gamma conversion

[Dwaine Maggart]

I’m not sure exactly what you are looking to do. Resolve has extensive gamma control ability. It’s a color corrector. 🙂

You have manual gamma controls for RGBY and Master. You can create any sort of custom gamma curve and apply. You have input, output and monitoring LUT capabilities.

If you are looking for a switch labeled “Convert Gamma from 2.2 to 2.7”, it doesn’t have that.

-5 gamma ?

Well -.5:/

OK, let’s make an hypothesis: I’m grading a feature for DCI, and at this time I don’t want to use a LUT for this target (that has a gamma 2.6..not 2.7 sorry), because maybe I will deliver it for television, too ( so 2.2 gamma). I decide to grade with the normal workflow and at the end of the render I want to convert my dpx with 2.2 gamma into dpx with 2.6 gamma. In this way I can have both dpx for television and DCI, too, right? How can I do this?
I know we have to deliver a 2.6 files sequence for DCI. is it correct?
What workflow should be in this case?
Hoping this is more clear..

thanks

You should check with whoever is making your DCP. Typically, I think that they will change the gamma when they convert to XYZ color space.
