You’ve been to Canada within the last 16 months and you haven’t called me? No cards. No letters. I’m sorta crushed. I would have cooked dinner and stuff.

Run a clip through FCP and apply the 3 way colour corrector. Desaturate it and see if the coloured fringing disappears. If it does then you’ll know to shoot clean and apply your effects in post. If the fringing is still there but the colour is gone then shoot a short clip without using B/W. Bring that into FCP, apply CC and desaturate. See if the fringing is gone.

[Sascha Engel] “Yes, in some of the shots I did set the Detail level to 0 – and yet I got the color fringe. “
As a test just turn the detail off completely and see if that makes a difference to the edge colour.

[Vince Tennant] “It did not indicate AF or MF, it was just gone. “
The lens is definitely not talking with the camera. When you rent again make sure everything’s working before you leave the building.

Don’t know if there is but if anyone does have one it may be found at the following companies:

I’ve always set my SD DVD’s to letterbox only and they play at the proper aspect ratio on a widescreen TV.

DVD Studio Pro is capable of making 2 types of DVD:
- HD DVD which will only play on Mac computers
- Regular SD DVD which will play in any DVD player
Noah wants you to check your settings and state which one you’re trying to build.

I’m running:
Mac OS 10.6.2
Sony FAM Driver Tool v.2.1.1
Sony Clip Browser v.2.0.6
Sony Transfer Tool v.2.11.0This all works well on my 17″ Macbook Pro.
I stayed away from upgrading to Mac OS 10.6.3 because a trusted friend said it was dodgy with certain apps. He’s also an EX1 user.

Sascha,
Use the Flicker filter in FCP and set it to maximum. That should reduce the line twittering to an acceptable level. I’ve never seen a ‘purple edge fringing’ before so it may have something to do with shooting B/W in-camera and still having too much edge detail dialed in. A suggestion for next time would be to shoot clean and to your B/W special FX in post. And set your in-camera edge detail to virtually nothing the next time you want to shoot balconies with a ton of vertical railings 🙂
