Light Pollution Filters for Sony Users

Optolong and DEO have partnered to bring you an innovative solution to use light pollution filters on your Sony NEX and A7 series cameras.
The DEO adapter has two parts — Drop-in Filter Adapter and Lens Adapter.

The Drop-in Filter Adapter allows you to easily drop in either Optolong L-Pro or Optolong UHC filter into the adapter which sits behind the lens. This allows you to shoot with wide-angle lens without the limitation of front-mounted filters.
With the two filters included, you have the flexibility to use Optolong L-Pro for light to medium light polluted skies or Optolong UHC when the light pollution is strong.
The DEO Lens Adapter allows you to use Canon or Nikon lenses on your Sony cameras.

Hrvoje: “I have thoroughly analyzed Sony FS7 and optimized its imaging performance.
New Primers Equinox series starts from this camera. These Primers are designed for professional log recording 10 bit+ cameras. This particular package is designed specifically for FS7 sensor and S-Log3/S-Gamut3.Cine basis and it optimizes the signal for Rec.709, significantly improving Sony FS7 performance.
Included are 4 64x64x64 .cube files for post production workflow and 4 33x33x33 .cube files for camera and set preview.

01 Base is best suited for a colorist, other three are more definitive and closer to the final outcome and may be more helpful to shooters working on their own material and as a set preview. All four are greyscale neutral and utilize full available dynamic range of the sensor and recorded shadow and highlight data is preserved. This makes S-Log3 workflow much more practical and consistent and there is no shadow accentuated noise as initially assumed with S-Log3.

Achieved:
– Improved color performance on many aspects across the whole signal range
– Optimized utilization of full sensor dynamic range
– More natural and organic image impression

Primers should be used as a first step in post on S-Log3/S-Gamut3.Cine shot material and all color modifications apart from white point correction should come after the signal is optimized.

Kind regards and happy shooting!
