While these settings create A GOOD STARTING POINT, they do need a LUT (on my website) to perfect the shots. What I did with the settings was I added +3 SHADOWS (by creating a custom curve within the "Highlight Shadow" menu) and this is very important, in addition to the adjustments to the "Photo Style" settings (adjustments to CONTRAST, SHARPNESS, NOISE and COLOR). |
(None) | Sigma 18-35 1.8 | Panasonic G85 | Natural | I wanted the Sigma 18-35 1.8 for quite a long time, but after testing it (this time with a speed booster, instead using the shift adapter). Even with the .71x speed booster/focal reducer, it isn't wide enough for a lot of situations, and because it doesn't need the 1.8 max. aperture OUTDOORS, I'm not sure I recommend this. It's also too big and heavy for my DUAL-CAMERA RIGS. |
(None) | Nikon 18-55 | Panasonic G7 | CineLike D | Test looks decent (so far) but I need more sample footage to get a better feel for this lens-sensor combo. |
(None) | Nikon 18-55 | Panasonic GX85 | Natural |
NOTE:
For use with ATEM Mini, I'm adjusting the settings slightly:
CONTRAST: -5
SHARPNESS: -5
NOISE: +3
COLOR: -0
HIGHLIGHT SHADOW: OFF |
(None) | Panasonic 45-150 4-5.6 | Panasonic GH4 | Natural | Initial tests good. Starting to test filters... |
(None) | Panasonic 25 1.7 | Panasonic GH4 NO LUT | CineLike D | Test (v2) looks good (almost good enough with no LUT, but could use a bit more contrast for FINAL). |
(None) | Promaster 70-300 4-5.6 | Panasonic GH4 | Natural | Initial test done, but need more footage... |
(None) | Minolta AF 50 1.7 ii | Panasonic GH4 | [NEW] |

The goal of our camera settings is to improve what we call the "lens-sensor relationship" by adjusting the contrast, sharpness, noise reduction and color to create an image that looks less digital and more organic (more like film, etc). Therefore, the first step is to apply the custom settings while shooting, and the second is to add a lens-sensor LUT, to finalize the image.
