Scarlet Available Light Test- video inside!

[Adriaan Kirchner]

Hello Red Friends!

Had a little spare time over the weekend to shoot a quick available light test. Pretty happy with the results, i apologize for some of the shaky out of focus shots but we only had an hour to shoot until the sun went down. I'm really surprised with the clarity of the night shots, i even forgot to black balance and the shots came out so clear.

Specs:
4k/2k downrez to 1920x1080
24fps minus one 60 frame shot
1/48th shutter
canon 70-200 2.8L/ 16-35 2.8L

Only question i have..Why am i getting the thin black bars on top and bottom, has to be a problem with compressing or down res. im guessing? Any help would be greatly appreciated

I suspect the black bars are due to the fact you didnt shoot 4KHD, but 4k, which is slightly different rez.. just guessing. Looks good though...

Ah, yes..4k hd is exactly double 1920x1080 hence deleting the lines? Thank you sir.

4k and 16:9 have slightly different frame ratios.

4k is 2:1 or 4096x2048 pixels, if you downconvert it to 1080 (which is 16:9, native resolution 1920x1080), then it becomes 1920x960, the rest is filled with black bars. If you don't want those bars, you can slightly crop in (Redcine X).

For my taste blacks are too much crushed.

And if we talk abou 4K, it was big surprise for me to realize that 4K on Epic has different frame size than RED ONE. I don't know why. It's ot good idea to call it same and has different frame sizes.
