F65: Another Sony F65 test...

[bitnaut]

...for my own delight and edification......shot at 5fps and then sped up 1000x! I love how versatile the F65 is.

Anyway, in addition to fooling around with under cranking, I also wanted to see the quality difference between shooting at SQ and SQ-Lite compression. Honestly, even when magnified, I can't see a difference so I'll stick with SQ-Lite in the future.

Also, changing the EI on the camera doesn't actually change the exposure to that EI, it's just an "index": it still is shooting at 800ISO. In post then, you bring down the exposure and salt to taste.

I find that doing it this way, 200EI is definitely cleaner than 400EI or 800EI. In future, I think I'll set my EI to 640...a nice balance between noise and exposure.

Beautiful stuff! Also, i just realized that I might have purchased an HPX2700 camera from you on your ebay account a few months back.. i ended up selling it for more to adorama and getting my F23. btw, do you know how many volts/amps are needed to power the SRW1/SRPC1 combo from a wall plug?

Mine came with one of these originally.

Another option is this...which is what I use for my F65 in studio situations.

Anton Bauer power supply for F23/F35/F65

PS Sorry Mike, wasn’t me with the HPX2700...never owned one of those.

That's a great price for that DT-500. They're usually double that.

Gorgeous. Thanks for your very valuable experience. Great instruction for a beautiful sky replacement shot.

+1 on the Anton Bauer DT-500, I won a custom 30' 8 pin cable on ebay and the DT-500 consistently rams 14 plus volts to the F65 even through that much length.
