F55/F5 shooting 2 stops over zebra question

Post by waistdeep » September 18th, 2013, 9:05 pm

Hello,
I watched and loved your F55/F5 presentation at CineGear2013. Very informative. I am shooting an upcoming series and had a few questions on your advice of shooting 2 stops over in Raw, native ISO, and setting the EI-ISO to 800 on the F5. You mentioned that you then set your Zebras at 100%, seeing just a tiny amount to get proper exposure for landscapes and better grading.

My question is, with that Raw setting, will using zebras at 70% give you a good exposure for faces? What do you suggest for proper exposure. Thank you for your suggestion.
