This video was a bit boring to create, but I hope the information it contains helps you. Here are all the exposure numbers mentioned in the video: GREY CARD (use zebras on camera and adjust the exposure until they are visible on the grey card): 32IRE Zebras = correct exposure 43IRE Zebras = +1 stop 55IRE Zebras = +2 stops 65IRE Zebras = +3 stops Alternatively, you can use spot metering to judge exposure by placing the card exactly under the center spot and adjusting the exposure until the MM icon shows +0.0, +1.0, or +2.0. If it displays +2.0 and blinks simultaneously, it likely means that you exposed too high. SKIN TONES (use zebras and adjust the exposure until they cover the bright/highlight part of the face: 40IRE Zebras = correct 32% middle grey exposure 55IRE = +1 stop 64IRE = +2 stops 74IRE = +3 stops With skin tones, it's best to expose 1-2 stops higher than 32% middle grey. Additionally, don't use these exact numbers on your skin. Your skin is most likely different from mine, so experiment with a grey card to see what works best for your case. Use multi-metering in combination with the rear display to expose landscapes and sunset/sunrise shots. This also works pretty well on cloudy days. Set the zebras to Lower Limit +104 and adjust the exposure until the zebras aren't visible on the brightest parts of the image. (Use with caution; it doesn't work well in most cases.)

Honestly, I was following your channel silently from Day 1 you started producing ZV-E10 content. But this one is crazy informative and straight forward. Thanks so much! Learned a lot today 🔥
Hi, Roma, you are a fantastic guy. I bought your LUT V1.0 and I thought it was great. Now you launch this new free update for those who bought the previous version and that's really cool. In fact, this is what sets you apart from other RUclipsrs. Thank you very, very , very much 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Hey Roma! I have no word to describe how great this video tutorial is! The information provided here is gold. Thank you so much for it! I have a Sony Zve10 and I was a little bit lost with so many information in RUclips and none of them was working till I find your video and definitely learn how to expose properly. Id love to see a video about you explaining how do you use your custom Key and how the item that you chooses help you in your daily videos. thank you mate! I hope you can do more videos about the Sony Zve10 =)
14:49 why do people say you lose DR in the shadows when ETTR, it's hard to tell on youtube, do you see less details in the shadows on +3 stops compared to normal exposure? The only difference I can see is the jump from forests reflection to sky reflection, normal exposure looks gradual & filmic and +3 stops looks clean & videoy
No. An 18% grey card represents only middle grey. Each Log profile should be exposed to 18% middle grey with a different IRE value (zebras). For example, S-Log2 should be exposed at 32 IRE when using an 18% middle grey card, but S-Log3 should be exposed at 41 IRE when using an 18% grey card. A grey card is essentially just a reference point. And honestly it would've been much easier if it was called 50% grey card. That way it would've been easier to understand that a grey card is basically the middle point between black and white.
Thank you for this information, however I do have question, how about in low light without much light and you only have f2.8 aperture lens? for example a street that has low light, how can I overexpose it without having too much noise? Do I need to dial up the ISO more?
Honestly, I wouldn't use S-Log2 in low light. From my experience, HLG2 is better for low light shooting. Watch this video to learn more: ruclips.net/video/MTbGMlDNcA0/видео.html
What camera did you use to shoot this video? I am just asking because there are so many circle color artifacts on the walls in the video. So maybe that's why Log isn't the best option for 8-bit cameras? Thank you.
Thanks for the informative video, i bought this camera to use it for cooking videos but im feeling a bit frustrated cause the focus of the camera keep switching between my hands and other equipment while working which doesn’t make the video look smooth and professional, I don’t know if this is the wrong the camera for this type of filming or maybe I’m doing the wrong sitting, but as i know that the intelligent auto mode is the one recommended which I use, i would really appreciate 😊our reply
The camera switches focus because there is a lot of movement in the frame when you're recording. Try using slower AF settings to slow things down, filming at a higher aperture (around f/7.1) to make the change in depth of field less noticeable, or filming with manual focus only and switching the focus manually each time there is a drastic change in the frame.
Hey Roma, a really, really great and informative video! Nicely done (although you say it's boring to create, it was really interesting to watch :) I've got a question: what will happen if I shoot my videos on Manual with shutter speed set to 2x the framerate, aperture manually operated BUT setting my ISO to Auto with Exposure Compensation +1.3 or +1.7? I am constantly founding myself shooting on very dynamic outdoor situations where setting manually MM to +1.3 or +1.7 isn't possible every 30 seconds and I was wondering if Auto + EC would make my videos unusable? Yes, I know it'll automatically adjust my ISO but is it gonna be visible on video IF the sudden changes in the light aren't too big - like totally sunny in the next second totally dark.
I don't see why this wouldn't work for you. If the exposure changes won't be too drastic, it shouldn't be that noticeable. However, why not consider using aperture priority? Using auto ISO can significantly increase noise in the image.
Hey Roma! Thanks a lot, wonderful explanation! 🙏 I subscribed to your channel. I am an absolute beginner in video making and I have a question! If I fix the ISO to 500 when shooting landscapes why the exposure correction works automatically (M.M. +2.0 blinking) and cannot be changed? What does that mean? 🙏
Hey Roma, thank you so much for this video. I have a Sony Zv-e10, I wanna do videos In S Log-3, the ISO are setted to Manual, I want to use the "Expose to the right" technique by encreasing the MM to +2, but on display I have the message " Not available in the current ISO setting. Valid when set to "ISO Auto" , so I have to set ISO to Auto, but I don't want to 😅 Now I'll try with the zebras as you suggested in the video
in one of your past videos you say that 72ire is equivalent to +2 stops for leather. in this video you say that +3 stops is 74ire. where is the truth? I'm so confused by these numbers. every blogger claims different meanings

Just a beginner question, if I have a 18% grey card would I need to set the level to 18 for the zebras?
No. An 18% grey card represents only middle grey. Each Log profile should be exposed to 18% middle grey with a different IRE value (zebras). For example, S-Log2 should be exposed at 32 IRE when using an 18% middle grey card, but S-Log3 should be exposed at 41 IRE when using an 18% grey card.

Can you go live on RUclips with this camera?
As far as I know yes, but it's limited to 1080p I think..

The grey wall behind you has these lines like layers. What is that? I notice them in my videos too and would love to know how to get rid of them?
Is it possible to shoot action in gp log?

Better off turning picture profile off and exposing. 8 but cameras are not meant for colour grading

Sony zv-e1, s-log3, iso640, shutter 1/50

any magenta/green shifts when changing iso using slog2 ?

@RomaFedorov because on A-mode I can't stop shutter speed to 1/50 which is my 2xframe rate :) or can I?
Best budget lens for this camera in low light???
Probably the Viltrox 27mm f1.2. I'm going to review it soon. However, the sigma trio lenses should also work really well.
Needed this
Cheers!
Does this setting can apply for sony a6600?
Yes.
Put something like lamp etc in your background
Thanks. I already did in the newer videos.

U should set the camera to Shutter priority mode when using Slog3. Use a variable ND filter to adjust exposure. thats all
@@kannanvb very kind, thank you so much 🙏
Ну спасибо 🙏🏻
Is the Slog 2 good for any video projects? lets say a comedy sketch
Yes, except low light shooting.
Did you shoot this on ZV-E10 in S-Log 2? I just see lots of artifacts on the walls :(((((((
I shot this with the ZV-E1. The artifacts are probably due to RUclips compression..
