Jerry Doran Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 If you were shooting 4:4:4 and wanted to do on-set color correction, which camera is preferable, the F23 or the Viper (shooting in RGB mode)? What are the advantages of each? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Krumlauf Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 I would like to dig up this old post and actually find an answer to it. Which camera has the better color repo. and DR on a technical level, the Viper or F23. I understand more films were shot on the viper but the viper had a longer street life than the F23 as the F23 was replaced by the F35 fairly quickly, so people ignored the 23.

Premium Member David Mullen ASC Posted January 24, 2020 Premium Member Share Posted January 24, 2020 I think the Sony F23 allowed 444 Sony Log output to an external recorder, which would make it similar to the Viper output and quality in theory.

Premium Member Phil Rhodes Posted January 25, 2020 Premium Member Share Posted January 25, 2020 I don't know enough about F23 to directly compare, but I've always felt Viper has very, very nice colour under the right conditions. It had a very minimal processing scheme that can be thought of as being fairly close to raw, it has that nice multi-subpixel sensor (block).
