SONY ILCE-7M2 white levels update #3601
Comments
@Beep6581 can you share the sample files ? .. if not all, the compressed LENR category is enough |
@iliasg sure, here they all are: https://filebin.net/3pk460dqp53ekgx6 -- Update, now there is a 7z there as well. |

}, @iliasg what do you think? |
To be honest there's just about no visible difference between these safe values and 16372. This includes comparisons using highlight reconstruction (CP, HC=200). Then again, as nothing appears to get lost, I'd say better to use these safe values... |
I just finished downloading .. I will take a look ASAP .. The LENR WLs are affected more than I could imagine for this model .. and this with only 2sec exposures !! .. what will happen with 30sec ??. |
@Beep6581 |
@iliasg I used the histogram to find safe white levels where I only allowed brightness levels with <~10 pixels in the frame. It seems like it cut off a lot of values but when I tested extreme highlight recovery in these clipped images as well as in real-life photos with clipping using my safe vs original values in camconst.json there was almost no noticeable difference. I'll take whatever you suggest. Please also see LibRaw/LibRaw#82 |
The ISO25600 value I got was from this https://i.imgur.com/w803N8a.png (uncompressed) and this https://i.imgur.com/GbaAC7q.png (compressed). |
The problem is that things will get worse with longer exposures .. If these samples was at longer exposure (say > 10sec) I would go for WL_25600 = 15200, WL_12800 =15700 etc because I think that even with extreme processing nothing is visible when the probability of magenta pixels is very small percentage of the total .. so I use 1000 instead of 10 as limiting population. It will be good to examine longer exposures .. Can we have any more samples ? I am not sure if we must cover the most extreme cases (30sec @ ISO25600) or just use a reasonable value like these WLs caculated from the not so long 2sec and suggest the users to use the "White-point correction" when problems occur. |
Another data point .. Sony reports in exif WL = 15360 for all ISOs 15872 + 512 =16384 (the 14bit limit) !! |
Sorry, I have not had time to get back with the new shots. I will probably do that after RT5. |
White levels measured by ISO and LENR and raw mode compressed/uncompressed (firmware version 3.30 allows uncompressed mode).
