What is ProRes RAW exactly, what can it do and how does it compare to BRAW? We did a side by side comparison of the Sony a7siii shooting in ProRes RAW to the Atomos Ninja V and the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6k shooting in Blackmagic Raw to a Samsung T5 SSD. Check out the results and comment below, what do you think looks better?
**This video was edited and uploaded in HDR, however it's my first time ever using an HDR workflow and I'm still learning the best way to do it and get it to look right on YouTube for both SDR and HDR. So yes, I know it LOOKS underexposed, but trust me it's not, it was all shot with a proper exposure. It was just graded as SDR on an HDR timeline, which turns out very improperly dark! So give me a break here guys, it'll be better the next time! If you want to see the side by side comparison footage with corrected luminance, watch it here: youtu.be/TPD91Eh_Dn8
