Cine D vs Cine V no plain ol Cine Gamma now what to do?

Detail down, coring up, chroma level down, b. press or cine-V, and get a wide range of exposure. Look at a waveform -- if all your video is bunched down under 30 ire, it's going to look noisy and nasty. Have a full spread of dynamic range in each shot, get some highlights in there and it'll clean up nicely.

On a shoot at the moment and tried to eliminate the noise by using Cine-V and found it to be very contrasty and to be honest you could get the same effect by shooting in Cine-D and crushing the blacks in post. Still thought the image was noisy.

Then took some words of advice from this thread and shot Cine-D with B.Press. It was the best result we'd managed so far. If anyone knows how to limit the noise even more do tell ;)

Gotta say under the same lighting conditions we also had a Sony V1... No noise at all on standard settings, but jaggies!

" shot Cine-D with B.Press." I'm confused. I thought that Cine-D
and B.Press are two separate settings on the dial wheel on the back of
the
camera and thus an either/or situation? How can you shoot with both?

Thanks.

Also, I can see Cine-D or Flo. for example but what kind of a name is
B-Press?
 
Sorry, was thinking out loud there! Cine-D is default scene file 6 on the HVX, we changed it to B.Press but we always used to refer to scene file 6 as Cine-D... So what I meant was we had it on scene file 6 with black press (doh!). We switched to B.Press in the menus.
