Thank you. Excellent and directly stated. I’ve switched to HLG now unless D-Log M ever gets serious and is proven to be better.

[@JasonRobertsVideo]

Thanks so much - glad the video was useful - hope you get on ok with HLG :) Check this video as well it might be useful: th-cam.com/video/DPYopzaAn4k/w-d-xo.html

Great Video. Even though everything stated is right, I would not use HLG. The colors one gets even after a color space transform are off. They are way too saturated, and the skin tones are too reddish. A big amount of time has to be spent color grading with every clip to get things right.
Besides that, the EV meter of the pocket is optimized for Dlog m. I got a lot of times blown out highlights with HLG even though the lightening was at EV 0. HLG is clipping one stop faster than d log m. All in all, in my eyes, HLG is not worth the hustle. There are too many downsides.

[@JasonRobertsVideo]

Thanks - better metering overall would be nice in the P3! Did you watch this next video yet? th-cam.com/video/DPYopzaAn4k/w-d-xo.html

I was using D-LOG M And was not getting good enough results, I will try HLG and document my findings here.
What did you feel personally cooler grading the two ? Did HLG offer much more ease and capacity to colour grade. ?

[@JasonRobertsVideo]

Also watch this th-cam.com/video/DPYopzaAn4k/w-d-xo.html One advantage of HLG is it's easier to work with in a proper color pipeline in DaVinci Resolve. I think you can get good results with both but I prefer the more "scientific" workflow of HLG. I still have more testing to do.
