Fantastic video mate. Great production. I’ve been shooting in 8k raw but using the cine setting and not clog3. I thought raw was raw and it wouldn’t matter. I shot stuff last night in raw and found that shadows to be terribly noisy, with flickering even.
@cinechimp

RAW is noisier because there is no NR applied in camera. This is so you can apply and control the "look" as much as possible. To avoid noise either add fill into your shadows and pull them down later or NR in post. I find the R5 has very little noise. You can also shoot 8k then put that in to 1080 or 4k timeline which effectively reduces noise for you. The flickering though, maybe speak to canon. That doesnt sound right.

Hi Sam, these are fantastic questions. If I remember correctly the colour checker classic still has a grey chip. I trust the camera manufactures metering system over Atomos false color system every day of the week. There are many reasons for and to many to write here. Once you get your head around how to understand the metering system in the R6 and R6 - it will become abundantly clear how off the metering system is in the Ninja line of monitors. The only benefit the V offers is Prores/RAW externally. Oh and no overheating ... I record everything in camera and am selling my Ninja V, which is why I have never reviewed the product separately on my channel. The BMD Video assist is a much better product with less quirks with an easier more understandable workflow for beginners. Have you looked at that?

Great tips and I really like the way you explain things. It looks like the 1.3.1 upgrade fixed the view assist for clog3, which is great. Rookie question for you or other clog nerds here (term of endearment): When filming in clog3, I understand that 800 "should" be the base ISO. Is the goal to keep it at 800 as much as possible (at least at 800) or is it ok to sometimes go higher in a pinch?
@cinechimp
3 жыл бұрын
Hey there, this is actually a really good question. because its multilayered. In brief: The base in CLOG 3 is 800 ISO. But it depends on what you're filming as well. Like a night scene. Or how fast the lens is. And more importantly whether you are in RAW or a compressed recording format. All log formats are easier to grade down than lift in post. So if you are in a pinch and need to push the ISO. Add as much fill light into the shadows as you can to reduce vertical banding, artefacts ands digital noise.

I wish I understood why you're setting your zebras to 40 and not bumping them up higher.

@cinechimp
3 жыл бұрын
Hey Timothy, a 18% grey card is 38% on the zebra scale. As the camera only moves in 5% increments you cant set it exactly at 38%. So 40 is slightly over. The 40% is to understand exactly where your skin tones are in the CLOG3 non linear exposure curve. Its also important as when you change your ISO the mapped curve for CLOG changes drastically. So if your just exposing to the right, you could end up with your midtones bucketed in with your highlights. Which wouldnt be good in post. But if set at 40% first, then you know where that extra stop is to over expose and what it will affect. Hope this helps.

Thanks a lot for this video! I recently got an R5 and have been shooting quite a bit at night in RAW, and the results have been fantastic. However when shooting in very similar light at night (street scenes mainly) in 4K with Clog 3 I have noticed way more noise than with the older Clog on identical scenes with exactly the same exposure. Would love to hear your thoughts on this. Thanks!
@cinechimp
3 жыл бұрын
Hey Cedric, thats because the base black level is being lifted, thus you will see more perceived noise. The reality is though, when graded back down, it should clean up. RAW is also inherently noisier than compressed formats as "no noise reduction is applied". So the more you stretch the RAW the more noise will appear when sufficient light is not filling the "capture buckets" on the sensor. Hope this helps.
@vaskoobscura_
2 жыл бұрын
I found that you really need to increase the amount of light in your setup or really push the iso higher than you would want to in order to get a proper exposure with Clog 3. So you get better dynamic range but you sacrifice noise. Am I doing it wrong or is that how it's supposed to be? (I'm also using an R5)
@cinechimp
2 жыл бұрын
Thats the same with all log formats as you are reducing contrast. Noise hides in the shadows. So on non log formats (most have NR on without you knowing) the noise gets squashed into the blacks, making appear like its not there, but it is and when you push it you'll see it.

But then i need to shoot in 24frames - which color space should i use? BT.709? BT.2020? Cinema Gamut? - should i legalize the footage on the Ninja? - is ProRes good? I know its many questions?

If recording to an external monitor you should be using CLOG 3 BT2020 24P. The atomos setting should match this your camera output. In fact it should be auto detecting what the camera is sending out. I leave legalize off. I would change your output to 4k HQ I think the 24p question s better answered by, why do you want to record everything in 60P? Prores is awesome, it is what most feature films are shot in on the Alexa, so dont be afraid of it. Prores raw is even better - its a shame its not usable in resolve

The view assist is pretty accurate and I rely on it a lot when shooting in fast paced environments. The key with Clog (any flavour) is not to underexpose it. If you stick to exposing to the right and only clip your highlights when you have too, you should be ok. Its safe to say that all CMOS sensors are perform best with more light that less when setting exposure.

Complicated question to answer as there are so many monitors out there that all process the image pathway differently. I try not to change monitors to often. Once I find one that translates well from set to post, i use it until it dies. Then upgrade. What I would say is this, as long as your system works for you and you are getting the results you are after, it doesnt matter what anyone else is doing. There is no "correct way" to expose anything unless you are doing a technical assessment. This is so you understand your camera / monitoring solution. So once you get on set you can apply and translate this into what you want the show to look like.

Your video is such a great and helpful input for Clog3 newbies! Wondering if the fact that middle grey virtually doesn't change when switching between clog and clog3 also means getting accurate skin tones is much easier with only camera build in zebras + grey card. Am I correct that simply exposing for 18% MG = 35-40 % IRE (Zebras) and then overexposing by 1,5 stops via ND Filter reduction or opening up the aputure would result in good skin tones? Or do you happen to set Zebras to the 55-65 range for skin tones? I understand that locking in 18 % grey is more important tho. Cheers and keep those videos coming!!

Hi Stefan, stoked this video helped you get your head around it. These are all great questions you are asking which means you are on the right path to become an excellent cinematographer. As for me, I run a barrage of tests for each shoot. But once I have it tuned in (lens, ISO, contrast ratios etc) - to the characters skin reflectivity - I will then eye ball it on set for the tone of each scene / film. Technically you don't always have time in every setup to grey card or even chip chart for that matter. All of your questions will be answered by using the cameras over and over and over. Sorry to go all Yoda on you. As for over and under exposure of skin tones, the narrative should be dictating what you're doing.

I think of several of the B-roll shots you had the talents face in front of a sky and still the face looked well exposed.

Hi Martin, it depends on what look I am going for and then what grade I am going to do or have done. Yes the 1080 can be shot in clog3 on the R5 which should be 10bit. Shooting outdoors is always hard. I live in Europe and the sky is always changing. Clouds look pretty, but they suck for continuity of light. So daylight non commercial stuff is eyeballing. Commercial jobs would be metered separately and controlled as much a possible. So with faces outdoors, sometimes it's better to push peoples faces into the highlights if you want to bring it all down together. Because as I said you dont want to be under exposing and lifting a face. None of the shots in this video have fill light added outdoors. Its stretching the DR as far as I could. I also shoot with the R. Its great and in some senses far faster to work with than the R5.

That depends on a lot of things, like what is the tone of the scene. Day, night, interior exterior, day for night etc. What genre is the film? Etc. There is no exact figure as everyones skin is different. Some people have really shiny skin, no matter what you do. Its always best practice to shoot tests of your subjects to figure out what value you are going to rate their skin at for the scenes of a production. And I know in this day and age that PRE on productions is getting reduced, but trust me - even if you have to do this stuff for free, it will put your mind at ease on set. Thats the only way to really know where to set a subjects skin tone. Shooting RAW helps, but not all productions are produced in this manner.

Hey mate, no problems. Absolutely not. It depends on what the scene is. How much dynamic range is required to capture the scene and which ISO will produce the least amount of noise in camera. The way to think of ISO with Clog is that the base ISO is 400 in the R5. Think of that like a film stock, say EI 400. The film stock can only ever really be 400 but can be pushed or pulled. Basically by under or over exposing. Digital cameras do this by gain staging. This is why the images get noisier when the ISO is raised. In saying this you can hit the sweet spot with ISO gain staging on this camera where you get the most latitude from how the log curve is re-mapping the sensor. Thats at 800 ISO in CLOG3. and is dependant on whether you are shooting RAW or compressed formats. Hope this helps you out mate!

Le mieux est d'avoir un carton gris/blanc dans ton kit camera. Les cameras mirorless n'ont pas d'outils de video monitoring, specialement les cameras Canon. Si tu enclenches tes zebras sur ta camera et suis les recos de ma video, quand les zebras couvrent le carton gris, cela voudra dire que tu auras la bonne exposition "middle-grey". Ajustes en fonction de la carnation du sujet et les autres elements de ta prise de vue, et si tu souhaites sur ou sous exposer

@@michaelathlan Your zebras can be set to "monitor" any exposure level in 5% increments from 0-100. Normally for my skies I set my zebras to 90% with Canon cameras. So once the zebras start to appear, I still have 10% over that for safety. The reason why the histogram is showing you "empty space" on either end of the range is because that is how the LOG curve is remapping the dynamic range. So all of the "normal range exposure" is remapped in a "visually smaller" scale. But in reality you're expanding the DR, not reducing it. The reason why it appears like this is the histogram display is set size on the camera. The scale can not expand because of UI design. So the "representation" of the LOG scale has to shrink inside the fix graph size of the canon interface. Hope this makes sense.

@@greenlightstudios3469 Well you did say the magic words, you cant see the difference on YT. So the real question is for your clients where are they publishing their content? There is a difference. And it's big. And can be bigger because that extra stop in CLOG 3 when shot in RAW can be converted to CLOG 2 very easily. And then you have even more flexibility. If you are doing a lot of stuff with darker interiors and super bright windows, RAW will be more of an advantage than log. However there are huge considerations that come with this, like storage, computer system and additional media costs. I would wait for the R3 to be fully announced as this will most likely be 6k and have no heating issues that some users experience. If your not doing stills and can take a hit in sharpness for more DR I would look at a C70 with a speedbooster. Then shoot CLOG2 and on the DGO sensor. Its about the same price and will most like use the card you already have from the R.

So you can have a really poor DR camera, light a BMD production 4k with a global shutter, but make it look light 14 stops of DR if its handled the right way. This is where everyone gets confused between real DR and perceived DR. MOst people dont share their ratios like I did in this video. I think it they only way to represent the camera fairly. You dont lose that mu DR over the ISO range. What's happening its the sensor is being remapped to prioritise different ranges of bright and dark. So the DR is still their, its just allocated to a different part of the exposure scale.

I have found - with my ninja V anyway thta the scopes are way off and the screen brightness can be really deceptive to your actual exposure. I actually find I need to turn the brightness down on the monitor. And I judge my exposure from the R5 histogram, not the ninja. But thats my unit. Its way off. What I can recommend is that you expose to the right, avoid 100 iso, stick closer to 800 as this is where you get the most DR with the least noise, which grades down the nicest. Obviously this is a pretty generic answer, but for most situations, IF (and this is a big if) you cant reduce your contrast ratio by adding fill light into your shadow areas. The smallest amount, with a poly board, mirror, shower curtain will help you get a better density in you digital negative. Then when you grade down, you will see the noise disappear. Shooting a higher resolution and then downsampling will also reduce visible noise. Try these methods out and let me know how you go....

I don’t think it is possible that I could be more confused and frustrated. I have watched one video after another and all of you say to use varying methods. Yet, the footage all of you show is 297,000% better than my footage. I’m so lost. Another mate says, “set the zebra lines to 70%”. You say 40%. Aside from the zebra lines, I was assuming that Canon knew what it was doing when set auto ISO, but the waveform is horribly to the left, underexposed. Wouldn’t one think that the camera would adjust for C-log and update the exposure to be more towards the middle? I just shot all my footage at an aquarium in auto ISO and the noise is horrendous. Of course it is, because it’s horribly underexposed. So, I watched a few more videos and ran some more tests. I did set my zebras to 70% and the waveform was quite centered. I then imported and applied the Canon Log3 CST and it was almost perfect. I reduced gamma to -.04 and it looked spot on. I’ll try your 40% suggestion and see where I end up, but I’m quite sure it’ll be underexposed and noisy. My hope is the color grade AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE. I’ve seen a zillion videos from pros that have very complicated node trees. (1) I just don’t have that kind of time and (2) It sure seems to me that they are doing way to much work for each clip. But, I’m not a colorist nor a professional videographer.

HI Doug, you raise some great points, so thank you for your statements and questions. I am wondering are you exclusively setting the zebras for highlights or skin tones? You can set up two in the camera. You should use one around 90% for highlights and one at 40% for skin tones. 40% as this is where the camera sees middle grey for skin tones in controlled lighting scenarios. If you replicate my test (which I highly recommend) you will understand how the camera is "seeing". Normally you would expose the skin .5 to 2 stops over and bring it down in post. When you are shooting more doco style like at the aquarium, where you do NOT have control over your lighting ratios (Fill to key) you should be exposing to the right and never use auto ISO. This way you can pull down the exposure in post and set your skin / talent exposure correctly without clipping your highlights. Each environment is different as are peoples skin tones, so all of these tutorials are guide that you can build off once you understand the variables on the day.

@@cinechimp In reality I have never used zebra lines. I was a wedding photographer for many years and had tons of lighting in gear used for those purposes in the context of flash. But, I moved to France and retired and I am now making videos of my adventures here in Europe. In other words, my exploration of shooting video and shooting in log have just begun. It was my assumption, and a wrong one at that, that shooting in log and on auto would be just fine. I just assumed that Canon would auto adjust for the log setting. Instead, I am finding that I actually have to bother to do work and getting the exposures to be correct. As a wedding photographer, I shot all manual and knew what I was doing. Therefore, my experience with shooting with zebra lines is just one day, like two days ago. I typically would adjust exposure strictly by the histogram. And frankly, I don’t think it is very different from that now when shooting with video. I’m just an amazingly stupid person. It was just my thought that a $3000 camera set on auto mode would actually adjust properly. So, back to manual I go and I will try using the zebra lines set at 40% and see how I feel. I have also set one of the buttons to turn it on and off which will make it convenient. If I can get back to you with my analysis once I do that, if you want to see how that is going. I trust your expertise and will give it a go.
