Ryan Thomas Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 When you were on set, did you see that all the information was contained inside of the histogram? Or did you have two mountains at both the far ends? I could understand outdoors being a bit of a problem, but how contrasty were things inside? I think even if you know that you're going to go for that contrasty look in the end, you have to make sure that you shoot for the latitude that the camera is giving you, then tweak in post.

Premium Member Chris Keth Posted September 16, 2009 Premium Member Share Posted September 16, 2009 Can you post a still (a still with histogram would be ideal) or describe the problem in better detail? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Giambrone Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Can you post a still (a still with histogram would be ideal) or describe the problem in better detail? Yeah, several stills or some motion footage at a the min. What ISO did you shoot? What ISO did you render? Any filters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Hal Smith Posted September 26, 2009 Premium Member Share Posted September 26, 2009 Having shot 16mm in Rajasthan I can relate that the sun there is incredibly hot with very deep shadows. I used 16mm reversal for simplicity which was not a good idea as it turned out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Rogers Posted September 29, 2009 Share Posted September 29, 2009 What are you looking at your footage in? If you are in just the Quicktime player looking at proxies, then you haven't seen what the camera actually recorded. Of course, you could have also exposed the camera improperly.
