btw i thought the flashscan was an 8 bit scanner, so why the 10-bit files? you can still play 8-bit files in a 10-bit timeline, at least with blackmagic, and enjoy 10 bit rendering of effects. seems like all you "gain" from 10 bit files is 25% in file size.

how much extra is it to transfer to hard drive? it only says minidv and dvd in the price list. can you get the "test sample" deal with a transfer to disk? i should probably be asking them this but hey, what are friends for. ;-)

last time i talked to them they did dump to HD at no extra charge ...

Me, I have 2 carts of Vision 2 - 500T and 1 cart tri-X

Andec would like 133 euros for the processing and Vision 2 print. It's expensive for me. I seek a solution. Perhaps remplace the print by telecine (for example AVI DV on DVD).

well, that comparisonm would have been a lot more useful had all three been telecined to the same brightness. now the only real conclusion we can draw is that the more exposure it gets the brighter the image, which is of course a no-brainer. ;-)

right. but it was a hazard product, when my ...

FlashScan8? Could you elaborate on that box? How does that compare to a "real" telecine?

I suspect you don't have the image control on a FlashScan8 that you would with a full-on telecine with color corrector. So your video transfer is likely not showing you all that's on your film. Shadow detail ...

I second that. My experiences is that with small gauge formats its smart to overexpose 1 stop or more. The grain and shadow detail just gets so much better.

In terms of the direction
yeah, he really needs to frame his sync claps better. :-) how would you ever have a clue what's not included in this *raw assembly* anyway?


Then you also agree that the footage here is not very well composed or framed. The 'good stuff' that has been left out would of ...

Just out of curiosity what camera/lens was that 16mm shot with? What was it telecined with?

It was shot on a ARRI 16SR2 with a 9,5 mm HighSpeed prime opened at 1,4-2. The stock was a 120m short end from a TV production, my generous clapper loader still had it in her fridge. The scanning was done ...

That stock looks great and it is a compressed video that hasn't even been colour corrected, good God. Can anyone tell me how this stock looks in 16mm (or show footage or pics)?

It's a few loose and unedited shots from my upcoming short film, shot on v2 200t, nizo6080. The film will be matted for 16x9 aspect ratio. The reel is still 4x3 and contains only selective coverage from some scenes.

Enjoy. Nico

We're using an old Nagra 4.2 on our current S8 short film project with phantom power supply and Sennheiser and Neumann microphones, what a perfect sound and robustness! Lovely. It never let us down, in snow and ice, at -5 °C, harsh winds etc. The preamps are really great, if you compare it to ...

I didn't find it very stable, neither without nor with the pressure plate. just take a look at the clip. but thats super8, jittery - so we've decided to shoot our short without the plate.

I have shot many rolls that were stable. I guess that it depends on the cassette. Have you shot the ...
