If you could do a video on how to make a lens powergrade I would be greatly appreciative. I am struggling with my Rokinon set and the resale isn't there so I'm stuck with the buggers. A powergrade would be my next best bet. Especially how you got the metrics for color shift differences and contrast. Just an idea.
It's interesting to see the difference between a model and a regular person side by side. The model person has face characteristics that are just significantly more noticable on camera. Bigger eyes for example.
Is there a reason you have the EF mount lenses for use with your A1? Is it specifically so you can use the locking MetaBones adapter? Thanks for these amazing reviews you've done of these lenses.
Versatility. If I switch to a Nikon camera or a RED or virtually any mirrorless mount, I only need buy a new adapter, not a whole new set of lenses. I also rent these lenses, and I can rent them to a much wider audience with EF mount than if I had E mount.
So if you use davinci resolve, there's a feature where you put in the color checker that you have, and then just eyedropper the correct patches and it will do the correct color manipulations for you. It's actually irrelevant that the colors aren't the vector scope colors as long as they can be calibrated correctly. IDK if premeire or finalcut have this feature but if you use davinci you can use the spyderchecker just fine.
While Resolve's "color match" feature does include this chart, it is a very different beast. You have to know the illuminant and other info to get reliable results. Even then, it's hard to predict exactly what it will do.
Also loose play between metal parts near xlr connection makes it useless on the moving boom pole. Had to put some paper between parts to cancel that play.
I got the 24, 35, 50 and 85 for more than half off! $2,000 plus tax and I think that made them more than worth it! I really wanted the Xeen because of the T 1.5 but price was the deciding factor!
Firstly, the colors should not match the vectoroscope immediately, they need to be adjusted to them by correction to compensate for the lighting and camera settings. And this is only if the colors selected on the checker initially, according to the manufacturer's idea, show exactly the value of the vectoroscope, and not some others. With such a large discrepancy, as shown in the video, it is worth assuming that the missing colors should not be there. Perhaps they initially show other values that do not fit the selected points of the vectorscope. To work with this checker model, you need programs with its color profile that will bring the correction to the reference values. And I'm not sure, but perhaps the colors that are suitable for a regular vectoroscope are on the back of the second card, which is on the gray side in the video. By the way, there is a skinton scale there.
Ooo thats the reason we got 2 teams shooting. We got x rite and the others got spyder. It never matced perfectly and they neede to hand match. 😅 damn spyder owes me at least 15K€ Lol
didnt listen to the video but did he just compare the ntg5 to the ntg2 a 500€ mic vs a 100-170€ mic? and no i wont even listen to the video i got bored after the first 2 seconds
You are using Datecolor Spyder Checkr for Photos, that is why your color Vector don't match. Why don't you try the CORRECT Datacolor Spyder Checkr for Videos. Also you said that you had your Datacolor of years, they recommend that the color cards should be replaced after 3 years to make sure colors are accurate.
