this the real example that TH-cam is wrong with viewers and exposing the best videos - this video is perfect and supe beautiful and it deserves 1.000.000 viewers a day and it has made 2671 in 5 days - so I'm sure TH-cam algoritm is vrong compltly wrong . So what do we make great videos if youtube dosen't give them the right expositions this video deserve an Oscar .139 thumb up is mine
Been using this lut with CineD 8bit & 10bit and works really well. Shot full wedding with it. Nailing exposure, wb & getting it perfect in post before applying the lut is key to make your gh5 footage look like it's made with a MUCH more expensive camera!
Comin from a newbie, but that intro is pretty inspiring. The dancer is fantastic is but overall the framing, edits, n music just inject a lot of energy. Thanks!
Ah I’m afraid I can’t confirm how this would work for the Eva1 and full v-log! I’d probably try some regular film LUTs like the ones that come with Premiere it Resolve by default :)
There is a ''HUGE'' difference between the Daylight and the Tungsten versions (contrast, hues and saturation). You will notice it very easily when comparing both versions. Very obvious. Worth every penny. The GH5's sensor hasn't been optimized for Tungsten lighting (Daylight only, unlike the Alexa). So colors shift a lot (even with a perfectly dialed white balance). The Tungsten version has been made to match the way the true Alexa see colors under Tungsten lighting. Considering the V-Log L profile is sold for 100$, and has an horrible highlight roll-off (with plenty of RGB distortion) and quite bad color science in general (especially compared to the Alexa), I think paying 65$ more for making it look totally AMAZING in any scenarios isn't expensive (considering what it truly does). It's not only the hues and saturation, but mostly the saturation balance between each individual hues, and the different luma management that makes the Arri Alexa color science that good. This convertion is completely artifact free (obviously, you still need to expose the image correctly and set a custom WB to get accurate results).
Thanks for the detailed comment David! I must admit I haven’t tested both, but Alex (the creator) suggested to start with the Daylight only version and honestly I haven’t felt the need to upgrade yet, especially as my lighting is Daylight-balanced. I fully take your point though, and if matching to an Alexa is the goal then you’ve definitely got the budget for both versions :)
@@ShotByMyles Yes, Daylight is the ''main'' version, but even if your point isn't to perfectly match the Alexa, i would still strongly recommend to get the tungsten version. Of course, this is just a suggestion, i'm not telling you what to do. Skintones are a lot warmer. Send me a DPX still frame (original V-Log 10bit) shot under tungsten lighting, and i'll send back to you the converted images for comparison. Here is my email : davidlabbee@live.fr
David L'Abbée that’s a generous offer thanks! I don’t actually have any tungsten footage but will bear it in mind if I get any proper bi-colour lights!
@@ShotByMyles My pleasure man, cause since I actually worked with Alex on the development of this color conversion, I really like to help people get the very best out of it. Don't hesitate to ask i you need any help. Here, you can see what it looks like when shot in 1080p 10bit 422 All-I 60 fps. This is only some random test footage that i edited and color graded to look more cinematic. vimeo.com/347967408 Cheers! and thanks for making this video. :)
David L'Abbée oh cool, that was very nice! Do you see any pink / redness in the skin tones from the LUT yourself? A few have noted it on the FB group but your skin tone was perfect. Did you do anything else to it after applying the lut?
I bought it a week ago and I haven't got the good final result yet. I need to work a lot more on it.. Pro: Alex support by email is very fast Con: no Final Cut documentation yet ( he is still working on it ) BTW.. I'm going to buy your GH5 Course
Agreed, it is a bit tricky, and that's why I'd like to look at a FCPX video. Thanks for your comment and all the best with the course if you go for it!
@@ShotByMyles Hi Myles, tks man.. I'm looking forward for the FCPX video. Man.. I'm already watching your course :) First lesson is already great! Tks a lot
I own both the Daylight and Tungsten Luts. It would be wonderful to see what your workflow consists of in FCPX as apposed to DaVinci or Premiere. Thanks for the fantastic work and info on the GH5!! Cheers Dave Williams John Landon Multimedia
Stunning! I am currently editing with leeming lut shooting with HLG on the GH5. I would love to try this one and contrast and compare. (AND YES I would love to see you make a workflow video!)
@@ShotByMyles If I did compare them it would be a simple video since I don't know color science or any technical stuff. I grade based on what I think looks good. But I am learning :) My main takeaway from this video was the example of highlight ceilings. I will look at the lumetri scopes and try to keep my highlights more level from now
@@ShotByMyles Oh for sure. I love experimenting. I am still learning and trying to improve my color grading so I am playing around a lot with different looks so that hopefully I can develop my own style of color grading (eventually).
Yes please, +1 for the shoot/edit workflow! I haven't yet pulled the trigger on GHAlex mainly due to the cost. And also because I currently use the Leeming LUTs which require ETTR, which the GHAlex author specifically advises against. So it seems that the two aren't really directly comparable on the same footage, sadly. I'd love your opinion on Leeming also!
Hi Bob, it is on the steep side for a LUT in fairness, but I thought it worth a shot given the work that's gone in to it and with it being made for the GH5 rather some generic LUTs. I only have the Leeming LUT for Cine-D which was good but I didn't enjoy it as much when he incorporated the shift in exposure in to the LUT, it made me realise I don't always want to shoot ETTR and it wasn't performing well for normal footage. That said, Alex does allow for ETTR while using Cine-D and the settings they recommend for Cine-D are the same between GHAlex and Leeming- so LUTs could be interchanged I think. Much of this footage was actually ETTR as well, it's been corrected with a luma curve but honestly it does take a bit of time to get right!
Cool! I've found similar conclusions about the skin tones. Sometimes they are good straight away and sometimes they seem way too magenta. I've found correct white balance makes a big difference with this LUT, even more so than with others. Usually a bump from 5600k to 6000k makes a big difference for the skin tones, too. The skin tones of the model in this video look a bit too pinkish for my taste, a problem which I also have with this LUT.
Yeah white balance is really important! Even then I see some red pushed in to the skin... I know what you mean about my model shots, I wanted to show the LUT with only saturation / luma changes so it's there for everyone to see. If I spent ages working on them to make them perfect it'd be a less fair test and I'd want commission from the LUT creators haha
@@ShotByMyles Yeah definitely good as a scientific test. For the magenta skin tones I often just put a hue vs hue on there and take a bit of pink out. One other thing that would be cool to review is if this LUT is also a good starting point for further grading / if it leaves enough latitude.
Video Bros. good shout on the hue vs hue! I initially started on saturation but it soon makes people look like zombies :) I do some further grading myself after GHAlex (even applying other subtle creative LUTs) but it’s probably down to how well the GH5 codec survives being pushed around!
Awesome video homie, great in depth analysis (and good footage too). I like the softer look it gives. Did you mainly mess with the Luma settings or did you also play with the LUT intensity itself? That's one thing I found frustrating about the instructions is that it doesn't really tell you what setting to set the LUT itself to (leave at 100% full power or 50% etc) but I guess that is part of the creative side, it will depend video to video. My main complaint is still with the VLOG footage in low light, specifically in dark colors. I've had it happen to me and I could even see it in some of your examples, the noise especially in the blues is really noticeable. I've found myself leaning toward the CineD more often, which is why I'm glad you can still use the GHAlex with it
Thanks a lot Robert! I would defer to anything Alex says about how to get the best from it, but yes I always leave the intensity of the LUT at 100% and adjust luma or saturation if it's not looking right. Keep an eye out for a workflow video. Low light is a bit of an issue with v-log either way to be honest, I find Cine-D better there and I use it a lot for VFR stuff anyway :)
Thanks for putting this video together. At 3:29 can you explain why the noise using V-Log L and the GHAlex lut is very noticeable while the Cine-D profile has no noise? Take a look a the wall behind the drummer. Is this due to the V-log L footage being underexposed? Or could it have happened due to the application of this lut? If there is a good explanation I would like to know. Thanks!
Thanks a lot! I’ve noticed noise too, from memory the drummer was filmed entirely in Cine-D so I don’t think it’s v-log. You could certainly describe the walls as under exposed, but then I was exposing for the subject and I think that was normally e posed, so I’m not sure that’s avoidable. I’ve seen some noise on 10 bit footage with this LUT so I wonder if it’s because it’s lifting exposure in some hues, but honestly I’m not certain. If it’s a problem I’d de-noise or drop the shadows to crush the noise but I don’t find it too problematic.
Great informative video! It has really helped me on a commercial shoot I had recently. I would love to see a video showing the shooting and editing workflow!
It's a pretty decent LUT, I agree it is hard to use. However, last year we shot a music video on an Arri and then had to get some pick ups earlier this year. Instead of stomaching the hire cost of the arri again, we just used my gh5 and the out and honestly you can't tell the difference
Not strictly speaking, GH5S has a different colour science and this was developed for the GH5... but I did use some GH5S log footage in this very video I believe and my understanding is a GH5S update is coming. I'm not affiliated with the creator so I can't vouch for that!
I honestly didn't go with anything special with it in the end, just a subtle film emulation LUT like you get by default in Adobe or Resolve with exposure corrections :) it was nice footage, love to get talented people in action and the Sigma 18-35 did me proud with the Godox SL60 and window light!
@@unobruno_ It was all Cine-D, either in 4k 50P or FHD 100P (project is 25P), I have saturation and sharpening down at -5 and NR at -3. Some noise in these shots with me pushing the VFR stuff about too much :)
Does your guid include FCPX workflow? I saw some examples from fcpx but i feel like i need to ask. I bought the lut not knowing that the guide includes only davinci and adobe support. Thanks!
Hi Marko, the guide I made does touch on the FCPX workflow to colour correct the GH5 footage, but no editing other than that. If I do a guide on how to use the GHAlex LUT with FCPX it will be added to my course before TH-cam :)
Hi Marvin, not quite default, I use the settings recommended by the LUT creators, basically sharpness at -5, saturation -5 and then NR -5 if you're comfortable de-noising in post if required.
I’ve never tried one, but honestly I imagine it’s fine as long as it works. I hear lots of people happy with them but also lots of quality control issues. Metabones will have better chance of being reliable and maybe slightly better results if you pixel peep, but man is it expensive!
Hello Mark! Yes it was made for v-log as I understand it, but it comes with conversions for Cine-D and HLG and I've used those and been fairly happy with them. They actually recommend Cine-D for slow motion / 8 bit work :)
Thanks a lot! That was all on the GH5 with the Leica 15mm f1.7 for the gimbal shots (most of it) and any of the tight shots would be the Leica 42.5 f1.2.
@@ShotByMyles thanks bro, might havent to ditch the sigma 18-35mm 😂 subscribed ! Keep it up. Maybe a video on your in camera settings for gh5 to get some of those intro shots !
@@jagbirsingh5791 Haha I wouldn't ditch that! I actually sold the 15mm and got a Ronin S so that I can use my 18-35 on the gimbal... it's heavy! Cheers, the gimbal work was all manual focus, stopped down aperture with focus near infinity, Cine-D with saturation and sharpness down, and a mix of 4K50P and 100P :)
@@ShotByMyles but honestly what an amazing pull from the gh5 in the intro. It gives me a little bit of hope, I've just been a bit disappointed with the lack of quality in my footage. I've been blaming the Viltrox for my sigma, becuase I havent been able to hit infinity focus with it etc. Or it could just be me 😅 do you use viltrox or metabones ?
So much comes down to decent white balance and good exposure. 10 bit will probably be more forgiving in post if those are off, but I'm doing a manual white balance regularly if possible. I use the Metabones but I know there's a fix out there for infinity focus on the Viltrox. Honestly I'd rent something else to test or even pick up a cheap lens like the Panasonic 25mm f1.7 and see how that works for you- it could indicate an issue with your 18-35 setup if nothing else.
Hi, yes a lot of the concepts will apply and I’m intending on adding some videos to it soon to cover the G9 specifically where it differs from the others. I’ve got a G9 and have shot a few projects with it now so I’ve got a feel for it, just need to do the videos :)
Is it weird that in some shots I actually prefer the "punchy-ness" of your cineD lut? The drummer looked better with ghalex, but many of the others (black haired lady, rooftop lady)... I don't know. Some shots with the ghalex look too washed out, contrast gets zapped, magenta cast, especially on outdoor shots.
I wouldn’t recommend it to be honest, I suspect the S5 is full v-log rather than v-log L that the GH5 gets so it might work completely incorrectly... it’s already difficult to use on the GH5 and it was made for that camera!
I shoot way more daylight than tungsten so I went with just daylight. If you’re only going to get one I’d go with that unless more of your work is with tungsten lighting!
GC HUSTLE HAWAII hope it works out for you! Honestly I’ve been happy with just Daylight... as the saving for buying both isn’t that great you might be better off trying to live with just the one first and saving the cash if possible unless you’re matching to an Arri!
I’m not sure actually, it depends whether LumaFusion can accept ‘.cube’ LUTs! Just to be clear, this GHAlex LUT isn’t mine, but I do give away some Natural and Cine-D correction LUTs in other videos :)
Yeah it's like $60 for both daylight and tungsten I think? The creator bought an Alexa for the job and apparently spent a long time working on it! It isn't cheap, but it's not unprecedented- the Linny LUT is about $600!
this the real example that TH-cam is wrong with viewers and exposing the best videos - this video is perfect and supe beautiful and it deserves 1.000.000 viewers a day and it has made 2671 in 5 days - so I'm sure TH-cam algoritm is vrong compltly wrong .

@@ShotByMyles Thank you so much for the reply! I only wish I found this channel sooner. Subscribed 💯
Hi, Myles! Is the GHAlex lut optimized to be used with only V-Log?
Hello Mark! Yes it was made for v-log as I understand it, but it comes with conversions for Cine-D and HLG and I've used those and been fairly happy with them. They actually recommend Cine-D for slow motion / 8 bit work :)
@@ShotByMyles thanks for taking the time to reply! I have subscribed to your channel! Please keep making GH5 content!
Mark Viernes Will do, appreciate that- thank you!
How do you shoot for it!!!!! Make the blarn video!!!!
What camera and lens is this opening video shot on ? It looks amazing
Thanks a lot! That was all on the GH5 with the Leica 15mm f1.7 for the gimbal shots (most of it) and any of the tight shots would be the Leica 42.5 f1.2.
@@ShotByMyles thanks bro, might havent to ditch the sigma 18-35mm 😂 subscribed ! Keep it up. Maybe a video on your in camera settings for gh5 to get some of those intro shots !
@@jagbirsingh5791 Haha I wouldn't ditch that! I actually sold the 15mm and got a Ronin S so that I can use my 18-35 on the gimbal... it's heavy!
Cheers, the gimbal work was all manual focus, stopped down aperture with focus near infinity, Cine-D with saturation and sharpness down, and a mix of 4K50P and 100P :)
@@ShotByMyles but honestly what an amazing pull from the gh5 in the intro. It gives me a little bit of hope, I've just been a bit disappointed with the lack of quality in my footage. I've been blaming the Viltrox for my sigma, becuase I havent been able to hit infinity focus with it etc. Or it could just be me 😅 do you use viltrox or metabones ?
So much comes down to decent white balance and good exposure. 10 bit will probably be more forgiving in post if those are off, but I'm doing a manual white balance regularly if possible.
I use the Metabones but I know there's a fix out there for infinity focus on the Viltrox. Honestly I'd rent something else to test or even pick up a cheap lens like the Panasonic 25mm f1.7 and see how that works for you- it could indicate an issue with your 18-35 setup if nothing else.
Hello, I would like to ask if your course for Gh5/GH5S will apply for G9 as well?
Hi, yes a lot of the concepts will apply and I’m intending on adding some videos to it soon to cover the G9 specifically where it differs from the others.
I’ve got a G9 and have shot a few projects with it now so I’ve got a feel for it, just need to do the videos :)
@@ShotByMyles perfect!!! So the g9 videos will to added on! Thanks, im gonna get it!
WXY.ZEE that’s the plan yes! In the meantime if there’s anything you’re not sure about then by all means give me a shout through Udemy.
Is it weird that in some shots I actually prefer the "punchy-ness" of your cineD lut? The drummer looked better with ghalex, but many of the others (black haired lady, rooftop lady)... I don't know.
Some shots with the ghalex look too washed out, contrast gets zapped, magenta cast, especially on outdoor shots.
Want to use this Lut on the Panasonic S5 in both 8 bit and 10 bit
I wouldn’t recommend it to be honest, I suspect the S5 is full v-log rather than v-log L that the GH5 gets so it might work completely incorrectly... it’s already difficult to use on the GH5 and it was made for that camera!
@@ShotByMyles Ok. Thanks hope all is well Myles. Are you ever gonna come too London
Thanks man, you too! I’ll be honest I never get to London!
so which one should i buy? the daylight or tungsten?
I shoot way more daylight than tungsten so I went with just daylight. If you’re only going to get one I’d go with that unless more of your work is with tungsten lighting!
@@ShotByMyles thank you! I've been messing with alot of luts and this one seems to be the best looking. I might just buy both!
GC HUSTLE HAWAII hope it works out for you! Honestly I’ve been happy with just Daylight... as the saving for buying both isn’t that great you might be better off trying to live with just the one first and saving the cash if possible unless you’re matching to an Arri!
Can your luts be used in LumaFusion?
I’m not sure actually, it depends whether LumaFusion can accept ‘.cube’ LUTs!
Just to be clear, this GHAlex LUT isn’t mine, but I do give away some Natural and Cine-D correction LUTs in other videos :)
WORK FLOW VIDEO PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
$35 for a LUT? Are you serious?
Yeah it's like $60 for both daylight and tungsten I think? The creator bought an Alexa for the job and apparently spent a long time working on it! It isn't cheap, but it's not unprecedented- the Linny LUT is about $600!
