Thank You! Yes, Nikon Z8 w/24-120 f/4 kit lens 🙂

Glad you found it helpful! Both cameras are awesome.

I used ISO as low as 800, most scenes were 1600-4000, and 1 or two at 25600. I use a bit of NR on most things I shoot with the Z8, as little as possible to avoid softening, but to sometimes include temporal and spatial. I would like to be more precise with the exact details but the Z8 does not save shot metadata.

The main asset is to use a faster lens, here the Z 35mm F/1.8 and Z 50mm F/1.8

I have had one hot card warning but not on any of these clips. It was on a brand new Angelbird CFExpress B, after only a few minutes of shooting, just that one time in the beginning, did not shut down and has not happened again. Really not sure why, it was warm outside but I didn't think it was subject to overheat, so a bit surprising but has not happened again after lots of shooting. All the shooting I do and have ever done is 8K/60 NRaw/NLog.

Just to add, most of my shots are 45 seconds or less. If I was doing extended lengths I'd probably use a 4K compressed codec.

Thank you!

Thanks. Most scenes were Z 35mm F/1.8, but several were Z 50mm F/1.8

thank you!

@@pmw350kThank you!

NR is not a flaw, it's a feature whether you accept it as baked in-camera with a mirrorless, or in post with Resolve and BRAW. Here's your screenshot. drive.google.com/file/d/1lr5ymbzXVqwCOZE--cOXgKmC4nUv74tm/view?usp=sharing

Desculpe por isso.

True, but the video is shot in 120 fps, played back at 60, so what you see being displayed is actually playing at half speed, slow motion. All the frames are being displayed.

@@pmw350k Ah, I see. Would probably be best to mention that.

Please click 🖱 the settings icon ⚙ on the player tab, click the Playback speed tab and change the speed to 2 or 2x.

Is it derived from Dolby Vision?

@@TheCrucialQ DV is a type of HDR.

Thank you!

Exactly what you said, heat haze, mirage. If affects the distant shots of the snowcapped mountain peaks as well. Lens focal length was 400mm at both points. It affects everything really, just an atmospheric condition caused by temperature differential between ground and air. Less noticeable at shorter focal lengths but still there.

@@pmw350k cheers for the reply, amazing how much colour you pulled into the shots compared to your other video

@@misterboyle Thank you Ian. I enjoyed your videos as well.

Thank you for your honest critique!

Thanks, but these are straight from the camera BRAW imported as Extended Video. I just selected the default daylight preset (5600K) and that was all.

KZbin is doing away with VP9 codec for 8K. You can see it in 8K by switching to a browser that supports the AV1 codec; Firefox, Chrome will play 8K. Edge, maybe not.

@@pmw350k sounds cool

It was graded with DaVinci Resolve Studio in HDR10 gamma and Rec.2020 gamut; sourced from S-Log3 XAVC-I codec from Sony PMW-F55 cinema camera. It was uploaded with ST2084 and ST2086 metadata and SDR Lut so it will play on KZbin as intended in HDR or SDR with no user intervention needed. So short answer, some software processing was required but nothing drastic.

Was just referring to the colorimetry which is the same. The transfer characteristic used in the video is ST-2084.

Hi, video files were graded in DaVinci Resolve Studio RCM, input transform Rec.2020, ARIB STD-B67 HLG, output transform Rec.2020 ST-2084 1000 nit. A cube lut was included with the KZbin upload for SDR viewing.

@@pmw350k when you say input and output transform, you mean ACES transform, or color space transform?

@@LaLogic2 They are the same thing. In this case it was RCM (Resolve Color Managed Space). There is a tab to select it. When I say "transforms," yes I mean RCM input and output transforms but also ACES IDT's and ODT's. (IDT is input device transform, ODT is output device transform.) I've used both, they work the same, do the same, equally well, the RCM flavors are a little more current, get a little more support from BMD. As the tools evolve and become better, I change up the recipe accordingly. Note also, in reply to DevaStation Crew (above), I shot this video in HLG not Vlog-L. HLG captures about a 1/2 stop more DR whereas VLog-L doesn't write above 80 IRE. VLog-L is a bit more foolproof, setting exposure is safer, less chance for over exposing in particular. So VLog-L is easier to use but capturing in HLG retains the full range 0-1023. In RCM, you would choose HLG for the IDT, and ST2084 for the ODT in this case.

Also I don't remember there being an IDT for HLG, so that's what I mean about RCM being a little more current. Perhaps ACES has an IDT now for HLG, haven't checked in a while.

They are 1st generation HDR, pretty old when I did them. Am not happy with the SDR conversion, my fault, did not grade the attachment downconversion Luts properly.

Here's another link to a HLG video I just uploaded. The attachment SDR downconversion Lut worked as hoped for. Unfortunately my upload bit rate was too low for KZbin to give it 4K streaming so I am redoing it. I welcome your thoughts on HLG versus PQ ST2084 comparison.

Whoops, forgot the link; here it is. kzbin.info/www/bejne/n4awhp6MgdJlptU

pmw350k not bad actually, better than a lot of HDRs around, still lots of details found

Thanks hokoonho! Here's a link to a better one. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHfEc4CLnrOHj6c

pmw350k definitely better.

Here is a 44 second trailer. The spec was for 4000 nit. It was graded by me but shot in timelapse by Rafael Asquith. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pnXWo6qZr6xqj8k

STEFANO NOBILE I used 'Natural' profile with sharpness (-1).

STEFANO NOBILE Other clips on the way soon. Thank you Stefano.Tom
