Here is a summary of his settings: 4K for normal shooting. 1080 120fps for slow motion. All scaled to 1440p. Mostly use continuous AF and zone as the focus area. Manual focus when required. Auto ISO with a limit of 6400 with an exposure comp of 0. You may want to use an exposure comp of up to +2 if using S-Log. Gamma: Cine4 (or Cine1) Colour Mode: Cinema Detail at -4 (in 1080p mode) Detail Adjust: Limit 7, Crispning 7, B/W Balance Type3 Never use AWB, set it manually or to a preset. You want it to look closest to how your final graded image will look.
Great explanation, I have a question though! I'm shooting manual (using vintage lenses), I set the aperture and the shutter speed manually, I want to have the Auto ISO option, however when I'm recording the exposure isn't locked, if I move, e.g., from inside my house to the outside the ISO lowers to adjust the exposure however I want it locked (in this case i would want it over exposed when stepping out), is it possible ? Thanks
You just take off auto ISO then man haha. It's compensating for it because it figures you want to keep going so just set your ISO at where it should be for the indoor shots and then step outside, should work!
First of all I want to say BIG THANK YOU! You saved me from selling my a6500 camera yesterday... When I saw your videos I understood that there is a chance for me to succeed. I had those problems with the profiles and didn't know how to combine it for good video grading. Second I'm so in love with your luts that inspired me to learn some techniques for future edits. You become my numero UNO vlogger with HIGH NOTIFICATION rate bell. Thank you once more my friend!
So I've checked endless videos on the a6300 because I'm currently saving up for it, and it seems to give a very washed out/hazy kind of look BUT not in a bad way at all, I absolutely love this style! And if you want you can still edit that out afterwards, but really, it looks really distinct and I absolutely bloody love it!!
You can adjust your levels and get correct framing before pressing the record button in the custom modes if you set up your camera in video mode and store it to one of the custom modes from there. The camera recalls the same mode you were in, when you store your settings. It also remembers the specific video mode (P/A/S/M) which you can choose via the Fn button by default. ;)
Try multi, you gonna be overexposed if you use center when you vlog. Caucasians will be under-exposed, and African-Americans over-exposed. I'm a subscriber to your channel by the way. Thanks for the great contents.
Hey Christian! I'm leaving a quick tip you may find helpful cause of your settings. When you said you can't access to the audio level rec control, set this up in a custom button, I feel like the preset one on the left of the wheel (Display mode) is a bit useless for filmmaking, even for pictures cause you could easily change the Display mode using the Fn button. I hope this is helpful for you! Keep it up man!
Excellent review! The working menu on my Sony Nex 7 is so much quicker and practical (as opposed to it's setup menu). Even the location of the movie button is better. I wish Sony would bring that setup menu style back on the next generation of this camera. Anyone who has used the Nex 7 will understand. Still a great camera!
You rock! I have learned so much from you. Buying a luts pack today from you. Thank you so much for this! I just start manufacturing in China for my clients. Now I can do professional videos out here. I spent the entire day yesterday studying what you taught!
Christian Mate Grab, you are going to do big things. The talent with your shots and vision is unreal. Keep it up and thanks for the information! That Zhiyun Crane gimbal thoooooooooo !!
This question is for all sony a6300 owners to answer, not just Christian. What's the best way to film slow motion in low light without getting so much of that "grainy" image? Any specific settings you guys have found to work very well in this type of situation? Would love to hear some answers! Thanks!
You make a good point about white balance . Shoot the colour temperature 'NEAREST' to the colour temperature you want to be in the final grade. If you watch the 'white balance' video by Jerald Undone where he tests whether or not in camera white balance makes a difference on modern cameras you'll find that if you shoot RAW in camera white balance doesn't matter because it can be changed in post without a colour shift occurring. However when you cannot shoot RAW and you have to compress the image with a codec changing the white balance in post will screw with the image. So this brings us to the important bit. Don't simply white balance to make your whites 'white'. This is something that nearly every tutorial will tell you to do and it's WRONG!! (at least when talking about modern camera sensor technology) Why would you white balance your whites to white only to warm everything up or cool everything down in post. It doesn't make sense and also introduces noise. BUT if you decide to shoot at a certain colour temp warmer or cooler, THAT will get you closer quicker and with less noise because you're having to manipulate the image less in post.
If you're located in Southern California, someone is selling brand new units of the Sony a6600 for $1080 no tax. I was so happy I bought 2 and thought I'd share. Just go on OfferUp and search for a6600!
I have a 5D Mark III. I am more a photographer than a film maker. I am doing more video alongside my photography and I love the video capabilities with the a6300. Worth the change? Any advice would be greatly appreciated :)
You can't set the audio levels @ video mode and then switch back to another.. It will change to default. You need to map a custom key to set the audio level while recording...
I love how this camera shoots in 4K! I wanted this camera but the canon80D seemed better for what I do(: but hopefully I can obtain this camera in the future(:
This was the video that I was looking forward to for so long. Thank you so much for delivering. I really appreciate all your work. Truly amazing and it's exactly how I want to express myself through my own videos. Cheers Christian.
hope to see more of these type of tutorials! Thx you are are one of the only photographers i can find on youtube that shoots sony! So, I gotta say you are the best at it by far! hope to see more videos! :D
great video! could you also go over your export? i've found that i can get drastically different results with slight changes to my export settings on premiere.
How can I create that kind of visual, in his intro? It's extremely HD, but it's got like jittery effect/look to it. I would love some answers/feedback if my question makes any sense.
Thank you so much for this. I have been demented trying to find cine 4 mode on my new 6500 and getting my way around the menu system very slowly. Loving the camera all the same. Batis 18 2.8 coming tomorrow for the crane gimbal and that's me broke. Great channel thanks again.
Great video again :) I want to share with you something about PP settings I have found that works great for my taste while shooting with sonys. So shortly here are my PP for no grading on the A7rII(on A6300 is the same but I prefer the S-Gamut3 if I shoot only with this body, if the project involves the A7rII I stick to the S-Gamut because it is easier to match the footage) Gamma - Cine4 Black gamma - Narrow 0 Color Mode - S-Gamut Saturation +28(here I play with this one depending on the scene, if it is not going to burn any color I set it at the max 32 setting) Color Phase +3 Color Depth R4 G5 B5 C7 M5 Y2 Detail 0(here it is a matter of personal taste...) If the scene is with higher contrast I change the Cine4 to Slog2 and overexpose it +2.0. Overall I try to shoot unflat as possible :D. The idea is that flatness is making problems later when grading due to the heavy compression of those cameras. You just have to watch out for clipping and overexposing stuff. I will be happy if you try my settings and tell me what you think about them :)
Hello! How are you! One question: to record video as video clips between these two options, sony alpha a6300 and panasonic lumix gh4, which one would you choose and why? Keep in mind that you need good bokeh, cinematographic takes and above all that you can edit the video to have the best quality of video offered by these two cameras. thank you very much.
Don't you guys reckon slower AF drive speed gives more cinematic look? At 120 fps with a purpose of slowing down I would go for the higher AF drive speed, but if you shoot 24p fast focus changes don't look good to me.
If everything goes alright I'll have my a6300 on Thursday! Very helpful video, will definitely need help with the menus later and here I got it, thanks man!
I have a sony a6300 and in the menu I do not get all the video formats, in 4k it only shows me 25p 100M and 25p 60M I do not understand why I do not enable the other formats please you could solve the restlessness
mate , your video inspire me always. I wish i could meet you in person and learn to shoot like you. Good luck with your future project.Stay awesome as always. Broda
Is this camera worth purchasing in 2018? Or is the a6500 really worth it? I've heard about over heating with the a6300. But it seems most people who have this camera say it's not an issue
Great video! Just one question: how do you get auto ISO to work with video? I mean yeah, it would be great if it would expose properly before recording but then stop adjusting when the recording button is pressed. However, it still keeps changing the exposure all the time which looks very amateuristic in my opinion. Is there a workaround or a setting that I am not aware of? 😅
If it is picture profile for video color grading you're talking about, you can imitate the cine PP by set to picture style 'neutral', and lower down the saturation, sharpness and contrast.
With the a6000 one can also produce very good results. Although not in 4k and it takes worseningly longer. But we also use the a6000 with our own created LUTs.
For slowmotion on the a6000 I suggest shooting in 60 fps, and slowing down to 30 procent! If you use the twixtor plugin on premiere pro, the frames Will blend so you have better slowmo!
A little late but under creative styles in the settings set it to portrait mode and change the saturation and contrast to -3 and sharpening to -1 or -2. That will give you the flatest image for color grading
Hey, thanks for this video. I had a question about the A6500 and was wondering if you can help... Do you have to go into setting all the time to adjust white balance and exposure while you are filming, or is there some kind of wheel in the camera that can help with that while you are filming?
thanks for sharing this video, it really helped with my decision to purchase! I do have a question, I am seeing very beautiful videography shot with the a6300 BUT it's all in either slow motion or very slow movement. Will the picture (for video) still capture fast movements well like running or dancing?
I just did my first shoot with the a6500. After watching this video, I decided set the 1 and 2 recalls to 24p 4k and 120p HD, but unfortunately both of these settings make the cameras LCD nearly impossible to see while recording. The screen dims to a point that if you are outside, you legit can't frame things. Anyone know how to combat this issue? If this camera didn't have amazing autofocus, it seems like handheld 4k/120p (at 100m) would be nearly impossible... you wouldn't be able to see if anything is in focus. Seriously feel like more people would have commented on this issue, didn't see this in any camera reviews online before purchasing:/
So you shoot in 3:2 to use the full sensor size and then crop into 16:9? I'm asking because for both foto and video I'm always torn about using either of the two. 16:9 is what most people watches the footage on, on the other hand 3:2 uses the full sensor(thus quality) and it's super easy to crop both photos and videos in that format. So is this your reasoning behind 3:2 or you shoot both(and why)?
Nice video man, I do have a question, I thought for continuous autofocus it would be better Wide focus area, But you mention other options. Are you finding it works better with your set up? Just wondering what get's the best results for face tracking. Thanks
This is great. I've been looking at what camera I should upgrade to in 6 months time or so and this is a top contender. By any chance, did you use a gimbal or steady cam for any of this footage?
Excuse my naivety, I don't have this camera yet but, with regard to the picture profile, how much will these settings effect post production if you recorded in XAVC or AVCHD? Aren't these a more raw format?
Hey Christian thanks for the great video. I just got a a6500. Just wondering from where i stay it is PAL. Should i turn to NTSC and shoot in 120fps or should i just stick to PAL and shoot 100fps? Any difference using 120fps and 100fps?
if you are shooting PAL you most likely will also have shots at night or indoors. If you use 120p on NTSC you will get the weird flicker or the lights, therefore just stick with 100p, even though its 20p less than the NTSC peeps get :D Our $0.02
Great vid and great tips. Love how crisp and un-juddery (is that a word??) the footage is despite there being quite a lot of camera movement. Any tips on how to achieve this? Are you shooting 24fps? If so, are you using a higher shutter speed than 50/sec? Thanks so much.
Does changing the picture profile affect the way photos come out as well or only video? I feel like the photos look so flat compared to my nikon out of the camera
How do i go about upscaling 1080 and downscaling 4K to a 2560 x 1440 timeline? Is it as simple as setting the sequence settings to 1440p and dropping in 4K and 1080 footage in the timeline?
Im new to shooting and have the Sony a6300 just 16-50 body kit 3.5-5.6...do you know how to adjust the aperture to help shooting in bright day light look better? Doesnt seem to be any tutorials on the newer model how to adjust f stop
I'm a beginner and want to really buy this camera for my RUclips channel and create short film projects. Cool video and I really learned a lot and enjoy it. Peace and lo e to all.
What about shutter speed? Do you stick with the generic rule of double the FPS? I did that and i was always over exposed at f1.4. Also, are you constantly changing white balance?
Please help me!! If we film with the Sony a6500 in S-Log2/3, we always get extremly noisy footage - no matter how bright it is. What is our mistake? Thanks
Quinn Miller I prefer to shoot in Cinema 4, because for me it's ridiculous to set a limit of ISO 800 min for to use a log... Cinema 4 is very good, probably (I don't now) 1 stop difference with s-log... Try!
Hi, you say you are shooting with the kit lens, but on the display it says you're shooting with f2.0 (kitlens is F3.5-F5.6). Also you seem to shoot at 1/500 shutter speed. Do you not bother the 180 shutter speed 'rule'? Do you increase shutter speed in stead of working with a variable ND filter, is that it? Thanks
Big thanks for the review.... you put lots of time choosing songs... i'm sure... mood is paramount. Got yourself a new subscriber ;) from Montréal Canada.
Hi, can you get the same results in a6500? All videos that i see in a6300 i like better then a6500. Its more "soft" , i cant explain. The color seams to be more pleasent.
hello, I would like to know how to set the Sony a6300 when using the slog2 because when I use it in post production I have a lot of noise and do not know how to set it. i have a kit lens (16-50 3.5-5.6)thank you so much.

Thank you once more my friend!
Hey Christian, if you had to decide between the Sony 16mm and the Sigma 19mm which would you go with?
Men my favorite RUclips didn’t get any answer damn it
Ps I love your videos cause of you I bought a Sony a6300 to film ❤️
What is your preference Daniel? I have seen them both hunt for focus...
Wow my idol!!
And now Daniel has 1 Million subscribers fast forward 3 years.
@MP4 for anyone dropping in here the 16mm is amazing, nj I've even used it for macro photography and it holds up.. as a wide lens
So I've checked endless videos on the a6300 because I'm currently saving up for it, and it seems to give a very washed out/hazy kind of look BUT not in a bad way at all, I absolutely love this style! And if you want you can still edit that out afterwards, but really, it looks really distinct and I absolutely bloody love it!!
I rewatch this video maybe every 4 months and still pick up on stuff that i didn't before. Thanks again for the great rundown.
You can adjust your levels and get correct framing before pressing the record button in the custom modes if you set up your camera in video mode and store it to one of the custom modes from there. The camera recalls the same mode you were in, when you store your settings. It also remembers the specific video mode (P/A/S/M) which you can choose via the Fn button by default. ;)
+Fabian Bläse oh ok didn't know that, thanks!
Nice bro! What metering mode do you use? I stopped using auto iso for my vlogs recently because the metering was weird!
With us, Auto ISO works perfectly in the program automatic mode.
Try multi, you gonna be overexposed if you use center when you vlog. Caucasians will be under-exposed, and African-Americans over-exposed. I'm a subscriber to your channel by the way. Thanks for the great contents.
YCImaging Since this comment what have you done to correct the problem? I'm a subscriber too by the way
bro your the best out right now. whatever your doing keep it up, hope to work with you.. let me know when your in nyc
Thanks for this. So happy I got my a6300. The footage looks so good
Hey Christian! I'm leaving a quick tip you may find helpful cause of your settings.

Excellent review! The working menu on my Sony Nex 7 is so much quicker and practical (as opposed to it's setup menu). Even the location of the movie button is better. I wish Sony would bring that setup menu style back on the next generation of this camera. Anyone who has used the Nex 7 will understand. Still a great camera!
Color grading is an art. I'll work hard to become great at it! I'm looking forward to the day my videos looks as good as Christian's.
You rock! I have learned so much from you. Buying a luts pack today from you. Thank you so much for this! I just start manufacturing in China for my clients. Now I can do professional videos out here. I spent the entire day yesterday studying what you taught!
Christian Mate Grab, you are going to do big things. The talent with your shots and vision is unreal. Keep it up and thanks for the information! That Zhiyun Crane gimbal thoooooooooo !!
This is one of those channels that makes me so thankful for RUclips.
my fav video on the sony a6300. Love how this footage turned out
Color grade is magical
This question is for all sony a6300 owners to answer, not just Christian.
What's the best way to film slow motion in low light without getting so much of that "grainy" image?
Any specific settings you guys have found to work very well in this type of situation?
Would love to hear some answers! Thanks!
Where'd the sister get the DJI jacket?
I think she worked for DJI at the 24h of Nürburgring Race. DJI was one of the main sponsors.
You make a good point about white balance . Shoot the colour temperature 'NEAREST' to the colour temperature you want to be in the final grade.

Great advice not just for the A6500 but for filmmaking in general.

The only thing I hate about using 4k as run and gun is the wobble effect, unless I have a gimbal which I don't. I do agree, it is the best quality.
You can't set the audio levels @ video mode and then switch back to another.. It will change to default. You need to map a custom key to set the audio level while recording...
No way, I was looking for something exactly like this! Thank you!
I love how this camera shoots in 4K! I wanted this camera but the canon80D seemed better for what I do(: but hopefully I can obtain this camera in the future(:
What is it that you do that a6300 can't do? :/
EdVentures I have a 70d and I can still get some decent shots, not 4K or as flexible but still nice
EdVentures Pretty sure the a6300 can do everything and better than the 80D... and I use one!
if you save the settings while in video mode, 1 and 2 will be video modes! At least on my A7
This was the video that I was looking forward to for so long. Thank you so much for delivering. I really appreciate all your work. Truly amazing and it's exactly how I want to express myself through my own videos. Cheers Christian.
Super Video Christian. Ich bin mittlerweile ein großer Fan von Dir. Der Look deiner Videos ist der Hammer. Sehr gelungen. Viele Grüße
hope to see more of these type of tutorials! Thx you are are one of the only photographers i can find on youtube that shoots sony! So, I gotta say you are the best at it by far! hope to see more videos! :D
great video! could you also go over your export? i've found that i can get drastically different results with slight changes to my export settings on premiere.
How can I create that kind of visual, in his intro? It's extremely HD, but it's got like jittery effect/look to it. I would love some answers/feedback if my question makes any sense.
It should just be because of the 25 FPS setting
higher shutter speed gives that effect
Thank you so much for this. I have been demented trying to find cine 4 mode on my new 6500 and getting my way around the menu system very slowly. Loving the camera all the same. Batis 18 2.8 coming tomorrow for the crane gimbal and that's me broke. Great channel thanks again.
please make 1 video about which best music site for videos
What is the difference between the different picture profiles? PP1-PP9?
I currently have a Sony A6300 with a kit 16-50mm kit lense. This is all like a foriegn language to me.
Great video again :) I want to share with you something about PP settings I have found that works great for my taste while shooting with sonys.
So shortly here are my PP for no grading on the A7rII(on A6300 is the same but I prefer the S-Gamut3 if I shoot only with this body, if the project involves the A7rII I stick to the S-Gamut because it is easier to match the footage)
Gamma - Cine4
Black gamma - Narrow 0
Color Mode - S-Gamut
Saturation +28(here I play with this one depending on the scene, if it is not going to burn any color I set it at the max 32 setting)
Color Phase +3
Color Depth
R4
G5
B5
C7
M5
Y2
Detail 0(here it is a matter of personal taste...)
If the scene is with higher contrast I change the Cine4 to Slog2 and overexpose it +2.0. Overall I try to shoot unflat as possible :D. The idea is that flatness is making problems later when grading due to the heavy compression of those cameras. You just have to watch out for clipping and overexposing stuff.
I will be happy if you try my settings and tell me what you think about them :)
Hello! How are you! One question: to record video as video clips between these two options, sony alpha a6300 and panasonic lumix gh4, which one would you choose and why? Keep in mind that you need good bokeh, cinematographic takes and above all that you can edit the video to have the best quality of video offered by these two cameras. thank you very much.
You don't have to do that workaround with audio levels if you create your custom modes inside of video mode
Don't you guys reckon slower AF drive speed gives more cinematic look? At 120 fps with a purpose of slowing down I would go for the higher AF drive speed, but if you shoot 24p fast focus changes don't look good to me.
So good! I have watched this video a million times! Love the editing, grading, information etc! Thanks!
If everything goes alright I'll have my a6300 on Thursday! Very helpful video, will definitely need help with the menus later and here I got it, thanks man!
You are going to love it congrats!
Yeah hopefully! Thanks :D
really awsome color grade .....can u please make 1 tutorial on that
This video was perfect! Thank you for the post, definitely going to be using these tips!
I have a sony a6300 and in the menu I do not get all the video formats, in 4k it only shows me 25p 100M and 25p 60M I do not understand why I do not enable the other formats please you could solve the restlessness
Dude, who the hell are you?!?! Even though this was a tutorial, this was the best youtube video ive seen in awhile! This was quality!!!! Thank you!
Mixing 4K 30 fps with 1080 120 fps into 1440p? I never thought about it. I'd like to see a video shot like that.
That background music is Ella Vos' White noise. Frikkin A. Love that track.
mate , your video inspire me always. I wish i could meet you in person and learn to shoot like you. Good luck with your future project.Stay awesome as always. Broda
Is this camera worth purchasing in 2018? Or is the a6500 really worth it? I've heard about over heating with the a6300. But it seems most people who have this camera say it's not an issue
very nice looks like a lovely camera why now use the canon g3x. But wanne buy a new 4k camera. Still dont know the Sony or the Panasonic
I have a Sony A6300, very helpful. Anyone know the name of the background song he used?
Ella Vos white noise
Hi very nice review.. how do you made nice cinematic color of this video? this is originally from the sony camera or edited with software?
Sony a6300 or Panasonic Lumix G7? Interested in filmmaking and some photography.
Simply question.. why Zone and not Wide focus mode? :) which is for what?
Thanks!
Great video! Just one question: how do you get auto ISO to work with video? I mean yeah, it would be great if it would expose properly before recording but then stop adjusting when the recording button is pressed. However, it still keeps changing the exposure all the time which looks very amateuristic in my opinion. Is there a workaround or a setting that I am not aware of? 😅
Ooh i wish i had a a6300 instead of the a6000 so much more possibilities
AmedeoProto Same. Since I mostly shoot stills I couldn't justify the extra cost of the a6300
If it is picture profile for video color grading you're talking about, you can imitate the cine PP by set to picture style 'neutral', and lower down the saturation, sharpness and contrast.
With the a6000 one can also produce very good results. Although not in 4k and it takes worseningly longer. But we also use the a6000 with our own created LUTs.
Ah thankss!
For slowmotion on the a6000 I suggest shooting in 60 fps, and slowing down to 30 procent! If you use the twixtor plugin on premiere pro, the frames Will blend so you have better slowmo!
Bro where did you get the jacket?
I beg you! Tell me what settings you need to put on sony a6000 to get a similar picture?
A little late but under creative styles in the settings set it to portrait mode and change the saturation and contrast to -3 and sharpening to -1 or -2. That will give you the flatest image for color grading
it doesn't have picture profiles :(
Awesome Christian, you really inspire... keep up the good work bro!
I'm getting the A6500 this week So excited! Great video.
Hey, thanks for this video. I had a question about the A6500 and was wondering if you can help... Do you have to go into setting all the time to adjust white balance and exposure while you are filming, or is there some kind of wheel in the camera that can help with that while you are filming?
which would you prefer only for videos? rx100 m5 or a6300?
Trynna watch more videos like the ending, any suggestions?
Will i get a copywrite strike if i use this song in my video? btw jus bought a6600 love it
thanks for sharing this video, it really helped with my decision to purchase! I do have a question, I am seeing very beautiful videography shot with the a6300 BUT it's all in either slow motion or very slow movement. Will the picture (for video) still capture fast movements well like running or dancing?
What's the brand and the model of that backpack? Is it weatherproof? It looks so vintage, love it!
I just did my first shoot with the a6500. After watching this video, I decided set the 1 and 2 recalls to 24p 4k and 120p HD, but unfortunately both of these settings make the cameras LCD nearly impossible to see while recording. The screen dims to a point that if you are outside, you legit can't frame things. Anyone know how to combat this issue? If this camera didn't have amazing autofocus, it seems like handheld 4k/120p (at 100m) would be nearly impossible... you wouldn't be able to see if anything is in focus. Seriously feel like more people would have commented on this issue, didn't see this in any camera reviews online before purchasing:/
So you shoot in 3:2 to use the full sensor size and then crop into 16:9? I'm asking because for both foto and video I'm always torn about using either of the two. 16:9 is what most people watches the footage on, on the other hand 3:2 uses the full sensor(thus quality) and it's super easy to crop both photos and videos in that format. So is this your reasoning behind 3:2 or you shoot both(and why)?
Since you mentioned that he sigma 30 1.4 sucks at focusing. If you were to use it with a gimbal, would it keep missing focuses?
Nice video man, I do have a question, I thought for continuous autofocus it would be better Wide focus area, But you mention other options. Are you finding it works better with your set up? Just wondering what get's the best results for face tracking. Thanks
This is great. I've been looking at what camera I should upgrade to in 6 months time or so and this is a top contender. By any chance, did you use a gimbal or steady cam for any of this footage?
Excuse my naivety, I don't have this camera yet but, with regard to the picture profile, how much will these settings effect post production if you recorded in XAVC or AVCHD? Aren't these a more raw format?
Hey Christian thanks for the great video. I just got a a6500. Just wondering from where i stay it is PAL. Should i turn to NTSC and shoot in 120fps or should i just stick to PAL and shoot 100fps? Any difference using 120fps and 100fps?
if you are shooting PAL you most likely will also have shots at night or indoors. If you use 120p on NTSC you will get the weird flicker or the lights, therefore just stick with 100p, even though its 20p less than the NTSC peeps get :D Our $0.02
Great vid and great tips. Love how crisp and un-juddery (is that a word??) the footage is despite there being quite a lot of camera movement. Any tips on how to achieve this? Are you shooting 24fps? If so, are you using a higher shutter speed than 50/sec? Thanks so much.
Does changing the picture profile affect the way photos come out as well or only video? I feel like the photos look so flat compared to my nikon out of the camera
How do i go about upscaling 1080 and downscaling 4K to a 2560 x 1440 timeline? Is it as simple as setting the sequence settings to 1440p and dropping in 4K and 1080 footage in the timeline?
Im new to shooting and have the Sony a6300 just 16-50 body kit 3.5-5.6...do you know how to adjust the aperture to help shooting in bright day light look better? Doesnt seem to be any tutorials on the newer model how to adjust f stop
How is video on kit lens? Is it possible to make short film on kit lens?
For some reason my video mode is always so dark on my camera....what did I do wrong in the settings?
I have a question:
1) AdobeRGB, or sRGB?
Your videos are always so high quality
Would you help me how to change the shooting mode to manual and then save that settings on memory recall?
Great video cheers ....Why do you not like using S-Log ....
Good stuff! What would your video settings be if you were shooting at night or in low light situations? Also where did your girl get that DJI jacket?
I'm a beginner and want to really buy this camera for my RUclips channel and create short film projects. Cool video and I really learned a lot and enjoy it. Peace and lo e to all.
love to all...
idk why but i can't get a picture like this, i did everything you said.. i have a a6500 w 35mm still lens
What about shutter speed? Do you stick with the generic rule of double the FPS? I did that and i was always over exposed at f1.4. Also, are you constantly changing white balance?
what steps are you using for make that? what i need to read for be a similar footage? i have a A6300 but i don't know how i can do that. help us. :)
Please help me!! If we film with the Sony a6500 in S-Log2/3, we always get extremly noisy footage - no matter how bright it is. What is our mistake? Thanks
I set the exposure to +2 and that usually does it.
Quinn Miller I prefer to shoot in Cinema 4, because for me it's ridiculous to set a limit of ISO 800 min for to use a log... Cinema 4 is very good, probably (I don't now) 1 stop difference with s-log... Try!
I am planning to shoot a film, Plz tell me which cam should I buy, a6300 or a6500 with lens
Christian, it was a pleasure to purchase your Cine lut. Hopefully it'll work with FCPX!
Hi, you say you are shooting with the kit lens, but on the display it says you're shooting with f2.0 (kitlens is F3.5-F5.6). Also you seem to shoot at 1/500 shutter speed. Do you not bother the 180 shutter speed 'rule'? Do you increase shutter speed in stead of working with a variable ND filter, is that it? Thanks
Big thanks for the review.... you put lots of time choosing songs... i'm sure... mood is paramount. Got yourself a new subscriber ;) from Montréal Canada.
Hi, can you get the same results in a6500? All videos that i see in a6300 i like better then a6500. Its more "soft" , i cant explain. The color seams to be more pleasent.
Your videos rly do help beginners for making the best of the gear :) thank you man
Christian Mate' Grab, how do you like the Luis Retro Rucksack? And what kind of jacket is that?
Dude, I have the same lens and Sony a6500. How come I don't get to choose the af drive speed or the other focus modes????
hello, I would like to know how to set the Sony a6300 when using the slog2 because when I use it in post production I have a lot of noise and do not know how to set it. i have a kit lens (16-50 3.5-5.6)thank you so much.
and I know how to make downscaled 4K to 1440 or 1080p? Thanks you!
This is really helpful! Thanks! Love the a6500
