Camera Matching M2 "and" regular HVX?

[Orangemoon]

Hey, all.

Has anyone done any two-camera shoots with two identical HVX's but one has a RR M2 (Nikons) and the other one is stock? With two different camera angles (at an indoor Interview setting), I'm planning to try both cameras (the HVX "with" the M2 will be a close-up of the person's head...the HVX "without" the M2 will be a half to full body shot).

I'll be primarily using the close-up footage and the 2nd HVX is somewhat redundant but I'm curious if anyone has had the challenge of somewhat "matching" the two in Post (FCP). I know I can't replicate the DOF but with two very different shots, I'm wondering if there's a way to "treat" the 2nd camera's footage in Post so that there's continuity.


Thanks!

I have no answers for you, just other things to consider. The lenses themselves affect color and contrast, and the ground glass flattens contrast significantly. Then there's the diffuse texture that the adapter introduces. Those are all things you'll have to consider. I'm going to try to develop a matching scene file for my Letus35 Flip to match with-adapter to without-adapter, but I can tell you right off the bat they look very different indeed.
