I'm really enjoying the 4K camera so far, but even in what I would consider ok light, I've noticed banding noise down the image. Thanks to CaptainHook I know this isn't a fault with the camera, but I see places like Cinema5D having issues with the noise:
http://www.cinema5d.com/news/?p=23587Being new to video, I haven't learned how to use the noise reduction tools in Resolve yet, but I thought I'd put it through Topaz DeNoise 5 as they added a feature specific to band noise removal. It's a Photoshop / Lightroom plug-in, so you'd have to batch process frames but it'd be interesting to compare it to the video based noise removal programs or Resolve. If anyone is keen to run it through I'd love to see the results
Here's the original frame, from Cinema5D.com's review:
Here's it put through DeNoise 5 (settings: vertical banding, width: 35 and a touch more Red noise removal overall)
(right click and save as or open in new window for the 4K sized images)
It's still not perfect, but I think that takes it from un-usable to usable.
