Some people didn't understand that last video about how to get PERFECT exposure every video and photography shot every time using 3 different methods- grey card ( gray card) color chart, histograms, camera exposure meter and colored paper. These are what I use to get proper exposure for camera lighting in my videos especially when using available light or constant LED lighting while vlogging both indoors and outdoors for vlogs and portrait photography or even product and cooking or food photography without doing any post processing or editing! Forget RAW. Get it right immediately when shooting jpegs.
Technically gray cards are 18% reflectivity on a logarithmic curve, but our eyes and histograms see it as half way (50% from left to right visually), not at 18% or 1/5 from the left. So when I say "50%" I simply mean perceptually on a histogram. I try to explain things that normal people can understand but nerds always get worked up when I do.

So! 1) Take several pictures of the same subject in the same situation with different exposure settings and make a note of what setting you used for each photo. 2) import the photos into your computer and choose the one that looks best. 3) Still continuing to use the same setup, set the exposure the same as it was for the photo that looked best on your computer screen. 4) Go into your zebra settings and adjust the ZEBRA settings so that only the white on the colour card is Zebra'd. This is the ZEBRA setting you will use from now on because that's what will give you the indication of "perfect" exposure for that specific camera. 5) Now when you shoot anywhere else, simply place the colour/grey card on the focal point of the new image your composing with the Zebras on. 6) Adjust your EXPOSURE until the zebra pattern only appears on the white section of the card and your exposure should be set perfectly. All this is done to take the screen on your camera out of the equation assuming your computer monitor is good enough. I'm a novice, did I get that right?

@xonx209 3 месяца назад

After step 2), you cannot continue to use the same setup because the sun has moved and the lighting has changed. I believe one should do this indoor using video light. This way the lighting remains the same after you examine the video in your computer. To demonstrate this outdoor is what's causing the confusion.

I ask the question because I’m setup with 2 monitors (a MacBook Pro and a Dell monitor) and they look very different from each other. Which one is correct and which one will look correct on other people’s monitors and phone? Again, if you see this comment please go easy.

This really made me smile as your animated presentation made it so much fun. I do so enjoy your videos even with 50+ years of still and motion photography behind me. Your perspectives are always interesting even if I don't always agree with them or the style of your finished presentation. I think the gap in "getting it" is that the viewers don't know that you mean to immediately compare the "proper" exposure with the chip chart. For a lot, using outdoor light means running into the house to upload and then running back out before the light changes to set the zebras on the chip and that is not exactly an easy chore.

Thanks, Markus! Complete Zone System calibration in under 5 minutes. Long story: In the film days we would test every new batch of film and calibrate against handheld and in-camera light meters to match gamma at different ISO values (ASA/DIN) under standard and push processing. This process took days and allowed us to match previous batches as well as across multiple cameras in need rooms, photo pools, etc. It was laborious and necessary for high-quality photos on a consistent and simplified basis.

@markhoffman8807 3 месяца назад

Thank you 10x times over for another learning adventure! Sponge Mark here. My learning so far is. White balance setting: Use the camera’s digital focus not analog - subject holding a white paper, zoom in on the paper filling the screen for the setting. For color white balance - to nail the grey: Use a crumbled piece of white paper to get the off shades of grey and white and set the white balance. Which instruction do I do? and do I do the crumbled white paper still using only the digital focus? Setting the camera’s proper exposure - histogram - brightness level: Take a bunch of photos, from to light to - to dark changing the exposure. View the photos on your computer not the view finder of the camera! Find the best looking photo and see how close it is to 50% on the camera’s histogram. Use a flat grey scale card not a glossy card and turn on the camera’s zebra pattern and adjust to desired setting until only the white bar on the grey scale card is blinking. Do not change the exposure setting. Then when your in the field to achieve the proper exposure have the subject hold up the grey scale card, zebras is activated, you then can set the camera’s exposure, your F stop, ISO, or shutter speed until only the white bar on the card is blinking - presto done. In sunlight harmonize darker backgrounds with a diffuser for a perfect light balance. Move the subject in to a darker background and balance out the lighting of the photo so it looks even from the subject to the background. If I’m asked where did you learn how to film. MarkusPix University of Filming. Much love!!

@AABB-px8lc 3 месяца назад

the problem is camera manufacturers make different and very non-linear OETF, usualy claiming in manual as "standard" that differ from real standard like bt.709. Many beginners discover it in hard way, trying to follow some video guru (with other camera ofc) and get very bad result (usualy problems in areas close to dark and very bright modified by manufacturers to pretend their product have "better image" than competitors).

@samwang5831 25 дней назад

In the good old days you would take a light meter and measure the incident light on the subject (or 18% reflectance grey card), the meter would then recommend a f-number which may not necessarily be right for your camera. So you need to take a few shots to determine what the gap is and apply it in the future. With the digital cameras you can make use of the histogram position and zebra setting to do this. Why 18%? Because the experts looked at a large number of photos and decided this average was the best. The exposure meter in your camera should presumably be targeting around this number. Love your work, Markus, please keep going!

@MarkusPix 25 дней назад

True, but again, each camera shows a different histogram for 18% grey, which is why we need to prep one of these two methods first

Thanks for clarification, Markus. Now I think that I understood your method. AIUI, the reference in your method is photographer himself/herself. I don't fully agree with you. Your method probably is not perfect for the log videos. Log brings ability to capture HDR scenes, but to maximize captured dynamic range the reference card should be exposed at certain IRE value. So, even if your method would provide decent out of camera exposure, we would/could lost some dynamic range. IMO your method is perfect if one don't want to post-process his/her images. Now I rewatched introduction of your previous video and you said almost the same thing. In that case camera gets perfect (from the PoV of a photographer and his/her monitor) images. All in all, thanks for a ̶r̶u̶n̶&̶g̶u̶n̶ shoot&post exposure method. Cheers!

If you have a camcorder or camera that does not have the zebra pattern do the white balance by aiming at a surface (which can be a cardboard or passport colour checker that has the grayscale or that foldable square table) of medium gray colour to 18%. On the other hand, if you have a camera with the zebra pattern you can use the passport colour checker on which there is the white colour stripe; alternatively you can use a white sheet or, if you really have nothing, a white wall even if it will not be perfect but better than nothing.
