    Going to search your channel, but would be great to get a cross-camera comparison doing this same test at 4k30 + 4k120 ISO 100,800,2500. Interested to see how much difference there is with as many Sony cameras as possible sharing the same lens with these settings.

  • @1992hb
    @1992hb Год назад +3

    This is great! But now that means in tougher situations like filming sports at night will make using 4K 120 impossible to use because I’ll have to crank up the iso back up to 2500 😂
    Good to know for daytime filming tho 👍

      @joshsattin had mentioned that to me as well, however that involves knowledge of more intricate post production techniques it’s not as simple as clicking a button. But yes if you know more then the average person about color grading I think you could achieve similar results in Cine EI

  • @Tugela60
    @Tugela60 Год назад +1

    Interesting. Other functions that result in a crop would do the same thing, such as active stabilization. Unstabilized images would have full oversampling, which reduces noise by averaging during the downresolution, but that would be reduced with active stabilization and consequently more noise would be present.

  • @QaziAdil
    @QaziAdil Год назад +3

    Great stuff! But it is not always possible to shoot at low isos based on the lighting conditions. In challenging lighting situations I tend to shoot it S-Cinetone to get less noise especially in 4K 24 and 30p.

  • @genxtechguy

    I haven’t heard anyone mention this, but looking at spec sheets, it appears there is a difference in 4K 120fps formats and data rates that are available for each camera. The FX30 is capable of 120fps in the highest quality ALL-I format at 600M … the a6700 is only in XAVC S format up to 280M for 120fps. Not sure how significant that is to quality in real world applications.

    • @ReachFilms
      @ReachFilms  7 месяцев назад +2

      You can’t film in the high bitrate on the a6700 because it’s impossible to do at 120fps with v90 sd cards you need cfexpress A cards

      Not asking for distortion but more noise. You can go to 2500 and get similar noise to 800 but I find in the crop mode 2500 looks significantly worse than 800
