Title: 5d3 3k super sharp video
Post by: 70MM13 on March 12, 2023, 01:22:31 PM
with the renewed debate about 3k, i decided to shoot my latest forest video in 3k, utilizing resolve's superscaling algorithm to bring it up to 4k using 4X upscaling:

must view at 4k to see it correctly!  check out the incredible smoothness of the razor sharp spider webs that are clipping in the sunlight...

here's those frames:

the frame with the sunlit cut log showcases how well mlvapp handles highlight reconstruction when only one channel is clipped.  i intentionally clipped the red channel on this shot to get enough of the dark scene at the beginning of the shot.

all that is required to correct it in mlvapp is to enable highlight reconstruction and then pull back the highlights just enough to get red of the clipping on the red channel in the histogram, and suddenly you can see the nice detail in the sunlit surface of the cut log, with no pink highlights.

it was a lot harder to do this in resolve!

Try this settings in Resolve to recover highlights, it is much easier when using the BlackMagic Design Film gamma:
