You mentioned setting the zebras at 45 with the lut off and 41 with the lut on. Does this involve placing the gray card where the person's face would be on the camera? Would this properly expose skin tones in S-log3? I have heard elsewhere that sixty or sixty-five is the proper zebra level for skin tones on S-log3. Thanks!

Josh, I found your channel about 6 months ago and have been devouring your content. Both Camara and Farming (Love what you are doing for that community). I was about to buy an FX30 as I'm getting into filming but I found a used FX3 for a great price. I plan of shooting Moto travel and action sports so I invested the extra $. I'm wondering why you say to start one should shoot in Flexible ISO verses Cine EI? I will experiment with both. Thanks again from the West Coast of Canada

Hi Josh and thank you for this, and other videos, about FX30. I'm basically a drone pilot, trying to learn something new - and you are very helpful. I wanted to ask you about exposure and zebra settings. There seems to be some kind of konsensus "out there" that, when filming people in an uncontrolled environment, one can aim for the best skin tone exposure, and that the value would be around 70 % in S-LOG3 . I don't know if you agree to that. But if you do I guess there is a differens if you use LUT or not, just like with the gray. Since I always use the built in 709, what value should I use for skin tone?

Hi Josh. I just bought the fx30 and I'm following your set up. I'm left a bit confused though. I want to use XVAC HS 4K, but I'm in the PAL region and there are only two frame rate options. 50p and 100p. Oh no! So no 25p. So now I don't know what to do. Should I not use XVAC HS and instead go for XVAC S 4K? Or should I shoot in 50p (Not sure I like that though)? Or should I use the NTSC region setting and get XVAC HS 4K in 24p. The last option seems easy enough, but then again I'll probably run into trouble when there is artificial light. I don't know what is the best way forward. Please help :-)

At about 37 seconds in this video you talk about setting auto power off to high to keep cam from overheating. On page 397 of my sony FX30 manual it states “Sets the temperature of the camera at which the camera turns off automatically during shooting. When it is set to [High], you can continue shooting even when the temperature of the camera gets hotter than normal.” Does that imply the camera will continue shooting even though its getting hotter? I wonder what the shutoff temp difference is between the two settings.
@Josh_Sattin

Pretty much yes. If you set the temp setting to high, the camera will allow itself to run hotter before shutting down, giving you longer run times.

Quick update if anyone's confused about the dependency between this video's frame rate options and those using firmware 2.0+. In this video the options are shown as 24, 60, and 120p. In firmware 2.0 they now show as 23.98, 59.94, an 119.88. Turns out this is (probably) to better align with that's actually being captured. For example my GoPro's 24p option is actually capturing 23.98. This is not to be confused with 2.0's 4K DCI mode feature, which in that mode is a legitimate 24p.
