How to reduce gradient jumps
-
[Mark Gin] “I haven’t done this before because I didn’t know the anomaly’s name.”
Yes, I suppose “gradient jumps” wouldn’t return many search results. ;~) At the same time, my curiosity to know what a “gradient jump” is lead me to read the post in the first place and I imagine the same is true for others so it was effective to a degree.
[Mark Gin] “Great stuff can be found here”
Indeed the COW host a wealth of information going back many years so there’s not much that one can’t find here.
Sorry I can’t help with the specifics of DSLR workflow/issues.

Hi, Joseph!
What do you think are the advantages of shooting neutral over using the Technicolor Cinestyle?
I was using neutral most of the time and avoided whenever possible the so-called “flat styles”.
I was stunned, when first trying the Technicolor Cinestyle. Especially in low-light situations this style is awesome. Gives you a very clean picture and is – even without using the LUT – quite easy to grade.——————————————

Hi Peter –
Sorry I didn’t catch your response sooner. I generally use the neutral style not for any real specific reason other than that I’ve always followed the rule, both in audio, and video (not the DSLR world), to leave all my source material “dry”, so to speak, with no effects on it.
In that way, I can almost always achieve in the post process what I’ve left out in the shoot, but I can’t remove a color effect, or a settings tweak, once it has been recorded that way. I guess it’s more of a “how I’ve always done it” thing, not a right or wrong thing.

Hi Peter –
Some more confusion on this – I did a Google search on Neutral vs Cine style and found this:
https://www.learningdslrvideo.com/cinestyle-vs-neutral/
It looks to me as if there’s noise introduced in the non-neutral style setting. You be the judge. Probably the best thing to do would be to test it both ways, and see what looks best with our own cameras.
