Really depends on your client. I'm a sports videographer. I film for first grade to Varsity. There is no one looking and noticing that it's not filmed in raw or S log.. the majority of people that would notice it is us the content creator. I shoot with a Sony a6400 and a Sony A7 Sii. Last year I decided to upgrade my lens to a Sony G Master f2.8 70-200 instead of a new camera. Told myself I would upgrade to a better camera this year but decided to go ahead and buy another a 6400 with the Sony G master f1.4 35mm. I shoot 1080 hundred megabits 120p and 4k. Now I am making more money than my 9-5. It comes down to camera skills lighting and editing if you can Master those you can make money.

In addition to flexibility and control over NR, one quirky advantage is that ProRes RAW is often faster to work with than the internal Sony codecs, avoiding the need for a proxy workflow for older PCs.

really great video! it might be interesting to do the same tests for the different internal compressions (I, S and HS)

I appreciate these tests thanks Josh. Every time I have decided I'm going to shoot raw I end up defaulting to an internal codec on almost every camera I've ever used. Most notably my C70 which obviously can do 12 bit raw internally at a more manageable file size than ProRes raw, but I never use it for paid work, only ever a couple of passion projects. It's kind of ironic but to my knowledge at least, most people who are shooting raw with more affordable camera offerings are doing it for the fun of it, not because it provides any tangible benefits to their professional lives. I bet I still end up messing around with raw again though, ha. That's life.

My finding on cameras within the past 4yrs is that when they have 10-bit LOG codecs with good bitrate, you really don’t need raw. The sensors are all running their ADC at 12-bit, and the LOG curve does an excellent job of holding that 12-bit sensor data within the 10-bit container without losing any info. Raw can look DIFFERENT, or have different color science, but on a pure technical level of data loss, there’s almost zero difference. If you always find yourself custom white balancing, maybe raw has a small advantage there, but I always treat my cameras like a film stock, and stick to either 3200 or 5600K.

Great video. Idk if my experience is helpful, but as a VFX artist, prores raw and footage without denoising in general is better for what I do. Integrating VFX and CG into footage is much easier when you can properly conform footage into aces simply because of the fact that there's more detail to work with. The in camera denoising is just low quality, there's posterization artifacts and as another commenter mentioned, there is also temporal denoising at higher isos. For most projects shooting raw on the fx3 isn't necessary, especially when there's no or minimal vfx, but on projects where there's time, budget and processing power to work with it, i think it should be used.

Exactly. I've done some light compositing with the internal codecs, and with some 12,800 ISO shots, the blobby noise reduction artifacts don't always look great with chroma keying and working with alpha channels and blending modes. I'd rather have a more uniform, sharper grain in that situation, or bring in a third party plug-in to deal with the grain. Also, that added little bit of sharpness does help with chroma keying when refining edges. Not a huge advantage, but every little bit helps.

Actually, regarding noise reduction, internal 12,800 iso does some bad temporal noise reduction that has ghosting and trails, at least on the A7S3. You can check this by recording at 12,800 with a high shutter speed to avoid motion blur in a dark scene and panning around. You'll see these artifacts, especially in dark areas. This makes it impossible to stabilize shots at second base iso with catalyst or motionflow. My solution is hooking up the ninja v in raw mode. It disables temporal noise reduction for the internal recording as well, even if the ninja is not recording. :)

You are correct in assuming it's full vs video But it's not a Sony issue In my testing prores is recorded incorrectly on Canon and Panasonic as well When recording prores the recorder doesn't know whether to save it as full or video, as far as I'm aware there is no metadata that tells the recorder to record it one way or the other, so you would have to actively enable the feature when shooting in log or know to interpret it correctly later Checking the Legalize option when shooting log can help, the issue is when recording on a device that doesn't have this option, or when working with older footage not recorded with the legalize feature Luckily you can just interpret the footage as full in your NLE

Hi! Thanks for the video. I wonder if it's expected by Sony to release a mirrorless camera that can internally record ProRes anytime in near future?

No need Atomos, no need prores raw HQ. I did many tests with and without the Atomos and I can say, everything is on the grading; The color science of the FX3 is fantastic! It's not the Atomos will bring more in the image, except the sharpest like you said because it's a 12-bits. For the color balance, can be adjust 100% same. Good work here! Thanks

first video that convinced me that prores raw is actually better!👍🏾

This comparison is what i was looking to see and everybody says you have more color information to work with on the prores raw. But nobody actually shows how far you can push the files till they fall apart in terms of color. That is actually what i want to know. Can you make an episode about heavy color correction comparing both file types? You only showed sooc files without any color adjustment and no film luts applied. I m having an anamorphic rig and because of many lens elements, the colors are way off on the chart. So i have to bring them back and the internal footage falls apart before applying any film lut. Will the prores raw save me ? And how much will help?

@errol3184

7 ай бұрын

You can definitely push further with ProRes RAW. The starting point isn't as good sometimes though. I noticed I could stabilize better in post than using ibis, active mode, lens stab and catalyst Browse combined, then hitting stab. Color detail is on another level but less accurate to start.

Much appreciated and comprehensive. I think i must have missed the point that prores raw locks you out of davinci. Apologies if i did. For social media work no one will notice the extra coloyr but they will notice the lack of sharpening and NR thta they see all the time from so t cameras on youtube posts. There is a reason why they are so popular for youtube. And the turnaround isn’t usually justified for raw if it isnt blackmagic and resolve native. For professional work and especially multi camera or multi source wb and the ability to nail colour to spec is often more important especially for colour sensitive client products. Also pushing the image in terms of grade and look isnt something most clients need but the use of film emulation’s definitely benefit from a higher bit depth and raw. With these sort of straightforward images the differences arent really being tested. When you shoot mixed source lights with multi cameras typically an a cam like an fx9 or fx6 then having a raw image to match and adjust is very useful. That said for most youtuber social media users it’s important not to underestimate how much the internal camera codec is doing to help out. NR sharpening and lens distortion are very good examples that people shooting sony especially underestimate. Again no surprises that the creator shot in raw but thats an 80 million dollar feature and not a 2 minute social media post. Horses for courses obviously. Thx for the continued excellent and thoughtful posts.

IDK what you're using to convert ProRes RAW, but for anyone curious in my experience the free converter tool that's on several app stores to convert to cDNG does not set metadata properly for colorspace conversions, as well as failing to include the correct 3x3 matrix metadata for white balancing. This results in slight hue shifts depending on the camera once the cDNG file is opened in Resolve. The tools that convert ProRes RAW correctly are Adobe (such as Media Encoder) and Assimilate (Play Pro Studio). After that, the cDNG or regular ProRes files you create will work and look better in Resolve.

Once you'd mentioned noise reduction I hoped you'd actually compare internal vs mannual

The difference in detail and color depth to me is 100% worth it for anything important, not to mention lack of compression artifacts - especially in chroma channels in All-I recordings. To compensate for the noise and lack of ISO control in RAW exposure, I recommend creating a couple additional LUTs that will pull the image 1 to 2 stops. I typically will monitor with such a LUT in either base ISO and feed the sensor a stop more of light, which kills the low end noise (or two stops for the 12,800 base, making it effectively ISO 3200). You just have to watch highlights and when in a contrasty environment (lots of windows for example) then just expose with your standard LUT.

@errol3184

I get exposure control in stops with premier. It's the same as iso and works the same as using the iso in raw tab in resolve. Ironically, resolve exposure doesn't feel like it works the same and it's more like a regular exposure tool. That's after transcoding to DNG. Catalyst Browse will let you change iso too in xavc. When exposure is perfect nothing beats DNG in Resolve in my opinion.

Yep. Adding contrast adds saturation and makes the image look sharper. I find it likely that matching levels would largely mitigate the difference. To me it looks like there's something fishy with the conversion. There should be no color difference whatsoever, if the conversion is done correctly. Or, it could be that the internal recordin's picture profile settings are not at "default" values, at least not the same "default" as the NLE assumes. Also, when people claim that they can get more info on RAW than on the internal log files, sure that can be true, technically speaking. Is it really true in practice, in real world color correction cases is a whole another question. Using 4 x the data rate to save pristine chroma noise is not my idea of smart.

I mean "fishy" as in the conversion is the very likely culprit for the differences, rather than the file formats themselves. The software we use is rarely perfect, and the cameras may not be doing the conversions exactly equal to what was specced by the manufacturer for the software vendors in practice. There are quite a lot of additional settings in Sony cameras' color profiles, which may differ from the defaults used by editing software. There definitely are also differences in how various software handle footage - starting from whether you see the actual full range in the file, or just the legal portion or Rec709. One can't really completely trust the editing software to work correctly. I do not own FX3, but I would actually be quite interested in comparing the original files from the camera myself, if you are willing to share a take or to, and share my results with you (and the rest of your audience, if you allow me to).

I know you don't have a FX3 but here is some additional information to help clarify. When shooting in Cine EI in the FX3 you can't make any adjustments to how the camera records the Slog3 information like you could adjust Slog3 with the older system of adjusting picture profiles. It is what it is. There aren't any of those full or legalize settings in the Ninja V when recording ProRes Raw either because you are recording raw. Using FCP and the built in decoding and LUTs is the most objective way I can observe and present the differences. Also FCP is a NLE that can handle ProRes Raw natively and it converts the raw footage into Slog, which I show in the video. So the differences you are seeing are the differences that we get.

The way you describe prores raw being more contrasty and more saturated leads me to believe your NLE is not interpreting the data levels correctly Make sure the prores files is being interpreted as a full data level and not a video data level This is a common, industry wide issue where the NLE doesn't know to interpret LOG prores as a full signal, resulting in the whites blowing out, the blacks crushing and the colors being too boosted This has also been in issue for as long as I've had the a7s1, Sony claimed it was an atomos problem, atomos claimed it was a Sony problem Gerald undone got it wrong by saying it was a Sony problem (I 1000% believe that and would be willing to prove it) Atomos added the ability to record in a full data level "Legalize" which fixes the issue, this is what they should have done years ago and just shows it was always a problem on their end (to be fair, there is an inability to flag log footage when recorded externally to be saved as a full level) Note though that Legalize records the image in a full data level right out of camera, so switching a clip shot in full data level to full data level would give unintended results

The external raw is recorded as 12 bit ProRes Raw. I explain it in this video: kzread.info/dash/bejne/Yo6lrJZvfJqTZ5c.html

CGI, AI special effects will work better with raw files.

All these influencers speaking like they are professional colorist and will be fixing stuff in post.
