How clean are those blacks!

Have a look at this ten second clip. No ISO / Gain used at all. The blacks (esp on umcompressed footage) look so clean - I really lovely the look of it - could be the start of the next Sherlock Holmes movie. This camera is so much fun! Sparky :happy:

Nice video. In your Vimeo description you say "this demonstrates how clean the blacks can be on this fantastic camera - no gain or ISO at all in this shot." Does it mean you shot it at 0 dB / 400 ISO? What recorder did you use to shoot uncompressed? Thanks.

Looks great!

Would you mind re-stating them? And, what ISO were you shooting at?

Sorry for the delay, been out for a few hours and UK time here! I shot it with ISO 200, which I understand is the lowest amount you can set, didn't use nanoflash or anything just at the standard bit rate. I shoot everything at 1920 x 1080 at 25 fps. Used editman's 5D settings.
I am off to Hong Kong tomorrow for a shoot with my main camera, a PDW-700, but I hope to get some free time to go out and with my AF101. Should be a reallyinteresting place to get some really nice shots. I'll pop something up when I return!
