Here we demonstrate some of the benefits of a novel parameterization of the Lie groups $\mathrm{Sp}(2,\bbr)\cong\mathrm{SL}(2,\bbr)$. Relying on the properties of the exponential map $\mathfrak{sl}(2,\bbr)\to\mathrm{SL}(2,\bbr)$, we have found a few explicit formulas for the logarithm of the matrices in these groups.\\ Additionally, the explicit analytic description of the ellipse representing their field of values is derived and this allows a direct graphical identification of various types.
