Taking into account the compression on youtube, I thought your footage looked pretty darn good. Maybe just try to hold the camera a little steadier, or use a tripod. Not always though - shaky footage is great for frenetic scenes, but I think the calmness of your subject in this case would have benefited from smoother, more stable camera work.

Keep up the good work!

Thanks for you replay

Yes i will use tripod next time . I´m also thinking of use my monopod with some weight on and see if that might help.

Very nice colors. Did you use and external 85B filter?

Yeah, a weighted monopod held lightly between thumb and forefinger just below the camera mount is almost like a steadicam - since the gear doesn't weigh much, you don't need the mechanical articulated arm; you have a couple of organic ones...I hope.

No filter is used. Either internal or external one. Colourcorection was done by the firm (uppsala bildteknik) that digitized it.

Why no filter? There seems to be a lot of this going on with 64T and I don't get it. Even with CC it looks cold. The 85B gives much better colors and warmer image. Even my latest tests with just the 85 were a tad cold but not too bad. My advice to anyone that likes color is to use an 85B with 64T.

I agree. It's nice footage and the great composition, but I could go for a warmer tone. Still have Kodachrome eyes, I guess.

I'm about to embark on my 1st project with 64T. Wondering if adding a *warm* linear polarizing filter would warm things up? Or am I misunderstanding this filter?

Soo using the internal 85a will work fine too? I´ll try that for netx 64T (right now i´m on experimenting with a noch--hacked 200t) Wath is the diference between using thath and external? And wath is difrent between a and b?

The difference between internal filter (85 not 85A) and an external 85B is that 85B is warmer by 200K than 85. 64T is 3200K Tungsten balanced stock. 85B warms color temperature down to 3200K. Internal 85 filter warms it down to 3400K (this is what K40 is balanced at). If you want to use a filter, you may as well use the right one: external 85B.
200T is also balanced at 3200K.

The 85B will give all the warmth you will want, it is the correct daylight filter for 64T. The internal 85 filter still leaves things a little on the cool side.

Using an 85 with the 200T corrects a lot easier than 64T. But I still prefer an 85B with 200T, as it cuts your effective daylight ASA down to 80 as opposed to 125ASA with an 85 filter.

I agree 85B - no going back!
