| 14:06 | philippej | Hello there ! for timecode, it would be really cool to provide some additional features, like emit timecode somehow from the camera (or another box) and have several receivers to output it back to various devices.

| 15:22 | se6astian | good evening
|
| 15:27 | comradekingu | today i learnt that sony x200 camera has two zebra patterns, one default at 70% +-10% that you can set, and another that is everything above 100% that you cant set. and then you can also show them both at once
|
| 15:28 | comradekingu | And if there is a preconfigured BBC setup available thats really nice
|
| 15:32 | intracube | comradekingu: BBC setup?
|
| 15:33 | comradekingu | yes, bbc often releases setups where all their levels are at reference
|
| 15:33 | intracube | you mean like gamma/knee/saturation/etc?
|
| 15:33 | comradekingu | and its a set of standards, but each camera has profiles, so they often have one for each pro-camera
|
| 15:33 | comradekingu | yes
|
| 15:33 | comradekingu | and sound-levels
|
| 15:33 | intracube | gotcha
|
| 15:34 | comradekingu | each video-person has his own settings too, on a uSD card
|
| 15:34 | comradekingu | But first i would make the setup really intuitive, something these cameras often are not
|
| 15:35 | intracube | comradekingu: I take it you film professionally?
|
| 15:35 | comradekingu | and also where cables are inserted, nothing must be in the way there, so allow for a bigger cable
|
| 15:36 | comradekingu | intracube: i work at the technical storage for the national broadcaster
|
| 15:36 | intracube | ah, I think I remember you saying that
|
| 15:37 | intracube | do broadcasters usually have rules for the lenses allowed?
|
| 15:38 | intracube | like only allow specific models of lenses?
|
| 15:38 | comradekingu | We have anything from default zooms to colour-gray stuff with handles, different people have different equipment
|
| 15:39 | comradekingu | If you can lose the lens cap, visor, and ideally park it without powering off the stabilization, it will happen.
|
| 15:40 | comradekingu | And up untill now nothing has been marked, or had old marking, which can also fall off if you are unlucky
|
| 15:40 | intracube | ?
|
| 15:40 | se6astian | comradekingu: how are the two different zebra levels visualized?
|
| 15:41 | comradekingu | just gray and white stripes covering the area that is in range, i can take a picture of it if you want
|
| 15:42 | comradekingu | One thing that would be nice is naming the camera in the menu, so you know its camera 3 for example
|
| 15:42 | intracube | doesn't understand :)
| | 15:42 | comradekingu | what didnt you understand?
|
| 15:42 | intracube | "<comradekingu> If you can lose the lens cap, visor, and ideally park it without powering off the stabilization, it will happen."
|
| 15:42 | intracube | what will happen?
|
| 15:43 | intracube | and "And up untill now nothing has been marked, or had old marking, which can also fall off if you are unlucky"
|
| 15:43 | comradekingu | all equipment that have a potential of seeing misuse, will be misused
|
| 15:43 | comradekingu | if it can break, it will suprise me more if it isnt in a broken or semi-broken state
|
| 15:44 | intracube | the BBC's guidelines have info about minimum requirements for the cameras themselves; eg, digibeta for SD, HDCAM for HD
|
| 15:44 | comradekingu | Make everything sturdy, because people want their stuff to work right when they want to use it normally
|
| 15:44 | intracube | but I couldn't see info about the types of lenses permitted
|
| 15:44 | intracube | and lens quality can vary a heck of a lot :)
|
| 15:44 | comradekingu | i dont think there is a limit on the lenses
|
| 15:45 | intracube | interesting
|
| 15:45 | comradekingu | obviously its not junk, but the lenses hold up really well.
|
| 15:46 | comradekingu | Re-usable lenses would be really nice, because a lot of the old cameras just get put out of comission with usable lenses on
|
| 15:47 | comradekingu | Right now its 1080i for TV, and often 4k for web, so depending on if the material has value far into the future, the quality of the gear that is used goes up
|
| 15:48 | comradekingu | News-reporting from studio in small places has the lowest priority, sometimes even shot in SD
|
| 15:49 | comradekingu | The worst stuff we have is gopro 3+, used for convenient angles and risky things.
|
| 16:04 | intracube | comradekingu: yep, I noticed the BBC use ENG/portable cameras + lenses for their HD news programmes
|
| 16:04 | intracube | instead of studio cameras with box lenses
|

| 18:02 | comradekingu | going to rig down some lighting in a news studio tomorrow, will take note of cameras
