  • Orange blooming skin tone XDCAM 350

    We’re using an XDCAM 350, and have been experiencing a subtle iridescent orangy glow or bloom in the skin tones. It tends to happen irregularly, both indoors (using studio lighting) and outdoors.

    Has anybody else experienced this? If so, what settings should I be looking at?

    White balance. Seriously.

    You can dial in very warm balances on the camera that look very nice, nicer than some other cameras, except for the fact your skin tones will go nuclear.
