Bouquet ~ Stumb bouquet little magic mushrooms (clustered woodlover) in the woods around Alphen in Holland. On top some remains of the old woodlovers first filmed 2 weeks ago (20201003) . Filmed with Sony ZV-1 camera (HLG2) and internal microphone without windscreen. Changed today from using a white card to a grey card (Caruba DGC-1 Digital Grey Card) for white balance measurement with a less greenish tint – and a better outcome. Slight exposure edit in post (FCPX).

Shroom Stems • @1MEMO 20201009


Stems of cluster magic mushrooms – a slugs after dinner. Clustered woodlover (Hypholoma fasciculare, Psilocybe fascicularis, Sulphur tuft, dutch : Gewone zwavelkop) in Alphen, Holland.
Filmed with Sony ZV-1 camera (PP10: rec.2020/HLG) and Sennheiser MKE 200 microphone.
(Note : I did some comparisons today of Sony’s default ‘no picture profile’ and PP10 with rec.2020/HLG in the ZV-1 camera. I preferred the PP10 outcome , after color grading in FCPX with saturation decrease and exposure changes. That comparison is not shown here.)

Magic Mushrooms Leftovers • @1MEMO 20201007


What’s left after dinner of the cluster magic mushrooms – eaten by land slugs (see yesterdays clip).
Filmed with Sony ZV-1 using Picture Profile 10 (PP10) with the Hybrid Log-Gamma HLG2.
Edited – no color grading – in standard Final Cut Pro X library (Rec. 709) changing the clips setting in the inspector for ‘Color Space Override’ from ‘Off’ to ‘Rec.2020’ (corresponding to the BT.2020 setting in my Sony ZV-1 camera’s PP10 profile). Sound Sennheiser MKE 200 microphone level 20, with the furry windshield.

Final Color Grading HLG Sony ZV-1


Final choice for color grading HDR footage from the Sony ZV-1 filmed using the Picture Profile 10 (PP10) with the Hybrid Log-Gamma HLG2.
My final choice is that version uploaded Sep. 25th (20200925) prepared in a standard library (Rec. 709) of Final Cut Pro X (FCPX). Here I added Neat Video noise reduction, for this 20200929 final version !

Over the past two days I tried to improve on this video by editing in a in a Wide Gamut-HDR FCPX library, producing several versions : 20200928, and 20200927. However , I am using the Late 2015 Retina 5K iMac with a P3 color gamut – not matching the wider Rec.2020 gamut of the footage. Strange things – big difference in colors/luma – happen working with that Wide Gamut library , when exporting the edited work in either h264 (or h265) versus Apple ProRes 422.

I believe I obtain superior and more consistent results when grading in the standard FCPX library (Rec. 709), after changing the clips setting in this library for ‘Color Space Override’ in the FCPX clip inspector : from ‘Off’ to ‘Rec.2020’ (corresponding to the BT.2020 setting in my Sony ZV-1 camera’s PP10 profile).

Next for color grading only the color wheels in FCPX were used for a slight overall (master) increase of saturation , a slight reduction of the brightness of highlights and shadows, plus a larger increase in brightness of the midtones.
