TRD Beholder DS1 and EC1 gimbals for Canon/Nikon DSLR
Just received mine and there are angles at which oscillations occurs (I've just tried my GH4 with 20mm Panasonic lens, a lightweight setup). 1. What is the software you are using to adjust PID/power settings (I've tried ***.basecamelectro…

@MikeLinn Liked it a lot! Nice work.

Good ideia! I'll see when I get my DS1, but I guess I should be able to balance my GH4 with 14-140mm without adicional weight.

That would be a DIY job. I guess I would add a thin base between DS1 and camera and then add the weights to the back of that base (custom made). A nicer idea would be TRD selling extended arms that would allow other setups. It's a shame that ba…

My point is you can *add* pure weight to the back so the whole set can be balanced. This is not ideal because it adds weight to the system but it may make possible other camera/ lens combinations not possible before.

I guess we can always add a little weight to the back of the camera... not ideal, but possible since DS1 should be able to handle the total weight. DS1 is a compact gimble, and compact means small... :)

My GH4 is waiting for this! Please, share your settings. I'm hoping to use the android app (via bluetooth).

Are there any DS1 out there, or they're just in pre-order fase?

FZ1000 does not support that in High Frame Rate mode (100-120fps). It does only P mode, without showing exposure settings... (GH4 shows those numbers in all modes...)

In my non-legit version I also find 80% zebra is, more or less, the same as 105% in other profiles (I use Natural) -> they both give me the "white point" (give or take a little). On safe side, I don't let the zebras came in, on a m…

Don't forget we are judging from a Youtube/Vimeo stream (not the original file).

I can confirm again, but my GH4 with 14-140 (new version) is only 860-870g (which is already above MS1 limit, but barely).

I would like to say that vimeo has introduced noise in the skies (particularly over Hilton), but I'm afraid that's only GH4 V-Log at it's best!

@matthere I think the answer seems to be more than just standard reply: they are accepting the fact that V-Log is not oriented to 8-bit, internal recorder, users. The "inconvenience" is rated @ $100 USD and time spent trying to make it …

@Vitaliy_Kiselev Yes, they are very good solving their costumers problems, unless they charge for it - them, things go a little slower... :) A free firmware that gives features for free, was *corrected* right away... A free app that gives access …

That causes camera to compensate recording more green, right? Then you take it down in post? As long as we don't saturate green channel... Maybe camera has assimetric color sensibility... That makes be remember the 1st Dolby analog noise dedu…

@tedbrah You may be wrong - the 8 bit is an indication of channel precision. An 8 bit YUV image, as an 8bit RGB, pixel is 32bit long (16.8M colors). Or else we would have 256 colors footages... kind of old computer games graphics. Another thing; i…

@balazer @rNeil Nice info. In theory, I understand what's going on... but shouldn't Panasonic know that? Could be that V-Log works very well in 10 bit but when Panasonic asks for $100 omits the fact we have to forget about internal (8…

@balazer Nice. One question: is V-Log-to-709 LUT the way to go to edit in Premiere Pro?

@endotoxic " After all its 8 bit compressed 4k what to expect if not some blokiness.???" You know there no relation in these two dimensions? 4k is a two dimension array, 8bit is a third dimension (I guess that's why is called "b…

Most strange, at least for me, is where it appears: in mids/highlights. @caveport Are you sure those pictures are 3200 ISO? Do you want to exchange your GH4 with mine? :) :)

I don't have enough technical knowledge about color, but the one thing keeps me trying V-Log is color... to my eyes color is just fantastic. I also see a green cast in Alexa LogC (easily compensated with some magenta) and the greens seems to h…

@Xenocide38 But only V-Log made it so apparent that now we are all looking at it! :( You can see this in my first picture, were both side of separation line have that magenta/cyan tint blocks but only in V-Log are disturbing. @joonas_t 1. Well, …

@joonas_t "... I think the banding/macroblocking issue might be caused by the lack of translation from Panasonic V-gamut to rec709 gamut ..." That should not be the problem as I use Panasonic's "VLog_to_V709_forV35_ver100.cube&…
