How to Use FALSE COLOR in 2 Minutes

[@shirakawanaoya]

Saw this today and finally learned how to use it. Thank god for youtube and this channel keeping their old videos up.

[@CliffFennell]

Why would anyone dislike this? He tells you under 3 mins what this is about. I wish those people would leave a comment so we could understand why they disagree. This was a great video!

[@theherbiebrown]

Thank you for posting this video. Great explanation with no fluff. It is also easy to understand. I’m new to false color and IRE. This helps me tremendously. AWESOME VIDEO!🔥🔥🔥

[@peterkertesz2861]

I have a question. If recording SLOG 3 but using a Monitor LUT (not baking it in), when I activate the LUT on the Atomos Shinobi, do I now use false colors to expose for the LUT? How does that work?

[@jaywalker.]

So incredibly clear. Thank you!

[@d_FLDE]

Thank you. Coming from the photography site I am a histogram professional. This little video was so helpful to understand false colors and how to use them if you already know what you are doing otherwise :) ✌️🤪😂❤️❤️👍👍👍

[@JeffCreates]

Great video. Didn't know what IRE or false colour (but knew i should). 3 minutes later, i know them both without feeling like a fool. Thanks. (ps, the music level is fine).

[@yousefalnajim]

Highly appreciated, Thanks a Lot.

[@POLSKAKOREANKA]

Hey great tutorial. I just bought the VS-3 and was looking forward to someone explaining the false color in detail. Just like a Christmas present. Thanks Ted.

[@aputurelighting]

+Hexa Wolf Productions Ted here! Happy to help and Merry Christmas! In the next four weeks, we'll have three more monitor tutorials coming out for functions like Peaking and Zebra. Be sure to let us know if there's anything else you want to learn.

[@renitch]

+Aputure great videos, and also looking forward to the new fine HD monitors. any info on when will they be available to purchase? greets

[@aputurelighting]

+Rene Gallo Glad to hear it was helpful! They will be available in the second week of January.

[@POLSKAKOREANKA]

+Aputure Hey Ted :) I must say I'm very hapy with the monitor so far. It took some time before I could connect it to my BMPCC as the company I bought my HDMI to HDMI micro cable took one whole month to ship it... And on top of that they sent the wrong one :c But anyway now I can finally check it out with no problems. I suggest mentioning somewhere that the VS series monitors work with BMPCC as many people have problems with finding a right monitor for this very popular camera. When I was looking for a monitor I couldn't find exact information will it work or not ;/

[@jordans2678]

Thanks. No longer avoiding false color to determine exposure.

[@mOo84]

Helpful video! There seem to be a lot of conflicting opinions about whether false colour should be reading the LOG signal or from a REC709 LUT. I shoot in LOG on my BMPCC6K but monitor externally with the exact LUT I’ll be applying in the edit (Buttery Natural REC709). The monitor gives me the option to ignore the LUT/look and only judge the LOG signal - and I’m struggling to understand the benefits of doing that if you want to try and nail it in camera as much as possible. When reading the LOG signal, IRE values across the scene are very slightly ‘darker’ but if you are going for specific IRE values for your subject then these will not be 100% accurate once you apply the LUT.

[@smalltalk.productions9977]

still relevant. thanks for the effort and the sharing. thumbs up.

Nice one..I actually learned something today...thank you

[@CMTB]

Love it! Thanks for making it short and simple!

Facts

[@cpt33studios]

Very clear and informative. Thank you.

[@coppermilearts9656]

Thank You. This info got me a job on a cbs shoot low key

[@PhilippJansen]

Thanks for this explanation. I have a few questions: 1) When you change focus (e. g. foreground to background) will the false color change too on the fly? 2) If you change the monitors calibration settings do the live viewed false colors change too?

[@jonathangutierrez3607]

I have, in my office, black and white furniture. Unfortunately, there's no way for me to expose the image without hitting underexposed black or overexposed white. How do you decide what to sacrifice? As a general rule, is it better to under expose or overexpose if you just can't expose everything properly?

[@Der_Marc]

Thank you. So helpful ❤

[@NathanYounghusband]

I'll be sure to try this out on my shoot tomorrow!

[@Marlonorellana]

Does this take into account for the different picture profiles? As in slog2 for sony a7iii, from what people say it's good to over expose by 2 stops. I mainly shoot hlg but do I need to look at false colors differently with the hlg picture profile?

[@ArctisTheMonk]

one (maybe silly) question but i cant find anything about it. How do i check focus with false color? or do you just switch to false color to check exposure and go back to normal view for focus work?

[@TomasVillegas]

Hey Ted, any reason my VS-2 doesn't have this feature? I'm on the most recent version of firmware too (V1.3). This feature is big time helpful, hopefully I can get it on mine!

[@aputurelighting]

+Tomas Villegas Hey Tomas! The VS-2 doesn't have False Color. That said, the VS-2 FineHD, which is the newest model does have it. Sorry!

[@sparkwilkie2577]

May I please ask for some advice when using false color to get proper exposure for exposing slog2? A lot of people are saying with slog2 you should over expose by 2 stops, then the color on false color mode will not be exact? any tips? Thank you

[@lakshyamiglani6534]

What should be the ideal monitor brightness?

[@JustinEspejo]

great short informative video! learned something new here! thanks!

[@orbitance9401]

Great video! Thanks Ted.

[@suneefilm]

much better explained than the youtube 1st search result.

[@LaceyFilm]

I've noticed that the IRE bar has changed on the newer firmware, 2.2 in my monitor's case. For example light grey runs from ~60-76, while the one in your video goes from ~63-80. What prompted this change? Is one more accurate?

[@daviddavis5631]

I have false color in my Ninja Flame and FeelWorld monitor but never used them. I will now. Thanks...

[@skyglidestudios3443]

Perfect explanation. Thank you so much!

[@lvbmediatv7309]

Thanks, i always wanted to know about false color. cheers...

[@BLANCO_MUSIC]

Does that go by what the camera sees or what the monitor sees

[@joefilmco]

Super helpful, thank you sir

[@ElBoyoElectronico]

Thank you 🙏

[@nick7813]

So basically orange and red are big no no’s. Is yellow okay though?

[@AllThingsFilm1]

I've been using histogram on my GH5. When I have my Ninja Inferno attached, I have to start using False Color more.

[@finnfransen_official279]

Nice Vid Bro 😎

[@Chloe-xn4dw]

So helpful, thank you!

[@conorronan3605]

V helpful. Thank you

[@johnger850305]

Very NICE!!

[@estebanisswimming]

Thanks man

[@MarceloBuainain]

Great! Unfortunately the music hard to listen to what you were saying...

[@colvinang2684]

How about False Color vs Zebra?

[@azlanarainkhan4549]

Good knowledge

[@djlive408]

Next time lower the music a little more please.. hard to listen to what you were saying... great video

[@sandracoulson803]

get rid of the background music its distracting and makes it difficult to concentrate if people wanted to listen to music there are options available, people came to the video to listen to your voice.

False color- wave form monitor for dummies.

[@Doodles1947]

If you think you can explain false colors in 2 minutes, you can't. You made a video. You didn't teach much.

[@DavidKfilmmaker]

the IRE you state is for a white person. they vary dpending on race

[@cloud9nerecords]

You don't know how to explain.

[@MisterDoge]

He did just fine to me.

[@dylanproctorable]

You don’t know how to understand

[@Panther-]

You must not have a brain...I understood him clearly
