Low contrast or Dark cinematography
Ignacio Aguilar replied to Bineesh Viswam's topic in General Discussion
I've done this for dark, moody situations a lot of times. Even if I want them to look really dark, I've overexposed by two stops, so that in case they want to raise them later in post, there's even more latitude to do that. It has worked for me with RAW recordings with Alexas and Reds. -
Yes, I have two different sets. One has 1 TX / 1 RX and the other has 1TX / 2 RX. Get in touch via email if you're interested. Regards

1/8 Black Promist is a workhorse, you can't really go wrong with it. I use it a lot to make modern lenses have more feeling (slight halation) and to take of the edge of sharpness. If you just want to lower the apparent resolution, you may want to try something like a 1/2 Soft FX, which is another workhorse. It's light enough to remain unnoticed and, if you like the effect, you can always go to the 1/4 or 1# strenghts to adjust it to your taste. You may also like Glimmerglass (the 1/2# or 1# are quite like the 1/8 BPM in effect) though it's a more evident filter effect than BPM. Some people also like Pearlescent for this purposes, but I'm not keen of it. Others like Black Diffusion FX, it's a rather interesting but not so well known filter. You may want to have a look at Tiffen's Triangle of Diffusion: And this excellent filter test by Stephen Murphy BSC: But always, test, test, test...

Exactly. I would try to test the lenses at different t/stops to try to notice the different performance wide open vs. stopped down, how they reproduce skin tones and different colors, how many optical aberrations show up when wide open, or how sharp they are at the intended shooting stop. I would also try to shoot in different lighting conditions, and use direct sources against the glass, or very bright sources on the frame, etc. to see how contrast is affected by them. With the Canons you may want to test all the different focal lenghts to see if they match each other, etc. as older lenses tend to be in worse shape and some of them didn't match at all even when they were new. But after all, it's all up to what you're trying to achieve, and your own taste. Bear in mind you may find both sets of Supremes quite sharp and contrasty (with the Radiance more prone to catch flares and veiling) while the Canon K35's are much older lenses with a distinct soft look and not so good performance below a T/2.0 or so.
