Linear Mode: Creating Conversion LUTs
 
 
 

Different film stocks produce various results. Shoots can also occur under many conditions, creating colour variations in the image. To create continuity between shots, you can apply unique Log to Lin conversion LUTs to different shots. Use the LUT Editor to create Log to Lin conversion LUTs. Conversion LUTs are used to gamma correct the shot and convert logarithmic data to linear data.

To create a Log to Lin conversion LUT, the following steps are usually involved:

  1. Set up the Player to monitor the shot you are converting and a reference image.
  2. Use the Pixel Analyser to sample corresponding colours from the original and converted shot, as well as a reference image.
  3. Modify the default conversion settings using the LUT Editor.
