![]() The big question regarding this newly remastered release of The Fifth Elementremains: is the picture quality an improvement over the previous, substandard release? Indeed it is every problem present in the previous release has been corrected the disc delivers a pristine image that pops off of the screen with amazing depth and stunning imagery. Oh well, at the very least, The Fifth Element stands as a remarkable achievement in imaginative filmmaking unafraid of simply being blissfully fun. It's a shame that she hasn't built on her fantastic performance in The Fifth Element and parlayed that into roles that have played to her considerable talents, rather than being content with roles in video game adaptations. This was also Milla Jovovich's breakout role she proves to be a capable and inventive actress. Don't get me started on the strange collection of oddities present in the film's stunning opera house scene that takes place on an intergalactic cruise ship. He dresses like a figure skater, has hair shaped like a tube sticking out of his forehead and wears more Lipstick than J.Lo thus ensuring that he remains one of the more normal characters in the film. Chris Tucker's Ruby Rhod, either the funniest sidekick in science fiction history or the most annoying, prances around shrieking like a stuck pig for the majority of the film. The Fifth Element is seriously strange, but it is also an extremely enjoyable science fiction flick. Dallas will have to team up with an eccentric cast of characters including Leeloo (Milla Jovovich), a nonsense-talking runaway with a secretive past, and Ruby Rhod (Chris Tucker), an effeminate, hyperactive, intergalactic talk-show host who never shuts up. Only the mysterious Fifth Element can save the Earth from impending doom. On the edge of our solar system, a mysterious entity has joined forces with the evil Jean-Baptiste Emanuel Zorg (Gary Oldman), a corrupt industrialist who sounds eerily like Ross Perot, in a plot to destroy the planet. Besson's hero is Korben Dallas (Bruce Willis), a former soldier who is reluctantly recruited into a half-baked attempt at protecting the Earth from an alien attack while kicking ass and taking names along the way. Is this updated release a big enough improvement to erase the bad taste left by the first release?īeautiful matte paintings and futuristic scenes are perfectly rendered in this amazing Blu-ray disc of The Fifth Element.įor those of you not familiar with the film itself, The Fifth Element is a bizarre, singular science fiction film that was the life-long pet project of filmmaker Luc Bessson. FIFTH ELEMENT UPGRADEHere we are a year later, and Sony has corrected these mistakes and re-released the title with a new whiz-bang transfer while offering a free upgrade program for all owners of the previous problematic version. This flawed Blu-ray release was wrought with problems that ranged from poor source material, to numerous compression and encoding issues. One title in particular was the target of the majority of the vitriolic disgust aimed at these lackluster releases: The Fifth Element.

![]() A little post processing in photoshop after could clean that up I suppose. I've seen issues before stitching dark skies with stadium lights on a football field trying to get exposure matched across images. So you try to match exposure across the images but both programs have some ability blend exposure across frames also. So all the images were shot in portrait mode, RAW, and processed in Lightroom first including lens correction. I wonder how the programs would cope with a change of ISO/noise/shutter speed for the top half of the image to give a cleaner sky and background stitching might have been affected and there might have been an untidy transition. #Autopano giga vs hugin iso#This is the sort of thing that I would have tried using DxO ViewPoint to correct after creating the pano but it seems that PTGui has already done it.Īlso, given the relatively large part of the final picture occupied by the people who are close to camera, it was not necessarily a bad thing to raise the ISO and increase shutter speed to reduce subject motion. Aside from differences in the masking and joining of images, the Autopano image has left the closer people with wider-looking heads. In those two pictures it seems that the two programs have done different corrections of volumetric deformation. Same files with ptgui, bit more distorted for some reason so I'm still trying to figure it out why. Lady in bottom left turned her head, masking saved me. Last week at the ESPN Wide World of Sports in Orlando, Worlds Cheer competition. I rarely use a tripod although I would going beyond 200mm.Īutopano, 14 images, 1dx, 24-70ii, iso 12800, 1/1000, duh wasn't paying attention Quality of images will play a huge role and overlap with either. I'm somewhat a novice with ptgui it's not too difficult to figure out it's quirks, while I'ved used autopano used for 2+ years. Someone is going to say microsoft ICE, I think it has some creative functions but no where near the stitching features of autopano or ptgui. Both have features to controlling exposure, blending, the one thing I've learned is never crop images or level images prior to importing for better stitching. #Autopano giga vs hugin windows#The autopano interface is much more refined, ptgui is just littered with windows and a bit clumsy. Cropping on ptgui is stupid, autopano wins here with easily selecting the image and setting rotation values. Masking is tough to compare, anything with moving images like people in a crowd will be a challenge. Masking could go both ways, ptgui uses a paint method vs autopano is a little vague with just stamping points on various areas. ![]() Autopano also calculates the quality of stitch points and you delete as necessary to imporve stitching. Matching up specific points or comparing a selected area between images is very powerful with autopano, ptgui as far as I could figure is point by point. The control points editing are by far superior to control between images than ptgui. I think Autopano is easier to use and produces a better image imo. So given my situation, do you guys recommend one option over the other? What are their relative pro’s and con's? However, I am thinking of doing more gigapixel images with a telephoto lens (I already got a pano head specifically for this). Never any of those 360*180 degree virtual reality shots. ![]() I tried both with some simple panorama and they both seem to work relatively well. I’m currently trying to decide between getting Autopano Giga and PTGui for my panoramas. ![]() ![]() Knowledge, written in a simplistic way to help aspiring writers.
