swiss brazil
nice, but feels a bit like a car commercial... which is sort of a compliment as that's the only kind of commercial where they really seem to focus on great cinematography.
As i used the Disjecta setting on the camera which is quite reddish
So to compensate i added some green.
Then i lowered a little bit the blacks which are never really black in the XH A1.
Truly an amazing video. The picture quality is so cinematic, I would never guess it came from video. That adapter you use must be excellent, plus your shooting style is superb.
I like this very much and yes it does look like a commercial which for some would be a compliment. Love the eyes of the baby - the color is astonishing.
i've been the lugano quite a few times (my father used to work there). it is a beautifull city and from a skateboarders view: i love the smooth pavements haha.
there is a 1 million swiss franks costing skatepark in lugano at the sportpark (soccer field) next to a cinema. i'm sure you'll be albe to make great shots there too.
Yeah, this is a great idea. I see it occasionally, but i never thought to shoot there. Especially because with the XHA1 i can't do super slow motion, that would be welcome.
Simply said: XHA1.
The HVX has easier colors (they look fantastic out of the box, has better codec and this is only visible on fast camera moves and subject moves. The image remains clean, stable, very stable)
HDV (XHA1) is nice until you have fast moves. The codec almost breaks and your brain notices something weird, not constant, not cliean. And the XHA1 has stronger colors, which is good, but it's really hard to create a look with it. But it's possible with some work.
What i like of the XHA1 is the lower noise and the better resolution.
In this price range the only cam that seems to beat the XHA1 for resolution and noise is the Sony EX1, but i hate it's latitude and colors.
I love the Kodak 250D film combined with an Arri.... hehehe!!!
Thank you very much about you said.
The real resolution start in many questions, the first is the how much pixels have in CCD/Cmos. Some camcorders have 1920x1080 captured file but the Sensor have only 800x1080. No have miracles. Do you know how much resolution the HVX200 has ?
This is the point. The HVX is far to be an HD camera. It's half way between SD an HD and it's painly.
It has 3 x 920px ccds, now matter how they shift them, the resolutions is this one, even if in the white paper they demonstrate that it can deliver a full hd image. It's a lie.
If you work for SD, the HVX resolution is good, but still and always soft.
When you see some commercials, shot with 35mm film, all that resolution, somehow is perceptible from a SD monitor.
In other words, the more the starting resolution, the better quality, even if you work in SD.
The market is moving fast, i would never recommend an HVX now. This year we could have great new cams coming out, with tons of resolution and quality.
Your work is a perfect example of the relative importance of the type of camera used. I'm far more impressed by your talents as a cinematographer than by resolution, although I have to admit I'd love to see your skills at work on a RED.
Beautiful work. Lugano looks so changed. The other videos had some typical sights. San Salvatore looked great by night! Are you going to trek up to Locarno or the Val Versasca?
Astute, yes i used a 35mm adapter

Great techniques used here. I learned a lot by watching .
I use the Letus Extreme
Video molto bello!

Nicely shot, I like it a lot.

Your focus racking is really good. Do you use any follow focus wheels? And what lens and f-stops did you use?
I'm inspired.
