![]() ![]() It is the best choice for shooting in 10-bit, but if you are shooting with an 8-bit codec it should be avoided as it will cause issues with banding and compression artifacts. S-Log2 is good, but S-Log3 is less contrasty and easier to grade. The Sony A7S III has two different Log profiles to choose from: S-Log2 and S-Log3. Shooting in XAVC S-I will give you the highest quality and, personally speaking, I only ever shoot with my cameras at the absolute highest quality settings no matter what. I believe in getting right to the meat of it, and not dragging you along until the end so without further ado, these are the settings you should use. Simply put, if you’re not filming in log, you’re throwing away almost half of the details in your images and there is no way to get them back.Ĭheck out this great article we posted a little while back with Gerald Undone that dives a little deeper into what log is and how to work with it in DaVinci Resolve: Common Log Grading Mistakes and How to Avoid Them The Best Settings for the Sony A7S III Log is a method of compressing the colors and dynamic range of the image into a signal that retains the most information for professional color grading in post. Understanding the importance of shooting in Log is the first step in understanding how to properly use your Sony A7S III. Thankfully, wolfcrow has put together an in-depth guide on how to get-it-done-right when filming in S-Log3 on the new Sony A7S III. ![]() The Sony A7S III is a terrific, low-cost, dynamite low-light powerhouse, but when you’re not shooting with it in raw, taking the time to get your color and exposure set properly the first time is of the utmost importance (even in 10-bit). Sure, mistakes happen, lines are forgotten, nothing is ever going to be perfect, but when you’re a cameraman knowing how to properly expose your camera to get the best possible image is paramount. When you’re a professional filmmaker, not doing it right the first time means you’re losing money. And unless you’re Peter Jackson, that probably won’t ever happen. In filmmaking, you never get a second chance unless you’ve got a lot of money to pay for a reshoot. Use, , or depending on the element you want to preview.As John Robert Wooden, the famous NCAA basketball coach, once famously said, “If you don’t have time to do it right, when will you have time to do it over?”. Although applies a greater degree of contrast than the S-Log gamma curve, gradations in high-luminance areas may become invisible. When you adjust the shooting exposure with set to and then switch to, a low-contrast image will be displayed with ITU709 contrast applied. is a gamma curve for easily previewing a level of gradation equivalent to that of an image recorded using or and graded to ITU709.Reproduces the / display on the monitor or viewfinder for (color mode)/ (gamma) and / images. An easy way to reproduce the effect of color grading on images, for display on the monitor or viewfinder.Īvailable in log shooting with Picture Profile. For display with normal contrast on the monitor or viewfinder, which is helpful in subject checking, focusing, and other precise camerawork, you can use the following functions.Īvailable in log shooting with the function. S-Log gamma images are harder to monitor at the time of shooting because they have lower contrast than usual. You can also try performing basic grading work using Catalyst Browse/Catalyst Prepare from Sony Creative Software at the following URL. To perform grading on images recorded using S-Log, dedicated grading software or video editing software with a grading function is required. On models without, choose from PP7, PP8, or PP9 in. These effects are finalized during the post-production process.īefore S-Log shooting, change the setting. You can create a variety of effects such as fresh morning scenes, scenes with tension, scenes that recall the past, and many more. ![]() Images recorded using S-Log and S-Gamut can be enhanced with detailed image effects during the post-production process. The S-Log gamma curve and the S-Gamut color reproduction are used for shooting such images. To make such effects possible, images must be shot with a wide dynamic range and wide color reproduction range. When using S-Log to shoot, performing grading in the post-production process will allow you to create image effects matching each scene with a great degree of flexibility. S-Gamut is color reproduction that is supposed to be used together with S-Log. S-Log is a gamma curve that is optimized under the assumption that grading will be performed in the post-production process. ![]()
