Vision 3, 250D

[Chris Lange]

So, I'm having a hard time finding out the differences between Vision 2 250D and Vision 3 250D...What are you gaining and/or losing with the new Vision 3? I'm considering Vision 3 for a student film, but Vision 2 will be cheaper for me. Has anyone done a side by side comparison?

 

Thanks,

Chris

Personally I haven't shot with it myself, but from what I read it has similar changes as 5219. Higher latitude in the highlights and a tighter grain structure. I suppose it would be more "forgiving" for hot spots you might find in frame or in low key lighting. Recently I worked on a commercial which used 5207 and the dailies looked really tight. Personally I can't wait to try it out for myself.

 

Really though, you should test out both stocks first, if your budget allows, and see which one you like best.

 

Hope that helps,
