How to make a LUT
Updated onArticleAll Monitors – SmallHD – Technical – Conversion LUTs
PROBLEM
Is there a way to get the LUTs pre-installed on my SmallHD Focus monitor from the monitor to my computer? In particular the one converting the slog-3 to a rec 709. Any chance I can get that one?
SOLUTION
Unfortunately that internal conversion is not made with a LUT. We recommend this free pack of utility/conversion LUTs, though, which includes S-Log3 to Rec 709:

Safe (guides)
Updated onArticleAlso known as Title-safe, this tool provides a simple line border near edges of the frame as a friendly reminder to keep important elements in-frame to account for 'overscan'- some TVs will crop out part of the frame to fit various aspect ratios/resolutions being sent and title safe is still used by broadcast stations and other users not using an internet medium.

Aspect (guides)
