remote or post??

[aleksa]

well, hi to all, i`m new at this forum and a newbie at movie making, anyhow i have a dilemma/question, and i hope some of you guys can help me out

is it better to temper with picture via DV camera remote controler (gamma,colour correction...etc) or can the same effect in gamma and colour be achived in Adobe`s After Effect????

in my own opinion i think that is always better to temper with pictures gamma and colour grading in post, but hey that`s only me

tnx

Depends. Doing it in the camera will give you the best possible quality, but restricts your choice later on. Doing it in post will lose image quality, but you can change your mind and do something completely different if the need arises.

I think it best to get the cleanest video you can then alter in post. You might check out DV Rack by seriousmagic.com Very cool.
