Low Light Video Test | Sony a6700 + 11mm f1.8

Super light and tiny set up! Simple low light video test. Shot with Sony a6700 and Sony 11mm f1.8. Shot on slog3, 10 bit, no noise reduction applied. I used 2nd native ISO 2500. Enjoy!

No NR is pretty crazy here. Thanks for this.

Low light is something that i have always struggled with! Whether it be with my DSLR or my GoPro, it really has always been a struggle! I need to learn more about it haha

[@endlessshorizon]

Sony a7s3, Sony FX3 or Sony ZVE1 and you will have no problem to shoot in low light 🙂 ZVE1 is probably the best vlog, travel camera now on the market . These cameras share the same sensor and they are beast in low light 🙌

[@raj_snaps]

Oh wow it handles the lowlight pretty well! Just enough noise you could probably get rid of in post 😄 Great shots too!

[@endlessshorizon]

Hey, thanks mate. I know but I decided to post as it is, because not many people has a denoise reduction tool. So its simple, straight from camera. Still I think it came out pretty good because some shots are really extreme low light and for an apsc camera I think its great!

[@raj_snaps]

@@endlessshorizon yeah makes sense! It did come out pretty great regardless tbh ^^

[@jeremylovechild]

dope video. just picked up the viltrox 27 and 75mm 1.2's definitely going to try some low lights like this. i love this track you get it from epidemic sound?

[@endlessshorizon]

@@jeremylovechild Sounds good man 👌 I can’t tell you exactly as not long ago I switched to Artlist but I think this track is from Epidemic Sound.

Yeah, it is pretty good, at least for me is enough. Thanks for watching !

Thank you too 👍👍👍👍Take care 🤞🤞🤞🤞@@endlessshorizon

[@kylinblue]

Can you shoot HLG and upload in HDR for next low light test? KZbin compression is making shadow area very very pixilated/banded.

[@endlessshorizon]

I’ll see what I can do. Thanks for watching 🙏🙂

nice video, how do you find the 11mm for shooting inside the car? is it wide enough?

[@endlessshorizon]

@@VictorReviewsGarage Yeah it is wide enough, you can definitely shoot car vlog type of videos. I made a video about 11mm lens with some more examples if you want you can check it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fJumfGCNo991iKMsi=OBm-1I9VhaN-TnYp

Can you please make a video of your Slog3 settings , like the exposure, zebra settings and all?

[@endlessshorizon]

Sure thing I can make one 🙂 Thanks for watching!

[@Sambo111]

Man i didnt know its possible to shoot that ISO. i use HLG-3 with my sony a6700 and 15mm 1.4 + Sony PZ 10-20 F4. so i tested my F4 lens on both 800/2500 ISO and its looks nice with little noise. so i will use more my F4 lens indoor instead of swiching lences to my F1.4. Thanks

[@endlessshorizon]

Glad it helped 🙌 I will make more videos to compare slog 3 and s cinetone, because in the night s cinetone is a clear winner 🙂

[@endlessshorizon]

Hi 👋 thanks for watching 🙂 This was shot at 24fps

[@LauAM80]

Hi ! Thank you very much for your reply 🙂 I have another question : is the a6700's "hot shoe" external microphone connector mechanically compatible with regular non-Sony external microphones ? For example, Sennheiser's MKE 400, which I own. Unfortunately, I can't find this info anywhere.

[@endlessshorizon]

@@LauAM80 I believe you can because it’s like rode mic, same kind connections 🙂

Thank you 🙂

[@endlessshorizon]

@@LauAM80 No problem mate 🙂

[@WhatThePheel]

How does your footage have no noise? I have the exact same camera, with exact same settings, and a f1.4 lens and there is always tons of noise in the shadows filming in slog3. Some scenes you capture wasn't properly exposed, but there was no noise at all?

[@endlessshorizon]

@@WhatThePheel Because I shot on the second native ISO 2500 all the scenes and that’s why some of them are a bit underexposed. Native ISOS 800 & 2500 will give you much clearer shadows and of course you can always denoise it a bit with editing software. By the way when you color grade never lift shadows up, don’t try to get all details in the shadows it will always bring noise to your footage.

[@WhatThePheel]

@@endlessshorizon I understand how native iso work. As I quoted above, I shot in the exact same settings you had which was ISO 2500, in extremely dark scenes, even with a f1.4 lens 24fps 1/48. I had tons of noise and 2500 was not bright enough. Seeing as how you said that there was no noise reduction used, sounds too good to be true. Especially the scene with you sitting in the car, there's no way that scene had no noise at all. There must be something that's different, as it doesn't make any sense. Do you convert all your slog footage to rec 709? I find that changing the color space automatically introduces tons of noise.

[@endlessshorizon]

@@WhatThePheel Well I don’t remember exactly what I did with this footage, normally I convert to rec709 but sometimes I just use luts. Another thing, have you tried to upload your footage to KZbin because YT compression actually gives a different look from original and it kinda gets rid of some of the noise. But this is strange for me I normally don’t have problems with noise, I mean in extreme situations yes it’s noisy, but if it’s grain I don’t mind that it gives kinda vintage vibe to the video, but if it’s chromatic abbreviation type that’s definitely not good.

[@iamarunch]

How much difference do you get when you use a f2.8 lens

[@endlessshorizon]

It’s quite a big difference if you compare it in the low light.

[@johnsonguite]

Sony 6700 in Slog3 has two native iso: 800 and 2500? Are the above two native iso applicable for photos also?

[@endlessshorizon]

Yes, correct native iso's are 800 & 2500 for slog3 and 125 & 400 for scinetone, but in photography there are no such a thing, just keep iso 100 for lowest noise image, but wont be affraid to shoot in higher iso, you can easily denoise with software like LightRoom, personally I like and I dont mind a little grain in my images makes photos look not too digital.

[@johnsonguite]

@@endlessshorizon thanks for the reply... very informative and also about the grain that you mention in photo, saw grain in my Fuji XT5 and i thought it was mistake, i put the grain option to OFF and it came without any grain.. but a fren of mine told me that grain are in vogue these days especially among new generations... maybe Fuji intentionally put the grain option in the camera keeping in mind some like grainy looks on their photos...

[@endlessshorizon]

I don’t know much about Fuji cameras but Sony definitely has that feature, you can let the camera denoise your photos partially or fully, but I prefer raw photos so if needed I can denoise it myself 🙂
