INSTALLING VLOG LEEMING LUT ONTO FCP FULL
The internet is full of advice on this subject - how do you tell good from bad? I say experiment to find out what you like. My main target right now is preparing for a vacation at Yellowstone, so that's what I really need help to decide - advice most welcome! This is so difficult, and I'm worried if I form an opinion in one scene it'll probably be invalidated as soon as I change scene. I made some test shots over the weekend but screwed up by not recording which were CIneD versus CineV so that wasn't helpful, and I see no way to check which mode was shot on the camera from looking at the properties of the files - or is there some way to tell?Īnyway, I'm not entirely sure I don't like the LIke709 look instead. I think I understand this correctly that using V-LogL is the only way to get 12-bits of dynamic range, but given I've constrained my target to 8b (because I want 4K/60 internal recording) I have to trade between dynamic range and banding, and that's a tough situation that may make the other modes better.


However, there were also a number of examples - particularly with clouds or bright sunrise/sunset images where the banding was so objectionable as to cancel any value the extra bits of dynamic range was adding. I searched YouTube for a while and found a few examples where they showed V-LogL with the 709LUT versus CIneD, I would say in a number of cases the V-LogL+LUT looked better. I'm curious about the reason why you use CineLike-V rather than say "D" or 709? Would love to hear thoughts and experiences on this option. Also, from an editing perspective, I used Adobe Premiere Pro CS6, not the latest CC, so while I tried Magic Bullet's LUT buddy to help with the V-LogL it doesn't run at real time speed, so I'm worried that V-LogL is unusable from an editing perspective - although I would love to hear otherwise if VLog is even useful at 8bit. I've decided I so much prefer the look of 4K/60fps versus 24 or 30, that that decision is made, and I'm not using an external recorder, so I'm locked into 4K/60/8bit versus 10-bit as a starting point. I'm going to Yellowstone national park later this summer and looking to really understand the difference between these four modes in the Photo Style setting for video - I'm only going to be using the GH5 for video. I've got the V-Log L upgrade, so I'm now having to choose between these four gamma curves for video recording.

I've read the advanced manual for the GH5, page 208 - with the two line description of each (Photo Style), but I'm looking for a little more advice.
