Awesome question! This would’ve been shot on his a7sii which has been hailed as the Low-Light King for some time. Also, provided he has his Sigma 35mm f/1.4 available (which would be the lens I’m assuming he’s using for a majority of the shoot) I’d say he’s probably pushing iso slightly but not over doing it. With that camera, he’d probably only need to be around the 1600 to 3200 range is my guess? This is why he’s able to keep the noise levels very low, practically unnoticeable. I used to film all of my cinematics on my a7riii which at 4k 24p had very similar low light performance to the a7sii. I was able to get night shots on my 35 1.4 with the aperture wide open, no problem. These are all just assumptions but they’re also educated guesses from my personal experience 👍🏼 Hope this helps!
@@apexpixel ah okay thanks man! I bough a a6500 yesterday. I also want to shot in low light but its pretty hard.. do you also have great pictures with ISO 1600-3200? I got a lot of rush with 800 iso.
Ah yeah, transitioning to full frame will help a lot with night shots. What kind of lenses are you using? I’d say the biggest thing is to be selective with your shots and shoot where there’s some sort of light source. I invested in a set of light tubes and those are amazing for night shots too!
@@apexpixel Thanks first of all for the answers! I use most of the time the Sigma 35mm.but also have the series lens (18mm-55mm). Now it looks much better than at the beginning :D Which Picture Profile do you use in low light & which in "normal" conditions? Hartnett doesn't give me an answer for the 6500 & I think that's the hardest setting. Have 2 favorites by now, but would like to know what he or you use.
@@xtaatix9729 back when I used my a7rii to film at night (probably only slightly better performer in lowlight than an a6500) I would shoot in a custom “still” picture profile that makeartnow discovered. This resulted in significantly lower noise in darker situations (I’ve linked the video in the description) Now with the a7siii, I shoot exclusively in Cine3 + Slog3 for my color & picture profile. Even in the dead of night, the dual iso means I can shoot at 12,800iso and get a super clean image! In the daytime I prefer Slog2 / Slog3 for the highest dynamic range 👍🏼
His creations are really awe inspiring most of it comes from understanding photography. The best videographers don’t just isolate video as their main source of understanding but have a mix of design and artistic understanding.
Couldn’t agree more! There’s some much to do with color, composition, lighting, context, and so much more that all come together to really encapsulate his style!
Just got here searching up "hartnett media reaction", and man you have a way higher quality channel for as many subs as you have, here's one more and good luck
Something I'm a little confused about is how he films the shots when the cars are driving. Does he use a minivan with a sliding door, or a pick up truck, or literally just films out the window in the passenger seat of a normal car?
All of the above are possibly correct. I prefer shooting out of a minivan as this allows you to get closest to the floor which gives the clips a sense of hastened speed with the increased motion blur from the ground. In most cases, hanging out of a car window is the only option but still works wonders 👍🏼
Nice video! Do you think these low light performance is also possible with the Sony A7III ? I have seen the behind the scenes, and i think he doesnt use any picture profile as S-Log or something.
Great question! The a7sii is pretty well regarded as the low-light monster but an a7iii should fair great in low-light when paired with a fast lens (35mm 1.4 is my choice 😉). I’ve had super impressive results from my a7riii in lowlight as well. With these “older” cameras, I’d recommend shooting in Still for your picture profile as slog-2 is really used for higher dynamic range scenes. So where there’s less light in the scene, it’s not so imperative that you capture in a flat profile. MakeArtNow made an awesome video on this showing that the Still profile performed best in lowlight situations. (I’ll link his video in the description for you) At the end of the day, probably the biggest factor is that he’s externally recording to an Atomos display which I believe allows him the ability to record in 10-bit color. This flexibility in post combined with awesome composition, edit pacing, amazing cars, and smooth / curated movements lead to an insane piece of art. Hope this helps! Get out there and start shooting! 🤙🏼
I have a question.. What do you think about his Settings? Whats the highest Iso?

Hartnett is a legend in the industry, also great video.
Absolutely! His work is so incredibly detail oriented and not to mention, very pleasing to the eye!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it 🙂

This guy is my one of favorite automotive videographers, if not my FAVORITE. It’s easy to see why
No question! I absolutely love his nighttime style which is never easy to pull off with such little light to go around! He makes it look so easy!
dated. is better
Absolutely love dated’s work but they’re both incredible 🤪
Already know this is gunna be a legendary video🔥🔥
🙈 You know it!

This might be the nicest comment I’ve received yet! Thank you so much for the support 😁🙏🏼 I’ll do my best to keep it rolling 👍🏼👍🏼

@@apexpixel Right, thank you!
Dopeee
Appreciate it! 🤝
I like your commentary very much
I hope to be able to give explanations from other photography masters👍
would love to get back to these at some point and maybe try replicating some photographer styles in lightroom too!

Woyshnis Media way too overhyped...
Hartnett Media is insane tho!
