Interesting G9 II findings by Robin Wong

[Andrew Reid]

The gap between APS-C and Micro Four Thirds has turned into an advantage to Micro Four Thirds with the G9 II

And the gap between the G9 II and full frame is very small.

Impressive little camera.

I don't quite understand, but I have the impression that it's impossible to shoot in log without baking the display LUT? Less interesting.

I think Sony allows it.

Just a note for @Andrew Reid: that's Richard Wong, not Robin Wong... I know, both review M43 cameras.

I'll repeat my question; my English is poor.

With a monitoring LUT V-Log to Rec 709, it's impossible for me to film in Log without recovering the LUT when recording with the Lumix G9 MKII ?

Is it possible to record only Log without the LUT with the G9 MKII ? And how? I haven't found it.

Thank you very much.

Turn the Real Time LUT feature off to not bake it in.

Thank you 

But I know this video,  it doesn't prove that with the Lut on, the log is recorded in log format.

I don't think you've tested this setting yourself, because that's what I do:
- either the Lut is applied on the monitor and it's also recorded.
- either the Lut is off, and a log is recorded, but you can't monitor your exposure in Rec 709.

Is it strange that no one noticed this ?!

The question you asked was

“Is it possible to record only Log without the LUT with the G9 MKII ? And how? I haven't found it.”

That was the question I was answering.

The question you should’ve been asking was if it was possible to record Log without the LUT whilst using a monitoring LUT.

For that you need to use the view assist.

Thank you very much , you helped me a lot.
