Provide High Contrast D5200 Footage?

I've been looking at some D5200 footage and I'm trying to better understand the camera's clipping. To do this, I need high contrast footage, i.e. both shadows and whites clipped, preferrably in the same scene. I also need to know what profile was used for each shot. This is because the neutral profile seems to effectively map the DR to 16 to 235. I will of course share whatever I discover with the wonderful forum members here. :) :) Thanks very much!

Even footage that just clips badly on just one end, high or low, would be helpful. Right now I'm at an impasse b/c I can't determine where clipping actually begins in the footage that I have.

THANKS SO MUCH!

BobbyMurcerFan,
I had original clips on page 47, if not mistaken, with clipping on metal parts, highlights, comparing it to GH2

Thanks Oleg, but the clipping isn't strong enough. There is something odd with this camera's footage, AFICT, where the chroma can go very far out of gamut. This makes it very difficult to tell what the real clipping level is. What would be great to have is just a shot of the camera pointed at a lightbulb, shot with a standard profile. And then maybe the same shot with a neutral profile. No Flaat or Gamma at this time, LOL! And I'll worry about the shadows after I figure out the highlights.
 
Oleg, thank you, that certainly helps!

If I could get a progressive shot with some extreme shadows, maybe putting on or taking off the lens cap, that would be AWESOME! :) :)
