Paul’s approach to S‑Cinetone on the FX6 is all about using it as a finished look, not a log replacement.

Here is how it stands out:

  • Dials in exposure for faces first (skin around 60–65 IRE), so tones look rich without heavy grading
  • Uses controlled contrast and soft lighting to let S‑Cinetone shine, instead of trying to “fix” it later
  • Treats it as a fast, reliable workflow for social/content work, reserving log for heavy color grades

What part are you most curious about: exposure, lighting, or color tweaks in post?
