Recently I have been hired to shoot a feature for festival and dvd release. My
question is when faced with the overwhelming amount of options and settings on
my DVX 100a, should I use the in camera settings or shoot more neutral and let those decisions be chosen in post. For example I could choose to set scence file 6, then the gamma settings , normal or cine like d, color matrix, peds etc..
Would'nt setting the camera to the more neutral normal ranges seem a better choice? A master thats not very in camera processed just seems to be to be a better master to hand the clients and editor, since they may have more options to work with than if I say do in camera coloring and film look processing and they don't like the look or can't go back to a more neutral base to tweak or work with.
