Can somebody me explain the 4 video modes?

Can somebody explain the 4 video modes (natural, saturation, RAW, night)?
And, if possible, post (short) examples of videos of this modes, so we can see the differences.

Wim,
Send a PM to @Onlook

He has the Breeze and is very knowlegable about video. I only have the Typhoon H, and although it has the same video modes, they may be different from the Breeze.

Hi Wim,

I'll have a look, probably tomorrow. They're likely to be just filters applied over the video and I admit I haven't experimented with them yet.

Give me a day or so and I'll make a quick video switching between them to show you what they're like.

Hi Wim,

Sorry for the slight delay! Here you go... there isn't much in the way of difference, especially between raw and natural, presumably because it was a "natural" scene. I'll try night next time I'm able.

Onlook, many thanks for your efforts!! Great.
I will have a very close look to the different video modes.
Perhaps I will later add some results...

No worries at all; when I get the right combination of the Scottish weather and light, I'll do some more!

 

[Wim]

I'm curious!
And interested in the Scottish weather and light combi...

Thanks Onlook for the quite professional comparison, that confirmed my own (unprofessional) tests.

In the video I posted here: Instagram video by Erik • Nov 22, 2016 at 9:18pm UTC you can see the saturated mode and in the last part the raw setting. Light was still the same.

My conclusion so far:

• natural: Adds a bit of blue and green saturation.
• saturation: saturation for all colors is higher.
  Especially strong when you have a nice warm sunlight. I noticed that when I turned the Breeze into the sunlight (less saturation) and back (sun behind the Breeze, strong saturation effect). The saturation effect changed dramatically. This is probably linked to the brightness setting.
• raw: No filter on the camera video.
• night: To be validated.
  I did an evening test just after sunset (still quite bright) with the night setting, but I can't notice any real change or improvement. I didn't change the setting to compare as I wanted to test the follow-mode in low light conditions. This means the video will not really help you as you can't compare yourself, sorry.

Thanks, Nebucat, that helps me quite a bit.
But I am still curious for the final comparison of the 4 video modes, bij video stills.
