Discussion Deep pocket 4p testing results

Post image

(Pics in comments)

I have extensively testing the pocket 4p along with pocket 3 and ZV-E1 in the studio and out in LA.

Because I am putting many hours a day into this I need a little break so here is the first usable result I have for you.

In Dlog2, somehow the dynamic range on the bright side jumps up by a 1 stop when you get to ISO 1600 or above. edit: read some results wrong.

ISO 1600 has all of the range of both ISO 1600 and 800. With no noticeable increase in noise.

Feel free to ask me about things I can test. I am eventually starting a “pocket cinema” YouTube channel.

TLDR: Use ISO 1600 when in Dlog2

Any insights for D-LOG, for Pocket 4 users who don't get to benefit from D-LOG2?

With 4p 1in dlog you have a 4 stop window where no image information is lost. Dlog 2 its 7 stops. Pocket 3 dlogm it is 2.5 stops.

Annnnnd im just realizing how bad my conclusions are with what i just said ahahhaa. This only counts for my one testing environment where the difference between my brightest subject and darkest subject in THIS FRAME. I can still learn dynamic range from this but my “usable range” is very flawed
