I have a question , what if you have a person ( skin tone obviously ) AND a bright source of light in the same frame like maybe a billboard or some Led light in the back or something. Would you set your zebras to 100% I’m assuming ? Since the light source is brighter ?

@seandewispelaere Жыл бұрын

Excellent question, William. I'm going to pin this one as I think it will help some people and is something that I could have clarified in the video. I'd always prioritize the skin tone in the shot for exposure. The only time I wouldn't do that is if I wanted a silhouette shot or something, but generally, if a person is the subject I'd get their skin tone exposed.

@williamalexanderr Жыл бұрын

@@seandewispelaerethat’s what I meant ! I reversed it by accident always expose for person / skin tones instead of highlights unless you’re going for a silhouette shot or want to preserve highlights for whatever reasoning. But how about if there’s no ( no person ) in the frame and you want to expose for the sunset ? Then that now becomes the subject and you expose for the 100 value ? Since it’s the brightest part of your image ? I’ve shot in slog before just couldn’t get it right I’ve been practicing for a while now trying to dial it in perfectly

@seandewispelaere Жыл бұрын

@@williamalexanderr You got it, I'd expose a sunset to 85-90 as it isn't a pure white, but yea you're getting it. Very curious how this zebra method treats you. It's been a winner for me.

Wow! What a well-paced, clear and exceptionally helpful…really educational…video, Sean! Thank you for all the time, effort and energy you must have put in to this in order to help us all-fans, most of whom you don’t even know. For those of us who may be either photography novices or at the very least, new to the a7 IV (I just bought one!), please consider a tutorial on how best to set up this magnificent machine for photography. That would be well received, I am sure; then you could consider a part two focusing on video. Please think seriously about creating such a photography tutorial because few people have the combination of skills that you do, not to mention your clear and impactful delivery style. Keep up the great work…you are obviously doing something that you were meant to do. Lucky us, eh!. Best regards, Will

I love that you covered this! I’m pretty new to all of this but just throwing it out there that slog and rec709 differs by -10. So if you’re light skinned your zebra target in rec709 could be 70 but in slog it would be 60. :)

@seandewispelaere Жыл бұрын

Thanks, Travis Ah, yes, I think that is exactly why (for the 70 example) it has worked so well for me to use the same exposure values for both log or non-log profiles. It essentially over-exposes the LOG by 10% which, arguably, is enough to leverage the dynamic range. At lease for me, exposing exactly to the values in the chart via zebras has proven to be consistent regardless of log or non-log

First, thank you for this. It is an excellent video. In part because it's short and therefore condensed. So I have a question please: If shooting S log 3, do NOT change exposure comp, right? Leave it at zero and shoot at a native ISO like 800 or 3200. So adjust aperture to get one of those two ISOs, with camera set in M mode, meaning that its auto-ISO. Do I understand you correctly? Because I have been struggling with S log 3 a LOT. VERY mixed results even in great light with exp. comp at .7 or 1. Also the footage all seems kinda soft and I rarely get focus peaking lines this way. Hoping for any kind of clarity on these issues please, and again, excellent and very helpful video!

@@seandewispelaere Ok working through it. Lemme say that using the old method of +.7 or +1 on Esp. comp. dial has given me exceptional results on photos. Really good. But on video, hit and miss at best. So I am working through your method but I think I need a video on how exactly to find the Zebra settings you use and how to map the button that way and how to use it in a kind of practice session so I can get a grip on that without minutes and minutes of frustrating menu searches to get to the settings each and every time I take video. In the field, that isn't a luxury I have to spend a lot of time on settings before I hit record. Again, any help is appreciated and I appreciate the work you have done already. As a long time music teacher, I fully agree that there is a point where you don't get better until you teach, because you need to solve other people's problems before you can understand your subject more deeply.

@@seandewispelaere OK so I watched the long video, and while there is a lot of wisdom in it on a lot of subjects, (as a long time Music teacher I can concur that one doesn't move forward until one teaches as students tend to ask questions we may never have done) but it didn't address my issues I'm afraid. I have found the using S log 3 with a +1 esp. comp my photos are better than ever. I use On1 to grade them. But video is REALLY hit and miss. I need to understand your zebra method and how to rapidly find the controls I need in menus to access the zebras to do as you explain as its still cryptic to me in your videos. I have the A7 IV and will get the A7 V if it ever appears or the A1-2 maybe but for now, just the A7 IV. ANY help appreciated. Do you have a step by step video on HOW to use zebras your way and map them or find them to buttons?

So when using zebras, should we ignore the Manual Meter when it blinks and shows this is way over exposed but zebras don't show is it still fine? That's what's confusing me ATM as I'm just starting out.

Hi question, i shoot on s-log3 and the 2nd base iso is 3200. If i want to use zebras and have to change the iso it wont be at its base anymore which makes the footage grainy again?

Does the Zebra method work in daytime settings as well? That seems like a pretty east method to remember.

Sure thing, I use Audiio (audiio.com/partner?oid=1&affid=931) and used a few different tracks in this edit, but the one in the beginning is: Andriy Mashtalir; BreatheSlow Motion

Hey Sean, I just recently bought the A7IV and had my first shoot with it. I discovered rather quickly that it overheats much faster than the a7siii. Have you found this to be the case too? What recommendations do you suggest? Thank you!

@seandewispelaere Жыл бұрын

a) awesome b) oh no! Do you have the temp setting to "high"? Shooting outside in the heat? What frame rate?

@throwdown515 Жыл бұрын

@@seandewispelaere I was shooting 4K 30fps 8 bit. Mostly short b-roll clips. I just recently learned about changing the setting to “high” so hoping that helps! Coming from the a7siii, I never experienced overheating so it took me by surprise. I hope it doesn’t turn into a full blown issue when shooting 60fps 10 bit. 😅

I'll also add, shooting with the rear screen flipped out makes a HUGE difference.
