CAMERA SETTINGS FOR THIS TEST:
A7SIII with SEL24F28G lens + NV adapter
4k/24fps SLOG-3 with rec709 LUT
12.8K ISO (NOTE: This higher ISO is the dual native on SLOG-3 on A7SIII, so we can get the least amount of camera noise with the best video and use a smaller aperture so the clarity from the camera lens is less impacted by the camera's aperture)
F5.6, 1/50 Shutter, 5800K White Balance (we found this to be decently true to colour on most NVGs)
