First off, I just wanted to say that like you, today I sold my C300MarkIII and bought me a second C70. I bought the first C70 about 3 weeks ago and like you, fell in love with it. Anyway, i just want to tell you that I come from and from a career of being a combat cameraman to Network news cameraman over a 30+ years. My favorite part of shooting for CNN was the occasional sit down, lit interview. Unfortunately they were few & few between. I retired from CNN last year and have started my own production company. I never had to deal with file formats, codecs, log footage, or luts. I love how you explain things and so helpful. Thanks!
Hi Damien. Adding the LUT via the Extended setting means you are not able to bring back the most dynamic range of your image. You’re baking in that canon LUT and adding adjustments on top. This is fine if you have well exposed images in controlled lighting. As you do. But we found if you instead have no LUT selected in the settings and instead stack the following in the effects panel (which you can automate as a custom effect for speed): 1. Color correct 2. Custom LUT (canon) 3. Color correct Now when you Color correct that top one, you are working underneath the LUT. This is especially good when you want to rescue highlights that have been blown by the canon LUT. A quick colour mask select works great. Then you stack the rest below (which is kind of on top - fcpx has a strange system). So something like: 1. Color correct (hl recovery) 2. Custom LUT (canon) 3. Color correct / other LUTS / secondary corrections (now you’re in rec709) 4. Other LUTS and tweaks Hope that helps. It’s a game changer when you’re struggling with footage shot in imperfect conditions.
That’s a really interesting take and makes a lot of sense. I will give this a try. Although I find it hard to wrap my head around how to effectively color correct a clog 2 image 🤔
100% I was so confused watching this… You were very kind about it but yes any other way doesn’t make sense. You buy the c70 with dynamic range and C-log 2 in mind, the method in the video essentially defeats the purpose of shooting LOG altogether. Still super valuable as a start and maybe for a beginner colourist.
@@SebastianCristanchoYT oh yeah, 100% that only works if you expose correctly and was just an overview on how I use it for 90% of my stuff. When I find myself in a situation where I need to get the most out of it I grade from scratch or in resolve. I honestly didn't know the order of luts in final cut changes this. That's really good to know actually
@@SebastianCristanchoYT although I do disagree with the statement of not having to shoot clog2. If you compare this method vs using the picture profiles it's literally night day!
I just read the white paper on the apple website regarding camera luts in Final Cut and it does state when adding the conversion luts via the extended inspector tab the full dynamic range of the log file is preserved
Super good video, I would like to ask the teacher, if you record RAW on C70, how should you adjust the color temperature and iso on Final Cut Pro? Thanks
I love this brother here you are a blessing, I will buy your LUTs to support your movement. Can you make a video with C70 how you exposes c70 false color, waveform where you want the exposure to seat, like outdoor video please and thanks!
DC...I have the C70 and the RF 28-70 F/2 lens in my checkout box of Amazon. I would be switching from the GH6 to this....I make mostly commercial videos where I am doing everything...acting, recording, editing etc. A one man show and I will be also using the Atomos Ninja...Will I see an improvement? should I hit buy? LOL.
I want to say there will be a big improvement in overall usability. Although there's no need for the Ninja and the 28-70 might also not be the best choice at all. Maybe have a look at my C70 lens video first. And when you buy, make sure to click on one of my amazon links in the description first HAHA
Hi - really interesting - I've been adding the conversion LUT on the timeline via custom LUT - then I can place the color wheels curves etc before the LUT - you can then adjust the wide range of the cLog before it gets converted to rec709 - am i doing it wrong?? Thanks for the great videos!
Hi, I use premiere pro. How do you add the conversion LUT on the timeline via custom LUT? Do you just place an adjustment layer over the video and drop the lut on it? This colorgrading is pretty new to me.
cool video! i need a lot more time with the r5 clog3...many times i need to put mascs and neatvideo..but neatvideo turns this r5 in an 16 stops+ dr camera🤣
Hi Damien, very cool vid! I have a couple of questions. was this image RAW? And secondly, would you prefer C70 or BMPCC 6kpro for een independent feature? thanks!
@@damiencooper I saw the link now, but still can’t find where are the conversion luts hahahah sorry… I don’t know why they make it so difficult to find!

How long do you usually spend on color grading C70 footage?

I love the Lut pack v2!!! Thanks
is it 17 grid ,33 grid or 65 grid luts ? can they be baked in the c70 or just used in post production ?
3:45 one question. is your white balance settings on auto when you are filming outside? Or do you film everything with the same white balance?
Super good video, I would like to ask the teacher, if you record RAW on C70, how should you adjust the color temperature and iso on Final Cut Pro? Thanks
You can’t. So no point in shooting raw
I love this brother here you are a blessing, I will buy your LUTs to support your movement. Can you make a video with C70 how you exposes c70 false color, waveform where you want the exposure to seat, like outdoor video please and thanks!
Thanks man!
That video is already recorded and coming soon! 😉
@Damien Cooper You're welcome. I am looking forward!!
Thank you Damien, really appreciate this video, love it.
Great video. Are you using the paid version of Davicin resolve or free for this content.. Thanks

Great Video! Not sure I understand how/why you are adding 2nd color wheel... is that similar to having a separate node?
yeah, pretty much
Nice Video Bro we need More C70 Color Grading Videos!
Theres at least one more coming
Hi - really interesting - I've been adding the conversion LUT on the timeline via custom LUT - then I can place the color wheels curves etc before the LUT - you can then adjust the wide range of the cLog before it gets converted to rec709 - am i doing it wrong?? Thanks for the great videos!
Honestly. You might be doing it right and I’m doing it wrong. As the comment above said. I’ll test this and see if there’s a difference

Uff, neat video is a live saver!! But it takes sooo long
@@damiencooper m1 max is ok...and as long as i do not have to work for others i can live with it...but looking foreward to a new camera...
This was great! I can't wait for an update that allows embedded subject and background isolation for editing 💪🏽
That would be amazing
Yeah man! I imagine a day where we will be able to light a scene within Final Cut Pro if we lacked any specific lights on scene.
Great info
Hi Damien, very cool vid! I have a couple of questions. was this image RAW? And secondly, would you prefer C70 or BMPCC 6kpro for een independent feature? thanks!
It’s mostly mp4. I only Film raw if I have a very specific reason for it. And yes, C70 > BMPCC6K pro for everything
Is there also black friday discount available on this pack?
Yes it is. Damiencooper.store
any promo codes for these canon v2 and California packs luts avail?@@damiencooper
Hey Damien, do you think I could get similar results with a Canon R5C?
Yes for sure. I will do a dedicated video for the R5C too.
@@damiencooper Awesome, I just bought both your canon lut packs and they're pretty dope. I'll probably be using them for most of my work.
Would you say that this applies to all Canon cameras?
Depends. Everything after the rec709 conversion yes
Cant find the CLog 3 conversion lut from canon website… do you have a link?
Oh. I forgot to link it. Give me 5min
@@damiencooper thanks!!! I can’t find it on canon website 🤷🏻♂️
@@damiencooper I saw the link now, but still can’t find where are the conversion luts hahahah sorry… I don’t know why they make it so difficult to find!
@@Francisfphoto_ it is stupid difficult. Under software it’s called look up tables. Right under the firmware
@@damiencooper THANKS! Im new to this, but I think it should be easier to find hahaha
Nice 👍🏼
Auf welchen Bildschirm gradest du?
Nem 43“ LG. Kommt bald n „what’s on my desk“ video
@@damiencooper ok bin gespannt 👌🏼
Bin auf der Suche nach nem ordentlichen Monitor und das Apple Studio Display ist mir doch n Tick zu teuer 😅
@@MGVisuals2020 ja da brauchst nicht warten auf das Video.. Mein Monitor ist groß aber weit entfernt von nem Referenzmonitor..
are these luts for Final Cut Pro?
You can use them in any editor including Final Cut
ok the canon v2 pack is loaded in Final Cut now but need help with the California pack which says xmp not cube @@damiencooper
@@creativegreatsvisuals oh. The California pack is a preset for Lightroom. This is not for film
ok cool I'll keep it for Lightroom ,which other lut packs are for film ? @@damiencooper
@@creativegreatsvisuals great. There’s only two for film. V1 and V2
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I would honestly pay $97 for a film course from you
Could thing I’m currently working on one 😂
It won’t be 97$ though 🙈
Darn, its going to be worth the price! Keep us posted I’ll be your first order
Never found your image cinematic. It's always way too saturated especially in the orange hue. There are way better c70 grade on youtube imo
Okay
most unnecessary and irrelevant comment from someone with 3 subs.............
