I spent the last two weeks going over old footage with the intention to finally learn how color grading works, instead of just turning dials at random until something looks okay.

Shot in really dark conditions with a 5D MKIII and a Canon 50mm f1.8 STM. Most shots around ISO 1600 at 1920x960 48 or 60fps (did not know how to use the settings at the time really). Because it was a paid gig, I had the foresight to bring two very strong high CRI Zebralight led flashlights with diffusers in both warm and cool color temperatures. It made shooting possible in the conditions.

Converted to Alexa log via MLVAPP , exported as Prores 422HQ and then put into Resolve for curves adjustment. Denoised with Neatvideo. Did not use any presets, which I'm very proud of. I mostly relied on the curves adjustment tool.

I still don't really know how to stitch footage together in a cohesive way so that's the next thing I'm going to be working on.

Here is the before and after -

Using a Canon 5dmk3

Experimental 4k raw recording build with lossless compression

firmware 3.123

PixelFlash 1107x 64gb Supersport card

Loading modules crop_rec, mlv_lite, mlv_play, mlv_sound.

My card typical records between 90-100mb/s, but when I switch to the 50p/60p crop recording mode, the write speed drops to 63mb/s ish and stays there. If I try to record larger video it predictably stops recording within a few frames.

Is this a known issue? Am I doing something wrong?
