You colour grade all the shots in your project in either logarithmic or linear colour space. The colour grading toolsets are dependant on the colour space you select. In Log mode, the toolset is designed for digitized film images originating from a datacine conversion process. In Linear mode, the toolset is designed for images that contain linear data.
If you want to use a logarithmic image in Linear mode, you can linearize it by creating a Log to Lin conversion LUT with the LUT Editor. See Linear Mode: Creating Conversion LUTs.
