HDR Video Demonstration Using Two Canon 5D mark II's

This video highlights several clips we've made using our new High Dynamic Range (HDR) process. Video is captured on two Canon 5D mark II DSLRs, each capturing the exact same subject via a beam splitter. The cameras are configured so that they record different exposure values, e.g., one camera is overexposed, the other underexposed. After the footage has been recorded, we use a variety of HDR processing tools to combine the video from the two cameras, yielding the clips you see above.

HDR Video provides filmmakers with many exciting new opportunities. Not only can HDR video create interesting effects, it can also allow for even exposure where artificial lighting is unavailable or impractical. For example, when a subject is backlit, one camera could be set to properly expose the subject, the other the sky, resulting in video with perfect exposure throughout.

We will continue to develop and improve the HDR video process for better results and efficiency. For more information, check out our website sovietmontage.com.

You can also use Magic Lantern for Canon cameras. Its a custom firmware hack that allows for HDR video on ONE camera.

this is bloody amazing



[catnipblossom]

use a cheap 2 sided mirror ($6). 2 similar cameras. same shutter speed, same aperture. Make sure they are lined up (use a cheap video channel mixer onto one monitor...opacity). Use ND filter on one of them ( don't use a different aperture...it would change the depth of field and create blotches in post)...You can sync the cameras using a cheap wired remote control. use photomatix batch encode to get the effect desired. Photoshop CS5 sucks, there is no batch encode for "merge to hDR" .
