On closer inspection Arri Log C works the same way where the gamma curve is different for each exposure index. I am sure that’s where DJI got the idea.

cDNG can’t be processed directly to D-gamut/D-Log in Resolve so you’d have to RAW process it to linear and then apply a linear to D-Log conversion which I don’t think you can do if the timeline is color managed? I’m not sure. But you know what, I found something interesting! I was drafting a...

I understand. Everybody has different needs. If shooting in full light, properly exposed, have enough dynamic range, don’t need to match the footage with another camera, working in rec. 709, and don’t need to transcode it for VFX then there probably isn’t any benefit to ProRes or cDNG.

This issue doesn’t happen on iOS only Android. I switch control apps all the time with my iPhone but trying it on Android devices like the Crystal Sky is always a mess.

To be clear that wasn’t the point I was trying to make and I’ve updated my last post to try and clarify that. The ISO 100 h.265 was hopelessly under exposed in the shadows and could not be recovered. The ProRes DLOG EI 100 was what surprised me as far as being able to recover shadows. One...

Did you switch to sport or atti mode? This is typically the procedure in this kind of situation. This cuts off automated flight control and allows you to regain manual control. You can also tap the RTH button to stop automatic RTH or landing in most situations.

I did some tests today and there’s but a minute difference between the total amount of noise in EI mode ProRes DLOG vs it’s rec 709 H265 counterpart. This is using Neat Video to build a noise profile which gives me an objective measure of noise. 100 EI gives you a fairly even spread of noise...

Yea you were right, I did some tests today and there was no difference between the cDNG in EI vs non EI mode. Also like you said the waveform has way more latitude in the highlights than when EI mode is off. What I am thinking is that the waveform in EI mode is specifically tuned to help expose...

Thanks. That does makes sense for the question of what the purpose of the linear to D-Log LUT does and I understand that what I still don't understand is what El mode does differently to cDNG than normal mode. BTW ISO isn't baked into the other RAW formats that I have used. Red RAW, BRAW, Canon...

I am pretty slow so bear with me here please. I totally understand that in el mode when recording D-log to the SSD you can monitor in Rec 709 even though you are recording D-log to the SSD. I get that it makes sense. What I am now confused about is if el mode changes anything when it comes to...

Thanks!

It’s ei mode as in “exposure index” I’ve edited my original post to make this more clear. Originally I had eI which does make it look like Spanish work for “the.”

Thanks I’ll look into that. I really wish DJI would explain it so it’s not such a mystery

I’m sure this has been asked before even though I couldn’t find it anywhere and @The Editor is gonna to be upset with me but can anyone explain el mode and how to use it please? I shoot primarily in cDNG but if there’s a difference for ProRes please let me know. The only thing that would sorta...
