Dance Video EX1 with HM100 as B camera at DVinfo.net

I did a quick multi- camera edit of HM100 and EX1 footage of a dance performance. One can see the rolling shutter of the EX1 during camera flashes. Overall, I think the HM100 and EX1 combo is a good combination.

I'm guessing that was from a couple of performances because I saw more than 2 angles being used closely together. Unless you were running back and forth pretty quick? The HM100 being the wide shot? I thought just based on how it looks online, the wide shot was a little soft looking compared to the close up. But it seemed to match. Did you use any color correction in post?

The wide shot is actually the EX1 and the closeups the HM100. To be fair though, the EX1 was at zero gain with 1.9 aperture and on autofocus so their was a little hunting, not to bad though, original clips look better than compressed for web for sure. The HM100 was set to full auto. One thing you must do is turn down the sharpening on the HM100, these were at -7. You are correct, two performances. No individual color correction, entire sequence was ran through MB looks. Biggest thing to get the to match was manually setting the WB on the EX1 to match the HM100. 2nd day shooting was a much better match.
