I have been playing around with CP files for the Canon XF100 lately. I wanted to try out some of the "BBC Settings" to experiment. I came across this site:

CP files for Canon XF Cameras in "Canon XF Video" on Vimeo (http://vimeo.com/groups/canonxf/forum/topic:230636)

(Also linked in one of the threads here). My understanding is that the person who created these CP files did so for the XF300, and then adapted them to the XF100.

I tried using the TruVid (CP1) and it looks pretty good, but the noise is very high for indoor situations which I primarily find myself shooting. I am getting ready to do a wedding with the XF100 in a few weeks (for the first time w/ this cam.. but using my old JVC as a b-roll cam). I was wondering if anyone has had success using the specific settings, and what (if anything) they changed for low light conditions.

Thanks,
Greg

I found this thread that seems to have some good suggestions for wedding with BBC settings, so I'm going to try and experiment with the custom profiles here. I think it may be what I'm looking for.

If anyone has other suggestions I'd love to hear them!

Thanks,
