Matching my FS7 with My ARRI - The LUT (Phantom LUTs)

[@codylarosa]

Just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to make these Joel, its been an absolute game changer for me!

[@phantomluts]

My pleasure, I hope you're still enjoying them

[@andrem2976]

This is monumental! Finally someone who mastered what we’ve all been trying to achieve with Sony cameras. HLG and Log users can rejoice because they work great with both!

[@kendalkempsey]

This LUT is so good! It's the magic sauce I've been looking for the FS7, I only wish I'd had it for the last five years. It's brought a new lease of life and might eek out a bit more life from the old girl yet. Thanks Joel, this really is incredible work and very much appreciated!

[@phantomluts]

Thanks for the kind words Kendal and I’m glad it’s giving the old girl an injection of life haha!

[@paulshawbailey]

Great update to the Phantom LUTS with version 10. Well worth it.

[@511films2]

It has never been more joyful on set using these LUTS -- and makes me much more confident on the overall image before editing. Thank you Joel, great work! They look phenomenal!

[@RyanMetcalfePGA]

Just bought the updated LUT packs and I'm stunned! Amazing work and worth every penny. Thank you Joel

[@Fizzeekmedia]

I first came across Joels Cine4 LUTs and it totally changed the fs5 for me. Joel encouraged me to shoot with slog which I wasn't comfortable with and the results were amazing. The FS5 felt like a different camera and I have been shooting slog ever since. I know Joel works hard on tweaking the new Arri luts and every release has been getting even better. I use these LUTs on every job now and I truly wouldn't love my FS5 as much without them. The new G10 version is magic.

[@phantomluts]

Fizzeek Media thanks for the kind words and I’m glad they’re working out for you brother!

[@jolyoncox]

I like your understated demeanour - makes me pay more attention to you. Thanks, I bought the whole LUT pack and keen to try them out on A7iii.

[@TheKobiswissa]

Great LUTS! it gives the FS5 a new life imo. They resolve great contrast and places colors in the right pockets! New go to on set.

[@TreyBratcher]

Looking forward to the Atomos updates on the film LUTs. Appreciate your work man, these are the luts i’ve been looking for a long time now.

[@kevinmcroberts8527]

Recently downloaded, and had the chance to play with G10 on a small paid project in addition to some home stuff. I enjoyed G9... but the things G10 can accomplish, especially in mixed lighting, is the work of eldritch sorcery and Rumplestiltskin. It's nothing I would have been able to accomplish grading on my own without expending far, FAR over the modest cost of this pack. Not only does it feel like an upgrade for the FS5, but it's even improving my already-solid A7RIV footage. My biggest complaint is that I'm resisting the urge to go back and re-grade projects delivered last year.

[@Big7media2011]

AW MAN! I have your older ones with green eyes , ice blue,etc. shoots!

[@G3bGuillaume]

Been using the G9's for a while now, but love the G10 update man! Skintones seem even better, and the image feels a bit less harsh. Especially the Arri Neutral profile was greatly improved! Great work!

[@phantomluts]

Thanks for the comment Guillaume! Glad they're working out for you!

[@danalderden7578]

Hey Joel, bought both of your LUT packs last week for my A7iii footage and I’m seriously blown away! They are so, so good! I’m getting exactly the look I’ve been after since I got my camera over a year ago and the 10 styles give so many creative options. Skin tones are incredible and even at 6400 ISO in low light I’m not having any noise problems with Slog2. Thank you so much for all the time you put into creating them!

[@phantomluts]

Thanks so much for this comment mate! I really appreciate hearing stuff like this - Glad they're working out for you!

[@danalderden7578]

Joel Famularo your welcome! Great to see a fellow Aussie creating something amazing! Hoping to post some shots soon to show the results I’m getting.

[@AiPreanksters]

Hey mate, any change you could share 1 of the luts, like the natural one, so I can test on my A7III before buying them =)

[@meysambabaei5760]

Still haven't got the chance to work with arri cameras, but the light setups they offer is, and always will be top notch

[@shirohae1993]

I already loved your previous Alexa LUT Pack, but with these, i have everything i need for a good and enjoyable grading process!

[@bendavies8852]

Awesome work! Thanks for producing these and your continued hard work!

[@hugox66]

I had been waiting for them for months, I want to be the first to congratulate you. This is magic.. :D

[@phantomluts]

thanks so much Hugo! Enjoy them!

[@Klaytonlol]

Hey, how to setup white balance while post processing to get the best result from your LUT?

[@LivingroomGearDemos]

Been using your luts for a while now! My setup has been a FS7 and a A73. I moved to an Amira too around 6 months ago. Didn't know you've done the same! In my workflow it's a bit difficult that your Sony to Arri luts are converting to Rec709. Are you considering making some Slog2/3 to Arri Log C luts? That would have suited my color grading workflow a lot better. Thanks for the great work you've done!

[@phantomluts]

Hi man - just saw this - no I figure why add a step - I just wanted to create LUTs that get you from S Log to ARRI 709 - have you tried them to match?

[@tomorrowscreative2206]

Hi Joel, I hope your well. I’m using your Slog3 utopia LUT on my Fs7, is the slog3 lut designed to work with slog3 or slog3cine

[@philippawounou9958]

Great job, looks so good 😍 Could you maybe do a side-by-side comparison to your old Luts? In my eyes they also came very close to an ARRI so I‘m not sure how big the difference might be... thanks!

[@phantomluts]

Philipp Awounou I may get around to it but I can tell you that the old LUTs were developed by me guessing - whereas these LUTs were developed alongside an actual arri. The colours are much closer to the real deal and the saturation is a lot more balanced. And skin tones - they are the biggest improvement.

[@HillPhantom]

Hello, I have a Sony A7 and the ZV-1 what lut pack should I be getting? TY very much!

[@EricMakingWaves]

At the end there all I could think was, "Damn that looks like a movie." I'm always fiddling with the skin tones on my Sony. Do you think these would help the lower end a6300/6400? I'm not shooting movies (yet) but I really want to improve the look.

[@phantomluts]

Eric Hanson yeah they work great with alpha cameras :)

[@andyamanaki]

Great video bro!

[@phantomluts]

Andrew Amanaki thanks dude!

[@mfeltster]

Sold! you rule! thank you!

My pleasure, Enjoy!

[@mjolsztyn]

great luts joel. I already purchased phantom arri luts on may 2019 but shuold I received new update by email?

[@phantomluts]

mjolsztyn yes I sent out the update email in January. Check your junk mail but if for some reason you didn’t receive it, there were instructions for you to get a massive discount on the updated luts. All you need to do is head over to joelfamularo.com/colour and repurchase whichever lut pack you initially did but in the ‘discount’ box enter your email address. Your email will act as your one time unique code and depending on which pack you bought the update will cost you $10-15. Enjoy!

[@MisterBandsman]

Looks great! Will there be a discount for people who already purchased the "Arri Luts G9"?

[@DVZM.]

Yeah there is

[@MisterBandsman]

@@DVZM. I just got the mail, thanks :)

[@erikmartin1045]

Hey Joel, just bought the luts and loving them during the day. Even loving them at night when shooting in 4k. I have a A6400 so unfortunately I have to drop down to 1080p 120FPS 100M for slow motion video. When I use this setting the footage is SOO grainy and almost unusable, which stinks because I always shoot slow motion footage. Any work ideas for work arounds or things I could do?

[@phantomluts]

I guess if the 120FPS stuff is grainy, it's partly to do with the codec but also I'd just feed the sensor more light in those scenarios. Wont have anything to do with the LUTs but the camera.

[@torinhill]

Hi Joel, I'm stuck with an a7riv HLG workflow--but I *really* want to use your luts. They're incredible, and I purchased them hoping to figure this out. Any suggestions on how I can incorporate them? My camera sensor seems to have a better curve with HLG vs slog2, as it's 8-bit. Let me know your thoughts!

[@phantomluts]

Torin Hill yep all I can tell you is no one is shooting Hollywood films with HLG - they use LOG coz it’s the key to get the most cinematic images with the dynamic range and colour depth. Check this short film out. It was shot on an a7sii and graded with my Alexa LUTs. Shot on slog2. You can’t get that image with HLG and my LUTs won’t work anywhere near as well with HLG as with S log. vimeo.com/358437499

[@1grigoredan]

What if you shoot in HLG with a A7 III, will it work? Of course, on a lower intensity.

[@phantomluts]

Dan Grigore do a KZbin search for phantom LUTs HLG. There is a guy who does it - I can’t remember his name but he gets great footage mixing them actually

[@juliareynes7243]

Hi Joel, I was wondering if I shoot Slog3 sg3cine on the FS7 which lut works best: the Slog2 sg3cine or the Slog 3 lut ? I'm asking because I'm not sure if the Slog 3 lut was made for Sgamut color space or sg3cine color space. I want to be able to match Slog3 sg3cine on my FS7 and FX3.

[@phantomluts]

Hi Julia, The slog3 fs7 LUTs are made for slog3+sgamut3cine so they’re the best to use for sure. The a7s3 LUTs are best for the fx3 as they have the same sensor and colour science. Matching between all 6 cameras I currently support is decent but I want it to be better so I’m planning a complete re-build of all the LUTs in the coming months to make sure they all match my Alexa and each other even better than now. So if you get the a7s3 LUTs and find the matching wth your fs7 takes a bit of tweaking then don’t worry it will be getting better as I roll out free updates as soon as I get the time and the right weather here (need to shoot a whole new battery of side by side tests with my Alexa but need good weather to capture the best colour). Hope that helps! Joel

Hi Joel, a huge thanks to your creation that saves us Sony shooters a huge headache! I have bought your combo LUTS and do appreciate your advice on the picture profile settings to go along with the slog 2, slog 3, slog 2 sgamut cine. (i.e black level 0? Color Phase 0?) Thanks in advance! Regards, from Singapore

Hi man - my pleasure! Glad they're working out for you. I just use standard picture profile settings but feel free to experiment.

[@LensMeFilm]

@@phantomluts Alrighty thanks again for your prompt reply!

[@LensMeFilm]

Hi Aaron here again, I purchased your LUT pack 3 months ago, and it has been great for my Sony a7iii and my crew. I do mix it with up HLG sometimes with lowered intensity as some scenes, slog2 is not practical in bad lighting conditions. The blacks are totally crushed and become too grainy. Anyway this is the result of your beautiful work :) I thought to share this with you my little self-made film of this current pandemic outbreak. Greetings from Singapore.

[@TheGuigotz]

Does it works good with sony A7c (because it has a different color science from a7iii)

[@smartbox2986]

Hi Joel. I'm sorry because I'm still a novice in this video world. Regarding the LUTs that you sell online, is it a software that you install in the Sony camera itself or in the PC/Laptop during post-production? What is the cheapest budget Sony video camera model that we can use with this LUTs? Thanks in advance.

[@phantomluts]

So yep - you use them in your editing program (Premiere/Resolve/Final Cut etc) and any camera that shoots S Log will work with them. I know the a6400/6500 or miost of the alpha cameras will work with them :)
