Hello. Thanks for the comment. Cheers!

[@gabrielhunter4268]

Very helpful! But will a tutorial for depth math and lens blur be possible? Thank you so much

[@M1R0_Life_through_a_lens]

Hello. I have a video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gWKWpol-qslgmbc Cheers!

Hello. You're welcome. Cheers!

What's the point in recording in "10 bit", if you just bring it down to Rec.709 with the LUT? Is there any way to keep it in Rec.2020? Edit: TIL 10-bit doesn't mean Rec.2020, the OSMO 4 still only records in Rec.709.

[@M1R0_Life_through_a_lens]

Hello. Just export the video in Rec.2020 (in the color management). The LUT just ads contrast and saturation the "right" way. Think of it as like a filter. Thanks for the comment. Cheers!

[@thedevleon]

@@M1R0_Life_through_a_lens Thanks for the reply! Just to be 100% clear on this, the Osmo 4 is still recording in Rec.709, even in D-LOG M "10-bit" right? All files are labeled as Rec.709 by DaVinci (and in the video metadata). If I manually set it to Rec.2020, the colors definitely don't look right at all... A bit misleading on DJIs side to call it 10-bit, as I would expect that to be Rec.2020 (not just 10-bit Rec.709).

[@M1R0_Life_through_a_lens]

Yes that's correct. D-log M doesn't use D-gamut colourspace. That's what that M stands for. The 10bit allows you to do more kompleks edits because colour banding isn't an issue. So it's better then 8bit is this regard. Why do you want to use Rec.2020? Do you have a HDR TV? Just curious 😉.

[@thedevleon]

@@M1R0_Life_through_a_lens thank you, finally it's clear. There's a lot of conflicting information online, with some people suggesting to set the input colour space to Rec.2020/Rec.2100 HLG, and some "demanding" for DJI to share the LUT to convert to Rec.2020 to recover the "billions of colours lost by converting to Rec.709". But now it's clear that such LUT cannot exist. And yes, I have a HDR monitor and TV, hence why I want to move to Rec.2020, especially after seeing Blue Planet 2 in HDR, I'm hooked :D

[@MstrRo1]

You said in order spice things up with 10 bit in DR, you have to use the studio version and then noted if you use HEVC and 10 bit from the OA4, you can use the free version. Can you clarify this? It seems contradictory. If you have to use the Studio version for 10 bit, then the assumption is you can not use it in the free version.

[@M1R0_Life_through_a_lens]

Hello. I've got a few comments on this topic and some peple said that Davinci shows the 10 bit video if it is HEVC. As I've said in the video I haven't tryed this out because I only have the Studio version. Thanks for the comment. Cheers!

[@MstrRo1]

@@M1R0_Life_through_a_lens I did a little digging and although I have not tested this. If you’re using the free version of DaVinci Resolve 18.6.6 on a PC, consider this approach: Convert your H.265 footage to DNxHR (4K) using FFmpeg. Then, work with the DJI Normal color profile (avoiding D-log M) in 4:2:0, 10-bit. The bit rate for D-log M is guesstimated to be too high for 18.6.6.

@@MstrRo1 Hello. Thanks for sharing. Really appriciate it. Cheers!

[@j.777hemi2]

Ha,, you lost me at importing my video to Davinci. It keeps telling me I have the wrong format.

[@M1R0_Life_through_a_lens]

Do you have the Studio version? Could be that you have a 10bit video and it's not supported in the BETA version of Davinci Resolve. I really haven't tested this out so... Thanks for the comment. Cheers!
