Hi there, thanks for your skill & lesson in getting the best out of Sony cams, the dream neg profile has a **** load of noise, is that normal & also I do notice there being a little noise in others.
Is this the desired look? If so it feels kind of a messy grain on not filmic so much, is there something I'm doing wrong?
Thanks
Hei, can you include some sample images so we can see what you are referring to?
The DreamNeg is based on either Cine1 or Cine4, Your choice depending what Image tonality you'd like for your shots, but the major difference is that Cine1 is made for lowlight with creamy soft contrast, while cine4 is punchy, has slightly more dynamic range and will be noticeable nosier.
It's also important to check what is your internal Noise Reduction set to, I set mine to atleast Low, sometimes to Normal, depending how much I want the camera to short out the noise.
So with the DreamNeg set on Cine1, Noise reduction set to Normal, it looks good on my RX100 VI which has an 1 inch sensor, even at 1600-3200 ISO, so bigger sensors should be clean. Would like to see what you are getting on your side, and please mention your camera model, that would be very helpful. Thanks!
