I was sold on Eterna. I still like it. But Classic Chrome, in my opinion too, just has something special. If you're in high contrast situations, then Log will definitely help you out. But, on the whole, I agree, it's not necessary to shoot Log ALL the time, especially indoors. Maybe on high-end cinema cameras, but not when working with the XT3/4. 🙂

Thanks for this video and sharing your thoughts and experiences, John! I shoot 95% 10-bit F-Log and I love it. ☺️ The remaining 5% I shoot with flat Eterna, typically in very dark spaces, when lower ISO is better, or in very cloudy spaces, when it is better not to squeeze the information too flat. I find shooting F-Log pretty straightforward with always checking the histogram not to clip the highlights and exposing a bit to the right. My color grading with Resolve is also very quick and flexible with power grades, i.e. clear and preset node trees including different LUTs (your LUT of course (!), Eterna, some other LUTs including e.g. Buttery LUT and with CST the ARRI-like Phantom LUTs originally made for S-Log!). I get great results with a couple of clicks only, thanks to Fuji's fantastic image quality. I have not yet fallen in love with Classic Chrome, I don't know why. 🤔 I should give it a try some time!

Sometimes I think the people who preach the log format, regardless of the enviroment and situation they shoot in, haven't really understood what it was actually intended for. They want all the dynamic range they can get and yet they keep shooting log in scenarios with low dynamic range, which introduces a whole lot of issues like noise and ugly shadows with purple patches etc. I made the mistake once by taking the advice about shooting log all the time and came back from a shoot with almost unrepairable footage. Since then I've switched to using a flat Eterna profile for the majority of what I shoot to get the cleanest image throughout the spectrum, and only switch to F-log during high contrast situations like indoor scenes, where I want to retain the highlights coming through the windows, while being able to expose correctly for the subject I'm shooting 🙂

@@johnstamw I most certainly have and at least I learned the lesson on a low budget shoot where nothing major was on the line. I can't speak for the people shooting on high-end cinema cameras like ARRI's and RED's, which undoubtedly handles everything better. But for people shooting on mirrorless cameras, I wish more people would just shoot in normal Rec.709 profiles and only shoot log in the situations that calls for it. This video is such a breath of fresh air and the kinda stuff people should watch, before venturing into permanently shooting log, cause guys like Peter McKinnon said so...

As you said log is a good profile but not for quick turn arounds, I use classic chrome plus s few other simulations and when it comes to contrasty situations I bump up my DR to 400 and it does a perfect job which saves me tons of time to color correct and color grade.

I agree. I think people are usually missing the whole point of Log or maxing your DR. You just have to ask your self what is the actual dynamic range on the shot/scene what you are shooting? You don't need +13 stops of dynamic range when shooting for example overcast day. There might be only under 10 stops of dynamic range on certain light conditions. Or is maxing your DR even desirable? Blown out highlights or otherwise strong contrast might the desired look sometimes. So those extra stops of DR just makes your life harder at post production. And even if you would so to speak ''benefit'' from those extra stops it might still be making your post harder thus taking a toll from something else more valuable at the edit. Especially if you are (Like my self) not so into learning pro color grading stuff and rather focus on what really counts = what happens in the front of the lens :)

It doesnt look natural. I would only use that setting on extreme dr encironments and wide shots, not on closeups or midshots where you see face details.

I fully agree with your approach. Great video👍 Fyi..when it comes to “You must do it this way” “You should be doing this” “You should be buying this” “I hate that”, and regurgitating the opinions and styles of the more active KZbinrs, Americans are the No1 in the world. 😂😂 look at the idiots who all must buy straps by Peak Design. PD must be laughing at all thess kids. So easily manipulated😂 Same goes for shooting in RAW, F-Log, must have dual card slots etc. The market itself is so highly manipulated. Keep up the great work👍 Subscribed!
