  Colour matrix on SPX800 (PAL)?

  Posted by Roddy Jamieson on September 4, 2006 at 10:48 pm

  I apologise if I’m on the wrong forum but I have posted elsewhere with no success.

  I’ve been a Sony man for 20 years and now have gone P2 with the SPX800. I’m really trying to understand what others are doing with the Colour Matrix on this camera. It appears in its factory default MATRIX ‘A’ is the default setting. My concern is that the colour is very vibrant compared to what I’m used to with Sony. In particular, reds are, on many occasions, illegal on the vectorscope. I have aways trusted factory settings from camera manufacturers, but I now turn off the MATRIX ‘A’ for all of my shoots.

  I would welcome any other’s experiences regarding these settings or if Jan is watching, I would value her comments.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hi Roddy-

  I’d ask this on the Varicam forum- you’re a bit more likely to find shooters familiar with the SPX800 there:

  Thanks Noah, I’ve duplicated it on the Varicam.
