Canon's Cinestyle vs Panasonic's Cinema

Sorry about the late post- Google's server was down all day...

Canon 600D Technicolor CineStyle versus GH2 Cinema Mode from Andrew Reid on Vimeo.

To color correct or not to

"We'll fix it in post", is a much heard expression and its meaning is becoming more and more prevalent in video and filmproduction. The ability to correct and manipulate (the look of) footage has become more mainstream since the advent of tools such as Magic Bullet's Look or Colorista.

I wouldn't call myself a knowledgeable color corrector at all and I feel I make too little use of it. I have used presets from 'Looks' on a few clips and the response on Vimeo was so much more enthusiastic compared to 'unmanipulated footage'... it was a great stimulus to explore more of that area.
