[V-Log L] Settings

Setting [Photo Style] to [V-Log L] enables Log recording. Images finished with rich gradation can be created through post production processing.

[MENU/SET] [] [] [Photo Style] Select [V-Log L]

Post-production processing is enabled by utilizing LUT (Look-Up Table).

You can download LUT data from the following support site:

ISO Sensitivity When [V-Log L] Is Set

The lower limit of available ISO sensitivity is [400], and the upper limit is [25600].

The range of available ISO sensitivities is also different for [LOW] and [HIGH] in [Dual Native ISO Setting].

Reset the exposure if necessary when ISO sensitivity changes.

Exposure When [V-Log L] Is Set

The [V-Log L] curve characteristics comply with “V-Log/V-Gamut REFERENCE MANUAL Rev.1.0”. When set to [V-Log L], the standard exposure when gray with a reflectance ratio of 18% is imaged is IRE 42%.

Reflectance ratio: 18%

Reflectance ratio: 90%

When [Photo Style] is set to [V-Log L]

Reflectance ratio (%) | 0 | 18 | 90
IRE(%) | 7.3 | 42 | 61
Stop | ― | 0.0 | 2.3
10 bit code value | 128 | 433 | 602
12 bit code value | 512 | 1732 | 2408

When luminance is to be displayed by Stop units, this camera calculates IRE 42% to 0 Stop.

Luminance can be checked by Stop units:
