Thanks Ronan.

Obviously the video was shot to be trouble for a highly compressed codec. I wasn't trying to induce noise by gaining up, but by being slightly underexposed in very low light...

I might be able to post some clips later (HUGE files!) but here are a few grabs from both the HDV recording and the live SDI.

There is also a 1600x900 interlace to progressive converted frame...

Codec Torture Test Anyone?

I have some very codec-challenging-but-real world footage shot with the XL-H1, recorded uncompressed HD-SDI to computer (via Kona/FCP) and also to HDV simultaneously. It's kids outside at dusk waving...

I tested the raw HD-SDI from the EX-1 quite some time ago and I can confirm that it's true 10-bit. I recorded to a Kona card in 10-bit digitizing mode from the live signal. Used the 10-bit Sheer...

Hey Nick,

Once again, congratulations to you and the rest of the folks involved with "The Signal".

I'm really excited to see it locally. Is it possibly being released digitally anywhere? We...

What's the final delivery? XDCAM HD disc? If so, at some point you would have to resize and render the EX1 full raster material to conform it with the standard XDCAM format for output. No getting...

Ok, here is a 3 second 10 bit ProRes capture. (transcoded from raw 10bit SheerVideo..essentially uncompressed)

I did capture in true 10 bit uncompressed (lossless Sheer codec--still huge data rate--about 62 MBs), but that doesn't open in Color so I transcoded to ProRes HQ. I shot the sky at dusk (almost dark,...

Yes, I would like to have a real 10 bit HD-SDI montior. I wil say that the banding was much less noticeable on the CRT, but when viewing higher bit depth photos on my LCD, the banding is still way...

I love the parroting that salespeople and marketing reps do. These people don't do any testing at all. Sure, it's probably 10bit from a standards compatibility perspective, but I've tested the output...

Hmm, wonder what the problem is? It should work but I've never tried Sheer on a Windows system. ProRes should work for FCP6 users.

I've added a 10bit uncompressed QT frame. That should be...

Chris,

If you're interested in doing some extra testing, I'm local. I have an HD-SDI capture workstation. We could actually test the output and see if it's "real" 10 bit or not.

Enjoy you're...
