Scarlet #81 1600 ISO Test

[Roshdi Alkadri]

I agree, I was just saying if it was completely noiseless at say 6400 ISO, it would be revolutionary.

Michael, the images are beautiful. It would've been cool to ramp up the ISO starting at a low setting and going up.

Your posts are always appreciated btw

Thanks a good idea Roshdi.

Had a day to do a little testing of a camera that is about to be released whose same sounds like "sea three hundred". Now THAT is one amazing camera in low light. If you vimeo search my name you'll see the tests. The directors commentary has before/after and a 20,000 ISO shot.

The C300, from what I can tell, does do very well in low light.

The 20,000 ISO is impressive, but I would have loved to see it done in a darker area, so we could see how the blacks react to the ISO Sensitivity.

 

[Andrew Allsbury]

Is it possible to even find a dark area at ISO 20,000? LOL

Fixed pattern noise means noise that is in a pattern that doesn't change over time. You can't tell fpn on a still, as by definition there is no time.

Were you going to post the r3d in motion? That would be great to see the noise better than from a still, even if just a shorter clip.

Hey Trevor, I posted the link to the video. I tried to embed it on the main page, but it wouldn't work.

Here it is, and ill post a r3d trim later.

Is the Leo Cigar lighting on vimeo or somewhere? I can't find it with a search (really, I should have had it bookmarked).

Is there an ETA on the .r3d Mike? As always, I'm over-caffeinated and hence anxious.

 

[Nuno Ribeiro]

the still r3d is posted on the vimeo page, in the comments

Thanks for the R3D ! Good scene, very nicely done !

Unfortunately on this PNG screen capture, noise is there...a colored/video noise.

 

[Iain Philpott]

I see lots of noise - would love to see the .r3d?

 

[Nuno Ribeiro]

the noise looks easy to bring down, I just did a little Alchemy, but some blue spots still appear in the face where you have more light. any good procedure to deal with this? could black shading help?

We didn't do a black shading.

We probably should have, looking back on it.

 

[Nuno Ribeiro]

looking great, by the way, and thanks for sharing. For those of us waiting, it gives us something to work with and time to get used to Scarlet taste.
