To me the two most noticeable improvements in the FX9 are noise and color. It improves the sensitivity with less noise in the shadows and also changes the colorimetry. The changes in the RD do not

Cynthia. I think we need to be realistic about differences and improvements between cameras. Most of the current cameras are capable of producing great images. Sensor technology is not significantly

I too am very interested in this thread. I've been shooting with FS7 Cameras for a few years and just finished shooting a feature using FX9 Cameras for the first time. The budget didn't allow for Sony

Hi again Alfonso. Sony’s logic when designing their cameras and determining base ISO appears to be based on finding the sensors clip point and working down from there. So where you have a 460% curve

Thank you very much Alister for the clarification, I will try to compare the curves with that ISO value and see what it turns out. Alfonso Parra ADFC www.alfonsoparra.com Tel Colombia 57 311

The base ISO’s for S-Cinetone on the FX9 are 320 and 1600. This is of course also 0dB. 0dB is virtually always the native ISO, so to discover the cameras native ISO if it has a dB mode, switch to

We decided to use the dual ISO base settings​​for all the curves and thus be able to compare them to the same ISO value, inthis case with the cinetone curve we use 800 as for the Slog3 curve so

I’m curios Alfonso as to why the S-Cinetone tests were all done with +7dB of gain added? My own testing indicates that adding gain to the S-Cinetone curve reduces the highlight range, results in

Dear colleagues, we have published our review of the Sony FX9 camera on the IMAGO website. We hope it is of interest to

This camera has a global shutter. I suspect the camera was still warming up and it needed a fresh black shading. High frame rate systems are a bit more finicky about such things, even the best of

Looks like a rolling shutter. Jeff Kreines Kinetta jeff@... kinetta.com Sent from iPhone.

To add to Bob Kertesz’s cogent post, the phenomenon whereby the color of objects that appear to the eye to be the same, but are rendered differently to different sensors or under different lighting,

Yes, if there's actual IR present. Even when subtle (and depending on the camera/lens/sensor), the changed blacks are the first thing I notice when IR is present, as they usually tend to go a
