Best settings for iridient x transformer movie#

I have to work quickly and quietly, in a perfect world be neither seen nor heard and shooting as much as possible while the scenes are being filmed and the movie camera is rolling. In a world where it’s not unusual for a production to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on a day’s shooting, time really is money.

Best settings for iridient x transformer update#

Accordingly I am unable to include any images taken on set with the X-H1 at this time, but will update here as they become available. With all Unit Stills work there is an embargo on the releasing of imagery prior to the production being released or promoted. If I like a aspect of the camera I will say so, if I don’t, I will also say so. I do have a relationship with Fujifilm Australia formed over the three years I have been shooting with the Fujifilm X Camera System but that’s it. I am not paid, I am not a Fuji Ambassador. (If not you can follow this link to the Fujifilm Global site where I have set the comparison up for you.)īefore I begin it’s important for me to state that I use Fuji Cameras for no other reason than they do the job well. You can, and probably have already pursued those online. I won’t be going into all the technical differences between the Fujifilm X-H1, it’s predecessor, the X-T2 and how it compares to the X-T3. I will cover the positives and a few negatives in using the camera on set over the last four months.

Best settings for iridient x transformer tv#

This review based on my use of the Fujifilm X-H1 in my role as a Unit Still Photographer working on Film and TV drama. It hurts my eyes and I am therefore staying with ACR.Ĭontinued in the next post.This guest Fujifilm X-H1 review is by Unit Still Photographer John Platt. My final choice on this basis would be either ACR or SilkiPix but the font size in SilkiPix is fixed and is quite small. Feel free to download these to do the same. This allowed me to flick through them in turn and detect any differences as each image was replaced by the next. I compared them by opening all three in PS and enlarging them to 200% and then registering each of them with the top left hand corner of my work area on the screen. DNG file with the original and the reduction in IQ seems to have been produced at that stage rather than the subsequent conversion to the final. I went back and compared the Iridient produced. Interestingly, the much vaunted Iridient converter is the worst performer and shows a noticeable reduction in image quality. SilkyPix and ACR seem to me to produce the same level of definition but SilkyPix introduces some additional colour contrast. The first thing to say about the resulting files is that to my aging eyes, there is very little difference between the three converters.

The final uploaded JPGs were produced in Photoshop at a size of 1400 x 933pixels. Sharpening was set at zero in all three Apps. In the case of Iridient of course, the initial result was a. The resulting saved image was the then converted to a TIF image using ACR, SilkiPix and Iridient. Raf file and crop out a 2194 x 1463 pixels (same 6x4 ratio) portion to isolate the leaves. My approach has been to take a 6000 x 4000 pixels. The same might also apply to ADOBE's DNG converter. It would have been interesting to have included it in the comparison. Sadly, I don't possess a copy of Capture 1.

All three Apps have since gone through a number of iterations and so I was interested to see how they compared today.

Best settings for iridient x transformer series#

The SilkiPix app of course has always been around since the X series cameras were launched. That resulted in Apps like Iridient X transformer coming onto the market. The demosaicking problem was solved fairly quickly but the criticism of poor detail rendering persisted for a while. When it eventually did so, the files produced were criticised for weak demosaicking and for producing a soft mushy rendering of detail such as leaves. Raf files within its Photoshop/Lightroom capabilities. When the X series of Fuji cameras were first launched, ADOBE was a bit slow in getting together with Fuji in order to include.
