I compared them to f900, i honestly thought i was looking at something from a DVX in comparison.

"the difference between this and cinealta is like night and day."

Again, so that everybody keeps perspective here.

That's a 1080p frame of the Bourne Ultimatum trailer. Click two times to get the whole resolution version.

Lol... First one is very nice, Flame. Shows that the filmlike quality come more from defects that otherwise.

Personally I think most "filmic" grades tend to be more a caricature of film than an actual representation.

It's like double interlacing film and then crushing the highlights. It 'looks like video' but really it's just caricaturing it.

 

[Casey Green]

Thought I'd have some fun with color correction. By no means are these pro grading... just havin' fun. But so much data to work with! Awesome.

(Original is first - but converted to 1024 jpg)

Casey, very nice "three faces of eve". If ever a camera could have dissociative identity disorder... I appreciate your sense of aesthetics and the range of contrast you have been able to modestly demonstrate.

Thanks Andrew, it was fun to try different moods. I love what others have done on this thread as well. Keep it up guys - very cool!

 

[Álex Montoya]

Well, adding grain in order to make it more filmic ain't caricaturing, ain't it? It is an inherent characteristic of film.

What I try to say, as Graeme stated before, is that well shot RED footage only gives away its origin because it lacks certain defects characteristic of the photochemical image.

I recently transfered a HDV short film and the 35mm copy was certainly more film-like than the clean HDV digital master. And why was that? Mainly because two charcateristics were added: grain in the transfer and the flickering in the projection.

 

[Álex Montoya]

That wasn't very clear. Let me reformulate it.

I mean that almost every good characteristic of film is present in those pics and that if someone didn't find them film-like was just because some of its defects were missing.

Hence the grainy CC I did.

Very nice, Kjetil! (image below) Do you have a higher quality jpeg of this?

I made a 'discovery' while doing a sky replacement on the magnum:

Compression tiles. Yay!

 

[Sanjin Jukic]

Who cares, add appropriate film grain etc...

Sorry, I only worked with a small sized jpg posted directly on this forum.
