Hi,
Since i really got a lot from this Forum over the last few Weeks in preparing for the AF101 i thought i should contribute something.
So i looked at the Equipment in our Office and thought about something that might be of Interest.
Noise is discussed a lot.
So I made a Gain Test with the AF101, EX-3 and the old Version of the XL-H1. For comparison.. In front of the same Background.
I used a Nanoflash with all 3 of them.
The recording Format in all 3 Cases was 1080 25p… 50mbit longgop...
I uploaded all the Nanofiles including the AVCHD Folder from the SD card. (used Timecode Trigger with the Nanoflash so they are the same as the Nanofiles )

usr: af101@tet22
pwd: agaf101
Now.. All those files never saw an editing System. They are straight from the Cards. I just renamed the AF101 Nanofiles for better Orientation.
What i did is make short films in which i left the different Gain settings on for just a few seconds. Starting with the best 0 Gain and ending with the worst.
The AF i switched from 400 to 800 and 3200 ISO. Or in Video Cam Mode from 0 to 6 to 12 db. EX-3 is from 0 to 9 to 18 db. And XL-H1 is from -3 to 0 to 6 to 12 and 18 db.
With the AF101 i used the Standard Scene Files from F1 to F6. I only changed the Format to 1080 25p in all cases.
And there is one customized Setting called "ownsettings" :
Film Cam
Detail Level -7
V-Detail -4
Detail Coring +2
Chroma Level -2
Master Ped -2
Cine Like V
Matrix Fluo
XL-H1 and EX-3 are in Factory Settings. Standard lenses. On the AF there is a Voigtländer 0.95 25mm.
I really look forward to hear what you guys are thinking……..
