Vitor Delduque Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 Some parts of the metal frame around the candle seems to "teleport" a little bit, haha. Please pay a special atention to the seccond one from left to right that's out of focus, right at the beginning. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karim D. Ghantous Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 That is **(obscenity removed)** weird. It seems to happen to defocused parts of the frame only. It looks like diffraction except it isn't. I don't have any idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Mark Kenfield Posted September 25, 2022 Premium Member Share Posted September 25, 2022 I'd have pegged it for a LongGOP encoding artifact of some kind? What format did you record in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Phil Rhodes Posted September 25, 2022 Premium Member Share Posted September 25, 2022 You're not shooting through strange bits of glass, filters, etc? Looks optical to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I wasn't using or shooting through glass, filters, etc. I was testing a Cine Rokinon 50mm at T1.5, somewhere around 30cm (1ft) from the object. Despite this, the lens looks as it should. 7 hours ago, Mark Kenfield said: I'd have pegged it for a LongGOP encoding artifact of some kind? What format did you record in? Good one! I'm gonna try to get the effect again and if I do, I'll try All Intra next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vitor Delduque Posted September 25, 2022 Author Share Posted September 25, 2022 LongGOP doesn't seem to be the problem. Here's the All Intra test. On the other hand, it seems that the effect follows the background, specially the white chair and brighter objects. Back to diffraction? OBS: shutter speed, distance and fps don't change a thing.

M Joel W Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 (edited) https://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/111006/how-does-light-bend-around-my-finger-tip Quote This effect is caused by the background being (slightly) out of focus, and by the foreground object effectively occluding part of the camera/eye aperture, causing the effective aperture (and thus the resulting image) to be shifted. I've noticed while comparing blue screen composites with real images that a foreground object will distort the background and also make the background appear more in focus than it otherwise is because the foreground is working as an aperture somehow. Edit: except it seems to be the foreground that is acting strange for you? Try it at other apertures. I think it's optical but am not sure.

Edit: except it seems to be the foreground that is acting strange for you? Try it at other apertures. I think it's optical but am not sure. When I tested with the 35mm I started at the same distance I was with the 50mm (T1.5 also) cause I wanted to maintain the same "size relationship between foreground and background" (sorry.. what do we call this in english ??). The effect was almost imperceptible. So I tried again a little closer to the candle and the effect was back.. I think it was due to the DoF beeing closer to the one I had with the 50mm. This should add some credit to the article. I think that's it. Thanks very much for all the answers ? Feel free to add any ideas!
