Not sure what kind of magic you pull out of your hat but your videos on vimeo are much sharper then what I upload, I know it's not done for a magician to share his tricks but hoping you can make an exception to share your workflow up until it reaches vimeo? :)

Edit: weird, my question appears before your first post on my screen :)

Actually, I've always thought your projects were quite impressive Noa.

This project workflow was shoot 60p, edit native AVCHD clips in Final Cut Pro X, Share (FCPX export) as 1920x1080/30p, upload to Vimeo.

Many thanks for watching and the good words.

Well, your video just looks very sharp, sharper then what what I seem to get, do you edit in a 30 or 60p project? When you upload to Vimeo, what is the bitrate you use?

Re: RX10 & RX100II Royal Caribbean Jewel of the Seas
 
Noa,

With the Somy RX10 I shoot & edit at 60p, the GH3 30p. In camera RX10 sharpening +2. FCPX eliminates the bit rate guesswork by exporting to device type (computer, Apple device, etc..). I usually export for Apple Device which is 126kbps.

Nice one Dan (again). Nice camera moves and you certainly know how to make plush look...lush.

I note you up the sharpening in-camera. I must give that a go as I almost invariably do so in post anyway, and it lessens the load on the perhaps already taxed codec to do it before compression, I imagine.

Cheers...

Dan,
As always nice work and I'm dreaming about May. My wife and I will be on Oasis for a fun fill time to celebrate our anniversary. We'll make 3 stops all of which we've been to many times before but who care...This time if I don't leave the ship I don't care. January last year we went out of San Juan on Adventurer with family (about 25 of us) and had a great time of course. My daughter is now a licensed agent (retired from her other business) is a Diamond+ on RCL and close to some big thing on Carnival. She's on RCL Independence right now and then going over to Carnival Breeze. She's been on that this year 3 weeks in a row doing some work for CCL. Nice life!.
Anyway nice work as always perhaps one day we'll meet up on board!

O|O

Good to hear from you Darren. After my first cruise, I was hooked...

I hope your 11 days fly by, and you and you're RX10 have a great time.

Thanks for the kind words John. Though I shoot for minimal editing, the RX10 AVCHD codec holds up surprisingly well in post if needed.

Thanks for watching.

Many thanks for the good words Don. I hope you have a great time on Oasis. It is a massive work of art...
