Nuke 8 bit to 16bit Grayscale

Hey guys

Just nor sure on this I have brought a grayscale image into nuke 8 bit and want to render it out as 16 bit, so what I need to know is…….

A) does it change the bit to automaticly eg, as soon as I bring it into nuke its working with 32bit but just not all the information is there to use as a 32bit? if that makes sence

B) I heard of a method of adding a gradient to a B&W image and it gives it a full range? how does this work and how do you correct the colours back to orginal, but keeping the new range?

Thanks People!

remove jitter

Hello, I am trying to get the ‘remove jitter’ to remove a very slight up and down jitter on my film camera. It does not seem to do anything. Could someone recommend some values to try out?

Thankyou.

linking a tracker to a specific camera solve…

Hello everyone,

I’m not very good with nuke but ill try to explain what im doing best i can.

I need to remove tracking markers from a shot. What i’ve done is the following:

1) i created a clean plate of a marker that needs to be removed.
2) i rendered out that specific frame and reimported to nuke
3) I selected just the painted area of the clean frame with a bezier, and i then projected this clean ‘patch’ onto a card.

-my 3d setup works fine in the frame that i painted (335).
-the minute i move forward/backwards in frames the patch obviously shifts away from its place.

So to solve this I need to add a tracker node, and i want to use a solve (from the 3d tracking data) which is situated exactly where the patch should be.

I want to copy the position of the solve for the entire duration of the clip and apply that to the tracker so that my patch stays in the same place as the camera moves around in the clip…

does that make sense? sorry for being long…

Removing a Lens flare ?

Hi all,
I never had the oppitunity to remove a lens flare/glare from a shot.
My first knee-jerk reaction is to paint it out but there is a lot of paralex in the flare. For example, the flare is on a mans shirt which moves across the shirt onto the background curtain, then off screen.
Would this be treated as a "Scratch"??

What are the usually techniques used for this?
thanks,

referring the another channel

How can I blur and referring with the another channel?
For example,like ZBlur.
ZBlur is Blur with refferring the depth.Z channel.

I would like to do like as this with expression.
