I need to take some R3D files through Fusion...since Fusion dosn't support high bit depth video....otherwise I would just use cineform files...
I was intending on exporting DPX's from fusion and using the cineform conversion utility....converting to cineform avi then editing in PPRO
There are quite a few options when exporting DPX and I am not very experienced with the LOG workflow of it so I have some questions
The default options are to export at 10bit with a 95 black 685 white and film stock gamma of .6...these options are adjustable of course
i can export as well at 16 bit or 32 bit float...which at those levels the white/black point options are not available....
fusion also gives you the option to bypas conversion and save it out as linear.
In an ideal world cineform would also have a TIFF or EXR converter and I would just save it out linear and convert it that way...but the demand probably isnt there...so
Will the cineform converter properly deal with the linear 16 bit or 32bitFP data....
If i have to keep it 10 bit what white/black point/gamma should I use...and what flags do I need to know about in the converter to use it properly...
Loaded question I know....but thats my life..
