+Livingroom Gear Demos thanks! I try to shoot in the middle, even a little overexposed. Not near as close to overexposure as when shooting in SLOG3 though.

This is actually the best general description of Log profiles. I’ve had to find out the hard way about banding and grading artifacts if you don’t use an external recorder.

I have watch this video about four times over the last few months and you make me laugh every time bro your sense of humor is on point with the Canon pitchfork brigade. Thanks for taking the time to put this video out there I’m going to try this picture profile on my a 6500 happy new year brother

Biggest difficulty is colour grading for me. I find using Slog2 and running film convert is quickest and easiest as it has the slog2 profile all ready to go. very minor tweaking if any after I apply the LUT. - I try to keep exposure around +1 stop and never had any issues thus far in post. Waiting for your colour grading video to see which is a faster process while maximizing DR. thanks for the Vid!

😍 I MADE LUTS FOR THIS PICTURE PROFILE!: whoismatt.com/luts HOW TO EXPOSE THIS PICTURE PROFILE: A lot of the questions I receive on this video are about how to properly expose your videos when shooting with it. I generally keep my exposure between .3 and .7 stops over on the built in exposure meter. I also film with zebras on and set to 100+. If the video looks bright, but it is only saying .7 over and there are no zebras then I know it will look good. Hope that helps you! :)

Matt WhoisMatt Johnson Hey can we use two picture profiles in the same video.. For eg. Cine 4 and slog2??

@marcosmontero7141

6 жыл бұрын

Hi Matt, On editing do you then lower the exposure to what it would have been 0.0 on camera or do you keep footage with that +0.3/0.7 on the edit? My initial guess is that the reason you overexpose to 0.3/0.7 is to capture more detail on the shadows but then you would normaly bring in back to 0.0, is that right?

Thanks for sharing this Matt. I have re-ordered the A6300 and it all have the same profile, so I will look forward to trying this out.

I was watching the philip bloom video about picture profiles for the sony 7sii and he was saying to change the gamma to cine4 too but it was using the PP1 settings..

I just got a second hand A7 II, and it's my first experience getting into video and the sony system, coming from Nikon and Fuji for photo specifically. I have been playing around with some settings, dropping them on the computer and haven't dug the results. I have a big project coming next month so this is exactly what I wanted, a setting suggestion that would allow me to go to different conditions and be able to get going fast making minor adjustments to the exposure, white balance and focus and be done with that. Thanks, I have graded sony footage in the past so I'm not too worried about the post, but I was worried in the filming stage on how to get a good recording.

Hey Matt, great video as always, How do you handle the white balance for the weddings? do you set it on each scene day/night, indoors/outdoors?

Hey Matt. I love all your vídeos dude! Just a little question about the PPF. Do you convert SGammut3Cine to Rec 709 before grading?

another thing to note is that if you are mixing it with DJI drone footage you can more easily match the look in post since DJI allows for Cinelike-D shooting

Thanks for the great tutorials Matt. I would be very interested in how you gauge WB on your shoots. I don't shoot weddings, but I do shoot in varied locations and find things like grey cards, colour sheets (and I have an expodisc), to be too much time wasting when my work is so run-and-gun. What's your method?

Finally! It's like back in the old fs100/700 days and all the custom PP's that were on the forums. I remember having so much fun playing with other people's settings. People don't realize that you can actually set up some of the other picture profiles to essentially mimic S-Log if you know what you're doing with your Gamma, Knee and Black Level settings, etc., without, as you said, the limitations of using Sony's log profile, the way they've implemented it. Most assume that the ISO limit is simply because it's the "native" sensitivity level of the sensor, so the D.R. is best there. And originally that was partially true, but what I also think they're trying to do is simulate the "Cine EI (Exposure Index)" mode on the CineAlta cameras, which locks you into the native sensitivity of the camera too (but also limits/opens up more things on the CineAlta cameras as well, which is why I consider it "simulating" the Cine EI mode). It's all with a good heart though, as Sony just wants to give you the best image possible... IF you know what you're doing, and/or are able to deal/work with the limitations for your specific work-flow, which... not everyone knows how, wants to, or is able to deal with, given their specific needs. Your example is a great one and I think speaks for a large amount of shooters; which is why it's good to know how and when to dive into the PP settings and change 'em around a bit. Know your camera's strengths AND weaknesses, accept and work with them to deliver the best end result possible. Super dooper ultra mega flat video profiles are not always the end all be all ways to shoot. Sure sometimes it is, but just as often, it isn't.

Thanks so much for this simple trick. With my ZV-1 I can only use the S-Gamut3.Cine color mode in combination with the Cine2 gamma setting. But it is way better than the default PP6 combination “Cine2 gamma + Movie color mode” and even better than the often recommended combination of “Cine2 gamma + Pro color mode”. I watched countless tutorials for hours because I wanted something easy to shoot with (I neither have the time nor the experience for playing around with exposure settings when shooting) and easy to edit (because I don’t have the time to play with color wheels for hours when editing). With the combination of Cine2 gamma + S-Gamut3.Cine color mode I have great dynamic range, but still only need three or four clicks (using manual correction, no LUTs) in DaVinci Resolve to achieve a nice naturally saturated look with perfect skin tones.

Great video! As an amateur, I've been using PP5 (Cine1) which seems more manageable to use than S-Log2 which I sometimes struggle with in terms of exposure and often frustrated in post grading. Would you suggest moving to MattFlat? Also, do you have a video tutorial on how to get a proper exposure with MattFlat (or maybe another Cine profile)? Thanks!

Thanks for this info Matt. Just picked up an a7riii for myself and wanted to know if you had any experience with it and if these settings translate over to that model as well?

Awesome! I tried shooting some video with SLOG3 but ended up with alot of noise. I was shooting outside. But let me get this straight ( IM NEW TO THIS :D ) - slog3 gives me the opportunity to color grade more accurate afterwards? or??? If you could explain the abc to it?

@whoismatt

Slog3 allows for more dynamic range, so your highlights will not be blown out and your shadows will not be too dark.

AtillaZilla Don't waste your time with log on that camera, looks like shit and you'll never get the colors back right in post. Sure it retains slightly more detail, but at the expense of everything else, most likely due to being 8 bit.

@EXOOfficial

@@ProfoundProductions this is a good piece of info. :)

GREAT!

Very interesting video thanks. Slightly confused Matt, I thought the general recommendation from Sony for the Slog2 curve is an underexposed image, (not an almost overexposed image) having 18% grey sitting at 32% IRE (compared to 42% for a standard rec709 curve), in order to maximize dynamic range. Granted some people (eg. Alister Chapman at xdcam-user) prefer giving it 1 to 2 stops more than that in order to reduce noise in the shadows, especially when using 8 bit cameras like the a7sII.

Smashed it ! thanks a lot :)

Hi Matt! Apologies if you've answered this in another video recently, but are these still the picture profile settings you would recommend for the A7s ii if you were still shooting with that camera?

any tips on exposure and white balance as you hit your various shooting scenarios while using PP8 (cine4)?

@whoismatt

Hey! I shoot .3 to .7 overexposed on the built in light meter, nothing crazy. The camera loves light!

Hii Matt again. I also use Cine4 because with this profile i can control iso otherwise with slog-2 min Iso 1600 then lost dept of field.

Thanks Matt. May I know what profile you would use in A7II, couse in this model it has no PP8 and no S-Gamut cine3 in color mode. What I did, is change the setting in PP1 and make the color mode into S-Gamut. Does that work the same?

Any luts for this profile? I'm losing my find trying to grade some of the shots properly. Mainly skintones.

Thanks for posting this. Your reasons for not wanting to shoot SLOG aren't that far from those shooting a film. In a sense, much independent filmmaking is like shooting a wedding. Not a lot of light, changing conditions, not much time because no permit, etc... So this is spot on help.
