Canon C70 Low Light Test - Shibuya After Dark

Описание: With Canon's new C70 firmware update, I wanted to test the low light capabilities of the RAW LT codec. I shot tests from late afternoon until evening and was very happy with the results.

I found that the XF-AVC all Intra codec was actually very similar in what it could handle, but I think the ease and flexibility in post is where the codec shines. Having the ability to adjust the ISO, sharpness and other parameters within the camera raw tab in Davinci made the grading process way easier.

If you are interested in seeing a comparison explanation, please post in the comments and maybe I can find the time to make another video about it.

The video was shot on sticks with the following lenses.

____Lens____
ZEISS 50MM at F2.8 (00:00 - 01:30)
ZEISS 100MM at F2.8 (01:30 - 03:21)

____Location____
Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan.

____Camera settings____
ISO 800-3200

____Support____

____Post-production____

Color science: DaVinci YRGB (using Color Managed disables raw tabs)
Timeline color space: DaVinci WG/intermediate
Input Color Space: BT2020 Canon Log 2 BT709 WIDE DR
Output color space: Rec 709 gamma 2.4
Color grade: adjusted exposure using ISO, dropped highlights, +5 sharpness. No color adjustments

I hope this test is useful to people. Leave any questions you have in the comments : D
