Dual iso

[extremelypoorfilmaker]

Togger, if i may, why do you need dual iso, anyway? Maybe i might be wrong, but logic since now has always told me that as long as you can keep your iso not exceeding 1600 the footage it should be pretty usable anyway! Than, some cameras have better noise reduction that other ( see the 5D mkII vs the 6D ) and some other cameras they were built for night shooting ( Sony A7 )

I am just assuming you want Dual-ISO for a cleaner footage, right?

Well if your tired of it then i will just leave it alone then.

The link I directed to on my blog takes you through what to do for single image Dual, ie not video stuff, ie the other .exe files are needed by cr2hdr.exe.

Also the first page of the ML plug-in post tells you in simple terms what to do, ie how to get it running in LR.

I'm afraid, at a distance, I can't help you anymore.

Good luck :-)

@togger --

Dual ios works well w 7D that I use at work... Just the video part isn't implemented yet.

Just photos and works flawlessly... Totally stunning and absolutely worth the post work!

Don't give up and unlike most of us here... Practice makes perfect and if we didn't give up then you shouldn't as well!

Keep it up and good luck!

Ok,have been trying with this again,i don,t use video so this is just for photos,i re-d/loaded all the software & installed it again,the LR plugin is showing now.
Maybe it was corrupt in the last d/load i don,t know,but now it is all installed properly.
I have read that the dual iso only works on every alternate shot,so that means i have to take 2 shots of the same scene & use the second shot to work on dual iso,have i got that correct.

@togger

Dual-ISO taking is selectable and there are two strategies.

You can selected it to take a dual every time you capture an image.

You can also select it to take a dual every other click of the shutter, so you need to take two images of a scene to stay in sync. I don't use this option.

It's your choice and selectable in the menu.

Thanks for that got that bit now
So anyway i went out just local paths & woods,all the dual iso shots are showing pink in them,but i also had a polarizer on so i don,t know if that caused it or not.

@togger

An unprocessed dual will look strange, so ignore viewing at this stage.

You need to process it into a tiff first.

As I said above, try this workflow : ETTR to get the optimum exposure, ie tonal data, and use dual to cover the darks and shadows.

Even processed they were pink in the sky,i am using ETTR,i will have another play with it maybe.

[Audionut]

Upload an example please.

[togger]

Sorry i deleted them all,could it be because i had a polarizer fitted?.

[Audionut]

She might know.  I need the actual files to make an determination.

[togger]

  I will try & take some more shots later

[togger]

I took 2 shots second shot the shutter changed to 1/8000 & i don,t know why




The noise is bad as well

Removed ML for now,maybe try again at some point.
