At the Bench: Sony FS700 & HXR-IFR5 RAW Recording

Sony stopped by recently to show us the FS700 with the RAW output option enabled. This upgrade has to be done at Sony for a cost of $400. However, if you buy their HXR-IFR5 and R5 recorder the fee is waived.

The cost is well worth it though, as the upgrade also enables not only RAW, but S-Log2 and Rec709 (800%) gamma modes in the camera. In the video above, I give a quick demo of how to enable RAW output on the camera, how to enable slow motion in 2K and 4K, and how to enable the S-Log2 gamma mode.

If you'd like to learn more about the Sony FS700, make sure to check out our full-day FS100/FS700 workshop coming up next month!

Tutorials & Guides
At AbelCine, we offer a class on video formats that covers a variety of different terms and compression formats. One of the more common questions I'm asked is, "What's the difference between uncompressed video, Raw, and Log recording?" With so many cameras these days offering different recording options, combined with the popularity of external recorders, it's no wonder there are a lot of questions about this topic.
