Sony a6700 Setup Tutorial: The Best Cinematic Video Settings

ty sir!! a lot of knowledge :D

Embed lut option does not burnin the lut into video: it stays slog3, it is just allow catalyst browse to know whic lut you use in camera to see the footage in camera so you could easily applied same lut in post if desired, nothing else

Great video

What sd card are you using? Do I have to buy a v90 or is v30 enough??

Thank you for sharing!

sir i have last question sorry for every time disturbing you..
this is my last question
A6000 vs a6100
which one  better in videography

does a6700 low light really worse compared to a7iv? i want everything to be MUCH better then my phone which is f1.7.... but most apsc lenses will 1.5x so its all 3+ f stop if im using a zoom lens :(

Thank you. You're doing God's work.

Waiting for upcoming video abou A6700

Your video appears to have great information. However, I gave listen because your speech patterns were far to fast to follow.

Hello! I have a question, when I switch camera mode to one of three fast modes, I can't change shutter or aperture, any idea how to change this?

Does some know what is the upper and lower base iso for s-cinetone on the A6700? Thanks

This is the most perfect review of the a6700 by far! Thank you mate

Going through it like a drill Sergeant but man, good stuff. Really like your style. I picked up a lot of good info. Especially the way you set up your function menu. I'm going to give that a try for sure!

That anti-flicker FPS tip was veryh helpful! Thanks!

Added LUTs and setup the 6700 just like you said. When I set a user lut (709) the screen/EVF doesnt change. Just shows slog3 image no matter what LUT I choose. Also, the phone wont let me import all LUTs....'file can not be loaded' 😟

Hard to believe only 18K subs, thanks for some great info.
Do you know which has less low light HLG grain at F1/4, 4k60fps 2500iso or 4K 24fps 800iso?

Thanks

How can I enable the 24/60/120 option for XAVC HS 4K?

Please help. First I think your presentation is excellent. I do need your assistance. I followed the link to get the conversion LUT and I've been on that page several times. For the life of me I can't find a place to download a conversion LUT for the a6700. Can you point out where it is on that page? Thanks. Happy Holidays.

If you could have 1 lens to pair with the a6700 for cinematic videos. What would that be? Thank

after using auto framing my camera just makes weird noise like the mirror is taking a shot when turning on the camera, anyone knows?

Hey Sean! Great video! Any recommendations on an SD card that doesn't break the bank for the a6700? We mainly will be using it for music videos and green screen work at 4k 60fps (we do a lot of slow motion). Thank you!

Outstanding video!! Appreciate your time and expertise!!

As I understand HS main benefit is smaller file sizes compared to S BUT you recommend using the highest file size so it end up being the same size as S but with higher hw requirements to handle that kind of files, why?

Very helpful! Thank you for taking the time to make this!

I wonder why you dont have listed in picture profile menu P7,P8,P9? I dont have those in my a6700 either

Really glad i paid a university the equivalent of 3 cinema cameras with a lens kit for the same education

Hey Sean one other ? We purchased the Sony a6700 finally with the 16-50mm lens and will be doing green screen work with it. Wanted to ask you what color profile you recommend? We have it set at cineform right now. We have our aperture at 4.5, shutter at 1/125 iso at 800 - Let us know if you can or any recommendations for green screening, thank you Sean!

Hmm u didn't show the differnt codecs during the stupid audio commercial...really wierd bro..

Currently using the zv e10. Thinking of changing to this as an upgrade. All my lanses are apsc, makes more sense right now than going with full frame. Great review. thank you

Iam using A6700. But where is AF transition speed. It not showing there....anyone knows

For reference, XAVC S-I only really matters if there is fast motion in your scene. Instead of interpolating in the codec between frames, S-I compresses each frame independently. It's also easier to work with in editing later as you can key off any frame without worrying about interpolation. The primary downside to using it is files at 240M 4:2:2 10-bit are 250% bigger than at 100M 4:2:2 10-bit and require a V90 SD card which are quite a bit more expensive than V60 which support 100M just fine.

I have an A6700, but i don’t see the 24fps as frame rate for any codec. Just 25, 50, and others… not sure why not 24

So awesome. Now I just have to practice practice practice until I get all of this burned into muscle memory. Thanks!

MAAAAAN I so happy I found your video Oh so very help.....I've now subbed

вы очень быстро говорите и непонятно какой пункт ставите

The expand spot can be set to move mode by pressing the wheel button so you can toggle between move/set with it

When in Dec 2017 I bought the a6300, I was completely new to Mirrorless digital cameras and i had to search for a tutorial video that would explain as much as possible all the video set up. After watching many i found Maarteen Heilbron "Best video setting for the Sony a6300" . I didn't just watch the video I studied it. And than for months and year to come i would go back and refresh my memory anytime i need it. When i upgraded to the a6400 (I kept the 6300 ) changes were not manies i didnt need one vidro in particular. But now find myself back to the same position as 7 years ago.
Although i am more familiar with video recording and Sony cameras, the a6700 is a big upgrade and has a lot of new features and changes in the menu. And among all the videos i watched, I think yours it will be the one i will study and practice and get back anytime I will not remember something.
Ps But I have to slow down the speed at 0.75 😅...
It's a great video for me to learn. Thank you.

this review was just perfect

Thanks!

The best video for newbies like me

I appreciate the comprehensive and detailed presentation you provided.

Rec w shutter button is the best thing I’ve got to know. Thank you

When opening the SD card on my Mac, I do not see an auto generated folder called “PRO”, is there a setting on my camera I’m missing to enable that folder to appear so I can place the LUT file into? Tried making my own but didn’t seem to work when pulling up the imports on camera. Thanks!

are u hyperactive ?

This camera is giving me fits. Good stuff I need to learn it
