8-bit to 32-bit Before Render?

MH_Stevens wrote on 2/24/2008, 1:39 PM

Here is another sort of color space question. IF I edit in 8-bit to keep EX1 files in studio RGB to match the Vegas color-bars etc and THEN change to 32-bit before render, will not my final result look different from what I have color corrected too? I would expect it to go more contrasty.

Glad we've got this sorted.
Is there an academy award for technical persistance?

Sorry Bob - no academy award. There isn't even a golden globe. There would have been a golden globe, but due to color space shifts, it's going to have to be considered a Yellowish-brown globe now.. And it got dropped, and broke into 30 pieces, so it didn't even stand up to 32bits either..

Yeah... I think we should say "thanks" to Glenn and Bob, and "apologies" to Vegas Pro 8 :)

Cause you see Bill, I've also did some edits with Edius, and I still prefer Vegas.

The only thing that is really below standards is the support we're getting.

I agree about the thanks and to everyone else that is trying to help with the 32 bit B.S. but no aploogies to vegas 8,, or the sony staff who don't chime in or have a decent paper on the subject
