Great video. This camera looks like it's doing a great job. Any ideas as to what ISO the camera was shooting at on the interior shots of the car in movement? I do see some noise there, but I'm imagining the ISO had to be over 3200. Again, nice job.

The B&W stuff looked F'ing AMAZING.

The color had noise. Did you have control over the ISO? What ISO was this shot at? What lenses were used?

Great job, and thanks for posting this.

Hi Tom
It's a postproduction camera.
I didn't have any control (ISO, aperture etc).
I hope, they change it to the production ones.
Or we have to use more than just a light bulb in the studio.
I'm sure the cam used IOS 3200. In the car I coudn't control because I sat on the tripod and could not see the display when the door was closed.

Lenses: T&S 85/2.8, 100 Macro for VU-meters, 50/1.2, 85/1.2, 135/2, in the car 24/1.4 and 35/1.4 and in the rain 70-200/2.8.

I see.

Just out of curiosity, how did you guys get your hands on the camera?

I asked canon :-)

It looks like "video". If you had used the slow-motion way of shooting music videos (shoot in 30p with sped up audio, slow-down 25% to match original audio, and export in 24p), as it's the custom, it would look much better.
Andreas Isenegger 1 year ago

No.
Would be right when there are other subjects in the same scene. But there is nothing else which is moving. So it wouldn't change a thing to record it faster and play it slower.
Eugenia Loli-Queru 1 year ago

I guess we disagree. Most music videos in the industry are shot spedup and slowed in post, and that creates a special feel. The majority of these music videos are using this technique. Your video doesn't have this look, it just looks like "home video" in my opinion, even if you framed the shots perfectly. The "feel" just wasn't there.

No, we don't disagree. You said "..mostly..".
When you are a pro and you get a new prototype of a camera with a new technology and you don't have a clue, how it reacts, you don't do the fanciest stuff.
We had 1h to prepare the shooting, 5h to take pictures and a couple of hours to cut the video.
It's just a test with a prototype to see what the cam is able of.

In that case, that's cool then. I thought you had the camera for longer.

Hmm, the whole noise thing is questionable IMO, as to how bad it really is. This vid looks highly compressed in WMV (only 51mb for 2 min of HD). Plus those shots are thru a window, at night while it's raining. I think the compression is really bringing whatever that is "alive". Also, not sure what the criticism about not shooting "sped up" is. I've shot lots of music vids and have never used that technique. If you want the band to sing in slow-mo, you do that. It's an effect. And well, we all know this camera does not shoot in 24p. Still, these tests look amazing to me, considering what this unique camera is all about. Thnx!

Great test. I think that the color footage, the more naturally lit footage looks WAY better than the over lit inside footage. The B+W looks really hot and very video like. The clarity in each shot is pretty incredible. That's one thing the D90 is lacking is a sharp image. But 24p versus the 30p look.... well it's easy to see which one looks more filmic. Great job on the test. Very incredible given your time frames.

I guess we disagree. Most music videos in the industry are shot spedup and slowed in post..
that is crap....not true at all..
the video Coldplay - Yellow is a good example of this technique..but most clips have a base of 24 or 25fps..
they may do vary speed but to say they are nearly all shot sped up is rubbish..
i do not no what country you are commenting on...

It was this video that convinced me that great things were possible with the 5D MK II in the right hands. - Great job I still love this video

inspiring video. what compression settings did you use to upload to vimeo?
Andreas Isenegger 5 months ago

Hi
It's a long time ago ;-), I don't know. The video is near 3 min and the original file has 94MB.
Vimeo compressed it to 50MB.
