How To Best Setup Your Sony a6500 For Filmmaking | RehaAlev

These are my favorite settings for shooting video with my Sony a6500. If you want to get cinematic looking footage without the need for color grading your footage extensively, try setting up your camera like I did.

    @reha alev I need help i am barely starting to get into photograhy but i cant decide between sony a6000 or sony a6300 or the newer one. I do need video but i dont think 4k is that important i don't think also my pc does 4k i will be using premium pro to edit vids. i want to make work out vids or vids when i go hiking and travel make cool vids of my family mainly since i am barely starting and learn in the processes. I will also be taking pics i was thinking get the sony a6000kit and get the sigma 30mm 1.4 and another lens or go with the a6300 with the sigma or 6500 just kit lens but since i am just starting is all that extra stuff really important should i just go with the cheapest and learn i have never used the cameras so idk if the difference is that big. what do you think i should do advice would be greatly appreciated. is the body important can the 6000 perform the same as the other with good lenses??

    Hey. Question for anyone that knows. I don't know my framing before I press record. The screen looks like for photos, and when I press record it narrows vertically for 16:9. Also the guidelines don't appear before I press record. I've never seen the Standby appear on my camera, somehow I feel it maybe has to do with that.

    Hello Reha) Can you tell me or maybe help. I have a6500, sigma 30 1.4. I try video in low light (night club). Settings is f1.4/50fps/shutter50/FHD/ iso 600-1000/ i try all PP, and try slog2 slog3/ also try no PP. And in all cases I have a noise, especially in black colors. where it is more where that is less. but noise.What settings or what to change you could advise me. Thank you :)

    Andrey Pereskokov try overexposing +1 or +2 stops when shooting in Slog, it helps with the noise in the shadows. Also, make sure your shutter speed is double your frame rate for proper motion blur! Hope that helps.

    I love your videos.. Question: I am setting up my a6500 and when I get to movie/S&Q Motion, the camera tells me that "This operation or setting not available as follows". It then lists 'Shoot Mode' and second 'Aperture Priority.'. Any idea what's going on? Thanks!

    Not all functions are available in all modes. If you let the camera handle most features automatically, it won't allow for manual adjustments of some of the settings.
