    Hey, I felt like I had to drop a comment ! Just found out about you like a week ago, and I'm pretty amazed by the top quality of your videos, the clarity in your explanations but also and especially by your peacefulness, which almost feels like a blessing. Subbed, can't wait to keep going with you !

    Another super informative and well-done video, Harv! As someone still very amateur I really appreciate all the side-by-sides and explicit pointing out of things to watch out for. It's helping me develop my eye and my knowledge of what to look out for.
    Please, please, please do a video on curves!
    Thanks so much, Harv. Huge help. Thanks for helping me slowly get better at video.

    Harv, you are the man. You have made the best explanation EVER for these settings in the Sony. I have a big job in a few days and have been wresting mentally if I should use log or not, or just use nothing. And the 120 fps examples really nailed it. Thanks a million and I'm looking forward to watching all of your other vids. Cheers from Florida!!

  • @bananabear009
    @bananabear009 Před 2 lety

    Very good video explaining the topic. Too many CZcamsr talk about log files assuming viewer already have some understanding on that. I am a photographer who’s starting to do some video shooting. And my knowledge on log files has been like bits and pieces with a lot other information sources. Your explanation is so much better than a lot of other similar videos! Bravo.

  • @hav6301
    @hav6301 Před 6 lety

    amazing and super helpful video! I realized not long ago that curves was the way to go when you wanna add contrast, indeed results in a richer sort of contrast. Would love to see that video on curves!

  • @zakkforchilli
    @zakkforchilli Před 5 lety

    Dude thank you so much. I just started using the a7iii like 4 days ago, did my own little comparison, and with indoor light and colors, S-LOG 3 outperformed S-LOG 2 and HLG IMO by FAR. Outside though was a different story and I didn't have the best of luck, but i will use the info i have now and continue getting it right. Thanks again!

  • @ARickyRodriguez

  • @iviaverick52
    @iviaverick52 Před 5 lety +5

    People may say that s-log is pointless for 8-bit, but for Sony Alpha cameras in particular, the S-log profiles have the least amount of in-camera noise reduction. This translates to less ghosting artifacts from noise reduction, so that alone could be worth it. It get's you more luminance dynamic range even with 8-bit, just don't go crazy on the coloring.

  • @TotalParadigmShift

  • @amuseworkshop8883
    @amuseworkshop8883 Před 6 lety +31

    I think a great tip also, is tricking the camera into staying in +2.0 exposure. When you manually set your ISO while in S-LOG, Sony automatically sets exposure. When you set ISO to auto, you can manually set your exposure. So for clean footage, manually set your minimum ISO and maximum ISO (under auto) to the same number. For example -- I set my minimum to 800 and maximum to 800. This way I can set exposure to +2.0 (without it ever changing) and the ISO will sit still at 800.Thanks for the video, great tips. Good luck everyone!

    • @JonnyDeeFilms
      @JonnyDeeFilms Před 6 lety +1

      amuse|workshop, doesn’t the S-log automatically bump your ISO to 1600?

    • @amuseworkshop8883
      @amuseworkshop8883 Před 6 lety +1

      on some Sony cameras yes. Some are able to bump up it only to 800 for a slightly cleaner s-log image.

    • @AvengerIl
      @AvengerIl Před 6 lety +2

      but +2 exposure is not enough sometimes, as he says don't trust your exposure meter. if you look at the histogram i think this is true... seems manual exposure is the only way to do it right..

    @gamepat9 Před 3 lety

    Thank you so much. This is exactly the information I was looking for for days! Just as a sidenote...Maybe I didn’t quite get what you were talking about, but when you say „aliasing“ I think you mean banding or artefacting. Aliasing is a stairs-effect along edges caused by low resolution

    @allanau Před 6 lety

    Thanks a lot for the video... I am trying to learn and use SLOG as much as I can but a lot of our video is just a quick turn around but I have the Sony FS5 and like you said doing any high frame rate recording with SLOG has some really nasty effects.
