💡 Should You Film in LOG?

Shooting in LOG produces a flat image, capturing maximum data in highlights and shadows for color grading flexibility. However, LOG footage can appear lifeless or be difficult to expose correctly. That’s where Gamut BaseLUTs come in — they let you monitor true colors on set and grade faster in post, giving you a perfectly corrected Rec.709 image instantly.

📷 Recommended Canon Settings

• Canon Log = ON
• Color Matrix = Neutral
• Color Space = BT.709 (or Cinema Gamut if available)
• Gamma = Canon Log / Canon Log 3
• HDR-PQ = OFF | Highlight Tone Priority = OFF | Picture Style = OFF

📊 Why Use Gamut Instead of Default Canon LUTs?

Default Canon LUTs tend to flatten highlights and introduce magenta casts in skin tones. In comparison, Gamut’s Canon BaseLUTs deliver:

• Enhanced skin realism with natural warmth and tone depth
• Improved highlight preservation and contrast retention
• More accurate dynamic range representation
• Cleaner overall color balance and exposure consistency

🎥 Works Seamlessly with All Gamut Creative LUTs

Pair these BaseLUTs with any Gamut Creative Collection — such as Adagio, Dolce, Immersion, or Faction — for a flawless color-grading pipeline. Simply apply BaseLUT first to convert your LOG footage, then layer your creative LUT at ~50% intensity for professional, color-accurate results.
