Vals Sweet Kitchen Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 Here is a link showing the same clip using my HD phone and my Sony ZV DSLR. https://youtu.be/UkL9-UvsuiI This clip shows the same shot: 10 sec from my HD phone and then the same from my Sony ZV. My phone has more detail and shows the color difference better. On my Sony, I tried different f stops but that didn't add the detail. How do I get rid of these hot spots in VideoPad? I tried the color balance effect to only change midtones and highlights, but the phone clip still is better. Also tried playing with exposure too.

borate Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 As the shots aren't identical it's a tough call. To my eyes, the Sony looks brighter, more saturated. That said, the batter/butter highlights look to be slightly blown out and should be adjusted at the camera. Once detail is lost, it's gone. While the phone is more nuanced, its overall image seems a bit 'cool.' Strictly my opinion; others may disagree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vals Sweet Kitchen Posted March 28, 2023 Author Share Posted March 28, 2023 Thanks! I'm going to try a different lens too next time. I'll still back it up with my phone -- it's only a few seconds so shouldn't make too much difference in the total video quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
