    Best and simplest explanation of logarithmic vs linear I have come across yet. This really helps!

    Impressive communication skills, and more than that crystal clear voice, each and every word is audible. Thanks for the information. I find it very helpful. And keep making video.

    Great video. As I'm getting older, these kinds of vids are very helpful. The general problem is the music. There is a "busy" music track in this video which makes it harder to get the info without getting slightly exhausted. If you 10-40 it's no big deal. The advice would be to put in a non-drum-track instead because the quality is in your knowledge and good teaching skills, not the "fanfiction" of the product which it really don't need at all. All the best :)

    PLEASE NOTE: The video shown as a "Linear Image" at 3:01 is in the Rec.709 color space, it is therefore not fully linear, but has a more linear *like* gamma curve.

    One of the things you learn in Mathematical information theory is that the natural log of a distribution contains the information. Good to see a practical application

    Thank you so much! Loved the video! Very helpful! Just wanted to say, as a kind note of constructive criticism ;), you should be aware of your hands in your videos because I was pretty distracted with how much they were moving throughout the video. Of course, this video is a couple years old by now, so you may not move them as much now. And if that's the case, my apologies for bringing it up. Nonetheless, this was a very informative and well done video! Thanks so much!

    Nice. Good clear explanation of the math basis and a solid demonstration of the practical benefits with the shadow detail. I like videos like this that demystify it a bit so we can decide if using log gammas solves a problem we actually have. : )

    Good video.
    Although at 3:01 the left picture isn't linear, it's a rec709 or srgb encoding.
    Linear viewed on a screen looks extremely dark, except for the highlights

    • @Channel8eight
      @Channel8eight  7 років тому +3

      That is a good point and maybe I should've worded that differently, what I meant was; a more linear *like* gamma curve. Thanks for that!

    what if you turn down some setting in a color profile ? like in natural or standard? what is the difference im guessing a log profile has more info ?

  • @DeepakSharma-pq6zx
    @DeepakSharma-pq6zx 6 років тому

    At 04:38 minutes, you say even if the camera doesn't supports Log profile, we can create a flat image by desaturating the image and lowering the contrast, and these attributes can be recovered in post production. How do we recover these attributes in post?

    • @Channel8eight
      @Channel8eight  6 років тому

      The easiest way to think of a simple color grade for flat footage is as follows.
      Think about what we have gotten rid of from the image to flatten it, we're talking contrast, saturation, sharpening.
      All you need to do is in a sense reapply those image characteristics in your editing software and you should come out with a pretty decent color correction base grade.

    the new camera 2 API in phones also support log profile video recording in most mid end high and phones. I tried it on my phone and it shows 4 options low Medium, strong and extra strong. I tried all and extra strong is what I think I should record in, but the ISO is very high so it is difficult to use the log profile in low light conditions. What's your opinion on log profile recording in phones? Apps like filmic pro, lumio cam, open camera have it.

      I am not entirely sure what has happened to kit. I've checked with other creators and it seems like they have shut down their website. I believe this was shot on a Lumix LX-100.
