I'd like to share a false color LUT I made for monitoring SLOG3 while shooting.
My goal with this LUT is to display a properly transformed REC709 image that is both good for judging exposure AND pulling focus.
My problems with most other false color LUTs are:
1. They're designed for a REC709 image, so if you're shooting SLOG3, they're off.
2. The false color is overwhelming. Assigning every value to a color makes the image a confusing rainbow.
With this LUT, I only color a few key ranges:
Middle grey = green
Caucasian skin = peach
Nearly crushed shadows = blue
Nearly blown highlights = red
Because the majority of the image is a B&W image with proper contrast, I can keep the LUT up even while puling focus.
Posting link to the LUT here in case someone else might find it useful: https://drive.google.com/open?id=19TAScaDPGomHoBjbHaLllyBfJ7Z4MvpB&authuser=joe%40humcrush.com&usp=drive_fs
