youre right having perfect sync between all the different angles on my home movie about christmas imovie project is vital. cant even colour correct properly, imovie is trash and nobody should make professional content with it

slates sure do make us look smart, but like timecode, scene references are one of those things we just "feel"

its why they dont shoot movie scenes in order; we show up in the morning and feel it out.

we tried the u2413 at work and determined that all of them have green veiling no matter what viewing angle you are at

it has to do with the cheap polarizer they use in the display. I have no faith in sell that they are using a better polarizer

but hey! hardware lut support!!!

Here's a video of the problem in action it is not an exaggeration and they all come out of the box with some level of green veiling (idiots calling it "green tinted corners")

There is a NEC monitor for $600 that is pagancow approved for sRGB work.

http://www.tftcentral.co.uk/reviews/nec_p232w.htm

If you have to run a video signal through it you still need to buy a YUV to RGB converter external to the box as it will only accept RGB signals

Could you get one of those eyefi SD cards and use that to transfer to your PC over wifi?

seems like it may work

it's a good idea; in theory you could have a device that did that. iPhone case with a little battery and a SD card slot. auto-sync all photos and movies to the SD card over wifi, optionally deleting them as you go. app to be able to see them and play them back off the SD card over wifi. probably too edge-case and not marketable enough though

I've always just bought the largest capacity so I don't know about file management.

I have used an iPhone 4S in a Production for a few shots. just make sure it's supposed to be a wide establishing shot and you'll get away with it after grading.

there are camera apps now that let you shoot 23.976 fps and adjust exposure manually now.

filmic pro does this and let's you transfer files to an FTP so there's that.

So i had to calibrate my parent's TV because we watched a streaming movie on netflix and all the skin tones were super red, and the background was NOT the correct shade of teal.

I don't have my tools but I did it by eye, and gamma levels were correct again, and skin tones looked normal.

the teals are a little hosed but at least neutral colors are actually neutral again

There's a 7.5 ire strip on a test pattern that should be barely visible when you set the darkness levels.

as for gamma curve that's really hard to adjust without a system menu and some sort of light measuring device.
