Sony Picture Profiles Explained - with the ZV-E10

With the release of the ZV-E10, a lot of new users are confused by the many Sony Picture Profiles and which one to choose. In this video, I attempt to explain which picture profile to use and why.

Sony needs to consider this guy in the ranks and give him free gear. He is doing God's work on this particular camera. Really good for beginners. Understanding the camera as a whole. Imagine if each camera in the world had this level of commitment and guides. Insane!

I used to shoot in Portrait on my a5100 to mimic that cinematic look. Results were quite decent. It's much better than shooting on Standard imo. Now, on the ZV-E10 I'm shooting in Cine4 and have been pretty happy with the results. As you said, don't shoot in S-Log on 8-bit cameras. The Cine profiles are quite a good middle ground I think :) Great video, buddy!

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

exactly 👍👍 and thanks!!

[@sylvestergomes3078]

Awesome video once again man...showing how the PP's actually look was a brilliant move....will be of great help for beginners. I think PP4 gives the most natural skin tone and kinda removes the notorious green tint that Sony mirrorless cameras are infamous for.

This was super helpful! Question- on my ZVE-10, quite literally every picture profile except desaturated SLOG ones like PP7, I have to turn down saturation to like -13 because the skintones are SO overly saturated, basically bright orange. Is there some setting for this I might have wrong?

I feel like the "still" color mode is one of the best for video on sony cameras and almost no one uses it.....

[@DarrenJohn]

Thank you Mark, I have just recently started following your channel and consequently subscribed. I have a channel in London and doing ok. However, I need to go to next level (as up until now I have used my phone) This has been very helpful and following your videos on Sony ZV E10 I have now purchased the camera with the 10-18mm lens & 16-50mm lens - which consequently is the best to use? Look forward to the next video Best regards, Darren John

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

the 10-18 is a higher quality lens. the only reason to use the 16-50 is if you need a longer reach than 18 and also, you will get slightly more background blur on the 16-50 at its widest (at 16mm it’s a f3.5 aperture). but the difference between f3.5 and f4 is not much. I’m doing a review of the 10-18 on Monday. 👍👍

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

Thanks. For me - HLG3 with BT2020 (I assign it to PP10) and the LeemingLUT. THEN I add style LUTS. The LeemingLUT is just to get the image technically accurate. After that, feel free to grade however you want or out whatever creative LUT you want. But you can try PPOFF and try the teal and orange. That might work too because teal and orange kind of covers up everything.

Awesome video. I'm wondering what profile (or none at all and other settings) you'd recommend for stratight-out-the-camera? I don't have time/experience (yet) to do color grading, and I don't think my viewers would even notice. My main issue is that we film in our working garage/shop. So lighting isn't great (LED overhead replacement tubes), and so far I haven't found a setting that gives good results.

[@uziuchiha4771]

you might need a lens with a lower fstop

[@MSWracing]

@@uziuchiha4771 I've tried a 1.4

[@CraigFlemingMedia]

Did you try 1.4 with 50 shutter @ 25fps. Dynamic Range set to Auto & Profile Colour Off. Profile 10 would be better but you need to adjust contrast and saturation etc after.

[@wun12]

I'm planning to get this camera soon but with the kit lens for now. What picture profile would suit places like Disneyland outdoor and indoor inside the attraction waiting areas which are generally dark.

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

Stick with PPOFF for now. A good lens for what you're describing is the very affordable Sigma 30mm 1.4 - will be amazing in the dark geni.us/sigm30mm

yes there appears to be a strange thing with Sony and the weebil s. Try this: if you change the gimbal setting to "Canon," you can control shutter speed, aperture, and ISO in addition to shutter release. Note that this requires you to set the camera USB setting to "PC remote. Some people have had success choosing the Panasonic option as well

[@stefpix]

This is helpful. But I wonder if after all you just use the creative style Portrait or Natural, turn down saturation, contrast and sharpening, won’t it be good compared to a PP6 cinema 2 profile? HLG involves applying luts or other settings to each clip. It would have been good seeing the cinema and hlg ungraded clips next to the portrait creative style one.

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

Ungraded HLG is not the right colour space bt.2020 has to be conformed to Rec.709. So a side-by-side with a standard colour profile like cinema wouldn’t tell you anything

[@voiotv]

please tell me if you know each other. What is the difference, if any, in video capture if the switch is photo mode or video mode? Personally, I see that the same thing is being filmed in both ways.

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

If you press record while in photo mode, it will shoot video, but will default to the standard picture profile (PPOFF) if that's what you have set in photos. It will also be in the shoot mode you set in photo (A, S, P, M, iA). You can set basic video functions while in photo mode if you want to quickly grab clips in video while remaining in photo mode

[@voiotv]

@@MarkBennettCameraCrisis Thank you for the answer! Will the video quality be the same in both modes?

By any change you won't happen to have a capture card like Elgato around? Would love to see a tutorial from you showing how to use the zve10 as a webcam

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

Will do - however, I will tell you now that it can operate like any other camera with a capture card, BUT the ZV-E10 has an added feature - USB-C streaming. It’s 720, but that’s more than enough sometimes for streaming and webcam. Press “enable USB-C streaming”, plug in your USB-C cord and you can use it as a webcam or go into something like OBS with nothing extra needed. Great option when you don’t need the higher resolutions

[@jpawlowski]

I did some play around with the profiles and Leeming LUTs. Wonder how they are correctly used when using HDMI output for live streaming. I assume that no regular logs will make it through due to HDMI 2.0 limitations (couldn’t find out if the cam can do HDMI 2.0b and proper chroma subsampling; same for Elgato Cam Link 4K which I use). As HLG are hybrid and were actually developed for backwards compatibility, I guess the information just walks through and if software can interpret it correctly, it should work to apply the HLG3 Leeming LUT as well. However, I saw that images are really dark and even though you told that higher illumination would be required, I think that actual sunny daylight right next to a window should be sufficient for a confirmation. Had no luck here :-( That being said, I figured that using the PP1 setting with Cine2 as explained in the Leeming LUT setup guide would do pretty fine. Still wonder if I could get more dynamic range in another way as it actually could be very useful in my live streaming use case. Apropos dynamic range, the Sony function is supposed to be off so I guess that’s what the LUTs compensate anyway if I put them into OBS?

[@OTDUDE]

Have you had any luck with your steaming setup? I am hoping to use OBS but apparently this does not support HDR. So wondering what picture profile or settings will "pass through" to it via HDMI and my Elgato 4k capture? Don't have this camera yet, but hoping to use HLG, e.g. PP10.

Hello Mark, amazing content, very useful but I still can't find an answer to what I'm trying to do. I don't want to film people but hardware, unboxing vids for example. \ Can you recommend anything?

Hi Mark. Thanks so much for your informative videos. I have a quick question. Whenever I use HLG3 picture profile on my Sony ZV E10 I get double screen/ split screen footage. It looks fine on the camera monitoring but when I put it in my video editor the footage is split in two halfs. Asif the screen is cut half vertically in the middle and I have two images on either side ( kinda what raw 3D footage looks like ) I've changed the settings from 1080 to 4k but I still get this double image footage.

I edit using Apple iMovie, so I don't think there is much color grading available. What profile would you suggest I use; especially for studio talking head videos? Also, what does one use with the color checker you were holding up?

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

if you are using sunlight from a window, you’ll have good results with PPOFF or Portrait. if you are using studio lights, I would look at PP3 or Portrait. but experiment until you find a look you light. the XRite Color Checker is to help you get your exposure and colours accurate. you use it in combination with color grading tools in editing.

Didn't these look as Fujifilm x100vi film simulations?

[@ayhancapan]

So I'll shoot creative style - portrait I think. Thank you...

Mark, what is a run and gun PP as I am planning to vlog morning to evening in so many evvironments.Pretty much moving between indoors, outdoors, sports, cars, shops, etc. Perhaps PP Off?:)

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

yes - I would do ppoff. it’s pretty good for an all rounder

[@fabianpetrescu]

Thanks a lot! @@MarkBennettCameraCrisis

Mark, you assume we know what we are doing. I couldn't even get the camera to allow me to set profiles!!! I assume it was because I had it in the first movie setting? Im not even sure Im recording in 4k!!

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

I have a settings guide coming on Monday

Just checking- is the shirt you are wearing in the test shots with the picture profiles (outdoors and indoors) the same one as your black shirt in your regular graded shots (i.e. your shirt in 7:18 appears like a grey heathered shirt vs 7:24 looking black in the video)? Thanks for making these videos! Also you have a free LUT in the description - is this your own LUT that you've been putting on top of your leeming LUT?

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

That is a different shirt - not the black one. The LUT in the description is just meant to be used on it's own without the Leeminglut

[@MsHaeda]

Got it. Thank you for your help!@@MarkBennettCameraCrisis

Can a viltrox speed booster be put on it to help the crop? Is the kit lens a ef lens?

[@MarkBennettCameraCrisis]

The mount is Emount - so all Sony full frame and apsc glass for emount will fit. A speed booster will still have a crop if you turn stabilization - my suggestion is that if you want to use the electronic stabilization - get a wider Emount lens like the 10-18 f4 from Sony.
