Nataw, if you have found a solution to your grain problems I would like some guidance if possible! I recently bought an a6500 with the 18-105mm lens. I am having SERIOUS issues with grain and cant figure out what is causing it. I have been shooting in Cine4 and have issues as soon as i bring my footage into premiere and it only gets worse with color correction, particularly with my 120fps footage. I am following the shutter rule, ISO is low, im shooting in bright sunlight with an expensive tiffen ND filter so exposure and gear quality should not be the issue. Please help if you have any ideas of what could be causing my problems. Thank you!

Hi guys!

After using 6500 for quite awhile now & doing multiple shoots with it.. All I can say that 6500 is poor when you're shooting indoor (without any help of any professional lighting) but works best with natural lighting.. so shooting with 6500 indoor would be a challenge. I ditched using any profile pictures settings and use creative style settings to neutral, and I think it works just fine. Most professional videographers I know in wedding industry mostly uses creative styles too than profile pictures with their sony camera. So try to test your camera with creative style and shoot it both outdoors and indoors. I figure out that 6500 looked more grainy when you shoots indoor with minimal lighting, but works just fine when you shoot outdoors.

Hopefully that might help, and I think you guys should take some more time to get to know your camera better! Good luck ?
