    Do you know if A7III have 2nd base/native ISO for Slog2? I’ve read in various places that it indeed has 2nd native ISO but each time they mention some different values and I don’t really think they are correct as I can see a lot of grain when using any of them.

    do you have a personal reason why you like or prefer s-log2 over of s-log 3 or maybe other picture profiles like HLG?

    • @meliorstudios
      @meliorstudios  10 месяцев назад

      You’re able to recover more Color and contrast on slog2 than on slog3 without the introduction of noise and Color blotching due to the Sony A7iii 8 bit Color. If you don’t perfectly expose for slog3 too on 8bit you will really struggle to grade, though with slog2 there’s more forgiveness in the exposure. However for 10 bit cameras like the fx3 or A7siii, slog3 is a must to use! I only recommend you use HLG3 when you can’t expose by +2.0 stops with slog 2
      This is usually in darker situations

      For 10bit on cameras like the Sony Fx3 or A7siii, I recommend shooting with Slog3. And to expose this, it is advised to expose for +1.7 stops roughly

    Would it be easier if I put auto ISO with +2 exposure for different light situations ?

    • @meliorstudios
      @meliorstudios  7 месяцев назад

      Unfortunately this would cause the iso to be pushed to really high limits in darker situations which will introduce a lot of noise into your footage. I recommend always keeping the iso to 800 and max 1600 or 2000 and then adjusting other parameters to fix your exposure

    Didn't get that clearly - why to overexpose by +2.0 MM, instead of trying to catch correct exposure around 0.0 ?

    • @meliorstudios
      @meliorstudios  8 месяцев назад +2

      Different gammas need to be exposed at different exposure levels. SLOG2 produces the cleanest results with the best dynamic range when exposed by +2.0. However something like HLG3 needs to be exposed at +-0.0 for best results and something like Slog3 produces the cleanest results around +1.7
