I've got the full technical details of them, and am trying to decipher them! Cine2 is definitely the one you want to use for maximum contrast range capture. I'll need to check whether I can put the document up for download from my website.

I also like Cine 4 because it boosts the mid-tones a bit more than Cine 2. But yes, I can see where Cine 2 has the lowest highlight response.

I was playing with Cine 4 last evening on a sky/backyard shot and by exposing for the clouds, i could lift the Master black and bring my privacy fence up out of the dark shadows while the sky remained unchanged.
