Your look, straight out of camera
LUMIX Real Time LUTs

Everything runs in your browser. Photos, HALDs and LUTs never leave your computer: no upload, no server, no account.

Notes

Made for ordinary sRGB photos, so it sits on the Standard Photo Style. Converted from the collection's level-12 HaldCLUT ("Fuji 160C 2") to a 33-point LUT for LUMIX Real Time LUT; the colours are unchanged. Film names describe what the simulation aims for; it isn't affiliated with or endorsed by the film makers.

01Get a HALD image

Open it in Capture One (or any editor) and grade it with colour and tone tools only. Leave off sharpening, noise reduction, clarity, vignette, grain, lens corrections and cropping.

Portra, Ektar, Vision3, Velvia and more, simulated from measured film data. Uses the V-Log base.

02Load your graded HALD

Export it at 100% size in sRGB. 16-bit TIFF or PNG gives the smoothest result.

03Camera settings

Turn V-Log into a normal picture before your grade

In-camera effects Experimental

Grain, colour noise, sharpness and noise reduction can be stored in the LUT so the camera sets them when it loads it. Panasonic documents these tags only for newer bodies (such as the LUMIX L10) and doesn't publish the exact format, so your camera may ignore them: check on the camera before relying on them. They need a base Photo Style; “Not set” leaves the camera's own setting alone.

04Save the LUT

33-point .cube. Copy it to the card or import it with LUMIX Lab, then load it under Real Time LUT.

01Add photo pairs

A pair is one frame twice: the before as the camera renders the base Photo Style, and the after with the look you want. The LUT learns how every colour changes from one to the other.

Photos pair up in file-name order.

    What to shoot
    • 4 to 8 pairs is plenty. Colour variety matters more than the number of photos.
    • Between them, cover skin, foliage, sky, a few strong colours (red, yellow, blue) and neutrals from deep shadow to bright highlight. A colour chart in one frame helps a lot.
    • Make both photos of a pair from one file. To copy a Photo Style, process one RAW in the camera twice (once in the base style, once in the style you want). To copy a Capture One or Lightroom look, edit the camera JPEG and export it at the same crop.
    • Export in sRGB. Keep the after to global adjustments: masks, vignettes, grain and lens corrections can't go into a LUT, and pairs that use them are left out or fit loosely.

    02Learn the LUT

    This becomes the LUT's base Photo Style, so the camera renders the same before.

    Smoothing

    More smoothing ignores noise and small mismatches; less follows the pairs more closely.

    Make any LUT LUMIX-ready

    Drop .cube files you bought or downloaded. Each one is shrunk to 33 points if it's bigger, given a 0–1 input range, and has any 1D shaper built in. Values outside 0–1 are clipped, and names are shortened for the SD card. Everything happens on your computer.

    If a LUT is made for Rec.709 (a normal-looking picture, as most creative LUTs are), pick Standard. Keep V-Log only for LUTs made for V-Log footage.

    Grain, colour noise, sharpness and noise reduction can be stored in the LUT so the camera sets them when it loads it. Panasonic documents these tags only for newer bodies (such as the LUMIX L10) and doesn't publish the exact format, so your camera may ignore them: check on the camera before relying on them. “Keep from file” keeps any of these tags the LUT already has. They need a base Photo Style; “Not set” leaves the camera's own setting alone.

    Make a photo collage

    Put several photos together into one image: a collage for Instagram, a moodboard for a shoot, or a contact sheet of a session. Add the photos, choose a size and a layout, and Fill arranges them so every photo keeps its shape and nothing is left empty.

    02Layout

    Template

    Fill and Treemap fit every photo at its own shape with no gaps; Mosaic and Grid use columns.

    03Look

    Photos are previewed through the look; the export runs it on the full-size photos.
