Yo this has helped a ton! will really help take my content to the next level. As you know as a creator yourself, you are always trying to better and hone in your skillz
Good video and good info! Best what you have over other TH-camrs is your personality. No arrogance. Others do not say why to use S-log 2 over the others only that it is flat and the color can be put in later. Thanks. I was a photographer 25 years ago (Minolta 600si Classic) and now, with digital and all the tech and ability to make vids,...I have a lot to learn! Thanks!
So since ive upgraded my camera to BMPCC 4K, and i still have my a6400. i figured i can now play with a6400 settings.......with the setting you have provided.....I have to say.....I am FREAKING BLOWN AWAY. I mean this is by far the best settings i have had on my a6400. I expose between 1.7+ and 2.0 and WOW!!!!!!!!!! My footage looks great.im not a colorist by any means, but to be honest it was easier to grade then i remember grading slog footage. i could still use some learning but iam shocked by how the footage i have came out. im more of a moody look type of guy. more darker but i believe i can stretch the colors out alot. Thank you man. you are mvp and i know i subscribed about a month ago for a reason. keep it up.
Interesting video man! I'm in my 2nd year of uni and branded product content is what I want to go into so its handy to know about log stuff. Keep it up!
Thinking of picking up a Sony A7RII cause of you. been watching all your videos on repeat so i get hella excited when a new video is released! Thanks for putting in the most amount of effort in your videos
yoo man i would highly recommend the A7RII its a really good price now aswell, I have had it now for nearly 3 years and its never let me down! plus the 42MP is outstandingly sharp! Glad your liking the videos man got some more vids coming soon!
I feel ppls videos should always have a thru to the beginner so thank you. It is a little hard to grasp which, What, and why when it comes to pic profiles .
Wonder why your camera focus kept loosing / grabbing focus. I have the same issue with my Sony a6600 and can't figure out why it won't stay locked on my eye.
I found this very helpful, Im mainly a photographer that wants to get more into videos and this helped me understand a bit more about picture profiles, so thank you!
Congrats on the 20k! Could you do more videos like this for videography and cinematography please because I'm trying to start videography and I don't know how to and where to start because I don't know anything about it
Technically standard profile is the most realistic since it’s capturing what’s actually in front of you. Grading used to be something only experiences colorists would do in motion pictures. Now everyone has the tools, which means it’s also a lot easier to mess up.
6:00 Turning contrast down is not same as shooting in log profile because log footage's data in a logarithmic manner where as traditional footage is in a liner manner. Btw love your colour grading specially on your newer videos. ❤
Congrats on the 20k my g! What are your thoughts on HLG and all of the HLGs, heard it's easier to handle than slog and gives you more dynamic range than it🧐
Found this video really helpful for slog2. Any ideas what lens you used, the ISO setting, Kelvin, F stop and % on the Godox light. I have this equipment but struggling a bit I think with exposure. Oh and do we need a slog > rec709 Lut before any colour correction / grade eec ? Thanks again.
came into this video with no idea what a picture profile is, now i have some understanding. dont think itll come in too much handy for me (yet!) since im still mostly just making gaming videos but this'll be helpful once i start to do more real-life film making, i hope
I shot my a6400 for the first time, on Auto, late afternoon, thin overcast day, the colors, here in the tropics, were so fake, especially green foliage. Without grading, (which I do not yet wish to spend the time learning and doing) Auto is too fake and S-log is too flat. I saw a vid on TH-cam and PP4 seemed to look ok for the short-term until I start grading, What do you think? Any suggestions for acceptable color right out of the camera?
I really need to start doing this. How hard or easy is it to much Color grades on footage from different equipment. For example I’d be in SLOG2 on the A7ii, then D-cine like on the Osmo action 3 and mini 3/Avata. Is it easy enough to match as I wouldn’t want it to be too jarring going from clip to clip.
Hi! Thanks for a nice video. But there is one point I can't noy to ask ) Through all of the video I see slight focus hunting. Very strange for sony A7iii. Do you know why it happened?
Okay can someone please help…. I see the Difference between Picture Profiles 1 through 10 but what about changing all the settings in between.. like black level and Gamma(Slog, HLg)… To creator. You specify which profile you use but are you using SLog in picture profile 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 or10 and what are the creative styles….
OMG! I love that teal and orange color you had showed very briefly at 2:47! Please can you share settings in the same way you have done in the description for picture profiles, but to achieve teal and orange straight out the camera! I am colorblind and really struggle to colorgrade anything in post when i need to, but now that I mostly use my camera for streaming through Camlink, I've had no luck playing around in Color Depth. I would really appreciate it if you could show me this directly in picture profiles! Big Love To You
Congrats again for the 20k!! Which luts do you use for your videos? I´ve always love your video look. And i think a great video would be to talk about your Godox Sl60w because the light quality is just so important in videography, and people always think the only way to get a quality light is buying the Aputure 120dII
Congratulations Ben!!!! Love your videos thank you for covering all the details big fan ❤️❤️❤️❤️ also just want to add that whenever you're using too many hand gestures your focus shifts from your eyes to your hand this happens throughout the video?? Can this like be avoided??
What is a good picture profile for the A6400 if I'm filming a driving scene with a camera mount on as car ? And can I use the same setting for the interior and exterior setting ? Also, I'm using the A6400 Kit lens :(
Total newbie to shooting video on a mirrorless camera so please excuse my ignorance. Currently have a Sony A6400 and wanting to shoot family stuff (ie not professional stuff like weddings). I find it hard to see the screen when shooting video so I was thinking of getting something like a Andycine monitor. So if we have our camera set to S-Log, do we use a lut (??) on the monitor, or do we view the flat image as we shoot? If so, what do you recommend for general "recording memories" type of videos (family excursions, holidays etc) Thanks in advance.
I have a dude with that, I've an a6400 and it has log2 and log3 profile, but my question is, when you set the profile, it is setting up for the pictures too, so, the difference between the profiles in photography is like in video? I can improve the HDR if I will take my pics in log2 for the post later?
Hey there i have a question, so i have a Sony A6400 and i used your settings for the a7. Now i know the full frame of ur camera and bit may be a tad bit better then my limited apc-s but my question for the settings in the color phase and wanted to know something. With these exact same settings you provide i noticed i have a red tint to my footage. is that because the R +4 SETTING is set to that? in ur video you have color depth as followed R+4 G+3 B+3 C 0 So on and so fourth....is there a reason the R+4 is set so high? as i said its a red tint or makes alot of my footage have a red accent to it..is that setting the cause of it??? thanks in advance
Hi, friend. Please write down a lesson about how you do grading this Slog2 with your settings, with which loot, which adjustments, this will be very useful information for many. Thank you😉
Awesome thanks! I have a question if you don’t mind. Say I choose gamma "still" and color mode "pro" on my Sony camera. Do I have to convert this profile to rec709 or should I just import it to davinci and start color correcting and a bit of grading? Thanks 😊
LOVE this Ben, I really think it'll demystify a lot of things to newer filmmakers and photographers! Super similar to my LOG settings actually but i have the Colormode on PRO, have you played around with this? I find it gives me more room to push and pull color without tearing and just get a more "natural" saturation in post. Definitely recommend it if you've yet to try!
I think Canon's got a profile called "Faithful" or something similar which is the flattest. I started out on a 750D and after some research that seemed to be what ppl use.
I was wondering what you think about exposure when shooting on s log. I have seen and noticed that people shoot at a different exposure with s log rather standard or a less flat profile like cine4.
Please disable Autofocus... :) Hmmm... The title is understanding you Picture Profiles... After seeing I learned one thing: use slog2 No explanation about: Why not using slog3? What are the settings of picture profiles? What is Knee? Why should I oversaturate my footage, shooting with log gamma curves? (If someone asks himself why... you should do it shooting with 8 bit colors (sony a7 III for instance) and saturate the footage down in post. With standard saturation you will get square jpeg artifacts. Very noticable on skins!) What is black gamma? What gamma and color settings play good together? What is hlg and the difference betwenn hlg1, 2, 3 and why is nobody talking about? Is it useless? I dont think so! Everyone speaks about color grading the slog footage so it looks great. Nobody talks about color space transformation. You dont have to grade nor aply some LUTs. Just go with the future and transform slog2 footage to ST2048 hdr10... Use an HDR10 capable tv like Sony where you can force HDR settings (Manualy switch to hdr10 interpretation) So you can grade the flat footage without applying LUTs and lose tons of information..... Maybe I should do a video on that....

Thank you for making this! As I am just beginning this journey, I had NO understanding of picture profiles… until now.
Maybe basic but I'm new and totally needed this video.
Awesome content as usual! Ben congratulations on 20K. You definitely know your stuff. 👍👍
thanks bro for all your support! big videos coming soon
Nice vid mate. I’m just getting into video. This explains nicely the pros and cons of some picture profiles.
Congratulation for hitting 20k.❤️❤️
Love your style and your presets.
Super glad I found you!!

Subscribed.
Thanks Ben for the explanation.
Good Job!! Quicik question - For your camera settings for this Video...What did you set your Aperture, ISO and Shutter speed at??
Congrats on 20k bro. I made the same mistake on my first videos shooting standard on canon. Then I started C- log, I don’t want anything else.
As a beginner this was very helpful. Thanks
İ really need that kinda video about sony a7 iii , i hope you got more videos about it 👌🏽
Dope video 🔥🔥 how do I convert this picture profile to rec 709 in da Vinci resolve do you have any idea?
By the end of 2021 you'll be at your 100k! Subbed! ✌🏼

How do you light yourself but still wear glasses?! I get so much reflection in mine!
Any lens would you recommend for SLOG-2 settings? I currently own a Sony A7iii with Sigma 24-105mm f4 lens and MC-11 adapter.
Congrats on 20k bro! still a long way to go haha

what do you mean by "standard picture profile"? which profile/profiles are you referring to specifically?
Hi would you also recommend your profile settings for my Sony a7ii for real estate videography?
how to know which log profile is used on a video. Is there anyway to find it without the camera guy ?
You will be unstoppable man . Just do what you r doing . I just love your content and editing skil . Love from india ❤️
Does this apply to photos. I want to learn more about profiles and I’m new to exposing myself to this.
what is the best picture profile to use when shooting a weeding video for both livestream and recording
I really need to start doing this.

What is a good picture profile for the A6400 if I'm filming a driving scene with a camera mount on as car ? And can I use the same setting for the interior and exterior setting ? Also, I'm using the A6400 Kit lens :(
S-log 2 force you to minimum ISO 800 in sony a6500..is it fine to record in higher iso like 800

I am just starting with flatter profiles, I have a6400 and I am thinking about starting with hlg3, as Ive heared it is easier to grade for starters.
i just got my a7rii and was wondering if you shoot stills with these settings or is this just for video? if not what are your settings for stills?
3:00 Where is that location please? Need to add to my bucket list, so beautiful!!!
What is the best PP to shoot on on a Sony FS5II for a web series that will have SFX? I usually shoot on PP2
My Nikon D5500 has both a Flat picture profile and a Neutral picture profile. Which I was lucky to have
Great content! Subbed!
Y mate. Congras fo 20k . I h a Q? witch parametar is ISO. 800 iso is to high for me. TNX!
tbh the standard simple profile looks better than the one you usually use in your vids.
LOL you're clapped

ahah i remember! you called it even before I did aha

Can you make a video on color grading?! Luts?
Dope shot bro🔥
awesome video!

I think Canon's got a profile called "Faithful" or something similar which is the flattest. I started out on a 750D and after some research that seemed to be what ppl use.
Neelabh Raj Checkout “Cinestyle” use it on my Canon eos M100 and 550d.. Try it out
Hey Ben do you sell any luts or presets for video?
How far are you with the video where you edit our photos? Looking foreward to it so hard. Keep up the great work!! Have a nice day.
Ups you mentioned it in the end XD
so are picture profiles only for video?
Is there a Neutral picture profile on the Sony A73
I really like the colors and your edition but why autofocus is hunting so much on video??
I forgot to set my camera to manual focus when I usually film tutorials this day😭😭
I was wondering what you think about exposure when shooting on s log. I have seen and noticed that people shoot at a different exposure with s log rather standard or a less flat profile like cine4.
Super helpful
hi...is there a video dedicated to just photo..some of us have no interest in video ..
Do you use/like HLG-3???
Please disable Autofocus... :)
Hmmm... The title is understanding you Picture Profiles...
After seeing I learned one thing: use slog2
No explanation about:
Why not using slog3?
What are the settings of picture profiles?
What is Knee?
Why should I oversaturate my footage, shooting with log gamma curves? (If someone asks himself why... you should do it shooting with 8 bit colors (sony a7 III for instance) and saturate the footage down in post. With standard saturation you will get square jpeg artifacts. Very noticable on skins!)
What is black gamma?
What gamma and color settings play good together?
What is hlg and the difference betwenn hlg1, 2, 3 and why is nobody talking about? Is it useless? I dont think so!
Everyone speaks about color grading the slog footage so it looks great. Nobody talks about color space transformation. You dont have to grade nor aply some LUTs. Just go with the future and transform slog2 footage to ST2048 hdr10... Use an HDR10 capable tv like Sony where you can force HDR settings (Manualy switch to hdr10 interpretation) So you can grade the flat footage without applying LUTs and lose tons of information.....
