It's a bit weird, but i have a show that is providing us with excessively noisey rushes. They claim they're looking at the footage on a grade 1 CRT at their end and cannot see any noise but when i look at it on my grade 1, my JVC DTR24L4D HD LCD and a consumer LCD i can clearly see a fair amount of noise, more than i would want. The rushes they are providing are HDCAM shot on a Sony HDW-790P which i would have thought would be able to give pretty clean blacks. Because the rushes are 1080/50i and they are viewing on a SD CRT this will naturally make the picture they see look a little less noisey right? The footage is interior in a mock-nightclub, so there are areas that are lit and others which are in shadow.
In Blue Only mode i can see the noise very clearly although they claim they have also looked at it in blue only too. Other than by pure visual inspection and a monitor just showing the blue signal are there any other ways to test for noise in an image? I have access to HD Tek scopes etc.
Any thoughts welcome
Cheers
Andi
