Made this video to document the day the second lockdown lasting 112 days is finally getting lifted.
Celebration of a joy of simple things in life, like spending more than 1h outside and finally being able to see friend (incl. those living more than 5k away).

Filmed with 5Dmk3,
3072x 1320, upscaled to 4K.
200-800 ISO, 23.976fps, 1/50 shutter speed
Canon 70-200 f2.8 + TC 2x
Canon 16-35 f4

Processed in Davinci Resolve 16 via MLVFS
Color grading: DCI-P3 Fujifilm 3513DI D60 LUT at 30% opacity (still contemplating whether I like version with the the LUT or softer and more vibrant original colours).
Raw setting: Color Space Rec.709, Gamma sRGB, minor tweaks in exposure, highlights and shadows
no sharpening or noise reduction added in post.

EDIT: Uploaded version with added sharpening as suggest be a few here. Thanks for pointing this out. It does make a visible difference. (plus highlight recovery setting I forgot to use in a few scenes, like the sunset one)



for reference older version without sharpening (or rather with default 10% in raw processing in Resolve).

Been craving for AF in video for a while and once I saw what firmware 1.4 for EOS R can do and recent discounts I made a jump. I got quite good with manual focus but filming running kids with aperture lower than f4 was really hard. I couldn't find any video quality comparison of clog to raw footage from 5d mk III, so now that I got it I made one.

My observations are CLog does not match Raw but can get close. EOS R colors are cooler and require adding more magenta. Overall CLog can look pretty good in its own way but matching to RAW requires playing with quite a few dials.
Not regretting getting EOS R but cant get myself to sell my 5Dmk3 either. At least not yet. The price point is so low that I might just keep it. Raw is Raw :)
Btw. 4K crop is actually not a bad thing. I used ML 3x crop mode a lot and EOS R 4K cropped plus center 1080p crop gives me the same result. This is when I use a single prime for events and can record a scene from a distance to get two different views with lightweight setup and high aperture for low light situations, e.g. using 50mm f1.8 or 35mm f2.

Hope you find this informative.

This is my second video testing ML raw workflow over the longer period of shooting. Footage captured over 4 days probably total of 200GB. Final compilation of 5 minutes from selected clips. Handheld (no IS) or on a tripod.
Edited and stabilized in DavinciResolve 14 beta, Graded with EOSHD LUT. Workflow with MLVFS. Card Lexar Pro 1066 UDMA7.
Any feedback welcome.
