Hidden Flat Profile Found in Panasonic Lumix G85!!!

[@fredr.]

I just tried it. Dropped a clip in FCPX, applied the auto "Balance Color" and tried a bunch of LUT, and wow: Usually with Cine-D/Cine-V/Natural the image is falling apart with the LUTs set to 100%. But no with this filter. There is definitely something there.

[@thatszeno5089]

That is great!! Thanks for this! I haven’t had anyone really try it in any other program yet. Please let me know when you upload a video or two, I’d love to see!

FYI @@thatszeno5089 I did a quick comparison of the size files. 11 sec. Natural all set to 0. 4k 24P: ISO 200 + WB auto : 122,3 MB 11 sec. Cine D all set to 0. 4k 24P: ISO 200 + WB auto: 122,4 MB 11 sec. Fantasy Filter. 4k 24P: ISO 200 :123,5 MB So the fantasy filter seems to have the same amount of data.

@@fredr. that’s good to know! I just love the overall look I get with the fantasy filter over Cine-D and the other profiles. For whatever reason the colors just look better to me for darker skin and it just grades better overall, especially if you want to add luts or any other heavier grading. My only gripes with it is it uses auto WB and higher ISOs will get you a ton of artifacts. But If I could manually set the WB I would be in heaven!

[@oscarcruz5353]

Wow. Thank you so much for such an inside. I did try it on my Lumix G7 and I love the results

[@thatszeno5089]

Wow!!! Great!! - I didn't know if it would work on the G7. Thanks for confirming this!

This fantasy profile you discover is fire brother Man! I just pick up the gx85 with a Speedbuster and I'm very surprised with your settings! I just wanted to try street photography! I'm a film maker.. i use black magic cameras complete rigout! But this setup is small and capable! Thank you very much!

[@thatszeno5089]

Man! That’s great! You’re so welcome, glad I could help!!

[@LilianCrawley-l6k]

thank you!! what's your color grading procedure?

[@thatszeno5089]

@@LilianCrawley-l6k You’re so welcome! Please check out my videos to learn all about it!

[@georgescanvas]

Thanks for the tip ! I will try it out ! I have a g85 and never bothered to look at the scene modes !

[@thatszeno5089]

I was shocked that nobody had bothered to look at those modes. Let me know how it works for you.

[@NolanGunn]

So interesting! I'll have to give this a try.

[@thatszeno5089]

Yes!! Please let me know what you think!!

Have you tried CineD or Natural profiles with the custom magenta hue daylight white balance? How do you think it fairs on skin compared to Zlog?

[@thatszeno5089]

Hey! I’ve tried most of them and for me I like to be able to customize and edit colors. The baked in profiles don’t allow too much wiggle room for editing. They all are great out of camera though.

How can you manual the iso and shutter with this mode?

[@thatszeno5089]

By pressing ISO to adjust ISO and turning the shutter dial to adjust the shutter. You would need to make sure your camera is in manual mode (the camera video camera that has the M next to it.) Is this what you mean?

[@damianvilloutafilms4396]

Do You have a lut?

[@thatszeno5089]

I’m working on my luts now. I have a ton of power grades / stills that all represent the many temperatures of the auto WB That the filter has. These are what I will be saving as luts. Thats the major downside to this camera filter. is that the filter uses auto WB. Because of this I can’t use let’s say one lut for the daylight setting or another for shade etc. i have to use a variety of them for the many kelvin temperatures it may interpret as daylight etc. this also changes if you use any other setting as well, such as 1080 vs 4K. I am only shooting 4K and all my luts will be for this as well. So this is why I will be giving a ton of what I use for $24.99 because it will be a lot. There is no go to lut or powergrade that I use when I grade. I have to go through my daylight grades etc.. until I find one that is either perfect or close to perfect. I then tweak it to my liking. So these luts will be well worth the wait and make coloring your footage a lot easier.

thnks i Wanna tried now

[@thatszeno5089]

Yes! You definitely should!

[@visualizerdbcn9884]

I was tried is good ,but for the correction color now I think that is better have 10 bits .I have 8bits and I lost information whit this profile. ☹

[@thatszeno5089]

@@visualizerdbcn9884 yes! 10 Bit is much better. I have the G9 as well and the tones overall are much smoother. The issue I have is the film look itself. It just looks “different”. Better but more digital I guess you could say. The G85 has a much more old school movie look to me which I love. As long as I shoot at ISO 200 only and work in even light I have no real problems. But you still are correct - 10 but will look much smoother and handle color corrections better.

Thnx!

[@trioktavio5043]

how about g7?

[@thatszeno5089]

Yes this will work on the G7 as well as many other older Lumix Cameras that have this feature such as the FZ300.
