Perya (Town Fair) - a Canon 7D Short

[Uwe Lansing]

... the more and more I see footage from the 7d the more I realize that it has problems with the highlights, it clips really easy...

Hmm..., can you explain it in more detail?

WTF, he claims that the footage wasn't graded. OMG...

This is miles ahead of "Reverie" as a pre-production look at what a camera can do. Sorry to say this Philip, but it's even better than yours.

Its not poverty,he has money for cigs,you dont have to feel sorry for them.But anyway lets back on topic, this proves that canon worked with jello problem and its not there anymore from what i see.

Sorry didn't mean to bore u with social commentary, I'll stick to image quality cause THAT'S the most important thing to get out of this clip

In this context (DVXuser) it IS the most important thing to get out of this clip.

Nice camera moves really helped sell those shots. Loved the way the codec treated the strong primary colors like orange, red and yellow near the start. They did not seem to 'float' at all.

It looks like it was graded ,too contrasty sometimes ,but also 5d looks like that most of the time(too crisp)

[J Davis]

Can anyone guess at what lightweight steady rig he was using on the opening shot?

Beautiful, the more and more I see footage from the 7d the more I realize that it has problems with the highlights, it clips really easy, am I crazy? someone shine in

Also remember you can change your "gamma" curve via the picture profile, so if you want to get more highlights in - you should eb able to. The camera is 14Bit, but the end result is 8-bit, you have to figure out what you need/want in the shot and prepare for that.

agreed 2:39 was the stand out shot. the rest of the footage has that uber clean HD video feel. super nice cinematic HD but not filmlike. i feel like the GH1 and 5D and the 7D all have that same look. i hope it can be graded out...

can this thing do a custom curve in camera? on separate RGB channels?? if it does then we should be sweet.
