That's really nice looking to me. It looks like a film shoot instead of a wedding video. Any CC or scene settings you care to share?

Very nice looking!
Just like "Uncle Ben" said, it does look like a film shoot.

what is your black setup at?
0% or 7.5%, the blacks and colors look very milky, Id put setup at 0% and master ped at -5
the framing seems very nice, but the color is lacking, try crushing down the blacks in CC.

Do you normally use a light in the church?
These look great, but most places I've been at they would kill me if I tried to set up a light during the ceremony.

I think the 2nd grab looks marvelous. The DOF is perfect and the lighting is magnificent... It looks like a shot from a movie.

I meant to mention the DOF. Did you use an adapter or was the straight from camera?

I agree with LeSeulGiraffe. A little soft for my taste, but nice stills overall.

I'm actually glad your pics came out this clear and animated, I know straight out of Vegas that things look kinda' chitty' but your stuff looks filmic and I'm sure on a regular tv that people would be astonished.
Btw, the girl on photo 6 looks like Jackie Guerrido, if it is then I definitaly have some photos to send her. :thumbsup:

I second that it looks soft and personally I think people prefer to see more wide angle shots than closeups in weddings. Can you post them if you have some?

Hi all. thanks for your replies. Well, they look a bit soft but I´m not sure that the weedings videos must be very contrast, for my taste I prefer a bit soft... but, yes, maybe these pics look very soft.
The answers:
- I shot in 25P (pal) and my setting are 0 except -1 master pedestal (maybe the next wedding I´ll go to a -5 master ped)
- I don´t use any adapter, simply I shot at 2-2.8 f and max telephoto
- I always use lights in church, here in my country the churchs are very old and they are very dark. Here I haven´t problems with this
I have increase the contrast in pic 2.

I think your framing is great. I agree with the coments on them having a cinematic quality.
However, the image itself looks quite noisy to me. Maybe it's just the stills but I see alot ot grain.
As far as the CC pic you just posted....IMO you went too far. It makes the image too harsh. Gives it a harder edge that I'd personally not want in a wedding vid.
Nice shots as a whole though.

I gotta go with rook...too far on the contrast.
I would want to split the difference between the before and after.
But they look great.
Wish I could set up a 1K when I shoot in a church.

Lighting in a church? thats not another country thats another planet!!! I swear sometimes i feel lucky if i can negotiate shooting from behind two plants through a doorway and under a camoflauge hunting blind. hehe. Your shots look nice, i like to alternate between contrasty and soft images on weddings and really mix it up, keeps me from getting bored. The contrast was a bit too much on the last pic there, might want to bring that back a bit, or not, could look good in motion.

Hey guys. It looks pretty alright. I'm sure they'll love it. I decided to choose a random grab of yours and CC it. If this were my project, I'd probobly CC it like this
Here's the original:
and here's my CCd version:
Still really basic CC:
1. Overall curves
2. overall saturation lowering
3. further lowering the saturation on all colors but reds - bring the reds out. (the skirt, carpet, etc)
that's my two cents worth. Looks pretty good otherwise. I'm sure they'll be very happy with the video.
