/p/ Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 I know not many people are shooting with Sony DSLTs but maybe there is someone out there who can help me. I'm trying to find the best creative style options for color grading and getting the most out of the camera. Currently I am shooting on "sunset" as I read on "Michael Merto's" blog that sunset mode creates the smoothest gradients with the least artifacts.. I also have my Contrast at -3 Saturation at 0 and Sharpness at -3, I have turned DRO off and thanks to Michael replying through youtube turned the in camera noise reduction off. Just wondering if anyone else was shooting with some different options or had some different tips. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richg101 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 portrait at -3-3-3 will give widest dynamic range. but using it in low light and high iso will result in a lot of noise so it is often better to dial up the contrast to crush the blacks and save wasting codec space on noise which will need to be sorted out in post anyway. There is debate which is better between sunset or portrait. I'd suggest reading up on both profiles. There is a topic about the rx100 here on eoshd. i suggest you read that because the profiles are the same for your camera and the rx100.

B+W seems to give the nicest image of the lot if you can handle monochrome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
