Plain Text?
Hi:
I just got my HD-100 and really love the HD performance, I also have a DVX-100A but the HD detail on the JVC HD -100 on a big screen is amazing. It takes a little practice to get use to the change to a shoulder mount camera, I don't have the Anton Mount yet, have to wait until it comes in ( 2 weeks) , so it is a little front heavy, and slides around on your shoulder when shooting. I tried shooting a live Skate Concert on the 2nd day I had the camera, the footage could have been alot better. I had used the camera for about 15 minutes on the standard battery to shoot other footage before I got there. Well, besides having about 20 minutes left on the only tape I had on me (I got a head cleaning message), so I Fast Forward and then rewinded the tape to hopefully find a clean spot on the tape. Well besides having a couple of skipped frames, the results were still amazing ( considering I am just learning how to make this camera work). Anyone that wants to look at the 30fps results, the file is available on my website for viewing (its in a windows .wmv degraded to 384Kbps and it still looks not bad for a newbee on full automatic, bad lighting, and so on) <a href="http://www.portstanleynews.com/TV/Skate1.wmv">http://www.portstanleynews.com/TV/Skate1.wmv</a> The question I would like to ask is "are the scene files besides the True Color available in just plain text so I can input them manually, because I don't have a SD card reading, writing equipment?

Thank You
Thanks Paolo,
I guess I should have looked a little closer, Thanks for the directions. Well, I will give them a try as the standard look seems bland. |

The IDX adapter, which I rented for another unit weighted out fairly well. |

Tim,
Every link is working for me, except the ZIP files ones. It takes me to a DV Info Net Error Message, saying that I do not have "sufficient privileges". Luis |

TCV2 and 35mm transfer
I got a gig DP'ing a short film for an up-and-coming Chinese director for film festival release. He took one look at my hot new camera and said, "yay, let's shoot!" We're going to be transferring to 35mm - I'm going to try out Paolo's TCV2 since I want to preserve every ounce of data for the color correction and digital intermediate stages. I'll let you guys know how it turns out.

Alexei,
Paolo recently published a V3 of his setting. You may want to check them out, along with his comments as to why he is recommending the new parameters. Luis |

Match settings for HD100 and HVX200
Anyone tried to match settings on the HD100 and the HVX200? I will be shooting a doc with both cameras...

Been there and tried that. I would maybe take another approach.
You might find that by setting the JVC to Paolos DSC matched setting and then working to match the HVX to a DSC color chart as well, might be a better approach. As a side note... I wonder if the HVX will gain you as much color latitude as does the JVC. I say this because although the HVX did a great job right out of the box in regards to color reproduction; it did not have nearly the range / latitude as did the JVC. This added topic is for another thread, sorry. The only look of the HVX was softer with less detail. So the first thing you will want to do is to turn OFF detail on the JVC, (even a min setting was higher than the HVX in my opinion). then work on color.

A general question about the scene files.
What is the difference between using scenefiles (like TrueColor 1/2/3) to bump color & other variables during shooting, than doing it during post production inside NLE or other software?
assuming: * Electronic sharpness is controlled or MIN/-7 * That I have time/desire to do minor tweaking anyway. If you record widest possible bland image (maybe default settings or some wide DR scene), you have the freedom of tweaking it during post. So, are SCN files used to save time during post or when post production is not a luxury...
