which trial of moon?

95mbs card should work fine its and extreme pro i'm guessing? you're using the 720 for 60p I'm guessing?

@matt_gh2 my moon trial 4 test video posted on previous page was with rokinon 35mm t1.5

EDIT: These are screen grabs from QuickTime X. For some reason, the grab from the Moon video clip is smaller in size than the others. Please skim forward to my next image post; all three of those images were exported from MPEG Streamclip and may be more accurate representations of these settings.

@GravitateMediaGroup I was curious how Moon holds up to banding. Take a look at the light spill on the wall. Moon beats out FlowMotion here, hands down. And I love the look. I am really impressed.

@jclmedia I guess you will need to find a camera better for fast action. I shot a snowboarding edit a few weeks back with the gh3's 60p and it worked like a charm

ahha um i dont think so. I mean i own a hpx170 too , if anything id use stock settings or use flowmotion 2.02 like ive been using that has over 100mbs , and ive shot skateboarding with gh2 alot with 60p its fine.

@jclmedia....so you don't like the gh3? lol if you want true 1080/60p at 72mbs, you don't have many option. hpx170......poop i've own the 150 and the ac130, couldn't stand em

and if you are happy with FM, why are you looking for a new option? if it isn't broke don't fix it right?

i think the main focus of moon is grade ability, not so much if it cures banding if FM appears to have less banding, it would be because it has more compression/less detail if moon appears to have more noise and artifacts, it would be because it has more detail

kinda like all-i vs ipb

I'm confused...the one presented as Moon in the test above is a lower resolution shot, and seems darker than the other two...?! Just roll your mouse over, the file-size is different. Go desktop preview 1, 2 seem similar, the third is smaller and darker.

I am shooting an indie feature in very stuff conditions, really more like a documentary, in the jungle, and I'd been using FlowMotion up until I tried Moon. Now I'm happily using Moon 3 with extreme stability and great results, and I like it better. I hadn't thought of the hacks having a 'look' before this, but Moon does. It seems flatter and more gradable and more detailed than anything I've tried. Good stuff. I did not get quite the same results with Moon trial 4 and it sounds like I'm not the only one. I hope @driftwood will weigh in on the pros and cons of each when he gets a chance.

@GravitateMediaGroup That may be, and I am looking forward to grading footage with this setting, but this is a happy accident for sure. It addresses and minimizes my biggest issue with this camera.

@jclmedia you are happy with 720, but concerned with crop sensor?

@matt_gh2, thanks for the info. I started using Cluster v7 'Apocalypse Now' - 6 GOP Nebula '444 Sharp2', thinking it would be sharper for use with Helios 44m and an Isco Cinemascope Ultra Star. Chaining that much glass, image can become softer, although perhaps other issues playing out. Not done any controlled environement tests to A/B any patches yet, and the whole anamorphic add on is a pain with dual focus requirement. I also recently purchased additional Japanese M42 50mm range taking lenses, thinking the Takumar will be the sharpest of those I acquired from eBay, so more testing also in that department coming up. I was thinking Cluster v7 'Apocalypse Now' - 6 GOP Nebula '444 Sharp2' would also be good for my set of Lomo's in OCT-19, however, I will have to compare also with AN Boom, as you suggested.

Tied up in post work at the moment, any further patch suggestions? I was thinking of trying CY Night. Also, I like Intra (yet open to non-Intra), looking for image sharpness, most of my glass is legacy Russian, and a few Japanese lenses now, perhaps these lenses are not as sharp as those produced today.
