@ hes recording with one camera, and the camera he is holding has an hdmi cable out. so he is capturing what that LCD sees. you can do it in many ways. one of them is by using the elgato 4k for it to capture everything that comes out of the camera. Once you have that footage you overlay it over the footage captured with the other camera. that's it.
Yeah that's pretty close to it. I record to an external recorder with the screen info on, with the lens cap on, - then just overlay in the NLE and I just sync up that actions. Thanks for the comment Martin!
Plz sir give video about editing app cinematic apps for colour grading with how to download and link, another video for design sound, and where to get free audio library sound effects
Here is a video I did talking about Free Stock Sites that also have music and sound effects ruclips.net/video/zEFpHzvGQa8/видео.html Thanks for watching and the comment!
So I can intercut the footage with doing interview style shoots, or B-Roll. It makes it easier (and faster) when the footage matches as close as possible. Thanks for watching and the comment Scott!
Mmmmkay, so when the menu of your camera popped up on the side of the screen I just about lost it. How cool was that!?!?!? Subbed just off of that. LOL!
This helped me out SO MUCH! I was frustrated because I didn't know why I was getting so much noise shooting at a low ISO. I guess I can blame my background in photography. Thanks for that explanation!
Awesome! And I know the feeling! When you have a chance to test it out for yourself, circle back and let me know how it worked out. Thanks for the comment Tristan!
Rafael Ludwig literally JUST tried it. Definitely a step up from what I was doing before but there’s still room for improvement. Still playing with the highlights and shadows.
Thanks! My buddy Roger did a deep dive on All-i and IPB - most people don't care about the difference but we found it fascinating! ruclips.net/video/vDDbvE8SFak/видео.html Thanks for watching and the comment Dennis!
Awesome video! After watching this video I did some tests with my lighting setup and learned that I really need to invest into some better lighting to be able to keep my ISO low enough, so I bought new lighting 😂 - Thanks for the video!
You are right, I didn't specify how I do it. I typically use an ND filter and open it up a bit or, I bump the ISO up one or two. It's about letting more light in than the waveform shows as ideal exposure. Thanks for watching and the comment Nick!
I feel that is a great suggestion for a video. It's a simple process but easier to show than to try to explain. Which program do you use for editing? FCPX, Premiere or other? Thanks for the comment!
Awesome, thank you! I agree CLOG is my favourite of the LOGs - and I've worked with them all. REDCODE RAW is top for me for quality, but hate working with it, Too large and too taxing on most machines.
Right on the mark, Raphael. I would add to the list log footage and large rasters. Clients want speed and efficiency more than elaborate and beautiful. If it isn't essential to the concept, move along. I use a C500, R5, an inspire, gimbal, sliders and even a steadicam. However, 95% of the time, I'm running lean and mean. -woops! I was replying to your essential gear video!
Thanks dude ! after a few try with the C-log, I gave up thinking I was not good enough at color grading. Turn out, I should try your setting. Can wait to see your vidéo about color grading.
Definitely give it a try! The color grading video will be the one following my next video, late next week or early the following week. It's the tricks I picked up from my colonist friends. Handy to find your own workflow and style without being too complicated. Thanks for the comment!
Thank you for the great content! Native ISO is 400 under C-Log, how about regular video profile, is the native ISO still the same at 400? Some say it will be 100 under non-C-Log video mode??
This was very helpful. Thank you for always putting out really helpful and inspiring content. I'm still learning my way around the EOSR. I've heard the recommendation of overexposing "+1" before, but am a little confused about how to accomplish that. Does that mean to bump up the ISO, or does that mean to bump up the exposure compensation (keeping ISO 4000)? Thanks for your help.
Just learning Clog and this helped a lot, thanks Rafael! Also...real talk how did you do that menu overlay? I know how to screen record it (I have an external recorder) but how did you make the background transparent?
Clog is fun make sure you check out how the videos I have to color correct it without LUTs or Plugins. For the menu Overlay I made a video that as well. ruclips.net/video/sip4iMV1sNY/видео.html Thanks for the compliment and the comment Julie!
@@RafaelLudwig ahahaha! Amazing. Watching now! Really appreciate the response. I'm going to watch your grading video too because I cannot get my C-log to look right. Like it's not even close. And it's soft...way softer then when I shoot with the stock profile in the EOS R. Is that normal?
@@JulieSchiro yes that is normal, the stock picture profiles add sharpening, clog does not, so you have to add that as well, but you can be as subtle or extreme as you want!
@@RafaelLudwig ah great to know. Wow thanks for the super fast reply. I'm actually watching your color grading tutorial now with my log footage open on the other screen. Let's see if I can beautify this log file up!
Natural or standard picture profiles work best, but if you are feeling adventurous you can use C-Log and create your own LUT for OBS, which is what I did. Casey Faris has a walk through in Davinci but you be able to do it in any program -> ruclips.net/video/ogZU4fRt59I/видео.html Thanks for the question!
so how do I over exposure? you don't explain this. when I press exposure comp, "not available because of the associated faction's setting. iso speed, canon log settings"
Hi Chopstick Man, You are right the Exposure Compensation is greyed out when in Manual Mode. And it's more of a Photography tool than a video tool. So when I say over expose it by 1 or 2 stops I am referring to opening up the aperture (e.g. 3.2 down to 2.8) or increasing the ISO (e.g. 800 to 1000). I hope this helps. Thanks for the comment!
Thanks for a straight to point video on clog. Love your videos. I use the same settings except for saturation because my often objects have a lot of red in them and when sun shines the reds get easily "fever" and I have trouble to render it well. So I go for 2 steps minus on saturation for those extremes. I agree its important to set the white balance correct and I go rather a bit cool than warm on the white balance when recording as its easier in post to ad warmth than opposite per my experience. Yes, I would really like to see you color correcting and basic grading and which LUTs you use.
Knowing the equipment and how it reacts in different settings or different subjects is the key to consistently getting good footage/Photos. That is why doing these tests really helps me understand the gear and how far I can push it, and trust it to capture what I want. The color grading video will be the one after my next one, currently working on it. Thanks as always for your thoughtful comments Martin!
I don't own the m50 and as far as I know it doesn't have a log profile and I've read that trying to force a Log profile can potentially introduce artifacting to your footage. Set the camera to a flat or neutral picture profile, and reduce the sharpening, this will help make the footage feel smoother. But you will have to bring back some of the contrast and sharpness in post. Sorry I couldn't answer your question directly. Thanks for the comment and the question!
As long as they are able to record with the write/read speed, it shouldn't be an issue, I'd be more worried about it not recording at all! Thanks for watching and the comment!
Thanks Rafael, great video! We’re on the same page. I had a lot of problems with noise in the past,as I was cranking up the ISO now I always try to stay near 400 ISO, also I had the 24-105 f4, but now I got the 15-35mm which opens at 2.8. I like low light conditions
I love fast lenses for indoor or low light always! I sold all my f4 lenses long ago and never looked back! Glad to see that it’s all working nicely for you now! As always thanks for the comments Ruben!
Excellent video! Sometimes I need to go with 3200 ISO. What do you choose between C log and standard profile in this situation for a better image? Thank you
I always shoot C-Log - even when I push the ISO. In those cases I tend to not go as aggressive with the color grade. And add a Denoiser if it's really bad. 3200 is still pretty usable, unless there are no lights in the scene. I have found that many viewers forgive noisy footage if the shots are compelling enough. Thanks for the compliment and the question Noli!
Very informative and easy to understand, thank you. I like your setup, try adding a bit of orange on the right side of your background, will make a nice contrast.
Yes there is a way to load a custom LUT into OBS and color correct C-Log for your stream live. Is that what you are asking? Here's a walk through how to do it. ruclips.net/video/ogZU4fRt59I/видео.html Thanks for watching and the question!
@@ale_filmmaker3513 The 5D mark 2 was my first camera, I also had ML on it. the software is so much better these days, and even able to get raw out of that camera.
Rafael Ludwig have you tested the raw on the M2? I will test it today and probably buy it since the price is $400,00 with 160clicks, never used for video.
Silly question but never realize before (and also a newbie)... EOS R native ISO is 400? for stills & video. I went thru the manual after seeing your video and couldn't find it.
I asked a Canon tech directly what the best iso for video was and he said 400 iso for C-log produces the cleanest images exposed properly. Thanks for the comment!
@@RafaelLudwig damn...thanks. I saw some other info saying it's 400 as well... lol... god damn it... i'll be shooting mostly at iso400 from now on lol.
@@mohdnorazmil I start at 400 and see where my scene is using the Histogram. If it's too bright, I'll use an ND filter or adjust the Aperture. If it's too dark, I'll open up the aperture, only then I'll adjust the ISO. If I can't add lights to the shot. Don't be afraid to play with the settings, and learn to use the histogram, it's your best friend for clean images. Aim to expose properly, because if it's not, even with 400 ISO you will get noise in the shadows. Thanks again for the comment!
Rafael Ludwig you’re very welcome. I’m really liking/appreciating your approach to breaking things down and explaining them. I’m holding out for the rumored price drop of the EOS r to grab one!
Thanks Rafael for the valuable information and the style of presentation. I would like to know, if this episode was shot on the C200 in 4k and brought onto a 1080p timeline, or what camera did you use. The most Videos I have seen shot with the EOS R are looking terrible, really really bad. It´s such a downer besides being a nice tool for Photographers.
This video was shot half and half - C200 4k Clog, and EOS R 1080p Clog. All the B-Roll was shot with the EOSR (except any shots of the EOSR) -specifically all the shots of the color chart near the end. I edit in a 4k Timeline, I scale up the EOSR 1080p footage to fit the 4k Timeline, and output and upload 4k. At first, I was working with the EOS R the same way I would with the C200, and the footage would look bad comparatively, When I would trust the screen or viewfinder I could never get great footage. I feel when I used the EOSR I was using my Photographers mind. But the more I pushed the camera to find the sweet spots for shooting footage, I realized that when it's in movie mode I had to trust the Histogram more, and that is why after a bunch of tests I found that slightly over exposing I was able to produce a better image. Thanks for the comment Mata!
Thanks for the comment and the compliment! I record externally with display info on, and I keep the lens cap on as well so it's recording black. Then I just overlay the footage using the screen mode.
@@RafaelLudwig maybe you could do a video on this it is fascinating how you did it, even though you just said what you did I cannot put that into making it happen.
I will, I think you are the 10th person to suggest it since that video came out. I may do it after my next video. Thank you for all the comments and for watching!
Hey man I love love your videos is there any way you can do a video about how to use the Atomos Shinobi with the Eos r everybody has the video for ninja five which is fine but I just need a little help with just Shinobi
Is the camera set to PAL or NTSC? ( European vs North American frame rate standards). That’s the only reason I can think of why. Thanks for watching and the comment Ivan!
@@RafaelLudwig I search it. Thank you again for respond! Here is a advice for next video if you didn't make it till now. How did you make this cool camera screen on monitor?
With the C200 I have found that C-Log3 proper exposure works really well, and no more than 1 over still works quite nice! The C200 is way more forgiving than the EOS R. The sensor is way small megapixels at 8.9 versus the 30mp on the R. So that makes for much larger photo sites to capture light. And that is why the Sony A7s3 is a beast in low light with 12mp. Thanks Eric for the question!
Yeah, it will definitely help as I show towards the end of the video - over exposing really reduces the noise in the shadows. I was struggling with it as well until I did the testing.
I mostly shoot 8bit on both the C200 and EOS R, and am careful to have exposures set properly. I only shoot RAW for bigger client work, and then I usually rent a additional C200s to match perfectly. And use the EOS R for BTS footage. Thanks for the comment!
Correct me if I wrong. You record your EOS R menu via hdmi to Atomos then you import to your timeline, make position and transform and then change the blend mode to screen or something else? Great tutorials BTW.
That is exactly correct! I record with the lens cap on to capture black and screen it over to get just the light parts on screen. Thanks for the comment Dejan!
Thank you for the sub! and Hello! I am working on getting my hands on footage from both, I will definitely get the R5 at some point. Thanks again for the comments!
between the two For the price - the R - but at that price I would lean towards the R6. I am a fan of Canon, I like the lenses and the overall workflow with the files for both Photo and Video. The A7C seems like a great camera but I have not had any hands on time with it. Thanks for watching and the question!
@@ka7iopeya my main photo camera was the 1Dx mk2 - and that has a 20mp sensor. Something to consider. And since you say 40% video the 6 is much much cleaner - and no cropped 4K. It also depends if you already have lenses or not, if you have emount go with the Sony, if you have EF go canon.
you say over expose for less noise and yes that is well known in photography as well, however when you say over expose some people may take that literally and blow out the scene, you then stat to use the histogram which I always teach others to use and the peak needs to be in the middle, now just saying but if the peak is in the middle of the histogramme is that not just a perfect exposure? to be fair this is exactly what I do because relying on the camera exposure bar on the bottom of most screens is not good as this will indicate the exposure to be over exposed whilst the histogramme will show a perfect exposure with the peak in the middle. Wow that seemed long winded lol, I hope that makes sense.
You are right I should have been very specific, to expose correctly, then over expose by 1 or 2 stops. When in video mode the is no exposure bar, and histogram is not a precise tool, just a range of luminance info. I've seen way too many try and trust the image on the back screen of the camera, and it "looks" good, only to find that it's either way under or way over. So I teach them to look at the image AND the histogram to better gauge the exposure, or use a light meter. But no one uses a light meter these days ;) Thanks again for the thoughtful comment!
The EOS R is a great camera, and for the price it really performs well! By October there will be a flood of R's for sale. Thanks for the Comment Ricky!
Hi! My EOS R in Clog on 400 ISO is HORRIBLE. extremely noisy on 400. Even 800 is less noisy than 400. I tested on all levels, and ISO 100 is the cleanest, although it still isnt pristine... Even Neutral picture profile is better on ISO 100 than clog.....😢 Can someone tell me why? Every video tells otherwise... Im not a beginner, so this camera's poor video quality is driving me insane.
Look, first of all, you should understand that white clipping point on ISO 100 in neutral is the same as on ISO 400 in log. You should try to expose as bright as you can but without clipping in neutral on ISO 100 then just switch to Log and bring your exposure back in post. But don't shoot in Log lower than native ISO, it will clip your highlights sooner
C-Log in 8bit on the EOS R benefits from over exposing, cleaner image, on the C200 with C-Log 3 in 8bit you can push it a bit harder, and with C-Log 2 in 12 bit lots of room to play. It comes down to the camera you have, and to do one day of tests in different lighting conditions to understand the gear - and you'll do great in any situation moving forward. I don't know about film school... I learned so much more and practical on sets and working on productions than I did at school. I should have started learning those things sooner. Though you will meet many like minded people that you will form great relationships with that will carry well beyond school. Thanks for the comment!
What's painful about videography is how expensive everything is. That color checker he's got there? That little piece of plastic with colors on it? $150.

Excellent video! Sometimes I need to go with 3200 ISO. What do you choose between C log and standard profile in this situation for a better image? Thank you
I always shoot C-Log - even when I push the ISO. In those cases I tend to not go as aggressive with the color grade. And add a Denoiser if it's really bad. 3200 is still pretty usable, unless there are no lights in the scene. I have found that many viewers forgive noisy footage if the shots are compelling enough.
Thanks for the compliment and the question Noli!
Thank you, Rafael!
Very informative and easy to understand, thank you. I like your setup, try adding a bit of orange on the right side of your background, will make a nice contrast.
I wanted to for this video, but didn't have enough RGB light to color match, so I kept them white. Thanks for the comment Sushant!
@@RafaelLudwig use orange gel paper, will get the job done!
Yup, didn't have any. Only had CTB ;)
Hello,if we are live streamer via Obs,can we too color grade c log somehow?Thank you
Yes there is a way to load a custom LUT into OBS and color correct C-Log for your stream live. Is that what you are asking? Here's a walk through how to do it. ruclips.net/video/ogZU4fRt59I/видео.html
Thanks for watching and the question!
@@RafaelLudwig Thank you
Thanks! Subscribed!!
Awesome, thank you Fernando!
Hey Rafael, do you know how many stops of dynamics range are shorting c log?
I believe the R is rated at 12 stops of Dynamic Range. That's pretty good for an 8bit internal camera. Thanks for the comment!
@@RafaelLudwig thanks! I will be getting the 5d mark II today and I will be installing Magic Lantern on it and I will test the DR on both.
@@ale_filmmaker3513 The 5D mark 2 was my first camera, I also had ML on it. the software is so much better these days, and even able to get raw out of that camera.
Rafael Ludwig have you tested the raw on the M2? I will test it today and probably buy it since the price is $400,00 with 160clicks, never used for video.
@@ale_filmmaker3513 I have not personally, but Armando did a video about it - worth checking out ruclips.net/video/xOiRKCi60TM/видео.html
When I hopefully purchase an EOS R this summer I'll be shooting in LOG so that I can match it with my drone footage that is also LOG. Great video!
It's a great little camera, you'll enjoy it! Thanks for the comment!
Silly question but never realize before (and also a newbie)... EOS R native ISO is 400? for stills & video. I went thru the manual after seeing your video and couldn't find it.
I asked a Canon tech directly what the best iso for video was and he said 400 iso for C-log produces the cleanest images exposed properly. Thanks for the comment!
@@RafaelLudwig damn...thanks. I saw some other info saying it's 400 as well... lol... god damn it... i'll be shooting mostly at iso400 from now on lol.
@@mohdnorazmil I start at 400 and see where my scene is using the Histogram. If it's too bright, I'll use an ND filter or adjust the Aperture. If it's too dark, I'll open up the aperture, only then I'll adjust the ISO. If I can't add lights to the shot. Don't be afraid to play with the settings, and learn to use the histogram, it's your best friend for clean images. Aim to expose properly, because if it's not, even with 400 ISO you will get noise in the shadows. Thanks again for the comment!
I just got the Eos R i want to know if i can record certain types of videos before i send it back and upgrade. Do you have contact info?
Also mine will not let me change the log settings
I just started shooting in c log and my footage is not crisp ...need help ! I use a gimbal so it isn’t shakeup
Dude, so good. MORE VIDS PLZ!!
Thanks for the compliment and the comment Ray!
Rafael Ludwig you’re very welcome. I’m really liking/appreciating your approach to breaking things down and explaining them. I’m holding out for the rumored price drop of the EOS r to grab one!
What if your in a situation like a wedding where you have to push the iso to 1600 or even 2000?
Thanks Rafael for the valuable information and the style of presentation.
I would like to know, if this episode was shot on the C200 in 4k and brought onto a 1080p timeline, or what camera did you use. The most Videos I have seen shot with the EOS R are looking terrible, really really bad. It´s such a downer besides being a nice tool for Photographers.
This video was shot half and half - C200 4k Clog, and EOS R 1080p Clog. All the B-Roll was shot with the EOSR (except any shots of the EOSR) -specifically all the shots of the color chart near the end. I edit in a 4k Timeline, I scale up the EOSR 1080p footage to fit the 4k Timeline, and output and upload 4k.
At first, I was working with the EOS R the same way I would with the C200, and the footage would look bad comparatively, When I would trust the screen or viewfinder I could never get great footage. I feel when I used the EOSR I was using my Photographers mind. But the more I pushed the camera to find the sweet spots for shooting footage, I realized that when it's in movie mode I had to trust the Histogram more, and that is why after a bunch of tests I found that slightly over exposing I was able to produce a better image.
Thanks for the comment Mata!
When said keep your 'light mountain' in the middle it was set 2/3 to the right.
You are right, should have been more specific, generally in the middle, it really depends on the scene, and that scene was mostly bright. Thanks Mark!
Great video, clog is great to work with and exposing it properly is definitely key!
It really is! Thanks for the comment Tiago!
excellent video and explanation, how do you make the words come up on your screen without a background to it? that looks so professional.
Thanks for the comment and the compliment! I record externally with display info on, and I keep the lens cap on as well so it's recording black. Then I just overlay the footage using the screen mode.
@@RafaelLudwig maybe you could do a video on this it is fascinating how you did it, even though you just said what you did I cannot put that into making it happen.
I will, I think you are the 10th person to suggest it since that video came out. I may do it after my next video. Thank you for all the comments and for watching!
@@RafaelLudwig sounds like you will get a lot of views then
@@ironian24 10 for sure ;)
Hey man I love love your videos is there any way you can do a video about how to use the Atomos Shinobi with the Eos r everybody has the video for ninja five which is fine but I just need a little help with just Shinobi
Thanks Ashston! If I get my hands on the Shinobi I will, I currently have the Ninja V and BM Video Assist. Thanks for the comment!
Do you know maybe why my R doesn't have 59.99 fps, just 50.00? Thank you!
Is the camera set to PAL or NTSC? ( European vs North American frame rate standards).
That’s the only reason I can think of why.
Thanks for watching and the comment Ivan!
@@RafaelLudwig Yep, that is it! Zhank you!
Is there in difference if I shoot in NTSC in Europe?
@@RafaelLudwig I search it. Thank you again for respond!
Here is a advice for next video if you didn't make it till now. How did you make this cool camera screen on monitor?
@@ivanposlon4528 I made it! ruclips.net/video/sip4iMV1sNY/видео.html
How could you go below native iso for clog
What a useful video and information ! Thank you !!!!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for the comment Andres!
is the same with c log 3?
With the C200 I have found that C-Log3 proper exposure works really well, and no more than 1 over still works quite nice! The C200 is way more forgiving than the EOS R. The sensor is way small megapixels at 8.9 versus the 30mp on the R. So that makes for much larger photo sites to capture light. And that is why the Sony A7s3 is a beast in low light with 12mp. Thanks Eric for the question!
I am having a lot of noise and i dont know why. I am shooting in ISO 500 and well lighted scene...
What is your histogram saying? is the balanced to the middle? Have you tried to overexpose the C-Log a little? Thanks for the comment.
I have a very dark background, maybe Is this? If i overexpose 1 stop, could it handle better?
Yeah, it will definitely help as I show towards the end of the video - over exposing really reduces the noise in the shadows. I was struggling with it as well until I did the testing.
Hi there, are you shooting Raw or mp4 8 bit on the C200 for a match with the EOS R. Thanks
I mostly shoot 8bit on both the C200 and EOS R, and am careful to have exposures set properly. I only shoot RAW for bigger client work, and then I usually rent a additional C200s to match perfectly. And use the EOS R for BTS footage. Thanks for the comment!
Correct me if I wrong. You record your EOS R menu via hdmi to Atomos then you import to your timeline, make position and transform and then change the blend mode to screen or something else? Great tutorials BTW.
That is exactly correct! I record with the lens cap on to capture black and screen it over to get just the light parts on screen. Thanks for the comment Dejan!
subscibed after the r5 8k future plan video. M jus lookin foward to a videon on matching 1dx3 eos r and r5/r6
Thank you for the sub! and Hello! I am working on getting my hands on footage from both, I will definitely get the R5 at some point. Thanks again for the comments!
Well done
Thanks for watching and the comment Sunny!
Do you use false colors?
I do, when they are available. Unfortunately the EOS R doesn't have False color as an option. Thanks for the question!
Nice man. Subbed. :D
Appreciate it! Thanks for watching and the comment!
Thanks
what is the iso natif for the eos r?thanks
400 is the base iso for the R. Thanks for the question Max!
@@RafaelLudwig thanks for your answer
Great video!!!
Thank you!!
i got no clue how i miss this one :D , good one i need to check my camera now :DD ,
Nice! Glad you found it and it helps! Thanks Laurentiu!
Help me please ))canon R or Sony a7c?) 60% photos / 40% video )
between the two For the price - the R - but at that price I would lean towards the R6. I am a fan of Canon, I like the lenses and the overall workflow with the files for both Photo and Video. The A7C seems like a great camera but I have not had any hands on time with it.
Thanks for watching and the question!
@@RafaelLudwig for video Canon R6 better R, what about photo ? 20MP R6 vs 30MP R?
@@ka7iopeya my main photo camera was the 1Dx mk2 - and that has a 20mp sensor. Something to consider. And since you say 40% video the 6 is much much cleaner - and no cropped 4K.
It also depends if you already have lenses or not, if you have emount go with the Sony, if you have EF go canon.
@@RafaelLudwig What is your main camera now?
@@ka7iopeya Currently for Photos it's the R, I skipped over the R5 and R6 and waiting on the R1 to truly replace my 1Dxmk2.
you say over expose for less noise and yes that is well known in photography as well, however when you say over expose some people may take that literally and blow out the scene, you then stat to use the histogram which I always teach others to use and the peak needs to be in the middle, now just saying but if the peak is in the middle of the histogramme is that not just a perfect exposure? to be fair this is exactly what I do because relying on the camera exposure bar on the bottom of most screens is not good as this will indicate the exposure to be over exposed whilst the histogramme will show a perfect exposure with the peak in the middle. Wow that seemed long winded lol, I hope that makes sense.
You are right I should have been very specific, to expose correctly, then over expose by 1 or 2 stops. When in video mode the is no exposure bar, and histogram is not a precise tool, just a range of luminance info. I've seen way too many try and trust the image on the back screen of the camera, and it "looks" good, only to find that it's either way under or way over. So I teach them to look at the image AND the histogram to better gauge the exposure, or use a light meter. But no one uses a light meter these days ;)
Thanks again for the thoughtful comment!
awesome
I don't have that option on my EOS R.
I came for the C-Log but now I want that overlay lol
Thanks Micah! The C-Log is WAY more useful though! Thanks for the comment!
Very helpful, thanks
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching and the comment Mark!
Thank you for making this video! Cant wait to try and play with my 2nd hand EOS R, after the R5 and R6 really push down the EOS R price! Subscribe!
The EOS R is a great camera, and for the price it really performs well! By October there will be a flood of R's for sale. Thanks for the Comment Ricky!
Hi! My EOS R in Clog on 400 ISO is HORRIBLE. extremely noisy on 400. Even 800 is less noisy than 400. I tested on all levels, and ISO 100 is the cleanest, although it still isnt pristine... Even Neutral picture profile is better on ISO 100 than clog.....😢 Can someone tell me why? Every video tells otherwise... Im not a beginner, so this camera's poor video quality is driving me insane.
Look, first of all, you should understand that white clipping point on ISO 100 in neutral is the same as on ISO 400 in log. You should try to expose as bright as you can but without clipping in neutral on ISO 100 then just switch to Log and bring your exposure back in post. But don't shoot in Log lower than native ISO, it will clip your highlights sooner
@@rpokora Thanks for replying. I fixed it recently by selling it alltogether and switching to Sony 😄its been game changing.
@@VSNY_Prod LOL, btw this works on Sony as well
C log is confusing. Some say over expose others say don’t. I don’t know what to do. I’m just gonna go to film school lol.
C-Log in 8bit on the EOS R benefits from over exposing, cleaner image, on the C200 with C-Log 3 in 8bit you can push it a bit harder, and with C-Log 2 in 12 bit lots of room to play. It comes down to the camera you have, and to do one day of tests in different lighting conditions to understand the gear - and you'll do great in any situation moving forward.
I don't know about film school... I learned so much more and practical on sets and working on productions than I did at school. I should have started learning those things sooner. Though you will meet many like minded people that you will form great relationships with that will carry well beyond school.
Thanks for the comment!
What's painful about videography is how expensive everything is. That color checker he's got there? That little piece of plastic with colors on it? $150.
It doesn't make any sense except you realize they make it so expensive because they know people will buy it
