This weekend I tried to shoot video for the first time and the results are both interesting and mixed. As an example I tried to do some narrow depth-of-field effects as shown in the video below... (mute the audio!!)
...however the result is a bit mucky. The parts that are out of focus are severly "blocky" and generally poorly displayed. I'm now trying to understand where and when this happens or if maybe this type of composition is not 'possible' technically.
My next attempt at this will be to use a different color profile to capture more detail in shadows. As shown before - the color profiles affect the algorithm for the video codec. Recently a new profile was released after one year of development, the Cinestyle by Technicolor.
The effect of this profile is clearly shown in the video below - just look at the immense difference in detail in the shaded areas between the different profiles:
Anyway - back to experimenting!
