is amazing 6:08 I dropped my phone on my face lol
    Also I love your videos never change keep your format. I’m tiered of the copy and paste glossy look of other UA-camrs yours feels real and organic.
    Keep it up yo.

      @ my literal thought process went “I can use this shot …how can I use this shot… I need to rent this lens… I wonder how it would look on my Ronin 4D”. That shot literally made me feel like I was watching “The Substance” (side note: if you haven’t watch please watch it).
      But seriously keep doing you man, I’m always interested in what you have to say.
      I appreciate you.

    Thanks for the video, Blaine. It's always our lenses and their quality results before the changing bodies that we need to prioritise. Good lenses will always give good results. And they will serve us much longer. Bodies change, but lenses continue to create legends.

    238276 is the 500T? This is my initial gut feeling but as I look at it longer it's actually sharper on lashes and hair and the grain is finer. Either way, respect.

    Stunning images, as always! This camera ages like fine wine...proud and glad I haven't sold mine.
    Another method of balancing the image, that has been adapted by a majority of colorists, is mapping your adjustment node to linear colorspace. Cameras also do their processing in a linear CS, before it gets converted into whatever...By mapping the node to linear , the "Gain" color-wheel acts the same as a camera would change WB or colorshifts in general. Also exposure-changes can be made accurately just like in mapped hdr-wheels. The big benefit is, that it's way faster and accurate to shift the image, where you want it to be. Try it out, maybe you'll like the extra freedom...it looks way better and is accurate, unlike the Offset-wheel

I know it’s not as small as the Pocket OG but the bump in dynamic range,Rez, and frame rates is interesting and I consider it one of the most overlooked Super16 digital camera

    Brother!
    Here's my take on how to get an even "better" and "film-like" image out of the OG. Shoot CinemaDNG, use the Highlight slider and Shadow slider to pull info (you can pull soo much info it's ridonculous) and then use other exposure sliders set your image to a Film-Like curve (Like Dehancer's Black and White points and PRINT exposure settings). Then I usually clean up the grain with a noise reduction node (which will clean up colored noise and shadow noise) Then I add grain back in manually but to different parts of the curve (midtones, highlights) to roll things off even more and get thicker shadows. Which in all, creates the illusion of having more DR, a roll off and a nicer film like grain pattern.
    And please pray for me that I one day get to play with those Canon S16 zooms on my OG.
    Thx,
    P-L

    • @BlaineWestropp1
      @BlaineWestropp1  3 дні тому

      I have to confess.. for all these months, I have been using an old micro SD card, in a card adapter. so I can only shoot a few seconds of DNG 😇 but.. I had 2 of these cameras for many years and shot in raw all the time, and prores. I am quite familiar with the highlight and shadow sliders, they do nice things. i like dehancer too, thank you for the reminders. something about some of this footage yearned to not be pushed too far in post. I made a modified look from F1 of course, put that on the monitor, liked what I saw, and kind of just wanted some of that to live on as is :)

    This is great man. Just curious, why do you keep your gamma at rec709 and not 2.4 / rec709-A? What is your timeline / export gamma at?

    • @BlaineWestropp1
      @BlaineWestropp1  4 дні тому

      thank you! i use 709a in the project settings (which is basically just a fix to see things a certain way on a Mac). using rec709 as the output is more true to what manufacturer luts look like, as well as what is expected for a rec709 conversion, as well as what things looked like pre color management chaos. but.. you can use 709, 2.4, or 709a and be fine and get the same results. whatever you become very closely tuned in with, is a good thing, then you know its limitations and strengths. but of course.. as tech changes you can adapt. so I always test this stuff deeply. and when not delivering to web, there are other things that need to be done. but even recently I finished a film for the theater. I created the DCPs. I tested thoroughly at a theater. results were proper and as expected using this workflow.

    • @jedits9102
      @jedits9102 3 дні тому

      @@BlaineWestropp1 That makes total sense, I had a feeling that your timeline was rec709-a. I have tried to use 2.4 even with a clean feed and I cannot avoid gamma shift on web deliverables. 709-A seems to be the only savior .But I think you are onto something with keeping the gamma at the clip level / CST at plain rec709 so there is less of a tug of war. People really don't realize how technical color is. I have been trying to master it for years and am constantly learning new things. (growing grey hairs)

      The gamma shift issue is just wild. I check on computer, laptop, nice screen, two TVs, and phone. I have things dialed in for the look I’m going after and check it out in all different environments when possible. I think that’s the way to do it.

    Hey Blaine! Thanks for your videos. You've taught me so much. You introduced me to the term "IR pollution", which sent me down a rabbit hole and made me realize how this was effecting my image quality. I began looking for UV/IR cut filters. Do you have a take on UV cut filters? I'm 100% certain that I'll need an IR cut filter, but don't know if UV cut could inadvertently lower my image quality even more.
