I’ve watched ton of these and always forget. This is the most direct video I’ve seen so thank you
quick and straight to the point, thank you
I loved this video and your assistant was so funny in it. Great work you guys! 🎉
Thank you guys for explaining it to us ! Good job ! Until I viewed this video, I had NO idea what each PP is and what kinda image it will deliver. I think I will use PP11 as this profile looks the best. Thanks again
This is great. I have no idea what PP means this video explained it perfectly. Thank you!
I’d love to see a separate video for each picture profile.

Which profile is best for cooking videos?
Found your video, great general explanation for a walk through.
Zy, love your videos! Can you please explain PP1 and superwhites? I just can’t find anywhere on the internet what is the proper way to recover the superwhites in Premiere or any other editing environment.
Thank you, this is what I needed
Perfect video!
Appreciate the explanation
Thanks a lot! Does PP7 give you the most dynamic range for color grading?
this was great and straightforward. Ive been searching for something like this for the past few weeks... thx!! (side question: is the guy in the white shirt the same guy who does the awesome feng shui videos? )
I have a Sony RX10 Mark4 and it only goes to PP9. Is there a way to add PP10 to this camera? Firmware upgrade perhaps? Thanks.
Very helpful…Thanks!!!
Hi, I shot on PP10 and when I import in premier pro cc its not showing that profile. how to do the right setting to get the pp10 colors?
What is that piece connecting your audio interface to the FX3? I really want to get one!
Thank you!
Well explained .Only issue i have is PP10 i 4K is great on the Sony TV ,kicks in as it should . But transferring 8 bit HLG to You Tube is a failure . Just can not work out a workflow to get the You Tube hdr to kick in . Only have a rx100 M7 so only 8 bit
Thank you
Really really good video! But I am trying to get to the picture profile options in the menu on my A7 IV. It would be great if this video started with navigating to that part of the menu. Its harder to find than I think it should be.

I made a couple custom Picture profiles for beginners which will give you great color without color grading, they are cold Sony Film Simulations based on the Picture Profile menus, you can check out the videos on my Channel
I have a7ii should put my camera on pp7 ? I'm not good at Color grading
Nicely explained. Thank you. PP11 for me (most of the time) but........?
Pp2 better for low light?
Appreciate the explanation, Thank you for your explanation. lets try 1 by 1 and how to shoot properly and edit properly in FCPX ... PLEASEEEEEEEEEE>>>>
for the wedding/ photography which profile would be ideal ?

I'm going to go out on a limb, but I'd say 'PP 11'. It could be customized, but straight out of the camera, it will provide a pleasing image. Plus, it saves time - no Post required.
For a idiot like me that knows very little you guys were great to explain this to me. Now I know what PP's are and why they exist ...... Thank you. 😊

Yes, add a S between the A and the 7 of your camera.
So what is best for begineers who dont really colour grade? PP1 or 2?

He said it in the video. PP1 is designed for videos. PP2 is designed for still images. Therefore, use PP1 for videos and PP2 for pictures.
PP? couldn't use other names?
My prob is on Sony a7iv if I’m in video and enable pp11 when I quick switch back to stills it’s still in pp11 I don’t want that because I’m shooting raw.

When shooting in raw it doesn't pay attention to any picture profile you have set.

@@KNOWNSTUDIO-8K-Walking-Tours This is incorrect. When shooting RAW with an S-LOG picture profile, the GAMMA is affected. Best to use different settings for video and photos (late model Sony cameras support this).
I always felt scared about video and put everything in full automatic, log footage and strange words like that seems frightening, but not anymore:-) Please continue explaining these horrible words for dummies like me :-)

In 24/7 LIVE studio environment with controlled lighting and no post-process streaming, our standard is to use PP2.
This videos way too short for this subject but good head start for most people like me.

Yeah, the picture profile menu is very complex and offers great control, that why I made a couple custom Picture profiles for beginners which will give you great color without color grading, they are cold Sony Film Simulations based on the Picture Profile menus, you can check out the videos on my Channel
I feel like the "still" color mode is one of the best for video on sony cameras and almost no one uses it.....
I use PP5, but only because mu Sony A6600 does not have PP11
I'm a big fan of your channel, but I really thing you should have not called the profiles "PP1, PP2, etc." The PP slots are just that... slots. They're not actually picture profiles like Rec.709 or S-Log2, S-Log3, etc. You can change PP1 to be S-Log3 if you want.

No. PP means picture profile. But you can still customize them depending on your environment.
I use PP10 for real estate
Very helpful... too many creators jump ahead and go too fast, thanks.
3:05 :)
you are now looking at pepe 2, heheh lol, fun.
I like PP1, movie mode better than PP11
Questions from a rank beginner - 1) Can I use PP3 straight out of camera with zero post production? 2) Can I shoot a talking head video in PP10 with HLG2 and Color Mode 709 and use that footage straight out of camera without any post production (color grading or correction or applying any LUTS)?
Ps! As a non-native English user I find it difficult to understand what your assistant says. He should speak slower and more pronounced.

Sorry but I can't clearly understand the English of the 2nd speaker. It's a little bit choppy. In the pp10 I didn't get any information.
I'm not sure why you'd feature someone with such a heavy accent
