Should you shoot S-LOG 2 or S-LOG 3 on your Sony Camera? In this video, I shoot in both SLOG-2 and S-LOG3 on the Sony A7III to see which will look better! I quickly graded both of these in Colour Finale Pro 2 (Final Cut Pro X) and compared the results!

Disclaimer, I am definitely not a professional colourist and this was very much a learning exercise for me. I have never properly shot SLOG3 before, so I wanted to test it out and see just how difficult it would be to work with. I will definitely be practising more as I know tweaking my settings would get me some pretty nice results!

So... Do you prefer S-LOG 2 or S-LOG 3? 🤔

I am no expert colourist, nor have I got much experience with LOG 3, I just wanted to make a quick comparison to check out the difference working with them both in post production! 🙌🏻🖥

I might be wrong about this, but it was my general understanding that if you used an 8 bit color camera (A7iii for example) it was better to use SLOG2 for various reasons, and if you had a 10 bit color camera (A7S3) SLOG3 was the way to go.

Great video mate, Slog 3 definitely looks better for the skintones!
I shoot slog 3 a lot on the FS5 and always shoot 2 stops over for the best results in post.

The S-LOG3 definitely looked like it had more depth and range. Thanks for the AB test!

I’m attracted to the slog2 example because to me it resembles what I understand to be a bit more of film grain look. Thanks!!

Slog3 is better for bright sunlight. Slog2 whenever you're not

Sony a7siii
10 bit - S-log3
8bit - S-log2

My mistake 4k24fps downscaled to 1080p 24fps 8bit - s-log3, I’ve notice horrible banding & lacks dynamic Range in lowlight club conditions.

My new test will be: Shoot 4k30fps downscale in post 1080p30fps - 8bit - s-log2 for lowlight club edits.

Lets see.

I have Sony a7iii and just have atomos ninja 5.
Maybe to try slog 2 with ninja 5.
I want to know what is your slog 2 settings?
I have see your movie of boxing trainer and very really cool and clean footage!!!?
Have you informations to communicate me about slog 2 ( situations light to use slog 2, best settings best footage and less noise on footage, exposure footage... And another)?

Thanks to you for your next message 😁👍
And settings for my ninja 5 for slog2 ( zebras, waveform).

Genial tu explicacion y comparación, claramente no son nada parecidos.
A lo mejor me puedes resolver una cuestión que me ha paralizado el proyecto que tiene que esta relacionado con este tema: tengo clips grabados con a7ii en slog2 y con a7iv con slog3, y no consigo igualar el color al aplicar el LUT original de Sony a convertir a s709 en premiere. Se puede? Al tener otra tasa de bit no tendré nunca los mismo colores?

Should have explained the history behind both S Logs and the differences in the curve. I think one was created in the 80’s for projectors?

The difference is 8 bit and 10bit a7iii is a 8 bit camera

Crazy, the skin tones look better in the 2, but the grey of the sweatshirt looks noticeably better in 3.

Hi buddy, where do I get the m31 lut from?

You have to shoot in 10 bit to use slog 3. Otherwise you will get banding
