AG HPX 500 Test Footage

Great lighting, I'm guessing this is not DOF Lens adapter compatible?

Thanks for the insights. Did you crush the blacks as far down as -15 in master ped? Or more? Also, does YouTube compress for you, or how did you set your compression?

How did you get rid of the noise problem in the darks that keeps happening with the hpx 500?

@milespug Wish I had the magic bullet answer for you. Unfortunately, the noise is still there, although it's masked by some post softening of the image, crushed blacks, and youtube compression. I wanted to throw the shadows to a deep black, so there's actually quite a bit of separation between the shadows and mids, as well. The 500 is still an ENG camera....although I've yet see it perform with the DigiPrimes or a DOF converter and master primes.

Thanks for showing that. I was curious to see the dof of a 2/3 inch vs my 7D. You can get a pretty good 35mm look if you shoot carefully apparently.

Good work; thanks for the creative Pana 500 test footage. I will probably be getting a Canon lens instead of Fuji.

Are you using the stock lense for this?

[elephantman1228]

@EGPcinematographer used a stock XA17x7.6BRM by Fujinon. Open with ND filters and all shots are somewhat telephoto.

Great job! You have a great sense of lighting. Keep up the good work

[fbordez]

@ChambersProduction You're right. That's great lighting!

[Pirulo3]

What kind of lens are you using?
