"DVXLOOK" + Brevis35 Grabs at DVinfo.net

Dennis Wood · February 9th, 2007, 08:15 PM

Playing in the shop last night with presets and shot these in 1080i, Brevis with CF3, and Minolta 50mm at f1.4. The face shot (not mine!) was illuminated by a 25 watt CF bulb. These are grabbed from VLC viewing the MPEG capture and are not deinterlaced....warts and all. I am becoming a huge fan of the A1...and props to the author of the "DVXMATCH" preset.

Full resolution pics: 1 , 2

Looks fabulous, Dennis. Full rez footage if you please.... :)

Barlow Elton · February 9th, 2007, 11:52 PM

I'll second that. :)

Steven Dempsey · February 10th, 2007, 12:20 AM

I'll third that....oh, wait...

By the way Dennis, where did you get the preset? I don't see it in the preset area of this site. There's a DVXMatch....but no DVXLook

Dennis Wood · February 10th, 2007, 12:59 AM

Woops...fixed that...it's the DVXMATCH preset!

these are the best grabs i ever saw for the Brevis35 WOOW,
subject of interest is damn sharp, WOOW

'am really dying to see 20mm open wide shot over a tilting camera!!!
excellent job "Dennis" :)

Here are a few seconds of the "face" clip. It's 195MB, 1080i which I've flipped in PP2, and output to motion jpeg mov format. This is a new host, so hopefully the file serves up OK.

Let me know what you guys think.

Dennis, it looks really nice but I have to say, in my experience, most of the better adapters look good when they are focussing closely on a subject. The real test of how well an adapter does is in wider shots and how distant objects get resolved.

Basically what I'm saying is that I have lots of Letus footage that looks as good as this. Show us what this thing is capable of.

I'm just sayin'

:)

Plenty more to come...as soon is it warms up. We've averaged -20C to -32C for a solid two weeks now :-)

Hey Dennis, do you have any more of this footage. It looks really amazing.

Dennis Wood · March 16th, 2007, 10:11 AM
