I just think they should have put those specs in a C300 body.
now, the C500, looks really nice. nicely nicely.

No false modesty with those folks. Geez.

Nice equipment, though. I guess.

The D800 might be sharper... but the 5D3 literally blows it our of the water with its high ISO capabilities:

At lower ISOs there seems to be ISO inaccuracies and/or metering problems. Was the exposure the same with all cameras at each ISO?

I've noticed that when setting the EV to 0 for any given shot between the two cameras, the 5D3 always underexposed, and the D800 always overexposed the shot.

Thanks! There will be a final product. Just didn't want to spend more than 5 min sampling some clips.

[rodi]

so, this promo is a bit long, but they wanted to somehow show the full 16-station retread process in a time that i advised should be 60 seconds. their reference video was some 9-minute long bore narrated onscreen by some tard. i tried to fit it into 120 seconds, but it wouldn't happen.

[Chewy734]

awesome video rodi! How long did it take you to shoot and edit it?

[M_Six]

Nicely done, rodi. Now you need a video of the retread flying apart and smacking a BMW in the windshield.

(Happened to me.)

[rodi]

thanks guys.

the shoot was 3 and half hours. i think the first edit session was about three hours. i then revisited it a few times to polish it up. not sure of total time, sorry. i never really keep track. :\

[rodi]

oh, and the motion tracking on that blank truck door for the digital logo took at least two hours itself. frame-by-frame tracking of a featureless white door.

[Chewy734]

impressive... I hope you got paid well.

[rodi]

thanks. i think so.
