The main reason to use custom "Lens-Sensor Recipes" (& LUTs) is that every lens sends light to a sensor differently. Some sensors like sharp lenses (especially those with an optical low-pass filter) and some don't like a lot of sharpness. Some sensors love lots of color saturation, yet some can only take a little. Before I knew this, I was searching (for years) to find the perfect lens-sensor combo...until I realized that they need CUSTOM SETTINGS (now called Recipes).

I've been testing extremely low budget hybrid cameras like the Panasonic G7, GX85, G85, GX9, G95, GH4 and GH5 and I've discovered they all can produce great video, as long as you use the CUSTOM SETTINGS. After testing, I started taking notes of the settings that worked for each combo, and then made this website, to be able to access all the info, fast.

Thank you for trying these LUTs! It's important to know these LUTs are the #2 step of this method (the CUSTOM SETTINGS are the 1st) and without those...these LUTs don't do much). So remember, use the lens-sensor camera settings while your're shooting and add the appropriate LUT during your post-production.
