Sony Z7 Wedding Clip - Took clip link off
Well here is the Z7 clip I promised. I was just at this wedding through a colleague of mine that was nice enough to let me come in and play with my Sony Z7 at his wedding shoot. I am not posting this as a critique of my style, but just so some of you can see what this great camera is capable of. The first part I had the camera on -6 gain, which was not good. the rest of the wedding was shot at 0, which I think is where it should be, and not at -6 or -3 as some people have thought. At least on mine, I think that 0 gain is 0 gain.
Everything was on manual controls except for focus. During vows and some of the closeups I did use manual focus. Also did not do anything with the photogs flashes. To me I didn't even notice anything different unless I freeze frame. Iris was set on 4 and I think the video was all a bit on the dark side, so that should have been 3.5 or so, but there were windows everywhere. I did add quite a few effects to some of the video and some of the video I left alone. I have decided to remove the link to the link to the clip until I can figure out what happened to the quality when uploaded to my mac site. Sorry about this but the clip looks awful. Bruce |
Bruce, No offense, but honestly, I thought the black levels and color saturation were terrible. Even the exit signs were off color.

Thanks!
Hi Bruce, thanks heaps for sharing that.
I have my first full wedding tomorrow using the Z7... I'm quite nervous coming from many years using PD170/VX2000 combo. Clip was great but colours didn't seem to "pop" and some perhaps a little underexposed? In particular, crowd shot just before the kiss, baby with sucker. Final shot of the flowers/bible looks great colour and vibrancy - obviously given some FCP treatment? The drab church walls obviously didn't help and kind of muted things a little... plus the chief bridesmaid scared me a little... :) Overall - nice style - clean and simple editing, good use of slowmo mixed with realtime, good soundtrack... love it! I'll be shooting 1080/50i (pal) tomorrow to tape (CF card not arrived yet) Will post results next week... thanks again. |

Time you "upgraded" to a PC I think!!!!! :)
What about registering a Vimeo account for free and encoding/uploading in glorious HD? Here are the encoding specs: http://www.vimeo.com/help/hd |

Hey Bruce how long before you put the footage up
Is it possible to show us footage at church in slow-mo with flashes going off I hope i am not asking for to much Rob. |

Wow what a coincidence. I just finished setting up a smugmug account and the video looks much better. There is some slow motion I think when flashes are going off. Lemme know what you think. Again, this is not posted for a critique, but rather for people to check out the quality. Bruce |
