pdw-f Series : Favourite Settings?

[Uli Mors]

I know abouth the cam presets on the sony website - but I want to start a "realworld users" preset exchange.

After some settings have been posted I´d be interested if some of you have created dedicated Matrix or Cam settings for high contrast scenes or "glamour shots"

Anyone?

Thanks

I got a PDW-F335 2 weeks ago! What a great camera and a big step up from my "old" JVC GY-DV700 camera. The JVC had about 6 or 7 menu page's, and the Sony has.... well a lot more :-)

Today my camera was calibrated my a professional engineer here in the Netherlands and these are the settings he came up with, and which I like;

A49 MATRIX 2
User matrix R-G: 16
User matrix R-B: 6
User matrix G-R: 2
User matrix G-B: 17
User matrix B-R: 6
User matrix B-G: 4

The Cine gammas give much more dynamic range, as long as you're going to do some sort of grading, otherwise they look very flat.
