Thank you, Mitch.
I know your business side matters, so I sorted out my idea.
I assume 7Q has a high contrast (3000:1), wide gamut (really good Adobe RGB like), 8 bit drive monitor.
My basic idea is that unlock native color mode and apply Adobe RGB based ODT LUT.
You only need to modify the...
I've been feeling similar thing too.
In terms of focusing, try URSA VF.
Connect the VF to the 7Q's SDI out and enable its PsF removal function, you'll see really nice focus without resizing. URSA VF's peaking is also nice.
For color and exposure, both OLEDs are not somehow solid to me.
Maybe...
This is a sample frame of F35 at 9 stops under. (Not from clipping exposure but from normal exposure!)
Just 5 stops raised and temporal NR is applied in post from uncompressed DPX.
It's at 9 stops under, I'd like to say this is beautiful!
You can also see clear steps in waveform if you apply...
Below are 2D spectrum for each of larger images.
F35
"new 4K"
They are quite similar but 4K version has less aliasing noise and other high frequency component which is not typical for sharpening.
It may be visual effect rather than real 4K sampling.
Finally, I made a extreme stress test.
All footages were shot at 5500K setting with a halogen light.
Raw looks simply beautiful while XAVC turns the colors in a psychedelic way! The differeces are more obvious with original images.
I tried to pull out skin tones from them but cannot as well as...
After that, I made several tests comparing skin tones of raw and XAVC in the same workflow with the RawViewer and DaVinci.
4K grabs below were lit by defused sunlight.

Hi, andycla and guys.
Below are 4K frame grabs of F55 comparing Raw vs. XAVC using a new function of the sony's RawViewer which enables to output XAVC from Raw files.
Fig.A is directly graded out from a raw file in S-gamute3.cine linear space with DaVinci10.1.4.
Fig.B is graded out from a XAVC...
