This is awesome. Thanks Olof!

Yep - if it's good enough for Alister, it's good enough for anybody, really.

Some might also find this Exposure Guide useful which was written for the F5/F55 but talks quite a lot about the crux of slog and exposing techniques for slog along with some caveats of using LUTs for basing your exposure.

It's free and downloadable in PDF www.cinetiny.com/exposeguide

Alister is a star for this, I will be running some tests with his findings.

This is how I've been exposing images on my FS700/A7s and have found great results.

I'm really digging his Filmic2 luts!

Would Alister's findings apply to the FS700 S-Log 2 as well? Is S-Log 2 pretty equally implemented across the board (A7s, FS700, F5)?

I have just spent quite a bit of time messing with the Odyssey and A7s Slog files. And in conjunction with CD, we came to the conclusion that Slog2 is different on all the cameras (A7s FS700 F5 and F55). They display differently on the O7Q. Also bear in mind that there is a huge difference between RAW Slog2 and 8bit.
