    The S-Log feature will be available with the dual link firmware option. I believe it works with single link 4:2:2 also and it will require a 10 bit recorder to take advantage of S-Log.

    Good Luck

    10 bit 4:2:2 is fine and dandy. Thanks for the info. Are you sure about this, though? 🙂

    Are you saying the S-Log and Dual Link options are bundled together, but can operate exclusively?

    No S-Log available on SXS recording (just curious)?

    Thanks, Michael.

    Yes

    8 bit won’t capture enough data so no SxS for S-log

    Good Luck

    Well, it’s a gamma curve. I understand why this wouldn’t be advisable in XDcam, but just wondering if it was possible.

    Thanks much for the info, this is now more tangible.

    I just took delivery of my F3 and I can’t wait for the upgraded firmware, and my friends from Convergent Design are working hard to make the Gemini 4:4:4 the best digital recording solution for the F3. S-Log will be a great new adventure.

    Good Luck
