Conversely, the lamp that Indy and Marion are tied to in the opening of the ark sequence was digitally illuminated in the BD whereas it should be off. Not sure whether the WOWOW has the lamp on or off.Can I see some screenshots of this?
Also, how’s the matching tool do for the bar scene?
Here’s an example for the bar scene.
35mm LPP:
WOWOW:
WOWOW matched to 35mm LPP:
If you load the images in to photoshop, and sample sections of her jacket and their skin tones, you’ll see that the sampled pixels are more saturated. This is also confirmed by my eyes when I load the images in to Resolve and view them on my rec709 monitor.
Yes, but there’s a very good reason for this. You’re using the wrong metric. The print has much less detail in the shadow areas, when compared to the WOWOW, even taking into account the lower contrast of the WOWOW. A more detailed source will always have higher peaks in saturation and contrast (and lower lows). However, if you transform the colors to the HSV color space, you will observe, that the distribution for the saturation channel is the same for the regrade, as it is for the print. This is the relevant quantity to consider.
