I'm shooting a music video in a few weeks in the cornfields of Michigan, and I'm wondering if i could get some stock advice from the experts out there.
I'm shooting on 16 and am trying to decide between Kodak's 50D and 100T stocks. Although the 50D is an excellent stock, I've noticed considerable grain in the highlights. Also, I've noticed the greens being slightly too saturated for my tastes, and I'm worried about the latitude I'd have in color correction.
I like what I've seen from 100T, but I've never put an 85 in front of it so I'm a little worried about how the colors hold up. Also, I've never shot it under direct sunlight, so I'm not sure if the grainy highlights I've experienced in the 50D would be present in the 100T as well.
I'm looking for a pretty natural look. I really want my earth-tones to pop, and as little grain as possible in the sky.
Do any of you have any experience shooting 100T for daylight? Any advice in general about what stock you think would suit my needs?
Thanks!
