Samsung nx 500 and auto - gama what?!!
1

Hi,

I know you cannot Choose which gama you want, Gama D,  gama C, etc, on the nx500, even in manual mode, however, i would like to know if someone knows which gama does the nx500 actual uses? Also, when using the nx1 in auto, i noticed that Collors seem to get more contrasty. Does the nx1 always Change to Gama C in auto?

Last question. Is it possíble to Record vídeo, with different pictures wizards, or does it works only in photo? I mean, i tried all modes, Change pictures styles, but when i press Record, in any mode, it ignores the picture profile i have chosen. Thanks

Samsung NX1 Samsung NX5 Samsung NX500

I don't know the answer, but I'm following this thread to hopefully find out!

I also find that video on default mode on the nx1 is too contrasty. I've tried the different gamma modes but don't have the time or skill to post process to something I'm satisfied with, so usually just end up reducing the contrast in post in the default settings.

Hopefully someone with more knowledge than me can help you with this.

Marky, is that you? Oh, Portugal and England, both eliminated in the qatar quarter finals... Snif, snif...

Anyway,as for this tópic, when i shoot vídeo in auto, image is much more pleasent to me. I know this is a matéria of taste, but colors seem to pop. When shooting in manual, i never can recreate the image produced in auto. Also, image in auto seems much more pleasent in the nx500, than manual on the nx1, Thats, if we Choose gama D. I Guess gama D os ours v logo... Needs color correction, i Guess...

i read some posts written by you while ago... You complaint about image flickering, even in manual. I had the same problema. I Solved it. It Is dued to 50hz electricity. You have to sync the Shutter speed, choosing, 1/50 or 1/100. You Also Said, you bought the rx100, right? Well you should by the lumix g100. Great little câmera. The formfactor is great. Bye
