POLL: New and old FC (false colors)

[Brian D. Goff]

Here's the poll on new FC vs. old FC

 

[Raul Gonzo]

I do miss the old FC, but I really love the new under and over exposure meters.

 

[John Marchant]

I'm liking the new system, but I embrace change in life. Not everyone is the same!

 

[Antony M]

Funny options!

I clicked "I only use a spot meter and don't need these gadgets " because I use the histogram, not FC.

I just shot a bunch of build 30 and seemed to get it right despite some pretty tough exposure situations. There were a couple times I was probably 1/4 to 1/2 stop over though.

I can tell you what I "want". I want to know -->when AND where<-- the sensor is clipping when I'm in any any viewing mode. That probably should be something I could use like zebras to display anytime/anywhere. Perhaps RED zebras?

I think False Color is very helpful if you want very consistent exposures from shot to shot within a scene. I don't like the idea of underexposing to be safe. We know the sensor doesn't have 20 stops so you're sacrificing something somewhere when you underexpose.

That's what Exposure Check does, it's always based on RAW and doesn't get affected by your video settings.
