Adding some more hidden places.

Kevin - are you sure that the upload is okay? Your videos looks very unsharp and extremelly compressed.

Re: Amsterdam
 

They look OK played on my laptop in the UK...

Hmmm. Look at this. Where are the details?
What lenses did you use? It looks, like the left size of the picture use to be softened by wide angle.
I added just a little saturation to the night scene - to show how much noise and compression artefacts are there.
Maybe is you output editing format too compressed? Colors are very on the "warmish" side. On the attached pic i did just correct colors to make the snow white - an i think it makes a big difference.
A7s delivers so much sharpness and details - i do not understand why not on your films.

Thanks for your comments. I agree the night time pix do have more noise than I would like. I haven't really found a setting which has barely any at night. Out of the 3 shots at the ice rink the other two have whiter ice. I'm not sure why there's a difference as they were filmed within a few minutes of each other.
I've been using a setting from another forum that has found favour with others. I'll have another look.

Re: Amsterdam
 

They look soft and noisy for me too. Are you shooting XAVC or one of the other codecs?

Re: Amsterdam
 

The footage looks soft to me also. If it looks good on you timeline it might be how you encoded it (codec and bitrate) for Vimeo upload.

Re: Amsterdam
 

XAVC and I uploaded to You Tube at 1080 at the supposed better quality setting rather than faster encode.

I've been having a problem or two with my laptop, so I think the two things may be connected...
