Best settings for Sony #fx3 #sony #sonyalpha #sonya7iii #filmmaking #video

All good advice except you're missing out by not using Cine EI. It locks the ISO at the best low (800) or the high ISO (12, 800) settings for the absolute best low noise performance. Using any other ISO (that variable ISO allows you to do) will not be as clean. Cine EI uses S-Gamut3.Cine/S-log3, so your files are in the same familiar and flexible LOG format. Load in your preferred LUT and adjust your aperture, ND filter or lights and view the built in or an external monitor with confidence that your recorded files are going to be correctly exposed for what you prefer on the monitor.

great tips .. i just changed the shutter record button. I kept hitting that when i wanted to record video.

In the settings when you have log shooting selected, you can choose to apply a lut like 709, 709(800%) etc etc

Is that just a preview and doesn’t affect the footage coming out? Or does it actually bake it into the image and the final image already has 709 applied to it and isn’t just pure SLOG ?

What makes the difference when shooting with flexible iso vs log shooting off

[ajaysengar]

Do we need to adjust ISO …Aperture and shutter separately after doing this ?

XAVC S-I 4k is good with what? I didn’t got it sorry

s-I 4k is not the best quality whatsoever. It's a codec meant for easily editable footage since it is minimally compressed, resulting in the file size being HUGE. it's good for rain shots, and very fast moving videography.
