The absolute best explanation on how to set and work the exposure! Thank you for the clarity! FINALLY I get it!

useful s5mII footage.(v log)

Thanks for sharing! Very helpful!!!

Great explanation.

Thanks for sharing Carter.

Amazing - One of the best videos I have seen on VLOG lighting and exposing - it's really helpful. Thank you so much for kindly sharing this.

Thank you, sir!

This was what i needed, Thanks

Another great breakdown. Can't wait to see the behind scenes I learn a lot from your videos.

Man, I love how casual and useful your videos are! Thanks for sharing with us!

Great information! Thanks for sharing.

Great commentary. Looking forward to more.

Great mindset to walk into the space with. with so many other logistics to manage, this is such a simple equation. thank you and cheers!

Great explanation, thanks for it!

Realy helpfull, thanx!

That is a very useful video. Thanks

I like your style! Classy stuff.

Yeah!!! 1,000th subscriber right here… way to go man…. Good stuff…😁

Great!

great video man.

Thanks bro, fantastic video.

Great video and info, and I don’t even own a Panasonic anymore! New sub.

Loved the explanation about how to expose properly .. but is it true that we need to overexpose 1 or 2 stops for vlog?

thanks, this was very useful! regarding keeping the aperture fixed throughout the shoot, I expect there can be exceptions for close-ups where you may want a shallower DOF, vs wide or establishing shots where you want everything in focus what’s your take on this?

Awesome video man.. I am at edge to buy s5m2. Please help me understand the camera better. 🙏

Awesome stuff! If shooting VLOG on S5ii the image is grey.. do you just view that grey image and use the exposure square... or do you use an internal LUT or external monitor with LUT etc, cheers chief :)

Is a variable ND filter a necessity for shooting in vlog? Thinking about buying one

Oo it’s imka!!!

What lens!

6 stops seems like a BIG number. I thought it was around 3. Anyways, i learnt alot from this video. Thank you

Awesome stuff Do you grade entirely manually or use phantom luts?

You can recover +6 Stops o.o wow that is huge, i never expose more than +3 over ^^ maybe have to try this what a great video thank you

Question. But first,…thank you sir. Very helpful. Noob question: Are those spot meter exposure readings in Vlog….are those with the log assist feature turned on? Many thanks.

Best take away [for me] is how you stick with a number of settings add or subtract light from there. May seem like a no-brainer to some, but one of these a-ha things for me.

Well Vlog can’t expose 6.3 stop over. Gerald Undone confirmed what I figured out on my own. You have to set zebras on Vlog at 75% because the highlights clips really easily. I can set my Pocket 4k and 95-100% zebras then used highlight recovery in Resolve to bring a stop of clipped highlights back. I think more latitude maybe available use ProRes Raw or BRAW 12 bit from your LUMIX camera but those 150 megabit per second files aren’t getting 14 stops of dynamic range.

Nice breakdown.....Someone can explain in detail about native iso on S5, I think am lost 😂

Helllo wich computer do you use for vlog 4K. It runs smooth?

Why don't you use the zebra tool? For example 80%.

Cameras models/specs don't create a beautiful image. It's the lighting of a scene. This is a proper tutorial. Listen up regardless of what camera you use.

Many say you supposed to overexpose by 1 or 2 stops in V-Log in order to avoid noise in the shadows, is that so?

Dude your approach is admirable. However suggesting that you'd keep your camera settings locked and finesse your lighting (as you draw squiggles on a static subject onscreen) is misleading. Particularly if the lighting in a scene is not controllable. Contrary to what you say, the big (DP) fish try to light to a preferred stop however if the moment calls for it, they adapt and modify their approach. Period.

Good video - although I might argue that you may need to stop down if you're doing a wide establishing shot if you wanted more stuff in focus for that shot.
