In this video I’m sharing my personal approach to exposing for Sony S-Log3 WITH and WITHOUT an external monitor. I also touch on why you don’t always have to overexpose and the dangers of blindly trusting the multimeter. The popular opinion is to overexpose and shoot between +1.7 and +2.0 & although I often follow this method, it can result in a lot more work. Unlike previous generation Sony cams, on the A7sIII, A7IV, FX3 & FX6, exposing correctly for skintones WILL NOT give you noise in the shadows especially when using the Phantom LUTS bit.ly/3cqdikV Slightly overexposing will give you more detail in the lows but you also sacrifice some range in your highs. Overexposing means more time in post where getting the perfect exposure is simply a click away from a beautiful image. Here you get deeper blacks but a more pleasant rolloff in the highlights, the choice is up to you! #howto #expose #slog3 #sonya7sIII #sonyFX3 #sonyA7IV #cinematic #settings #exposure

[@eike.zender]

I have another question for you :) Your Zebra Values for C1 and C2 are ment to use with the gamma assits turned on, right? So in this case, the zebra values on the pure log-footage would be different, same story, when you are using the pantom luts for example, right? Can you provide, which C1 and C2 values you use for monitoring with the pantom neutral lut? thanks a lot!!

[@mediaalchemyuk]

Zebras only monitor the log profile so they will show at the correct value no matter if you use gamma assist or not at 52ire. If you were to use zebras on rec709 not slog footage then light skin tones should be around 65 ire@@eike.zender

Excellent video, thanks! I'd been over-exposing 1.3 to 1.7 stops every time I shot in S-Log3, just because that's what most people say to do, but in my office set-up I'd always be struggling to bring back my highlights far enough. Exposing by eye using a monitor LUT is definitely bringing better results, will be testing out the spot metering soon though. Thanks again, great work 👊

[@jacques_crafford]

Thanks bro, I fully understand what you mean! I also had the same experience and eventually started relying more on my eyes. I guess it's a combination of things, so for now I first try the camera's tools and then double check it with my eyes.

Enjoyed this video. Always love seeing other workflows! Just a note that to get maximum dynamic range, you'd actually want to ETTR, not expose in the manner you're suggesting. Love your end look though! I was never fully happy with Phantom LUTs and ended up with Leeming LUTs as my go-to for technical conversions, which require an ETTR method to squeeze out the full range.

[@jacques_crafford]

Yeah I got you man, I actually enjoy doing Color Space Transform in DaVinci but for quicker turnarounds, the Phantom Luts are simply amazing!

[@hotrodrevue]

Great tutorial. The grey card is just not a practical option for a lot of us in real world run and gun scenarios. I'm new to the A7Siii but have found the meter is far from reliable and I jump between that, zebras, and just eyeballing it. Like the other comment above, would love to see your approach on the FX6. Thanks for taking the time to make these videos.

[@jacques_crafford]

You're most welcome, thanks for taking the time to comment. I fully agree with you, I really do use all these methods together and eyeballing is often the winner :)

Thank you! I always thought I am the only one exposing at average +1.7 at the EV but I guess I was doing it right all the time even tho it didn't feel quite right. Would be nice to "recalibrate" the EV that instead of +1.7 you can set this value to 0.

Hello, thank you for the super useful video! Tell me, is zebra 50 on the skin on the developed material or on the raw slog 3?

[@jacques_crafford]

You're welcome! 50 is on Slog3 without a LUT

[@fullframevisuals]

This was amazingly helpful! One last question I have is regarding to the differences between SLOG 2 and 3. Personally, I used to shy away from using SLOG 3 because it was my understanding that it was harder to grade and more prone to noise if not perfectly exposed. Is this something you would personally agree on, from your own experience?

Brilliant video as always Jacques! The best channel ever bro well done!! I was wondering what you thought of the HLG2 and HLG3 profiles? With your immense knowledge and understanding of Sony colour science receiving your insight and best way to get the best out of these profiles would be soooo AWESOME! They seem more forgiving and easier to film with and grade, but that's just my opinion would love yours.

[@jacques_crafford]

Thanks David, you are most kind! I actually tried out HLG3 for a while but I found that the best skintone come out of PP-Off and S-Log3. HLG is not a bad option but with the new firmware I actually prefer S-Cinetone overall except S-Log3 which I mostly shoot on these days.

[@ManuelParodiRamos]

Hi and thanks for your channel! A very rookie question. Would these ways of gauging exposure work on a more basic 8-bit camera like the zv-e10?

[@MitchSoda]

Amazing video! Thanks for making it. Love your work. One question, why does the smoke affect the multi metering when the ‘face priority in multi metering’ is on? Doesn’t that setting mean the meter will only adjust based off the exposure of the face? (Thus ignoring lighting changes around/behind the subject?). Thanks.

[@jacques_crafford]

Thanks Mitchell, really appreciate your feedback! You're absolutely right, it is supposed to do that but I turned it off in this example to illustrate my point since one doesn't always have a face to expose for and too many people are preaching that simply trusting the multimeter is the way to go. I have found that when face priority in multimetering is on, the average also goes down a little bit lower because it's considering the face as midtones.

[@paulg3388]

This is a great Video, but I will be honest, I am still struggling with Exposure and using SLOG3 through to an Atomos Ninja V. Just as Famau Media has commented, I have been following the exposure to +1.7 and +2.0 and I have been having terrible results. I am a novice, I will admit, and I am trying to learn all of this as quickly as possible having purchased the A7S iii and Atomos Ninja V, when perhaps I should have started and learned the skills on lesser gear. I will admit I am falling back to using S-Cinetone to avoid missing some key recording moments in my life, especially filming my young daughter as it's so key not to miss these things, thus the reason I invested in the best Camera and Monitor. I am still not getting this right, and still have issues with using the MM and the Ninja V Zebras and False Colours (don't get me started on how much I DO NOT understand this! lol). I will keep playing your video again and again and hopefully one day will just crack this SLOG3 approach. I have the gear, I just would almost want <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="61">1:1</a> training in various situations, but have yet to find anyone who can provide that. thanks again for such a great Video.

[@peterkertesz2861]

Hey! Great content - I do have a question which is confusing to me. Waveforms - when shooting in Slog3 (Sony) and Using the rec709 Lut monitor , do I based the Waveform of the Slog3 or the Lut?

[@Arnaud_duquesne]

Thanks for this crystal clear explanation Jacques!! Pardon my beginner question but: When people say X stops over exposed, you mean turning the exposure Dial with the camera set on Shutter priority Auto? If I'm shooting in full manual, the exposure dial doesn't do anything!

[@jacques_crafford]

You're welcome Arnaud! Yeah if you shoot manual the EV dial isn't relevant so the X Stops referred to are either measured with the Meter or just based on IRE values.

[@Nypics]

Great tutorial! Do you load the Phantom LUTs on your camera to preview as you shoot??
