[Avid-L2] Re: Avid's Canon LogC LUT seems blown out?

 

As was already stated, the cameras have built in set-ups to record log, but display Rec 709. All this video village stuff is often a big dog & pony show.


When you take about EI, it's not the same as setting iris exposure. It's basically what you rate the sensitivity at, just like rating film sensitivity. Arri Alexas are set up for 800. Early RED Ones were best in the 250-320 range. Obviously that's gotten better with newer cameras, but it affects how well you see in the shadows and how much noise you get in the recording or via color correction.

LUTs tend to be a bit of a crapshoot. For example, I have yet to run across a Sony LUT that seems to look good with the new FS7 shooting in Slog2 or Slog3. If you use LUTs with that camera, the ARRI Log-C-to-REC709 LUTs give you a better starting point than anything actually design for Sony's variant. Go figure.
