  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Kinefinity MAVO Edge

Here are comparisons between the Arri Alexa Mini LF vs the Kinefinity Mavo Edge with only the ARRI_LogC2Video_709_davinci3d_33.cube Lut applied to the ProRes 4444 files with no further corrections made.

In the first clip you can see the male talent's right hand which is lit by the lamp is almost over exposed in the 2560 ISO sample and properly exposed in the 640 ISO sample. The 4.3 Highlight Stop setting controls over exposed highlights less and gives deference to the Shadows for less shadow noise. However, raising the Highlight Stops setting to a higher number would have given better highlight handling in the 2560 ISO example at the expense of noisier shadows.

I downloaded the H.264 video file from the Vimeo Website which Kinefinity made available and put a Power Window around the 2560 ISO section of the comparison image to try to recover the highlights in his right hand. Again, This is a Jpeg screen grab from the H.264 video file but I think an actual ProRes file would be more easily recoverable.

New Updates- firmware 6715

https://gafpaforum.com/d/52-kinefinity-mavo-edge-8k-firmware-updates

Added Shutter speed/angle fine-tuning.
Added ProRes 4444 high-efficiency mode, the data rate is optimized to 50% of standard ProRes 4444 with marginal compromising on the quality of the image, it also supports ProRes 4444 editing and color grading system. this makes the new codec more efficient than prores 422 hq but with better image quality.
Added Timecode Jam Sync function
Added FF 8K OG(8192X5288) resolution
Adjust lowest recording fps from 6fps to 2fps


Improvement

Improved the stability of the camera system under ProRes4444 codec
SDI output supports the anamorphic format
Video output shows correct output
Dead pixel removal is effective under calibration mode
SDI output is stable when recording 75 or higher fps
Recording is stable when continuously pressing the rec button
Improved the stability of identifying KineMAG Nano 1TB after hot-swapping.



Prores 444 efficiency codec

One of the most striking features of this update is Prores 444 efficiency codec. Its a new sort of compression which reduces file size to about 50% compared to the original Prores 444 filesize, this is smaller than Prores 422HQ, and it will playback on any computer and nle.
As a comparison Prores 444 is 1.5 more data than 422hq. so now the new Prores 444 format is only 75% of prores 422HQ. And image degradation is kind of absent, we will run some deep test but it seems awesome!
