does anyone know if it`s possible to shoot in a log profile and have the display set to rec.709?

If i'm not wrong, i think the Gamma Display Assist is in the a6300 specs list, which may be what you're asking for.

I doubt many use 29.97p as a ''creative'' option but it's VERY VERY important for every other video production than films, all broadcast, TV, shows, episodics, news, documentaries are shot & delivered in 29.97p in a large portion of the world. 30p is pretty damn important for a LOT. 

For creativity? not so much. I only shoot 30p when shooting beauty shots/Streets/Landscapes for conforming to 24p. It's a beautiful effect, not quite slowmotion and not quite realtime. I don't think there are many of me though that do this.

Yes you can shoot in S-Log and get a contrast/saturated LCD?/EVF, but from my experience on the a7sii the feature is useless as it's simply impossible to set desired exposure due to the rec709 limited DR which makes you underexpose to avoid clipping. View in S-log better. But yes the feature exists.

Wow... how come the NX1 can't even do good 3200?

Because Sony's noise reduction is voodoo magic.

They've had a lot more years to refine it than Samsung.

Hi everyone!!

Some reviews are saying that 1080p is bad in this camera, very soft. 

I don´t think that be softer than Canon cameras, right Andrew? 

Right??????? 

[veraguth 11]

Terrible rolling shutter. https://www.cinema5d.com/sony-a6300-vs-sony-a7s-ii-how-good-is-it-really/

Still keeping my order, not encouraged by the RS numbers, but I love the 4k image so far and haven't seen anything too bad yet. IBIS really helps to mitigate RS with the A7rII compared to the A7s. But I'm not sure I want a camera with worse RS than the A7s, the handheld jello is hard to keep in check at times, even with stabilized lenses.

Hmmm...

[Swiss 3]

So that means handheld shots will have that crazy Jello effect ?

What do you guys think about the skin tones ?

Corpse like.

No it depends how you move it. Just hand-holding it steady won't be enough to hurt the image. Throwing the camera around like in a Greengrass movie wouldn't work, but most other stuff would and don't forget you can fix rolling shutter easily in post most of the time, although it does involve a bit of a crop.

OIS on the lens helps too. Plenty of Canon lenses with this via the metabones adapter. Not quite so many nice Sony lenses with OIS.

Fresh from the press...

Looks like 4K 30p crop is more severe than HD 120p - Jordan(camerastore) says it's around 2 relative to FF, which looks about correct from their review above around 14:10 mark. He also says it's about 1 stop worse.

Would like to see the old R II crop mode side by side with it.  Looks usable for average joe purposes at 3200.

The S II doesn't show that kind of ISO 6400 color shift and blocking until three stops later.

[IronFilm 2,803]

A bit worried the jello on the A6300 might rule it out as its use as a crazy gimbal camera

[red 13]

The corpse like comment on the skin tones makes me just want to skip this and keep my D750 and add a D5500/D7200 once funds allow rather than selling my Nikon gear and lenses. The skin tones out of the camera from the D750 are very good.

Not very good.

Like every 8 bit Sony camera the skin tones are great for gritty stuff but useless for beauty/glamour imo. I'll stick to their 10 bit stuff where it's possible to wrestle the skin tones the right way or canon. Shame because this looked like a winner on paper.

interested on the results after grading. Canon and Samsung seem to have the most pleasing skin tones so far.
