I could span with 16g 30mb/s cards on MoonT7.

I'm talking about the Sandisk Extreme Pro 16gig cards.

???

Confused ideas...

@IVIaverick52 The precise answer is yes -- but the truth is that I haven't actually reached that point, yet (my current projects are relatively massive, and unfortunately, that means 95% of my current time is dedicated to research and writing and not the fun stuff like editing). The direct answer is that you match your Blackmagic footage to your production -- and you have vastly less flexibility with the GH2 footage. And, honestly, the GH2 footage (although it has less aliasing and no moire) is tougher to work with when you mix in Blackmagic footage because it does have an H.264 look. That said -- only people like us recognize an H.264 look -- and general audiences are generally oblivious to this stuff. So -- you match your Blackmagic footage to your GH2 stuff -- because the Blackmagic footage can be made into almost any look. You can't transform the GH2 too far from its core recording state. That said -- the GH2 stuff is great and looks wonderful -- especially with settings by Driftwood.

Drewnet T9 :)

@onionbrain makes sense. I constantly forget that to the average viewer, most of the stuff that bugs us goes unnoticed to them. I'm in the middle of cutting a music video and was going through some of the edited footage with my client and caught myself explaining why the 4:2:0 color space doesn't work well with harsh colored venue lights such as all red or all blue... he looked at me like I was speaking another language haha!

will a PNY Elite Performance 64GB UHS-1 SDXC Flash Card SD SDHC 90MB/s Class sd work with moon T7?

I have to report a problem on moon T7. I dont know if somebody else has experienced it, but I had several freezes with moon T7 on a sandisk extreme 64gb. I was recocording with 1080 50i.

When we started shooting, we could no watch the 50i files afterwards in camera. As it froze 2 times in a row while recording, i switched to 24p. Then suddendly we could see the 50i footage we had recorded. While recording with 24p, the preview lagged, like it had only 15 fps. Watching the files after recording, everything was smooth and fine.

These problems are new to me, I have been using moon T5 for a long time. After this day I might put it back on...

@maddog15 you have reported recording stops (2 out of 50). Was it T7 24H?

@DeShonDixon I'd be really surprised if it didn't. The real question comes down to reliability and whether or not it spans.

I was using two Panasonic brand 90/45Mb SDXC cards and they were complete trash. I was really surprised. Both ended up failing, one after the first day of use, during a format and the second a couple months later with a full day's shoot on it. Didn't span either. I'm determined to stick to Sandisk now.

@DeShonDixon This may work...but its only $20 less than the Sandisk 64GB 95MB/s card. Maybe someone else here can chime in if they've had good luck with Sandisk 80MB/s cards like this one:

I haven't had the need to really push grading on the Drewnet T9 patch until recently. I had to get footage of a guitarist for a solo section in a music video and the venue had all red lights, non DMX controlled, and the lighting guy wouldn't change them to white. I'm amazed at what I was able to pull out of what I would have otherwise thought to be terrible footage. Here's a quick before and after CC.

@IVIaverick52 Thats kickass dude! I have a shot that is similar.. Can you tell me how you were able to take it there?

@Aashay in After Effects it took quite a bit of manipulation in the curves. I lowered the red across the board. Lows, mids, and highs all reduced with a curve reducing mids even more. When it started to look relatively de-saturated but neutral, I added a slight S curve and reduced the white clipping point while bringing up the mids slightly to compensate for the huge mid reduction in the red channel. This takes a bit of playing with since skin tones have so much red in them. From there I just tweaked the blue and green channels and increased the saturation until I got something adequately natural looking.
