3、exposure.15 Stops in 15 colors.Bravo,Ed.Bravo.EL Zone is as fun and easy to use as your first reading book with Dick and Jane,and of course Spot.Run,Spot,run.Ed Lachman,ASC has come up with an incredibly intuitive,innovative and essential exposure tool.Its called EL Zone System,orjust EL Zone.Think
4、of it as a spotmeter in your viewfinder or monitor.Toggle it on or off.Each stop of exposure is represented by a color.White shows areas of the scene that are over-exposed by 6 or more stops.18%gray is normal-neutral.Black is under-exposed by 6or more stops.You can correlate the rest of the stops an
5、d their corresponding colors by remembering the acronym in a rainbow:ROY G BIV.(Red,orange,yellow,green,blue,indigo and violet).Or,print out the strip above and tape it to your monitor or EVF.User Button 1 was assigned to toggle between clean view and EL Zone overlay.EL Zone is now available on Pana
6、sonic VariCam LT and 35 via firmware updates.On the VariCam LT above,User Button 1 wasassigned to toggle between clean view and EL Zone overlay.You can assign EL Zone to the EVF and a monitor via the camerasSDI-2 output(VF-SDI).EL Zone is supported in V-LOG,V-709,V-Look1 and V-Look2.Ed explains,“I f
7、ound false color and waveform monitors much too general.They are based on IRE values,which track percentagesin voltage,arent consistent with Stop Values on lenses or light meters,and are not the same from one manufacturer to another.“So,I devised a system based on 18%gray,a universal standard for ph
8、otography.Your camera can be your lightmeter.Or use anexternal lightmeter.They will be consistent with each other.You can also use an EL Zone framegrab of a scene to precisely matchexposure and lighting at a later date for pickup shots or dreaded reshoots.”For example,lets say you come back 2 months
9、 later because the director wants an additional wide shot.The medium shot herewas lit by Tinx Chan with a single-source open-face 2K through an 88 unbleached muslin.With EL Zone,when you return,youcan be sure to match Eds monitor to be+3 stops over;Eds face to be+1 and+1/2 stop over toward the light
10、 and-2 on the shadowside.Barry Russo worked with Ed to bring EL Zone to Panasonic VariCam cameras.Additional team members who made this possibleinclude Takahiro Mitsui in Panasonic Planning and Ryohei Yamato in Panasonic Engineering.Ed continued,“I would like the thank Imago and its technical commit
11、tee for their support and encouragement that allmanufacturers embrace this technology to become a standard in the industry.”This ingenious in-camera spotmeter exposure system is a welcome and valuable innovation for cinematographers andphotographers everywhere.See Eds discussion of EL Zone on Vimeo.

21、1 AT 3:47 PMJacek Laskus,ASC,PSC says:Thank you Ed for this truly helpful tool.This is such an improvement on the“False colors”,and ifstandardized through all the camera manufactures will be a awesome tool for the cinematographer.Itgives you immediately the understanding of light-dark balance of you
22、r frame but it is a great referencefor any re-shoots or communication with your gaffer.For me as a cinematographer a fun and useful tool,for me as afaculty of cinematography department at AFI it is a great way to teach reflective reading and over-and under-exposure.REPLYAPRIL 25,2021 AT 8:26 PMDane

26、nd is based on stop values not an IRE scale.It also based on the VariCams V-LOG or V-Looks(baked in)gamma curves.This makes readings accurate with no need for the user to interpolatewhat the values mean.Not only is EL Zone super-easy to use and understand,but having it built into the cameramakes it
27、even simpler and convenient.A final note,there is no cost for the end user,it is part of the free firmwareversion 9 update.APRIL 27,2021 AT 10:13 AMJon Fauer says:Barry,thanks for explaining and also thanks for your efforts in getting Panasonic first to this ELZone party.APRIL 26,2021 AT 2:19 AMPete
28、r Smokler says:I almost always have a difference in what I see on set and what I see in the color bay.I now bring mycamera,and monitors into the bay and and match everything up using a probe and the facility engineer.I wonder if EL profiles could be made for the different cameras that could be used
29、to match monitorsmore easily.Color bars,etc.just dont cut it.With the EL system,at least all of the brightness values would more easilytrack regardless of monitor mismatch.REPLYAPRIL 26,2021 AT 9:50 AMJon Fauer says:Peter,thats an interesting idea.APRIL 26,2021 AT 9:35 AMMr.German says:Could this sy
