slog lut

[Dermot Shane]

I did a film recently shot on F3, i graded from the camera orignal media, and ignored the Slog Lut, it seems to be best suited for getting the images into the off-line system’s comfort zone… and to reduce producer wobblies to a minimum…

The LUTs are avb somewhere on Sony’s site, i have them as well for Iridas tho

cavet is that i didn’t use Resolve for the F3 film i graded, so not sure how the LUTs will play there.

hi
thanx 4 replying, so u didnt use any luts and still got optimum results in the grade? or would it make it easier with a lut?

[Dermot Shane]

Personal pref + how flexiable your choice of software is in dealing with log math… but yea i prefered working with the flat images.. i was working in a DCi2K project and gradeing on a P3 mon…

if you are targeting a HD finish, and have limited time, then maybe gradeing with the LUT makes sense just to get you to a place the producer & DP are Ok with straight off the mark, but not my first choice..

Hi there. Do you have the slog to rec 709 lut that would work with resolve? Would you share it?
Thanks.

here’s the SLog viewing LUT i used in my mon;

Not even sure where i got it from anymore, might have been Sony… and i didn’t use it, it’s Slog to 709, and i was working in P3 anyway

But it is what the off-line folks were using, so i could play the conform for the Dir & DP with the mon in 709, and have it look like what they were used to seeing… then i ignored it and went to work with the flat images and the mon in P3 😉
