Sorry nitpicking, but I don’t believe they had slog2 on any Sony cameras back in 2005.
Hmm, yeah I think you’re right. For some reason I thought I remember reading about them in a detailed article that was written about the cinematography behind AOTC and ROTS. Must have been different log curves than slog2.
Either way it doesn’t really matter since it’s not like I’m working with the original source files and I’m just converting back the already graded footage.
Part of the reason I convert to slog3 beyond that the films were shot on Sony cameras, is that I myself use Sony cameras in my video projects and am more familiar with color grading in that space.
Also I forgot to mention that I do still plan to do an HDR10 grade for each of the prequels, but I have yet to purchase the proper monitoring equipment for it so that’ll definitely be the last of the color grades to be completed.
