That's possibly the creative look they went for, not necessarily an error or bad grading. The Alexa's got better DR, skin tones and roll off to name a few. Actors faces look great on Alexa. Of course the filter package was different on these, so that needs to be considered as well. Price aside from a rental POV, Alexa has a stunning image as does the C300- it's a fine camera, just out of it's class up against Alexa in many areas not just image.

Seeing the C300 up against Alexa like that makes it look really bad.
Nowhere near the same quality... what happened to the baby Alexa claims? =[CAMP COMET : FILMMAKERS BLOG | SUPERSEEDS FEATURE FILM (DVXUSER BLOG)

Are you kidding? You do understand that there is a massive price difference between the two cameras, right? And, just judging from what I see in this test, there's no reason why a C300 couldn't cut in quite well as a b-cam to the Alexa. Of course, I'm not the only one who thinks so since the camera has been routinely used as a second cam to Alexa's since they've been out.
I've personally seen it used that way on a few occasions, but you could always just ask Ron Howard

Wait, what!? How much does Alexa cost?!?!?!
But now that I'm no longer kidding, it is a comparison video. One that was done objectively. I don't see the baby Alexa claim from this test, and it looks bad up against the camera. I was personally expecting it to be slightly better than what's represented.
Not even sure why the Ron Howard link was necessary. But, I had no idea who he was before you posted that, so I learned something new.CAMP COMET : FILMMAKERS BLOG | SUPERSEEDS FEATURE FILM (DVXUSER BLOG)

Nice job editing your post quickly after that passive aggressive comment (something to the effect of "why do people need famous filmmakers to validate their purchases"). Now I understand why people complain about you as a moderator.
