PICTURE PROFILE » PP7 » SETTING » GAMMA » S-Log2
PP7 is the default profile for S-Log2, Note that only S-Log2 is supported when recording RAW.
Once the camera is set to the desired frame rate, then connect to the Odyssey7Q
Set the S&Q button for RAW High Speed
3
MENU » OTHERS » RAW S&Q BUTTON SET » 4K/2K SUPER SLOW
(BACK) » REC Command » ON
NOTE: In 4K Super Slow the camera only outputs a maximum of 4K 60p, thus this mode will use internal buering, and then will need to playback the footage to an Odyssey7Q. In 4 Super Slow, the Odyssey7Q Trigger must be set to Camera.
MENU » RECORD » TRIGGER » CAMERA
NOTE: For 2K up to 240fps sustained, or 4K up to 60p sustained, but 4K 100/120 7-8 second burst.

MENU » CAMERA SET » SLOW AND QUICK » RAW 2K SUPER SLOW » EXECUTE
Select your desired frame rate*:
NTSC
PAL
TIME SAVER TIP: A quicker way of doing this is once the S&Q is set to RAW HIGH SPEED, you can press and hold the S&Q button, then once the RAW Super Slow frame is highlighted, you can now switch from 120 to 240. (or 100 to 200 in record.)
TO ACCESS HIGH FRAME RATES:
120 240
100 200
» Press the S&Q button » Select 120fps or 240fps
The Odyssey7Q also has the ability of recording the buered 4K 100/120 p from the FS700. If you wish to record this set the camera to 4K RAW, and enable S&Q. Then the Odyssey7Q will record 4K100/120, for up to a 4 second burst.
RAW 4K SUPER SLOW 120FPS AND 100 FPS
i
Start Trigger - > 440 Frames End Trigger -> 440 Frames End Half Trigger -> 220 Frames
Start Trigger Processes 440 frames from when RECord button is pressed. End Trigger Sends a buer of the 440 frames prior to hitting the REC button. End Half Trigger sends a buer of the 220 frames prior to hitting the REC button.
120fps is 3.7 seconds record time - (440 frames) - 60fps playback 100fps is 4.4 seconds - (440 frames) - 50fps playback

FS700 Post Production
Apple ProRes 422 (HQ)
The Odyssey7Q records in Apple ProRes 422 (HQ) which is a 10 bit 4:2:2 220Mb compressed codec. This will allow for high quality recording while avoiding high data rates of working with uncompressed video. (DPX)
Native Apple ProRes 422 Support
Adobe CC 2014* Final Cut Pro 7 Autodesk Smoke
Apple FCP X, Aperture Black Magic DaVinci Resolve Sony Vegas
Cineform Studio The Foundry Nuke
To playback Apple ProRes 422 (HQ) files in QuickTime Player X, the files must be first run through our Apple ProRes 422 (HQ) Utility to be optimized for the recently released Apple ProRes 422 (HQ) Codec update. If files are not optimized, then they will play the first second of audio only. This is not an issue when playing in FCPX.
SONY FS700 RAW SUPPORT (DNG SEQUENCES)
All FS700 RAW recording on the Odyssey7Q is recorded as a 12-bit linear CinemaDNG file. With DNG files, timecode and clip metadata is stored in every frame, as well as in the XML file within each clip. All audio is recorded 48Hz 16 bit Uncompressed WAV audio.
It is important to correctly set the white balance of the camera, as this is baked into the RAW file.

FS700 RAW: DEALING WITH RAW FILES
Note that FS700 RAW files are Linear, thus the files need a Gamma 2.2 correction in order to look correct. You may notice when you first import your files that they appear very dark before correction.
FS700 DAVINCI RESOLVE IMPORT SETTINGS
1. Right click on the file and select “Edit CinemaDNG Codec Settings”
2. Then under the CAMERA RAW select be sure CinemaDNG is selected from the drop down menu.
3. Set the Decode using method to CinemaDNG Default* (Also be sure your project is setup correctly)
4. Set the White Balance to As Shot
5. Set the Color Space to Rec709
6. Set the Gamma to Rec709
7. Leave Highlight Recovery o
8. Click Apply
The media pool CameraRAW settings are the same as the ones in the color page and these are designed for individual clip adjustment so its better to first set the ‘project settings’, ‘camera RAW’ as you need for the whole project.
Select ‘Project Settings’, ‘Camera RAW’, ‘CinemaDNG’ and make sure the ‘Decode using’ is set to either ‘CinemaDNG Default’ or “Camera Metadata’
The “Camera Metadata’ is the default and the best place to start if you need to change an individual clip with camera RAW.
The Media pool settings are helpful if you have a mix of dierent clip types, you can sort by codec, select a group and adjust.
For you Convince Convergent Design has Generated several example LUTs that can be applied to your RAW footage. Keep in mind these LUTs are an approximation, and may need adjusting depending on your application.
These LUTs are available in the Firmware/Downloads section of the Convergent Design website.
*Also note that using camera metadata or CinameDNG default is also supported.
