Sony a7SIII a7IV Fx30 Fx3 Codecs - XAVC S vs XAVC HS vs XAVC S-I

[@ThanhThanh-it1pm]

"dụ má mày tốn tiền nước"

[@saintmarkspics]

Shooting relatively static shots with simple tones and little visual complexity would reveal a marginal difference. You'll see little or no difference in DR or color. Movement with complex patterns or backgrounds will test the parameters of a codec. A moving subject against foliage. Someone wearing patterns, moving around by a river. Etc. Compressed and interpolated codecs really begin to fall apart under those conditions.

[@TrenchfootSalvador]

I remember this video years ago and now that im in your groups i feel so blessed to know the funniest camera tech guy 🤣🙏

[@daycreek]

If you switch to 420 instead of 422, you will be able to edit h.265 footage w/o dropped frames and you probably won't notice the difference unless you are chroma keying or heavily grading your footage.

[@nVuFilms]

I heard it should be easier

[@daycreek]

@@nVuFilms It is. I have the A7SIII and 420 edits just fine.

Everyone is saying XAVC S-I is easier to edit but for some reason my computer can not handle the files in premiere pro. amd 3900xt rtx 3080 64gb ram ssd

[@eyeintheskystudios]

Having the a7S III record proxies alongside the footage is butter. Really small video files. DaVinci Resolve FLIES using in-camera proxies. All you have to is link 'em, which takes just a couple clicks.

[@preformingmonkey]

Davinci (free version) has a cap on 8bit colour (for Sony A7siii at least) - do you know if the proxy files are a good workaround to this problem? Or do I need to bite the bullet and get the stuido version?

[@eyeintheskystudios]

@@preformingmonkey So you're saying you'd use proxy files as your source footage? If so, I wouldn't recommend it. You can definitely see a quality difference. Proxies are just best used to reduce the processing on your PC/Mac to allow the timeline to play without dropping frames (If I'm understanding what you're saying). But yes, I'd bite the bullet (it's worth the $300 with lifetime upgrades)

[@preformingmonkey]

@@eyeintheskystudios appreciate the reply! I was always under the impression proxies were essentially smaller files to work with on your timeline, but when it comes to rendering the footage, you can use the mirrored commands but on the main video files (if you get me). For example, each original clip is 100mb, but you make your timeline using the proxies for each file which are 1mb each. When you render the final timeline it uses the 100mb files?

[@eyeintheskystudios]

@@preformingmonkey Yes, exactly! Proxies just make it easier for you not to have a stuttering timeline (smooth playback). Resolve also automatically turns these off during rendering to use the full quality files, so you don't have to worry about turning off. However, make sure you turn OFF Proxies when color grading so you're using the full quality files (and turn on/off again where needed).

[@clericstar]

God i love your subtle humour in these videos. That part about your mum just killed me

[@nVuFilms]

[@fotoniknoise]

Well the best way to try the differences between codecs is to do it with moving shots, this the only way to get if the pixel scanning all over the image is affecting the overall smoothness as the camera has to continuously read the pixels while they are varying over time! With fixed shots it doesn't make a lot of sense. Thanks for the video anyway

[@nVuFilms]

🤙🤙

[@martinwoodfilms]

I've heard that the compressed shots don't handle movement as well, but have never noticed it in real life with stabilized footage (gimbal, slider etc). Any examples of the motion affected by compression?

[@fotoniknoise]

@@martinwoodfilms not sure either if there would be a straight example to this. but years ago, mainly this was the scientific difference between an FS5 and an FS7, by the time only the FS7 could do Intraframe, and the FS5 only Long gop, you could see that the image wasn't quite responsive with the FS5 when you had to do some heavy color correction in post, both were in HD 10 bit, so 8bit/10 bit is a factor also but it wasn't in that case.

[@martinwoodfilms]

[@cbflazaro]

dont assume that ALL-I is "best quality" just because its more mbps. H265 200mbps on slow moving/static scenes can hold more data than all-i at 600mbps Main difference is that all-i is faster to edit, but takes more space. quality, compressed 200mbps or all-i 600mbps, you wont see any even pixel peeping Neither will change the dynamic range.

[@nVuFilms]

The compressed versions are Long GOP

[@nVuFilms]

May have some issues with certain types of shots, moving objects etc. NOTHING we would ever notice to be honest

[@LoverOfTech]

I think ALL-I is only faster to edit it if the compression technique is H.264. If it's H.265 then it makes no difference and you pretty much still need to work on proxies

[@cloudiow]

How does this work? How can something like all Intra 600mbps h.264 be easier to edit than h.264 200mbs?

Thanks for sharing. I just got my Sony A7S III today and I wasn't sure what the difference was between XAVC S 4K & XAVC HS 4K. I want to shoot 4K at 120 fps and both codes are capable of doing that.

Appreciate the work you are putting into this to give us a good side-by-side comparison! Maybe an outdoor scenery comparison?? I think XAVC S gets pretty damn close to XAVC S-I. I am still new to my Sony FX-3 cinema camera but I heard in another video that XAVC S-I refreshes every single pixel, (not just the ones that changed from the previous frame like XAVC S) - But I hear it is useful when you have a ton of complex movement. Just wish it wasn't 4 GB / MINUTE!!!! I knew uncompressed 4K footage would take a lot of space but DAMN....

Hey Vu, thanks for this. It is actually a bit strange that you say XAVC S 10bit 4:2:2 edits on your computer. From my experience 4:2:2 footage is nearly impossible to edit smoothly on my editing workstation (8 core i9, 64GB ram 1080Ti). I already filmed 3 weddings in this format and it has been a nightmare to transcode so that I can edit smoothly. It appears that XAVC HS 10bit 4:2:0 wplaybacks and edits much smoother even on my Dell xps 15 laptop which is lower specs (i7, 1050ti). I was thinking that XAVC HS was going to be a pain, but it appears that 4:2:0 is much lighter to playback and the difference won't be noticeable for weddings. What do you think?

V60 can not activate XAVC S-I 4K ,even 24p.....

[@paulfairchild8942]

@@t6909 That is strange. Manual says SI at 23.976p is 240 Mbps which is 30 MB/s so a V30 card or V60 card should be fine. You're at the max of a V30 card though.

Are there any more codecs

[@HmongLovepho]

i cant play my xavc hs 4k on my windows, anyone know how to fix that? it just says format not supported

[@nVuFilms]

It's not supported yet. Can only play in the editor

[@paulfairchild8942]

Try using VLC media player. It's free.

[@AngeloPoulis22]

can u playback 4k120fps in camera's screen? can u playback 4k60fps in camera's screen?

I can sleep better now knowing you buy your rice.

[@paulfairchild8942]

Note a lot of users think XAVC S-I is the 'best' mode because it has the highest bit rates. That's a huge mistake. As you know XAVC HS and XAVC S are highly compressed. So despite their lower bit rates, they can capture significantly more data than S-I mode. S-I mode is best for users whose editing rigs are not powerful, because it is not a resource-intensive codec for editing systems.

All frames in xavc s-i are keyframes, it is better than the others

[@JamesonKung]

What settings do you use for these test shots? What ISO? LMAO just about to post this and the water part came on.

[@nVuFilms]

Base 640

[@midnightj1994]

Did you end up selling your Xt-4?

[@nVuFilms]

its currently still in my possession but it will be sold

[@armando.visuals]

Questions I hope you can help: 1- What are the best SD Cards for XAVC S 4:2:2 10 BIT? that will also support 240fps on 1080 2-Im going crazy trying to choose between the Sigma 24-70 f2.8 or the Sony 24-105 F4??? Going crazy between the two. What do you think is best for -Video first, photography second??? Thank you!

Prograde v90 sdxc

[@nVuFilms]

Sigma

[@loudandclearmedia]

Honestly, for client work I’d be shooting the highest data rate 100% of the time. If you aren’t going beyond 60fps, it’s my understanding that V90 SD cards will handle that, and we live in the day where 10 terabyte backup drives can be had for 100 bucks. The high data rate with minimal compression should edit just fine in the h.264 codec, and your work WILL look better than using the lesser options. You just spent 4 grand on that monster...flex dat thang!

[@stevenuseda6317]

I agree with you 1000 percent

[@paulfairchild8942]

If it's wedding videos, that's fine but remember that S-I mode is not the highest quality. A lot of users think the highest bitrate mode is the highest quality but that's not the case. XAVC HS 4:2:2 10-Bit is the highest quality mode despite being a lower bitrate. Its complex compression enables it to pack more data than S-I. But it will hammer your editing system. If you record in XAVC HS 4:2:2 10-Bit, you'll probably need to transcode to prores (or proxy edit) unless you have a power editing systems. S-I mode is still very good, but it's not the best mode the A7S III offers.

[@johnadams3038]

10TB SSD will cost you more than $1,000 so you're not entirely correct. You just don't edit high bitrate 4K or 8K footage with sucky sucky slow ass HDDs

[@berndadam8703]

Thanks for your quality test. I searched for a video which explained the difference between this krypton xavc codes. I could not see a difference between s hs and I. So I will use s in my a7iv, hopefully coming in Dezember. LG Bernd

[@mengm6088]

If “xavc si 60p” vs “xavc s 120p”, which one will be better quality?

[@lable2me]

stupid question
