I've become an avid user of the EL zone system and I don't understand why it's taking so long for camera manufacturers to implement this technology. I have had great success with it over false color in which there is no standard between manufacturers. EL zone understands where the exposure is specifically in the frame. Monitor manufacturers have embraced this and understand how important a tool it can be for creating images for the cinematographer. Why is it taking so long for camera manufacturers to utilize it? There's so many other tools in cameras we don't even use but this is something we've been missing in order to interpret our exposure and using stored information from sets to either come back to, or use a reference for the future. Thank you Ed Lachman ASC and the EL Zone system, i look forward to using it in a Sony, Arri, Red, or Blackmagic cameras sooner than later.
