Scarlet & Epic 120FPS Tests with rain

[Nick Mahar]

Did some testing last week between Scarlet and Epic for chromatic noise but also wanted to compare high frame rate.

1 shot in here is 120fps at 1k on Scarlet. Can you tell the difference?

Definitely hard to tell with youtube compression.

 

[Nick Morrison]

True hard to tell. PS what streak filter are you using? Looks good.

 

[Jack Allred]

I would guess the 2nd shot, fireman running towards camera, is shot on Scarlet. It's a guess, though. What's the answer?

 

[Casper Warnich]

I'm guessing the guy with a helmet is shot on Scarlet, and the guy without is shot on Epic. But hard to tell when so much of the picture is out of focus

 

[Logan Gee]

I guess the answer is, if your final format is YouTube, Scarlet is just as good for firemen in the rain!

I don't know what's happened but this footage is completely destroyed by "blocky" defects. You better check your workflow, me thinks.

Cool shots though.

 

[Paramon Ivanovich]

of course,
it's @ 0:36

Both the first shot and 0:36 look somewhat soft, but can't tell if it's focus or the res.

 

[Nick Mahar]

Sorry for the late response! it was the firefighter running shot.

 

[James_Mills]

Not really a fair test given that the shot's in motion and the subject is silhouetted. I'm curious why some shots look softer than the others though, but I guess it's just focus or compression / youtube upload or something

night and day difference between both dudes running.... the water droplets are virtually a blurred wash in the 1k scarlet shot... in the epic shot.. you can pause the video and count the drops of rain...


i stopped at 478.


mainly because i had to get back to work.

Still an awesome comparison, nicely done and thanks for sharing

why anyone uses youtube anymore for showing footage is beyond me, vimeo or go home I say. Also might wanna work on your export workflow.
