- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 8 ม.ค. 2023
- Ever since the Lumix S5ii was announced, I was super excited to try the Real Time LUT feature for photography. Here is a real-world photowalk where I challenge myself to only use Real Time LUT - zero editing!
★ Presets used in this video (all compatible with Real Time LUT as of 2024!)
"Streetwise" is a preset from my "City Escape" preset pack, which also includes the "Everything" Preset as a free bonus
My "Black Frost" preset is available in my black and white pack. All presets can be found here: www.microfournerds.com/lightr...

In the spirit of honesty I did take several shots about 5 times because I am TERRIBLE for shooting wonky 🤣 but I did stick to the challenge 100% 💪
Dear Lumix, please bring this feature to the m43 cameras 🙏
I am going to bet they already have a Micro 4/3 processor with PDAF. Lumix GH6 II probably coming with that new fan of the S5 II/S5 IIx.
I'm going to make the switch from my Sony system to the S5II this year. Panasonic really nailed it with this camera.
Which Sony are you switching from?
I’m with you. I hope to ditch the A7 IV. Native glass looks good enough.
As a Fuji film simulation fan boy, this feature has definitely caught my attention!
Yes! It also has me wanting to try the Fuji recipes to compare haha
@@MicroFourNerds As a primarily Fuji Shooter LUTs seem to give even higher flexibility. Just load the LUT and forget. No need to manually input all recipe settings into the profile.
@@MicroFourNerds you definitely won't be disappointed! So many cheap and wonderful Fuji's to experiment with.
Very very cool!! What a coincedeince i just did an almost exact same street photography fun challenge as you! Real Time LUT is definitely my favourite new feature for the S5II. Great photos (and video) as usual Emily!
Thanks Richard!! Yes I loved your video I loved the wider aspect ratio you chose! Such a fun feature it’s my fave too. I hope they bring it to other cameras 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Very beautiful picture! quite impressive especially Merry go round , it shows perfect quality of Lut and stabilization !!!!
I love your content. Everything is well described, shots are great, interesting and natural.
Those carousel shots are absolutely outstanding! The luts really compliment the artistic blur!
YEEEE such amazing pics! Love it
🙌🙌🙌🙌 fanks Josh!
For me, as a jpeg (90% of the time) shooter, I would be interested in seeing a comparison between a Lut enhanced raw image and a straight out of camera (SOOC) jpeg of the same subject/same exposure triangle settings image. As a strictly hobbyist photog, I find editing my raw images a bit too much of a slog for the minimal improvement gained in my editing effort and current level of editing skills. I tend to attempt to adjust my jpeg settings in camera before the shutter release and am quite pleased with the results that I achieve. The LUT preset feature, to me, seems like coming full circle back to a 'prebaked image' similar to shooting jpeg to reduce the slog of editing. In the end you are setting your personalized preset to a variety of images that is similar to a jpeg image where the photog has taken the time to adjust in camera image settings to be applied to the jpeg image. Most of my archived raw images are completely unedited only my much fewer 'important to me' raw files have been edited. I really enjoy your content, Emily.
I see what you mean! You could keep a “safe” jpeg in two ways:
If you didn’t like the applied LUT you could convert the unedited RAW version to JPEG in a few clicks in-camera, in the Raw Processing section. Or even apply a better LUT at that point.
The other way would be to shoot just JPEG, and toy around with adding the LUTs in-camera after shooting. But that definitely adds an extra step!
I really like your comments, and while I have to look into this more, there still may be some advantages to shooting JPEG, because you can adjust the "Sharpness" and "Noise Reduction" which, while a lot of people like to put it off for Post-Production, I think it can help reduce the "digital" look of the shots with CERTAIN lenses (because they are too sharp for certain sensors). I've built a website with what I call "lens-sensor specific" settings due to this.😃
Love it! Amazing how well photos and video is coming out without any retouching in post. Very inspiring photos too, I think I need to come to Liverpool sometime soon to shoot some street photography
Yes you should!! It’s such a beautiful city and there’s always something going on
Oh Lady, those are some crazy good shots! Bravo.
Thanks so much! ☺️
Thank You for this great video. I am in love with ... this new camera. 🥰 Best regards, Kai the bee filmer. 😉
I just bought your everything lut and I have to say it is mindblowing! I use it on a G9II and it makes the work so much more beautiful and fast. Thank you for all your hard work and effort! Best of luck!
Thanks so much!
Great video- really appreciate your style and, description for how to use and now I am so looking forward to this camera feature for M43!
Thank you! Yes. This needs to come to m43!
perfect. Lumix for life!
I only discovered your channel a few weeks ago, you do amazing work and have such a pleasant personality. Anyway, I liked this video so much I ordered one of our Preset packages and I don't even have my S5II yet. But it would be a honor to have one of yours as my first experimental one added to the camera. Keep up the good work.
Thanks very much! Hope you love the camera (and the presets!) ☺️📸
Thanks so much for covering this! Could you do a comparison between applying your lut in camera vs in post with video? Really interested to see if the quality is similar.
Loved this video - thank you! Subscribed.
As a fuji shooter, I love that idea. Fuji has great recipes for film sims, but this is the next level of in camera customization. Very cool.
I just bought Ted Forbes Fujified film simulations in anticipation of loading them onto the S5ii when I buy one to get the Fuji look on a lovely Panasonic system.
@@CMDILL86sorry for late reply, did you ever end up loading Teds presets? I haven’t worked out how to get them out of Lightroom yet.
Glad I found this video from you, Emily. Looking at getting the Lumix S5 IIx when it is available at the end of May. Want to get your LUTs for it.
This is so exciting. I want it in all my cameras. Finally I could use my presets straight out of camera.
I wish Panasonic can bring an S5 experience but in Micro 4/3 format, so better readout speed, less rolling shutter, etc. If the S1H is to the GH series, maybe the S5 can be to the G series.
Gosh imagine this on a GX camera. Would be so dope.
It would be so good! Especially for street photography!
@@MicroFourNerds I still love and use my GX8 with Olympus M.Zuiko 12-40mm f/2.8 Pro for documentary video and stills. A 35mm sensor version with the latest Lumix goodness inside would be perfect. Much prefer digital rangefinder-style and rangefinder cameras for documentary work.
definitely agree that this feature makes shooting more phone! especially for family events
Super helpful tutorial, thank you!
Beatifull luts
Beautiful photos as well :D
I still own 2 Pentax Q7 cameras and I lulululove them. There was a guy named Blunty and his Pentax Q my favouritest camera ever video. Thats how I discovered these tiny little things existed and they are still working and that led me to Pentax DSLRs that are still amazing that led me to mirrorless. (youtube kinda does that with its suggestive videos.) Like you , I fell in love with M4/3 because of their size and all of mine still work great from the Olympus EPL1 then OMD EM5 and EPL5 that are 10 years old then lastly a Panasonic GX85 and Lumix ZS1000 that led me to the new Panasonic S5ii that I got yesterday and WoW what a beauty it is. also they threw in a free 50mm 1.8 lens to go along with the kit lens (thanks Panasonic) anyways Ive been watching your always cheerful smile since you started and enjoyed that we have the same tastes and a few of the same cameras. now you told me that I can get similar film sims that are on my Fuji cameras? makes me think I just might have a sister from another mother... Thanks once again for your always amazing videos.
Great fun video Em :)
Thanks Sam!!! Saw your super famous face in the UK Lumix S5ii ad this evening! 👀
We should get a gx10/gx9markii with incamera LUT and new phase detect autofocus
as a fuji jpeg lover, I liked this video
Seems like you’ve indirectly talked about the amazing IBIS without directly talking about it. Those handheld king exposure shots are bonkers!
This is great, it has just occurred to me that I don't need to eye Fuji for their - attractive - film simulations any more. Hope this becomes an update for the S5 as well.
nice seeing you in Kai's video, s5ii is a beast, out of my budget though
Ummm - This is Awesome!!! ;)
This is a game changer! Wooow. Does this work for videos too? Love it!
It does indeed! All the video after the intro is using Real Time LUT too with no editing afterwards 😊
@@MicroFourNerds Incredible!
FAB-U-LUT
I do love a good pun 😂
These look really retro vibe and style
Ok, this is tempting for quick turn event photography where bringing photos into lightroom isn't really ideal. Thanks Emily! Also, i'm LOVING your everything preset from the whole bundle of them. Would you say it works well with gh5 vLog?
Thank you! It will work great for V-Log footage - I convert my v-log footage to rec709, I usually use Panasonic’s free LUT, but any will do, then you can put a second creative LUT (like the Everything Preset) on top and dial it in to taste 😊
Hello. I just bought this camera recently and tried a few free LUT's that people shared online - this is indeed a killer feature for me. May i ask do you use every LUT from your preset with CNED2 style or just these 3 mentioned in the video? Thank you.
Merry-go-round photos are wonderful. Must be so satisfying to do that without a tripod. AF much better in low light now too?
Brilliant in low light now it doesn’t rely solely on contrast. Absolutely no missed shots at all in terms of focus. So good!
@@MicroFourNerds Sounds great. Just wish I could adapt my AF E-mount lenses to L-mount, like I can with the Nikon Z9. Saves me having to buy all my stuff again in a different mount!
Can you explain how to create your own luts coming from Lightroom presets? Have made the switch from Sony to this S5II and I’m excited so far.
I used a piece of free software called LUT Generator. It isn’t something Lightroom can do natively
No photo ruts with LUTs! As Panasonic bakes in more intelligent image processing, LUTs provide sweet frosting to their cake. Tasty! Awaiting reports on the firmware updates for the niggles noted about the S5ii, and the big announcement from Panasonic and MicroFourNerds: G9ii & GH7 are on the way!👍
Yes please!! I’m daydreaming of having this mode on the existing G cameras 🙏 and so excited to see what the next generation of m43 brings!!
Love your videos! Will you still be using your gh6?
Oh, definitely! And my fleet of little m43 cameras haha
Boost IS enables me to ditch the monopod. It really is amazing and creates freedom.
Going to wait for the S1R Mark 2 and hope that it has this feature as well as better autofocus etc. Until then i'll stick to my A7R3's
Love my S5II but If the S1RII gets the new AF system and can do 8K open gate, thats going to be very tempting.
looks amazing!! question, are you using presets (Lightroom presets) or luts (.cube ) its just that you said that you're using presets for photography and that got me confused.
Thank you! I have converted my custom lightroom photo presets into LUTs (.VLT files) to use with real-time LUT 😊
WANT! This camera seems to have everything I like from the m43 Panasonic (and some even from Olympus like that crown dial around the shutter). How is the IBIS though? Does it perform as good as G9 for photography? How about the grip? I don't have big hands, but my pinky is always on its own on my A7 III grip. I just can't make peace with the Sony, so this pany is on the table if it comes close to what the G9 could do.
I’m in the middle of testing the ibis against the gh6, but the s5ii ibis is delightful so far really solid. And I do quite a lot of handheld photography so it’s been really solid for that.
I have tiny hands so I might not be the best judge but it fits my hands well. Maybe in the coming weeks you could head to a local camera shop and try one in person to see how it feels.
I’ve been really impressed so far with the s5ii for photography.
Fab video emily would you say your everything lut which I own I might add would suit vlog profile more than the other settings I use it a bit on cined I'm on gh5mk2 .......for now lol
You can use it with V-log for sure! The method I personally use is shooting in V-log for all that lovely extra dynamic range, then adding a rec709 LUT first (Panasonic offer one on their website it’s free) then adding the Everything Preset LUT, as a second LUT, and dialling the intensity to taste 😊
Very informative video! Do you know if this is also possible on the S5 mark 1?
No it’s not
Thanks for being you and doing what you do! One question. Is the dual native ISO for Real Time Lut 640/4000 or is it something else? Thanks!
Depends whether you're shooting video or photo. In video it's based on vlog, so it's 640/4000 and for photo 100 / 640.
An example of a great feature that hasn't been waiting for any specific technical breakthrough. The software side looks unbaked. The name LUT... why name it after an implementation detail? This industry picks names, poorly 😊
p.s. great video explainer! And a great venue too!
Hey, Lovely video... What would be the difference between real time LUT (for photos) and Nikon's Picture Control ? I want to go back to Lumix but I am still learning more and more. Your channel is amazing!
So I’m just having a read up, and it looks like Nikon’s Picture control is more of a way to emulate certain film stocks, similar to the Fuji Recipes. With Real Time LUT you aren’t limited to film emulation, because a LUT gives you complete control over all the colour values, highlight, shadow and contrast.
What it doesn’t have is digital noise or grain reproduction, as you can’t add that into a LUT file.
There are of course pros and cons to both but for me personally Real Time LUT is much more versatile and will allow me to convert any of my photo presets, not just film emulation.
Hope that helps!
You can also add noise via the normal base picture profile settings then apply the lut over the top. E.g natural profile w/highlight or shadow adjustment, grain, then lut.
@@PhotoVideoTechOz wow if this is true I might have to switch over to the s5ii. or wait patiently for them to bring the feature over to M43 😅
@@MicroFourNerds thank you! Now I got it… I will be waiting for the new generation of Lumix S high resolution;) saving money from now on…. I still have my G7
This @dimasphotographer btw :) just learning here ty
Question... When using the Real Time LUTs feature can you preview it before committing to taking a photo or video?
You can indeed it shows up as it will look on screen 😁
I’m thinking of buying one of your 15 preset packs. Which one would you say works best with the s5ii? Especially the real time out feature? Just so you know, I’m not professional, I like to take pics of my family, mostly outdoors. And I like to vlog from time to time. Which one do you think would sort of check all the boxes?
For portraits, I think the Radiating Beauty pack would be great - it’s designed for people specifically. “White and airy” and “moody portrait” (in that pack) are some of my faves and work great with Real Time LUT.
The main preset in this video was “streetwise” from the City Escape pack, which is one of my faves for street photography at the moment.
Both of those packs (Radiating Beauty and City Escape) come with “the everything preset” included, which is also in this video and a brilliant all-rounder. Great for people and - well - everything haha. that’s the preset I’ve been using in my wedding business consistently for the last few years.
Hope that helps 😊
@@MicroFourNerds yeah it does. Thanks.
Thanks for the helpful video! When you say you needed to adjust white balance occasionally, did you switch to a completely manual setting (like daylight or tungsten) or did you keep it on auto WB and just make fine adjustments to the color? I'm curious about this since I usually just shoot RAW and edit in post but I am usually fine with straight un-LUT-ed jpg out of the camera. I do sometime use other photo color presets that come on the G9 (like vivid, scenery, etc). I do notice that when shooting in those preset modes, the RAW has that adjustment too.
Auto was fine for most of the time, and in daylight auto would be absolutely great. Some of the night time shots it was just a matter of cooling the temperature down in white balance settings so it looked more true to life. The vast majority of the time it was super simple and auto was fine 😊
@@MicroFourNerds Thanks for the clarification! Can you provide any more details on the difference between regular AWB and AWBc. I tend to use c more but not exactly sure what that corrects. I'm a big fan of your channel and may purchase your LUT package once I get my camera in. Thanks again!
Thank you! It really depends on which preset you’re using, basically, however you’d need to correct it in Lightroom, you replicate in-camera. So sometimes you’d make an image a bit warmer in editing or cooler if shot at night for instance.
But the vast majority of the time standard white balance is totally fine 😊
AWBc is very similar to AWB, it just reduces red hues under warmer/incandescent light - so that would be ideal to be honest if shooting at night.
(And AWBw does the opposite and gives you a warmer/redder image in man-made lighting situations)
@@MicroFourNerds Thanks so much for your detailed reply and info. I forgot about AWBw too so it's good to know the differences between them. I'm assuming the S5ii has those as well?
@@glennasakawa9880 yes 😊
Hello. When you use the real teal LUT, is the color grading baked in the jpeg and raw file?
Just the Jpeg the raw stays the as normal 😊
Im new to the lumix line. Just got the S5II. Im coming from Canon and Blackmagic but is it possible to use the real time lut but not have it baked into the video file?
You can use LUT preview as a guide when you’re filming and the video file will remain as normal.
Awesome pics.... What Lut u use on 2:30 min.
Thank you! They were “Streetwise” - such a good LUT/preset for low light stuff, it really makes the oranges pop
Where did you get the kits for the camera from- would like to add a few to my camera,
Thx in advance
Luts
Does this work on the original S5? I've just ordered it with the kit lens, 50mm, and 85mm for £1599, as my first full frame and only shoot badly composed jpegs on m4/3 and aps-c so far. But I know i like the panasonic menus and ergonomic so wanted to buy a panny.
Not currently, it may come with firmware but I don’t know how processor heavy it is, so might not be doable with the S5. I hope it does tho!
Hi! I have the S5 ii, but it doesn’t allows me to install the LUTs that i downloaded from panasonic.
It says that the item can’t be set. And they are .cube files…
Any idea why this is happening??
Thank you, and nice video!
Ya know some cube files I’ve tried have done the same. I can’t get to the bottom of it! Luckily if you convert them to VLT files they work.
Can you apply these LUTs to RAW files AFTER the shot has been taken? I shoot Fuji where you can create your own LUTs (recipes) but they can only be applied before you start shooting. As someone who does a lot of in-camera editing this is a huge ballache...
You can! In the RAW processing section, in camera, you can choose any of your 10 saved LUTs as well as tweak contrast etc then export it as a jpeg in camera
@@MicroFourNerds man I have been beeeeeegging Fuji to implement this. They do it all back to front!
I think you can still apply recipe into raw in editing. At least it looks like this when I edit my Fuji raw files in dxo photolab 5. there is an option to apply rendering from recipe.
I don't use Lightroom and don't intend on starting. If I buy your presets, can I export them directly onto my S5ii? What format do presets usually come in?
Yes you can! Most presets come with just the Lightroom files so youd need to convert them yourself (which requires Lightroom). My main packs come with the CUBE and VLT files included. The .VLT files are the LUT files for Real Time LUT, no lightroom required 😊 just stick them on your SD card and they'll work.
("Radiating Beauty" is great for skintones, "Chasing Advenute" is great for landscapes and "City Escape" pack is my fave and designed for street and travel photography)
@@MicroFourNerdsThanks so much! Very helpful. Will check out your presets.
There is something about real time lut Im not sure about, if you do bake the lut into your video footage, would you lose all dynamic range info? You would not be able to recover lights and shadows?
Yes you really have to nail the video in-camera for this to work well. Ideal for a studio environment that never changes. Too risky for unpredictable scenarios in my opinion. For photo it's amazing because even if the jpeg is not good the raw file is there as a backup
@@MicroFourNerds ooook so not an option for a wedding I guess 😅
Thanks for your quick reply.
Love your channel! ❤
Hi
I need some help. When i use my LUT my ISO is 640 and i cant shoot at the street in the sunny day. How i can downgrade ISO&? you LUTS make iso 640 too? THX
So if you set up that custom look using v-log as your base profile, 640 is the base iso. It won't go lower. My luts (and probably many others!) Use a more natural profile as the base. I use Cine D personally, which means you can shoot any ISO ya like and it'll look lovely!
What lenses did you use for these beautiful shots?
They’re the Lumix 1.8 prime set, it should say on most photos which focal length. Mostly the 35mm and 50mm. Lovely lenses!
@@MicroFourNerds thanks 😊
Where are you in the video? Looks like a nice city
Liverpool 😊
How much slow shutter speed can possible without tripod for drag shutter photography? Thank you in advance
Some of these went up to 1.3 seconds. I think 1 second is a good spot. You can definitely push it more tho! I’m going to do a full test very soon against the gh6 because you can manage up to 4 seconds on that handheld it’s insane
@@MicroFourNerds Thank you for your reply. Lumix camera stabilizer really game changer
I quite liked the look of your baked in LUT for your B roll and the B&W LUT for the stills images.
Was the talking head at timestamp 3:24 using your baked in LUT as well, because I liked your skin tone which looked natural, even in the different lighting. 😀
The only LUT I use is the LOG 709 in the LOG View Assist when filming with my GH6. I'm scared of LUTS but I do like the View Assist when shooting in Log.
Do I get a prize for spying your Leeming Utility LUT at the start of the clip. 😀
I love the Leeming LUTs! Those and the Gamut LUTs are my faves for when I want a natural and not over the top grade ☺️
@@MicroFourNerds Since learning how to use Resolve correctly, I have discovered that the Utility Leeming LUT became redundant. Resolve uses a massive colour space and can utilise the entire log profile and maps it to your monitor for grading. The magic is done under the hood so you see a precise mathematical representation which looks great on your monitor. I never realised just how good Panasonic colour science was till I learned about this from people like Darren Mostyn and Cullen Kelly.
I have a feeling that Resolve would work wonders with your creative LUTs.
Can you do photo film simulations in Lumix G880?
Unfortunately not, just the s5ii, s5iix and the g9ii at the moment
@@MicroFourNerds Thank you
Can you load your LUT just for the screen/viewfinder and NOT to bake it in into jpegs?
You can for video but not photo as far as I’m aware I think it’s called LUT Viewer.
@@MicroFourNerds thank you. I hoped i would be able to do false colors in photo mode. Welll... Maby next time😀
Could you not perform some hocus-pocus to allow the embedding of your ♥️♥️♥️ presets in my ♥️♥️♥️ Pen e-p5 ?
Just guessing… yellow is your Favourite color?
Can I do this on the S5?
Unfortunately not, just s5ii, s5iix and g9ii so far
@@MicroFourNerds what a shame 😪 hoping to get a loan of a G9ii soon..
Love your channel and love my lumix cameras even more.
Have a G100, G9 and a S5
Ferris wheel?
Hahaha it’s a carousel isn’t it 😂 crap
Where's my phase-detect G9?!
I know right?!?! Hurry up Lumix!!
Where is my phase detect gx9 style small rangefinder style camera.
once AI gets added into these cameras.... it's gonna be wild
Panasonic already incoporates AI. I want them to make a social media live feature off camera with an added sim slot, and potentially with the addition of a battery grip. that would dump the game on its head
Great video. The moving speckles in the background were really distracting to me though.
I'm sticking with M43, so unsubscribed.
Me too haha plenty of m43 content to come (literally bought two m43 cameras this month) but that’s totally fine, there will be full frame, and general camera stuff on here as well as m43, which I get isn’t for everyone!
