The very first exposure guide written for the Sony F5/F55 camera started as a long overdue project of his to compile all the articles, forum and blog posts he had written over the years on tips and techniques exposing for Log gamma based video cameras.
Log based gammas is nothing new in the world of ARRI, but since the introduction of more affordable cameras from Canon and Sony like the Canon C100 and Sony F3 the Internet has been flooded with information on working with Log and various opinions about the techniques on using them.
The result was a 37 page guide with over 10,000 words completely geared to breaking everything about exposure down into its simplest and most practical form in ways that make sense.
There is no one way to set exposure for any given scenario, so the guide first helps put into perspective real-world scenarios that exist when working to approach exposure and then delves into various camera options, gamma curves as well as internal and external tools to help you in setting exposure.
Dennis is absolutely certain that everyone will find the guides to be the most practical and easy to follow guide written to date on the subject.
