Considerting the SNR 1 and SNR2, if we go to find the USABLE pure Dynamic range then this camera has 15 stops of pure usable (over SNR...
Hi me tests conclusions are,
16-17 Stops of Dynamic range, very similar to the F65.
Note the compression ratio 2:1 , better than DSMC 3.
I still prefer the F65, cause at same resolution, has same D Range buts is Global shutter, and with Rotary ND filters, as oppposed as a the (good idea...
Let me start by saying that I sent a PM to admin of dvxuser, asking permission to post this thread, first I suggested in Nikon forum. I did a few minutes ago, so if this thread is not welcome, you can (admins) delete, but please .. read, I think it is best to publish here, as it is a mix of...
Hi Charles, as the F65 was the one I loved when the early years of cinemartin (my old company), the RED 4K120P was my second mid time cinemartin (before Fran8k that was inspired in F65, global shutter, but in VV), being said that, my born and passion for the cinema started, as probably many of...
Apples to Apples, all is about cameras, I never had a film camera, yesterday I purchased a RED (my second RED on my carrer) , yes, but on the location where I bought, I found the 535B, this is why I started this thread, cause it was and still is , my top 1 absolute camera, absolute.
Currently looking just tu purchase , with a bit of luck, this year, as yesterday purchased a Ranger 8K S35 full set.
Looking forward the short future.
I suspect that this machines (moviola etc..) might be difficult or not, to found someone on second hand, as prices are sometime in the lower...
If I can purchase, I want to, not edit digitally at first, so just like the old school.
I am not sure, but, as I said, I think that, in order to edit, I need to convert the film negative (the one recorded from within the camera, say the 400 or 1000ft), to positive (opposite of negative, excuse...
Anyone used in those times ?
Is it expensive today days, the make a possitve from the neggative ?
Just looking at see vs scanning,
A) so cost of doing manually: say convert the film to possitive, then cut's / join (aggregate) (mounting the clip), then optionally, B
B) having possitve, to...
even the last video is a good approach, I see many videos kind of, IT IS NOT a true bench VIDEO, at least to my opinion, as it is not wel l lighted
A lot of light on the hightlights and a lot less on the dark areas may let some one think, Heii thats sounds good, but a "usable" is not a valid...
ye no problem, might be, but 2 things, rememebr than on these days, the did not have the oppotunity to use current tech to test, and. Still today the camera F65 appears on sony website, as of 2026, saying 14+ stops, not just 14.
Of course I dont want to convince to anyone, just to shown what...
Hi Cris, you said. "By the way Sony only ever claimed 14 stops for the F65" but that's not true, the commas and symbols must be quoted,
Sony said "14+ stops": means 14 and more, which equals to 14 or 15 or 16 or 17.. as they did not have the tech on those days to match what i did a few days...
Aslo this 2017, with Light (nooo lights please , no external light or as less as possible just fpcusing opnly on the chart, not on entire room), he states
"Grade corrected for best exposure at .." WHAT !!!! no men, a professional bench must have not color corrected grade, just source RAW in...
Geoff Boyle's Tests on the F65 date back from almost 10 years ago, 2017.
He not did it good at all, e.g. his words "Lighting was a pair of BB&S Area 48's courtesy of Lux&co" and Why the hell you put light on a scene when you only need to capture the light coming from the colors chart ????
Menn...
also as you may know, green has more info as the original sensor 45 degree, has 25% red, 50% green and 25% blue, A-OUI.SOME (pronounced awesome for many many people, a lot)
Hi, look at my videos , for example the Gibson one, thats a lot of DR,. also see the pics on the waveform.
Thats above noise floor, takle note that many people did not realize that, as many tools were not available on those back days.
This grapth shows 16.1 to my eye , or close to, above noise...
My resources doe not allow me to purchase Xyla's, and or use IMATEST, which are also a bit complicated. The easyiest way, give ever, a better result.
As if you use complex system , the results may get many escenartios, so more comples¡xity.
I did as more natural and pure, as I was able.
If you...

Hi Rob
I dont understand why I don't see your reply in tthe forum, yes of couse, few ones , there is one of a Gibson les Paul, in ACEScct, as well as others in 709 and in REC 2020 PQ
Distance from Sensor to TV about 3 to 3.33 meters, in front, as horizontal and perperdiculare better aligned as posible.
I see, correct me if I am wrong, 16 stops over the noise floor.
I Did many test, to this chart, 25 shots, from T22 up to T1.3, any step was a line (small or big) on the Arri...
