Brand New S!H with grain issues in lower light!

Basically:
Don't shoot anything below 10 bit and 4K using V-Log.
1080p uses lineskipping which results in all kinds of artifacts, 8 bit makes it even worse and adds macro blocking as well as banding to the mix.

4k24-60p 10 bit and 6K24-30p 10 bit are safe.

Also make sure to lower noise reduction to -1 and sharpening to lowest (0) as well. Otherwise there will be many motion related artifacts such as ghosting, trailing and smearing.

And don't underexpose. Keep middle gray around 42% IRE (e.g. using spot meter at 0 stops).

For 100-120p 10 bit modes use HLG and convert to Rec709 using my Luts: :D
