Sacramento 4K | Sony Xperia 1 Cinematic | Cinema Pro

Music: Tomorrow by Bensound

I wish I had more time to shoot beautiful downtown Sacramento. Captured this footage during my one hour visit. Mostly within two blocks from State Capitol building.

Shot on Sony Xperia 1 with Snoppa Atom gimbal pre firmware 55.0.A.2.278 update. All clips are taken with Cinema Pro app using Soft/Yellow40, Venice CS or Opaque Blue60/Yellow60 looks at 4K with 21:9 aspect ratio at 23.98FPS. I didn't apply any LUTs in LumaFusion app. Used it only to piece together all clips, add title and background music. Colour grading is straight from CinemaPro/CinemaAlta app.

Edit: I didn't notice while shooting stabilization was turned off in CinemaPro app.

I've no prior experience with cinematography. Also, this was my first time using gimbal, you may notice movements are flaky and stuttery. Really sorry about that. I wish CinemaPro app had 'Focus peaking' feature. Some of the shots are out of focus or not as sharp as I'd want them to be because I couldn't nail down focus accurately in super bright and sunny weather.


Feel free to drop a comment.

Made this video just to showcase ability of this phone. Xperia 1 is getting unnecessary bashing from some reviewers. I believe it isn't justified. Overall, I think this phone would be terrific in capable hands.
