I haven't done one of those in a long time. The kids are all still just as into climbing but I just didn't have the time anymore to put into making the videos.

However, one of the parents of a climber decided to build a pretty spectacular American Ninja Warrior course in his backyard. Here is what opening day looked like.

This was filmed with the GoPro Hero5 Black and the Panasonic LX100. Most of it is UHD/4K @ 30 FPS or 2.7k @ 60 FPS. However, some clips were 1080p @ 120 FPS converted to UHD/4K @ 60 FPS. There is one 720p @ 240 FPS clip for the super slow motion. The compression artifacts are terrible but 240 FPS is really cool for slow motion.

If you have any questions about the GoPro 5 please let me know. I know it doesn't look that much better than the Hero4. However, it still is a fabulous camera for what it is designed to do and its price is actually quite reasonable.

There is no color grading done at all. This is footage straight out of the camera pieced together and sometimes slowed down or sped up. No other changes except for just a little general sharpening throughout the video. This is the first 4K @ 60 FPS video I have done for youtube. I don't have the ability to make HDR videos yet. However, I am really impressed with the true HDR videos youtube now has.

New GH2 Beauty film. https://www.personal-view.com/talks/discussion/6661/new-gh2-beauty-film. Wed, 10 Apr 2013 14:45:34 +0000 endotoxic 6661@/talks/discussions Cinema like light handling...but vimeo compression make bad move on me.

GH2 when properly exposed handles like a champ.

2 GH2 cameras

Rokinon cine lenses:

  • 14mm T3.1,
  • 25mm T1.5,
  • 35mm T1.5,
  • 85mm T1.5

Shutter speed 40 "magic trick on cadence"

Profile: smooth -2,-2,-0,-2

The trick here is to underexpose the camera and use proper ND filters. New patches allow to handle good recovery on gamma curves. I think the cadence also improves when shutter is at 40.

Im no pro color corrector, so some shots are not well balanced.

FS: Iscomorphot 8/1,5X - Isco-Göttingen Anamorphic lens! https://www.personal-view.com/talks/discussion/11125/fs-iscomorphot-815x-isco-goettingen-anamorphic-lens Tue, 26 Aug 2014 09:52:25 +0000 JCVD 11125@/talks/discussions Hello guys!

Up for sale this VERY RARE Iscomorphot 8/1,5X - Isco-Göttingen Anamorphic lens!

The lens is quite old, regarding this, it is in very good condition. It doesn't have scratches, haze or fungus, it only has coating marks on the front and rear elements. It looks scrary on the photos, but it is only coating and not a deep scratch, sometimes this happens with coatings on 40-50 years old german lenses. I never ever noticed any quality loss.

Since this is a very rare lens, the asking price is 1500 USD (I can accept EURO also). I am opened for offers too, so please PM me!

I am in the European Union, between EU member countries there is not costum duty tax! I ship worldwide!

I hope to be able to afford a GH4 after I sold this. :)

All the best to you guys!

Lightroom 5 preset bug simple workaround https://www.personal-view.com/talks/discussion/10410/lightroom-5-preset-bug-simple-workaround Mon, 19 May 2014 15:11:10 +0000 maxr 10410@/talks/discussions Some LR 5 users, myself included, have reported a huge slowdown while just going through a preview of the photos in the library module; still present in version 5.4 (Mavericks 10.9.3)
It seems it's a bug related with big amounts of develop presets. So, till almighty sloppy dog adobeeee decides to fix this bug, a workaround is to (please archive first) delete as many as possible. I confirm this is the case. Don't expect miracles, but performance wise you'll notice an increase right away.


Some Windows users had same bug showing differently, when trying to undo, LR applied a preset instead.
SAME WORKAROUND in those cases too =)


Little rant, sorry if you're dating an adobe employee :P

I've been a LR user since version 1 and I don't really know what's going on with the preset indexing or the previewing of images, but since LR 4 it's an awful mess making zero difference being the catalog big or small. That said I’m tired to be continously forced to do things out of my pace and to upgrade / update and find fixings for what seems the pandora box of bugs. For me Lightroom has become very very inefficient, as much as I like grampas, you'll raise hell on earth if you put a 95 year old pot lover directing air traffic at the control tower of a major airport. This is how I feel these days working with LR.

Mavericks doesn't help and neither disabling compressed memory (´sudo nvram boot-args=”vm_compressor=1″´) – actually worsen results – neither purging the memory (´sudo purge´) have had any palpable improvements. So as much I dislike the idea of having yet another step in the process, I started to seriously test Photo Mechanic (which is like the Millenium Falcon to public transportation) and Darktable 1.4.2 (free) as folder based raw image viewers. It has come to a point where I admit that if I hadn’t +35K photos catalogued with LR I’ll switch to other platform… there are certainly better colour engines out there, specially for µFT raws ,-)

That's all folks, viva la amistad!!

GH2 holding its ground with Epic https://www.personal-view.com/talks/discussion/4999/gh2-holding-its-ground-with-epic Fri, 26 Oct 2012 11:49:04 +0000 ronmen 4999@/talks/discussions Hey guys, just thought you'd like to see some spots we shot on a Red Epic with a $40,000 Arri Alura 15.5 - 45mm lens and a GH2 with the Sanity 5 patch and a $100 Canon 85mm FD SSC prime lens. These are fairly low res files for web delivery but the high res footage looked great too. Here are the four spots:

The Epic was used for the wide and medium shots, the GH2 was used for the CU cutaways on the face and hands. I think the footage cuts very well. 'Just goes to show that you don't need to spend $100K on a camera package to get very nice results.
