CP's for XF200/XF205 at DVinfo.net

Wil Vermeesch · August 17th, 2014, 11:27 PM

Hi,
Are there already Custom Picture settings for the XF200/XF205?

I asume the ones to be used at XF100 will probably do on these cameras too.

Thanks in advance for your feedback,
Wil

I don't have an XF200/205 to actually try it, but probably not. From the bottom of page 143 in the English version of the user manual:

Quote:

Only camera settings from other XF200 / XF205 camcorders can be used with this camera.

It is also a different sensor than the XF100/105 and historically Canon has, unfortunately, not engineered its Custom Picture profiles to be in any way interchangeable from one camera to another.

As few 200 / 205 cameras as are in the field yet (still don't see the 205 as available here in the U.S.), you're probably on your own to build CP profiles for a while.

I'm waiting for the comparison between one chip Xf200 and three chip Sony NX3.

Refreshing this older thread....

Does anyone know of source for camera profiles for the XF200/205? I've searched the web but have not come up with anything.

Thanks

Reed

Bump again.

I just picked up a XF200. Still getting used to the camera (coming from a Nikon D810) and at the stage of messing with custom custom picture profiles. Thanks.

Hello Steven

It can get lonely here in this thread....

I joined a couple of FB pages devoted to XF 200/205 and am mining those groups for additional CPs. In particular, I am looking for a profile that better matches the 200 to the XA 20 as I use them for theatrical docs and they seem to do well (for that size sensor) in the light available.

Happy hunting!

Reed

Still waiting for a review between XF205 1 chip vs NX3 3 chip? Thanks for the help.
