BEST Sony Picture Profile for Video (Cine 4 vs. S-log)

In this video we take a look at the Sony S-log 3 picture profile. We'll take you through the advantages and disadvantages of using S-log, or any log format, as well as show you comparisons between S-log 3 and other picture profiles. Finally, we'll let you know what our favorite picture profile is to shoot on Sony mirrorless cameras.

Gear I love:

THIS is like the MOST important TUTORIAL / EYE-OPENER that I was looking for!
THIS defines realistic people from wannabe-pros.

I do not need, nor want, to shoot S-Log, just because everyone does it.
I want to EXTRACT what is the BEST from my camera and footage and
not complicate myself needlessly.

THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!

I'M A NEW PHOTOGRAPHER, AND I AM SO GLAD I CAME ACROSS THIS VIDEO.
I LIKE THE WAY YOU THINK.
THANK YOU AND I'LL BE LOOKING FORWARD TO YOUR OTHER VIDEOS!

Fully agree with what you said at the end. The less distractions the better. Keep up the great content!

[johnbrunedigital]

Thanks for this video. As a person who doesn't shoot in any of these formats and remains in Full HD this was very enlightening.

[aperezvoyages]

Very helpful man. Took a lot from this

A bottle of hand sanitizer back in Nov '19... respect

I wanted to understand the difference between the two and this video was really helpful. Very well explained!

I shoot slog3 all the time, i brought a pack of high quality luts for log3 and it looks amazing, I’ve shot slog for so long that i’ve gotten custom to what my exposer has to look like through zibras and histograms, even on a dim screen, In all reality you can get a log profile to look way better than cine4,

Been toying with this I agree thanks for the video cause now I’m convinced

[ADTabassum]

Bundle of thanks sir... you got me out of a big trouble.. i bought a7sii for online lectures on whiteboard... everybody on youtube advised to record on
s-log2, it was hilarious to see the footage in s-log, because its dull and worst.... i was unable to edit it properly but now i am hopeful.

Thanks a lot again

[tompainter]

Thanks this was useful when trying to form opinions of my own

[kenphused]

Great info! TIL the minimum ISO for my A6400 in SLOG is 500. Thanks.

[RidgeMallery]

Can you actually do a tutorial on how you set up your cine4? Meaning all the black settings the black levels the kn ee all of those things

[harborguitar]

Yes, all this can get overly complicated. Yeah, your video is great. Help me a lot. Thanks.

[willgale]

just picked up this camera today, found this vid super helpful!

[RokDAWG]

Awesome info & definitely an easier way to get quality work done

[djameloveskyFILMS]

Best explanation of Slog ever !!! thanks dude

[AaronMello]

I tried shooting in S-Log for a while when I first got my A7R3. It became a headache as I don't use a monitor and trying to make sure everything was OK via the small LCD was cumbersome. I tend to use Cine4 now, but did have good success with HLG (2, I believe) for a while! Thanks for the video, definitely helpful.

[tyiabee]

I'm so glad I clicked on your thumbnail! I just picked up the sony a6600 and all this talk on slog 2 is giving me a headache.

[mchammer]

So true. My band director used to say don't buy an expensive instrument, just get good, you can do that on a cheap instrument. I've seen video pros who have award winning footage who shoot in PP1. So many more ways to make your footage better.
