Thank you for this video! I'm new to videography and this was a really great beginner-friendly tutorial. Looking forward to the HLG3 video!
I'm pretty new to shooting video and I decided to start shooting with HLG3 because SLOG2 just felt like a lot of work. Thank you so much for making SLOG2 feel less daunting and for teaching us what that M.M indicator meant. Definitely learned a lot from this!

Do you have a full video of your camera settings for the A7iii? Also, how do you get your skin to look like that far as looking cinematic ?

does sony a7III HLG3 have a base ISO? also which focus mode du you reccomend?
suggest which picture profile is better in sony a7 m 3
Do you know if A7III have 2nd base/native ISO for Slog2? I’ve read in various places that it indeed has 2nd native ISO but each time they mention some different values and I don’t really think they are correct as I can see a lot of grain when using any of them.
so is the a7riii an 8 bit camera also?
Good break down of s log2 by the way what lens are you using?

I didn't understand about flashing??.. Youre saying that.. +2.0 thing is kept flashing?? It is still flashing when the nd filter is still on though.. What part are you saying about flashing!! Please answer
I erred recently, under exposed, filming an amazing ice structure that looked like a Janus head in a cataract in a raging creek and the magenta cast on the snow in shadow is baked, can't get rid of it. I can go back but I'll never see that head again...Doh!
do you have a personal reason why you like or prefer s-log2 over of s-log 3 or maybe other picture profiles like HLG?
@meliorstudios

You’re able to recover more Color and contrast on slog2 than on slog3 without the introduction of noise and Color blotching due to the Sony A7iii 8 bit Color. If you don’t perfectly expose for slog3 too on 8bit you will really struggle to grade, though with slog2 there’s more forgiveness in the exposure. However for 10 bit cameras like the fx3 or A7siii, slog3 is a must to use! I only recommend you use HLG3 when you can’t expose by +2.0 stops with slog 2 This is usually in darker situations
does this apply to the a6600 as well? or the 6000 series in general?
@meliorstudios

Yes!
Would it be easier if I put auto ISO with +2 exposure for different light situations ?
@meliorstudios
6 ай бұрын
Unfortunately this would cause the iso to be pushed to really high limits in darker situations which will introduce a lot of noise into your footage. I recommend always keeping the iso to 800 and max 1600 or 2000 and then adjusting other parameters to fix your exposure
How have you been exposing for 10 bit? Sometimes when traveling I leave it at 0 and it comes out underexposed when converted. Love your videos! Thanks!

For 10bit on cameras like the Sony Fx3 or A7siii, I recommend shooting with Slog3. And to expose this, it is advised to expose for +1.7 stops roughly

Didn't get that clearly - why to overexpose by +2.0 MM, instead of trying to catch correct exposure around 0.0 ?
@meliorstudios
7 ай бұрын
Different gammas need to be exposed at different exposure levels. SLOG2 produces the cleanest results with the best dynamic range when exposed by +2.0. However something like HLG3 needs to be exposed at +-0.0 for best results and something like Slog3 produces the cleanest results around +1.7
I’m on a Sony a7sii and it doesn’t let me go lower then 1600 :( am I doing something wrong?
@get_the_good
8 ай бұрын
native iso for a7sii is 1600 so when you're recording in log, you can go lower than 1600
The number was flashing since the beginning guys be carful to not use slog2 correctly specially when you filming a special event or occasion 😂
i dont have nd filter 😪
