ddire14 Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Hi, I'm looking at buying a few 4X4 ND filters for shooting in SLOG-2 with the A7S. Just wondering what peoples experiences were shooting in slog in bright sunny conditions, and what filters would you recommend buying for these conditions. Looking at these Skier ones I will probably buy 2; http://www.hdvideoshop.com/en/307-mattebox-filters Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregormannschaft Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Shot my first SLOG2 footage last weekend in bright conditions, and am by no means an expert. I used a Genus Variable ND, this one http://www.amazon.de/Eclipse-variabler-Neutral-Camcorder-Genustech/dp/B00BHD5PYK/ref=sr_1_sc_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1412946686&sr=8-2-spell&keywords=genus+varaible+nd, and I had to put it just below max for it to work. But it did. Here's the footage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it did. Here's the footage Looks pretty good, I would definitely look at the "Detail" setting though. Footage looks overly sharpened and from my experience knocking it down a couple of notches looks much better/natural Peace ** Just read your settings that you did indeed lower the "detail" level. Maybe it was the lens you used? What lens did you use for this project?? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
