Mars 11/07 My Best so far

Posted By Christopher Go

Just reprocessed my earlier image for a smoother less grainy processing. I have also adjusted the color to make it redder than before. Which do you think is better? Any suggestions on how to improve this?

Thanks,

Chris

DMK cameras

Posted By Christopher Go

Hello Ed,

Get the DMK21AF04. DO NOT GET THE 21F04 because it has the TI chipset bug.

IC Capture help

Posted By Christopher Go

Hello Ed,

Once you install the DMK driver, Virtualdub should be able to pick up the file. Another thing that you can do is to use RGB codec or IYUV codec. Either one should work well for you. Lastly are you using the LATEST version of Virtualdub? I tested this in Tomio's laptop (non-firewire) and it picks up Y800 without a problem.

In my case, I am able to process y800 using Registax after installing the Unibrain Fire-i driver. I still can't figure out how this happens but it may be because Registax supports only VFW.

I prefer to use IC Capture over K3. This is because of it's ability to keep it's property tabs active while you are recording. This is especially true when you are doing RGB and you have to modify gain, fps and exposure time when you change channels. In K3, you have to go through all the menus.

Chris
