Rendering with the Viewing LUT
 
 
 

For linear work, you can render shots to 8-bit BMP files using the currently loaded viewing LUT with the Viewing option. Use this option when you want to render the image displayed in the monitor.

When this option is enabled, the output consists of exactly what you see on the monitor, namely, the image resulting from the applied monitor calibration setting, viewing LUT, and colour space settings applied in the Render Output menu.

When this option is disabled, the currently applied viewing LUT is not taken into account in the output image, and the files are rendered to the file format specified in the Render Output menu rather than to 8-bit BMP files.

For information on monitor calibration, see Calibrating a Monitor. For information on output colour space settings, see Setting Colour Space Options.

NoteYou can also render shots to DPX files with a viewing LUT applied. This is performed in the Render Output menu. See Setting Colour Space Options.

To set rendering with the viewing LUT:

  1. In the Render Local menu, enable Viewing.
