Yellowstone Footage

Just thought I would share with you guys some footage from the st prototype:

Oh, I love the footage. Is that with the screen that you will be shipping in the adapter? - because the Bokeh looks much better than the V3. Most of the footage was outside, but was the light performace satisfactory?

Thanks. Since there is more diffusion then the light loss is more...just the trade off you have to make. Any natural light either outside or coming in from windows works just fine with this screen. Whithout it, you need better lighting. Over all I don't feel a major hinderance from the screen (and it's a fixed screen so that's nice).

Do you mean that this footage was shot with a static adapter? I guess I should have know that’s what st stood for. Very impressive. Will the cost of the static be less than the vibrating adapter?

Not sure. They cost less than the vb but they are harder to make because of putting it together in a clean environment and making sure everything is spotless in there.

interesting. how far can you stop down on the static?

You can go down to about 5.6 depending on the light you have available

I don't understand why you can't stop down as far on a static. Is it because you can start to see the grain?

yeah you will start to see a pattern if you try to go to small.

Personally I don't see much of a problem in it. I think it's impressive what you show here.

Is the screen air sealed in this prototype already? Does it work good, what are your toughts?
Did you decide to seal it permenantly?

The proto I used for that footage was not air tight. I blew the screen off with canned air before shooting and it luckily stayed off. I have a system to seal it and for the static ones, i will be sealing them permanently. I don't want to take chances. I see to many DIT projects with static screens that suck becasue you see all kinds of dust on the screens. The RNG needs to be professsional and not look like DIY projects.

Good decision.
