Standardizing Exposure with the El Zone System

You often hear “take it three stops down” or “four stops over,” but what does that actually mean?
In this episode of The Inner Circle podcast, Shane Hurlbut, ASC takes a deep dive with Ed Lachman, ASC into the El Zone System and standardizing exposure in the digital age.

Throughout this interview, the two ASC cinematographers discuss the lack of specificity in IRE values, waveform monitors, and false colors. In fact, they’re not consistent from one monitor platform to the next. Lachman explains how the El Zone System changes all that and brings the cinematography world into perfect harmony.
