Yeah, I definitely agree its better. It seemed a little soft to me so I’m still doing a little tweaking. Right now I have the Detail turned on but set to 0 instead of the +5 where it was set. I think it does look better in AVCintra and now the noise only seems to be in the shadows which I’ve heard can happen with the 2000.
Thanks for all of your help.Tim

Hi Jeremy, I ran a few test and I’m still not feeling to great about the results and I thought I would get your input. These test were shot in dvcproHd and despite a few minor iris changes between the takes they are mainly the same shot with the different settings applied. I tried the current settings, the settings I mentioned I would change, and for a third test I downloaded and applied the Panasonic digineg preset. They all seem equally noisy to me. Especially when viewed on my Panasonic plasma. The only thing I did to the footage was add some text to illustrate which one is which. The download link is https://www.spotvault.com/hpx2000/NOISE_TEST.zip
Thanks Again,

Hi Jeremy, thanks for helping me diagnose this. I need to double check the exact firmware version tomorrow but I know it is pretty recent as we had to get an update from Panasonic to work with the letrosonic drop in receiver that we are using. I checked in the menu system earlier today and noticed a few things. First we are using the 0db gain setting. Secondly the detail setting was set to on. And secondly when I looked in the paint menu under additional detail the master detail is set to +5. does this seem right? I seem to recall being told that the less detail the better. I didn’t have any time to roll any footage today, but plan on turning gain to -3db, detail to off, master detail to 0, and rolling some test footage. Anything else you would suggest I try.
Thanks,

Yeah, I’ve seen this option but I can’t find anything that is similiar to a linear tape counter…
