I don't understand your point. Didn't I just say that already?
Of course it is predictable, that's why I did it. Two different looks.

Good question. It wasn't necessarily supposed to show anything except two different ways of exposing the same shot. In B, I used an ND filter to keep the background dark in relation to the face. ...

I suppose that's true, but I don't fancy myself a "cinematographer". I am definitely an ENG boy and that's what clients pay me to be.

A:
PMW-F55
Camera 10' from subject
Ungraded S-LOG3/S-Gamut3.cine
Schnieder Cine-Xenar 95mm
f/4.5


B:
PXW-Z750

Nice grade, Mark. I like it.

Okay, for anyone who is interested, here is another test. This time I got the mannequin out of storage (BTW, her name is Mary) and shot three 7-second 4K test clips. I'd be interested to hear...

I'm joking, of course. Perhaps I needed to add a smiley face to my last post.

That'd be crazy!!! I don't even know where you ever got such a stupid idea.

True, but what if one of those shots was done with a GoPro and the other with a Venice? Then that would make a big difference, right? That's not the case here, but the project I'm working on is...

Thanks for all the feedback guys. It has been even more helpful that I had anticipated.
I think I'm going to have to make some changes and shoot another comparison that is a little more...

I don't even know what an S5 is, so you can rule that camera out entirely! :-)

Curious to know if you are judging from these small embedded images or the original 4K grabs?

Thanks for the comments so far. Very interesting and helpful.
I should have mentioned that I'm kind of using the plant as a stand-in for a human head. My mannequin is in storage and I've got nobody...

I'm doing some camera/lens testing today, looking mostly at DoF comparisons. And if you have a minute, I'd value your opinion. Do you prefer the DoF of A or B?
I've made these ungraded S-LOG frame...
