Let me put it very simply. People preach log and flat because of scientific measurement, not because of what they see on a 6-bit consumer monitor. Please look up the research and BBC settings of Alan Roberts, a man who was involved in HD since the 70's and has made this sort of setup and research his life's work. If you can disprove his research then I'm all ears... |

Different curves are for different scene contrast conditions. For example, a curve with a 600% designation (which is not a linear scale, by the way) would be used for a high contrast scene with higher dynamic range than the imager can capture. Thus the curve will digitally gain up the shadows so that you can underexpose and still get proper skin tones without losing that shadow detail. You would use a different curve in a low contrast setting to reduce overall noise. This is exactly what BBC, Allan Roberts, and [insert cinematographer name] will say.

I don't know how the settings work for the 7D and 5D etc, but as far as how this goes in most other cameras that's how the settings work. |

Weddings?
For event videography would you recommend using the neutral 0,0,0,0 setting inside the camera since scene changes can happen quickly - inside darkish tungsten lit sanctuary, to florescent lit hallway, to sunlight outside. Or maybe two settings - one for inside and one for sunshine.
