I just did some testing on this. So it's interesting - I wouldn't say it "reduces noise" as much as you seem to gain about 2/3 of a stop of light if you shoot in HLG3 Gamma. So essentially your 51,200 ISO goes a little bit further than it would in the stills gamma. I compared my results and the noise is the same at both ISOs when properly exposed, but you have to essentially compensate more in Still than in HLG3. Awesome find!

Not sure if anyone else has mentioned this but what you showed is how I understand that Fujifilm uses their Dynamic Range 200%, 400%, Auto & DR Priority modes. Applying a tone curve to shadows & highlights at different ISO settings. It’s good for people who shoot JPEG only, using the Cine Gamma for example opens up the shadows and can help avoid crushed blacks. But it comes at a cost to RAW image data being manipulated too. Great to see it being shown so clearly!

@tycrecords41755 жыл бұрын
Here's the deal with the Cine and Log gammas on the Sony cameras: the changing ISO range is just is digital adjustment / metadata inside the camera. At the sensor level (and actual data in raw files), the sensitivity does not really change. Using a6300 as an example, normal profile @ISO100, Cine @ISO200 and Log @ISO800 are all the same thing. They all clip to white at the same point, and the blacks are lost in noise at the same point. On jpg and video files, the gamma is adjusted so that Cine looks a stop brighter, and log looks three stops brighter - thus the higher nominal ISO setting. A similar thing applies to RAW: as far ss i can tell, the above are all the same thing as far as the actual recorded data goes, and the differences are just metadata. When you set the ISO to 2000 on all profiles, you added more actual gain on the sensor level to the normal profile shots than to the cine (1 stop) and log (3 stops). If you look closely at your shots, you will probably find that in addition to the gamma differences, the normal profile shot likely has a bit more noise than the cine and log shots due to this additional gain. If your shot had hard highlights, they likely would also burn to white at different points in the raw files (i have not tested this, but in theory this should be the case).
@geraldundone5 жыл бұрын
This seems very reasonable, but why not then have a flag that we can disable in the developer. "Ignore Gamma" or something that you put a check next to.

@tycrecords41755 жыл бұрын
BTW, i just did a quick test, and at least as far as the highlight are concerned, my theory holds... At ISO 2000 the normal mode shot clips to full white earlier than a log profile shot. There is a real difference in the exposure at the sensor level - the ISO is nominally the same, but it actually changes what is recorded in the RAW. So, this also means that there is an actual valid reason to use Cine or Log color profiles when shooting raw: and it's actually the same reason these profiles are used with video. When using Cine, you can underexpose by one stop to protect highlights, and still get a normal looking on-camera preview (and jpegs). Or use slog and underexpose three stops to keep even more highlights while getting a similarly normal looking (albeit low contrast and noisy) image on camera's preview.

Okay... so I've been shooting stills with Slog2/Slog3 for more than a year with thousands of images in that gamma.

Generally speaking there's nothing wrong with shooting images in S-Log. It's just that your ISO is shifted so you need to expose differently. But a raw image at ISO 3200 in S-Log should be identical to a standard gamma image at ISO 800.

Thanks for the video. Another thing I've noticed is that having Picture Profile enabled or not affects whether the Sony's built-in Lens Compensation (specifically and only Shading Comp.) gets baked into the RAW file. Having a PP on means Shading Comp. is baked into the RAW file, but PP Off means no Shading Comp. in the RAW file. You would expect Shading Comp. to get baked into the JPEG file as standard, but I always assumed that Lens Comp. would not apply to RAW (at least based on previous experience). Apparently I was wrong. The danger of only having an Auto/Off option for a setting, rather than a fully manual Auto/On/Off.

I was testing home on live subjects using eye-af and stationary subjects with A7iii and A7RV, and it seem like the AF hit better with STD vs Portrait, and it even seem better increasing contrast/sharpness.

Hey so question I just shot a real estate shoot and I realized I had the picture profile set to HLG is there a way to change my Picture profile to none or am I stuck with it . It doesn’t look bad but I e never done this before.

What if I change in capture one, to no color corection so it's neutral with no Capture One thing under the different ICC profiles?

Doesn’t light room just correct it into it’s one color space though?

I wonder if using silent shooting mode makes a difference. It seems like in silent shooting mode the picture profile is not applied (You can only change the pp first an then change to silent and not visa versa, but ... would be interesting to know)

Interesting idea. I'll add it to the test list. 😃

XciteLight I agree. As someone who uses electronic shutter often I’d be interested.
