    Sage got a reaction from PannySVHS in GH5 to Alexa Conversion   
    The V4 email should be out to everyone; if you haven't received it please let me know. A month ago, my father was diagnosed with advanced colon cancer at the same time that the virus situation was taking off, and life was thrown into disarray. March is colon cancer awareness month, and we are aware now (get screened every 10 years, starting at 50)
    The GH5S is, at last, supported. V4:
     
    Emotive Color Component ('EC709')
    - Remade in 'HDR', preserving intense values (exceeding 0.0-1.0), that are incorporated into final Rec709 envelope
    - Using the new engine, Arri Rec709 primaries are recreated at lower saturation, while 'projecting' this primary behavior to HDR gamut extents (beyond Arri Rec709 gamut clipping)
    - Raised highlight ceiling for Main (average between Soft and Linear)
    - Significantly refined saturation envelope for Main and Linear (& Soft, to a lesser extent)
     
    Core LogC
    - Remade with new engine (Incorporates initial baseline HSL conform)
    - Fixed chart scan error that added 1/18th incorrect neighboring sample value to each sample average (hidden mistake in my very earliest code)
       (Corrects for persistent slight inaccuracies despite multipass, such as magenta bias of shadow skin tone in Tungsten)
    - Fully linearized highlight rolloff (true to LogC) with maximal detail retention (effective highlight DR increase)
    - New smoothing algorithm (incorporated into engine) - 12 passes, combining two hue-aware algorithms for new smoothness standard while preserving hue lines
    - Most extreme gamut is now directly measured and preserved (i.e. colored Leds in night environments)
     
    Misc.
    - Added Exposure Compensation [PRE]s - actual exposure color conversions for use ahead of the conversion (interpolated from sample data, incorporating rolloff)
    - Added Auto Black Level POSTs - for use following the conversion; quickly conform black level in any NLE 
       (No accompanying relative hue/saturation distortion whatsoever, unlike standard luma tools)
    - Remade all PREs with new engine, taking new NLE measurements to accommodate NLE profile rendition shifts since original release
    - Direct monitoring variations included for HLG and Cine-D, and VLog external monitoring variation (includes levels fix)
    - Rewrite of Pdf (for Gen.4)
    - Direct FCPX support added (with distinct PREs and Pdf)
    - Significantly more efficient file sizes
    - 16 bit Gradient Chart included to test smoothness of theoretical & far gamut, and reveal pipeline banding issues
    - Each file is now unique to its owner at coordinate level

    XT3 is in the plans, indeed. At this moment, its down to documenting the process of adding a camera to the server, and then streamlining the Pdf writing process as best I can (later today). This will make a camera cycle as efficient as possible.
    From the LogC alone, V4 isn't that different from V3 for the average image. When saturation becomes more extreme, V4 is quite a bit better (much, much more accurate to Alexa). And when using V4 on unintended formats (i.e. Rec709 footage), V4 holds up, while V3 doesn't. Here is a comparison with one of the more saturated images I've got (most notable shift), using Soft (most equivalent variation between 3 & 4):

    Really sorry to hear about your father. I'll be sending my positive energy from here. Take your time and focus on what's most important!
     
    V4 is really good to use, and the new exposure pres and ABL posts are definitely the final touch to an amazing package you put together with Emotive Color. 
     
    About the BT709 LUT, I can't seem to find FLog color space in the Color Space Transform, only the FLog gamma seems to be there, that's why I decided to try out the BT709 lut and leaving Rec709 as the input color space.
     
    Take care!

    I hope your father can defeat the cancer @Sage. I have experienced a similar situation with my father (throat cancer) one year ago...they had to cut his vocal chords (translation from google) and now his voice is something like the Donald Duck...but he is fine and he was not a singer or something that needs his voice...so we are very happy and we hope that cancer never appears again (this is the most important thing).
    Anyway...congrats four your good job on the gh5 alexa conversion, surely I will try it in the future (now, with all my currents and future jobs cancelled and with no idea of when I could work again, I should not spend money but only on what is necessary).

    I hope 8K RAW will have a burst mode for 4 seconds. Why? Stills. Will be great to select the best shot from 120 frames
    I can't see myself using it for video as much as 4K RAW on the EOS R6, or the sure to be lovely 10bit Canon LOG. Much more practical.
    By the way Panasonic has something coming which will impress a lot of you. Stay tuned for a few more days.

    Just seeing this now; my work happened to have both a 16gb SxS and an SD SxS adapter for use in the EX1. So a year back, I did test them out, and found it did not work. I had assumed my Sandisk Extremes would be better than the SxS, but the Arri is very picky; everything is very locked down. For example, I wanted to look into Arriraw and thought maybe a Shogun might do. But with the Classic, only the Odyssey 7Q with raw license would do (because of the proprietary T-Link standard)

    Hmm, that's a strange one. When a bug like this happens at project level, I often start a new project and import everything. One can export the timeline when it is highlighted in the project bin, through File > Export AAF, XML. That will often strip the timeline of project level bugs when re-importing to a new project.
    And, place the whole EC folder into the Resolve folder, and refresh in Resolve (as compared to a single cube, etc). This way, you can have the ABLs and Exps in folder order right next to the conversions. Here's -.66 + Day Lin + Abl2:
