Five minute short shot with HVX200

Emanuel said:
I just need some clips with an acceptable level of noise like this one in order to convince my parrtners to HVX direction. Is it possible your help once more?

Thanks in advance!

<PS> As I said, your work@here it's so much appreciated. One sole example? Dan's MPIC stuff.

Thanks for the kudos. I'm glad this is helping, because I've had a hell of a time deciding on things, myself.

I'll encode a few more and post.
 
anyone has P2 reader? I can't download, Pal Land a not serial number required, so I can't see Mxf files of Kaku on pc...if anyone has this free software please help...thanks

A LOT!

Again this is not my footage. I've just converted a couple of clips from raw DVCPRO HD to H.264. The footage is from Kaku in Japan.

Yeah! We know! The question is I have confidence in your skills regarding the handling of the conversions and, unfortunately, I cannot to say the same about all the HVX footage that we saw.

But when I get mine this Thursday or Friday I'll be posting a bunch of stuff. ;) Can't wait!! (...) I'll encode a few more and post.

I'm glad and so much grateful, I'll be waiting Steev!

BTW, I follow your DVCPRO-HD vs. HDV comparisions...so much hopeful your research and the way that you explained your POV about the subject. One word (again): USEFUL

[If not yet] Download it these Steev's conversions and run with VLC media player or quicktime for PC.

Ciao!

Thank you very much, Steev! :happy:
And maybe five more total 10 hours from now. Gotta get some sleep here.

OK! We'll be waiting!

Sleep well! Cheers! :beer:

One more note. I think the Singertest clip was a recompress to DVCPRO HD, and then my encode to a quarter of the data rate at 10Mbs. It holds up mighty well. I'd like to do some tests to see how HDV holds up doing the same (HDV Acquire, HDV export, H.264 encode). I wouldn't be too optimistic since I've already seen pretty bad results from a 2nd encode on previously encoded Mpeg2.

Example - http://www.holyzoo.com/content/hvx200/blowout/HDV_Second_Pass_Destruction.jpg

I think it's clear that it's pretty crucial to deal with HDV in an intermediate codec or natively and then master to uncompressed, before a final encode. I would recommend this for HVX200 acquired footage as well, but not as crucial.

For instance, HVX200 review edits and dailies could be rendered in DVCPRO HD to save space, a LOT less than uncompressed, then exported to H.264 and look pretty decent, without fear of complex scenes or high motion scenes getting destroyed and obliterated. I'd still like to work with an XL-H1 someday, but all of this makes the HVX200 a clear choice as my main camera to me.
