Leeming LUT One released for the JVC GY-LS300 video camera

Visceral Psyche Films has released Leeming LUT One for the JVC GY-LS300 video camera. It is available for download here:

Leeming LUT One

Leeming LUT One is well-known in the Panasonic GH4 community as one of the best solutions for achieving consistent, high-quality images utilizing the camera's maximum dynamic range. This LUT is calibrated for use with the LS300's J-Log1 profile to give your image the best starting point for further grading and esthetic refinement. In addition, Leeming LUT One may be used to match LS300 footage with the GH4 and other supported cameras.

To develop this LUT, I worked with Paul Leeming on testing and evaluating a wide range of LS300 footage, taken in both natural and artifical lighting conditions. The results of this collaboration satisfy all of my requirements for a standarized post-production workflow that makes full use of the dynamic range of the LS300's J-Log1 profile. It is provided in a format compatible with a wide variety of editing and grading tools and can be flexibly integrated into virtually any type of post-production workflow.

Just ordered the GH4 Version. Looking forward to working with the LUT. I am also considering the LS300. I am like the fact that I could match the GH4 to the JVC.

Here is an LS300 frame grab in original unedited J-Log1 format, along with a color corrected version using the LS300 Leeming LUT. Note how both the highly saturated hues of the color chart and the natural shades of the sunlit landscape are rendered with accurate color values.

Here is a sample video showing the LS300 Leeming LUT in action. The video begins with uncorrected J-Log1 footage, and uses a screen wipe to apply the Leeming LUT. This video was shot with a fast shutter speed in order to eliminate motion blur.

Here are 3 framegrabs from a recent shoot I did in JVC log with a JVC indoor LUT and the leeming lut applied to it, some clear color differences visible.

Is the Leeming LUT more accurate Noa?

To be honest, I don't know :) but I guess it is, that shot was whitebalanced using a expodisc and the only way to know for sure is to test it on a colorchart. The jvc lut does push colors more towards yellow and green while the leeming lut doesn't do that.

Thanks Lee for your post here :) Just found it sorry!

To know how accurate it is, I thought I'd do a quick Google Search for Ferricure packaging as that's the brand I could make out in the image.

Here's what I found.

Based on that image and a couple of others like it, I'd say that yes, mine is definitely more accurate :)

Cheers,

Paul :)
