  • Removing Sharpness in Final Cut Pro X

    Posted by Nicolas Vallejo on August 10, 2013 at 2:24 pm

    Hi,
    I shoot with a 5D MKIII, and always use a Technicolor Cinestyle profile, which removes contrast, saturation, and sharpness from the image so I can add it in post.

    I shot a sequence without all these elements present except for sharpness. Need to take it down quite a bit. Is there a better way of achieving this than gaussian blur?

    Thanks,
    Fernando

    Try taking it into Resolve, then have some nice softening tools in there that will get the edge off.

    IN FCP X use .02 value to soften the image a bit. Work in small fractions instead of with the slider. a .02 pixel blur is often used to soften digital photography.

    Use a .02 value, where, exactly?
