From the review, I heard that the whites were blowing out (particularly in bright white) - color information is lost to some degree. Great advice, though. Recording it as it is and fixing it in post probably won't create any noticeable problems. The camcorder does not have any on-camera color settings.</p> <p>I did want to see, however, if such a mechanical gadget exists. It sounds simple to be able to Google and find a camera filter that de-saturates colors - I was wrong there.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/de-saturation-video-filter#post-51268 Thu, 08 Oct 2009 17:34:55 +0000 grinner 51268@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p> You can play with in-camera settings. Go by your scopes in post and simply reduce chroma as required... or per your taste. As long as it's not blooming out of your camera, you'll be fine.</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/de-saturation-video-filter#post-51252 Thu, 08 Oct 2009 10:41:44 +0000 XTR-91 51252@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p>I recently got a good deal on a broken JVC GZ-MG505 (3-CCD) camcorder and plenty of discounts on JVC's repair service. Viewing its color performance (<a href="http://www.camcorderinfo.com/content/JVC-GZ-MG505-Camcorder-Review/Performance.htm" title="JVC GZ-MG505 Camcorder Review">camcorderinfo.com</a>), I heard that the Everio GZ-MG505 produces a nice and clear image, but with a neon (over-saturated) color reproduction. Good image with one side effect - the colors are not accurate.</p> <p>I've heard of filters that will polarize and increase saturation levels. Are there any video filters available that will decrease the saturation level with the apropriate size for my camcorder.</p>
