I don’t see how this is a camera problem since external monitors only read the video feed being output, the camera doesn’t send any extra data about whats in focus etc. It is odd that its not working though.

Hey, Silvertonesx24, looks great!

In regards to the noise in slow-motion recording, what ISO settings did you use? In the manual the recommended ISO settings are 320 or 200 at HiSpeed mode, to get lower noise.

Pomfort Cliphouse supports all the formats the Kine cams shoot (including kineraw) and is considerably cheaper. Also has the ability to pre-grade your footage if you’re transcoding into an editing codec like ProRes or DNxHD. Only drawback is that it’s Mac only if you’re a PC user.

Note that it only supports CinemaDNG from…[Read more]

Looks great! what Settings & Lens etc?

Kinefinity are releasing a Speedbooster called KineEnhancer. Keep an eye on info about it this week since its NAB.

From my experience with support, they have been quick to reply. The cause of their delay currently will be because they are setting up for NAB. They are only a small team, so are all probably there lol.

That is correct, Kinestation license is already included in any camera purchase. They used to sell it separately for the older cameras, but that changed with the KineMini.

This does look great! Did you do any noise reduction on this?

Yes, for any manual lens I’d recommend dedicated VDSLR/Cine lenses as they have really nice features such as de-clicked aperture. I really like the Samyang VDSLR range.

That is good news! could you do a longer (30 mins) test and report that?

It’s interesting to watch this develop. Thanks for keeping us all in the loop George!

According to the information in the DR & ISO test by Filmcyfrowy, the “!” means:

“Note that with some ISO values a “!” is displayed, which means that this is a minimum ISO value for the present Highlights settings.”

Thanks filmcyfrowy!

The Pro Audio Module is only for the KineMAX so nobody has it for the KineMINI. As for the humming, I am sure it is something to do with the preamp within the camera, similar to the Canon 60D with a Rode video mic plugged in, you get humming. So I think this might be able to be fixed with a firmware update.

Yea I believe even Kinefinity recommend only using the KineMINIs audio capabilities for a scratch track only. Which I would always do anyway.

Does rokinon EF cine lens work
with kinemini with ef mount ?

Cine lenses should work fine since the iris is controlled manually, not electronically. 🙂

Great resources. If i want to improve my basic knowledge what course will you suggest me? The color grading central is a good place with good tutorials? Or is better to read the handbook of color correction?

Thank you guys!

Hey Marco! For the theory I suggest the handbook (a necessity in my opinion), and while I do like…[Read more]

Update: added a link to the ‘color correction handbook’.

Has anyone tried any of the Rokinon Cinema Primes with the 4K?

The Cine lenses have manual aperture so they should work just fine 🙂

Hi Wes, Another member contacted Kinefinity regarding this statement & they replied saying: “It will be implemented in the next version of KineStation”

So, it will come with KineStation v0.7 I assume. For the time being I will remove the bit about .KRW being able to revert back to CinemaDNG from the current details until this is properly implemented.
