I have always wondered if this technique about lowering contrast actually gives you advantages.

After all, a real 'flat' profile (log) just looks like that because it is not made to be showed properly out of the box on normal display devices. Not sure if emulating the displayed 'look' actually achieves an advantage (also messing with contrast can lead to even more banding problems).

About the nx300, it could make a very decent video camera if anyone hacked the maximum bitrate and maybe the encoding settings (like beforementioned lack of cabac). Currently it is ridiculously bitrate starved (I had it).
