Rudi Siira Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Just wondering if anyone has shot HDV with Cineframe25 then downconverted over firewire into DV. Can this produce progressive SD images or should I downconvert in post? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Sandstrom Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 interesting question. shooting sd with cineframe25 does indeed produce true progressive images with this camera. shooting hd and downconverting will most likely produce a slightly softer result since the image will be processed twice, while it will obviously still be progressive. please let us know if you shoot a test. i haven't and i don't have access to this camera right now. /matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Tamura Posted September 5, 2006 Share Posted September 5, 2006 A little off topic, a little on, I recently photographed a music video in SD using the cineframe30 -- I shot some tests and liked the motion rendering much better then the cine25. viewing the captured image I did feel it was a bit softer then what I was seeing on set. I'm assuming it's the in-camera SD processing, and since it's down converting an HD image I would assume that down converting during capture would render the same results. I am very happy with the shoot - if the editor had the capability to down convert I would have preferred to shoot HD, but a job's a job. I would assume the cineframe30 is interlaced, but not sure?
