@Monti - I appreciate your input here but perhaps we're starting to stray too far from the intended subject matter of the thread which is raw video on the 50D. The cinematography, color, grading, aesthetics, film and other areas of film making are probably worthy of their own thread (maybe there are similar threads here on the ML forum?).
Incidentally, although you are correct with your observations about contrast, colour, framing etc, there are also many other examples where DPs and colourists will do the exact opposite and go for a low contrast/desaturated look and not stick to the rule of thirds at all. As I said, it's purely subjective and individual but obviously it's good to know the theory and always educate yourself.
You did actually make me think more about my grading TBH. I still like what I did because it fits the mood and look I intended, but also I know I can push myself further and be more creative with colour. It's great that raw video lets us explore these possibilities properly.
yeah i went far coz just answered the previous commenter
and also my intention of pushing this subjects is to open up raw video subject
as those who shoot films in hollywood are doing it on raw video as meant to be on canon 50d
so i just highlighted that if someone shooting on magic/tragic lantern raw video
then it makes sense to follow up the highest standarts of cinematography
if people learn basic of their video job then they may make use of all magic/tragic lantern feautures
otherwise targeting on something small makes the limited thoughts on the rest of job
must push forward
and not to stop on something obvious and simple as can be made on anything else
ps i mean developers work hard here and you also complile new features day by day
it is just not fare not to make use of it in post production
@Andy600
your previous color grading photos is not opening anymore
something happen with links
