Thank you all for your very good advices!
Q: Is it the same thing? How does it work?
Again, thank you all a lot!

We will see...
Sounds like a lot of work, especially when there is lots of out of focus stuff in the foreground.

What software are you using for post process, or what is your workflow ?
Quote from: Levas on August 06, 2019, 09:13:41 PMDamn good!!! Thanks a lot for this trick!
Another thing or 'trick' to consider, cut and lift the shadows, so all noisy dark parts of the frame become a noise free grey color.
Quote from: Kharak on August 06, 2019, 09:26:16 PMEh... Not bad indeed! I'll try surely!
i say buy a pair of cheap LED construction lights, add diffuse filters and gain +2 stops of light for your scene. Also buy some tiny LED flashlights and place them behind objects in the scene with some diffuse on and you can "fake" more light in the scene.

So, if I correctly understand, 1920X1080 gives me less noise thanks to the interpolation? (Honestly I tried this evening to shoot a semi-dark room both in 16:9 and 5:3, and the result was actually pretty similar...)
i believe that 3x3 readout has a cleaner output because of the interpolation, but slightly unsharper.
Quote from: Kharak on August 06, 2019, 09:26:16 PMMy English is very poor... "Stick to" means "don't touch"? (Again, I must be an idiot...) I've always keep FPS override activated, for all my shots... But always keeping the same fps ("exact") value of the Canon menu (25). Is it possible that I've made my shots worse somehow?
And stick to fps override and shutter fine tuning, always.

Edit: also look in to mlv app's Darkframe subtraction, it does wonders when you go >1600 iso

Quote from: KirbyLikes525 on August 06, 2019, 09:46:01 PMSo, if I correctly understand, I could anyway take my shots in RAW and then converting them in Prores only when I find some out-of-gamut artifacts (like too much noise). Or this operation must be done in-camera?
The color profile tells the raw what the range of color values to use and the noise is colors that are out of gamut
Again, thank you all a lot!
