rec709 LUTs - Fuji color profiles

I did some quick reverse engineering of some of the Fuji profiles and created rec709 LUTs that can achieve similar results. No Fuji camera necessary and no need to shoot with a baked-in profile!
Here is an example applied to a clip from A7rII:



Long story short took advantage of the fact that Lightroom allows color profiles to be used with RAW files. Then I computed the three-dimensional affine transformation that can remap the default color space from adobe to any of the Fuji psrofiles.
I can do a much better job if I find color samples that span most of the 3D space. For this I used 4 sample images from dpreview and imaging resource.
The good thing is that I can use the program that I wrote to compute any transformation that is needed. For example S-log/s-gammut to rec709, or slog to clog, rec709Sony to rec709Fuji etc... I only need two images from the two profiles with the same color information such as a colorchecker and of course neutral WB and same exposure.
 You can find the LUTs attached. I hope you enjoy them! Don't forget you can use them on images too with Photoshop...

Lightroom & Skin tones

Many of you will call me crazy, but I got spoiled from the colors (especially the skintones) that I can get from my A7rii in video with the custom profiles. Still profiles in camera just do not have the same customization level as in the video. Even crazier was the fact that I could not get the stills to look as good with Lightroom, unless I spent a significant amount of time fine tuning all different color settings for each picture. While Lightroom offers plenty of controls to mess with color, it still does not give you the full control like 3D LUTs do (check this to see what I mean). Lightroom has some default camera profiles that you can use but none of them really look that good. For example with the A7rii the default Adobe Standard looks washed out and the Camera portrait has Sony's renowned green-yellow skin tones. Then I found out about the  DNG profile editor , which acts like an LUT editor for stills. It is quite straight fo...

A7Rii + M43/Cmount lenses with crop/zoom

Had a couple of m4/3 & c-mount lenses that I decided to test with the A7Rii and its zoom function. Lets first see how the quality of the zoom mode compares to the FF and S35 modes. Test done with FE 55 f/1.8 at 12800 ISO recorded in 4K 100mb/s.   For FF, S35, S35 x1.5 & S35 x2 the fov was matched in camera. The S35 150% & S35 200% were shot at x1.5 & x2 distances respectively and cropped in Premiere. Quality is best with S35 as expected. S35+1.5X and S35 with 150% crop are very close to FF. It appears that the zoom mode works by cropping the S35 and upscaling again to 4K. Then I tested the SLRMagic 25mm and I was delighted to find that it was usable even with X1.1 zoom. A c-mount lens that I had was usable with X1.4 zoom. I was surprised by that since spec wise it was designed for a 2/3" sensor. I really liked the hexagonal blur plus it focuses at 10cm! So there you go folks. If you have the A7rii and any manual m4/3 or c-mount len...
