@alcomposer Panasonic hates the environment.

@discomandavis it would be even quicker to email! I wonder how many carbon emissions would have been generated by sending a serial number? Or at least saved our time waiting, we could all already have it now. Time is most probably worth more in long run- it is the only thing we really have.
@shian I bought the ColorGear Pro (Plus?) package from you. Nice stuff! Really hope for a guide/new LUTs for this new firmware and V Log thingy
But in all reality, what does it take to print a generated number, and mail it?
Has anyone got an idea why the 2.3 firmware is out- but the v-log code cards haven't shipped!? Maybe they are still being printed? Most probably last minute decision to charge for vlog.
@estarkey7, thanks for the info. The GH4 have 10 stops?
BMPCC has 13 stops of DR and this gives you 12, so depending on what you are shooting and how you record, it should be comparable.
I cant read all here, but I have a simple question; with V-LOG the GH4 can get a look near to Black Magic?
Cineon looks pretty good. S Log isn't great. I'd rather skin shift toward pink than green.
How does resolve kodak lut work with vlog footage.
I agree with shian on this one. It does "suck", from what I have been able to test (which is driftwoods samples, and a couple of other samples people have posted, not any charts), I have had much better luck with arri's lut than varicam's lut. obviously LUTs are mostly for shooting, dailies, and for offline footage for editing. Some colorists will use it as a starting point. Varicams lut gives off funky skin tones, and still looks faded, like it hasn't properly mapped the gamma curve
Cineon is better, s-log is better, I'll likely create a few different options for those who are dissatisfied with the V-log to 709
The Varicam LUT is a tad bit too magenta, but it's alot better than the Alexa LOG to REC709 LUT. Still haven't seen a better option.
ask BMD users what they hate about BMD's stock interpretation LUT... It doesn't do a very good job interpreting the log ProRes data into something that is truly ready for grading... same here.
@shian what sucks about it?
it's the same as the Varicam35 LUT, and it kinda sucks
After seeing the LUT applied to two of Nick Driftwoods sample clips, I Feel like I was on the right track with my grade:
Here are two screen grabs of clips of my grades of Nick Driftwood footage and the curves I used in Avid Media Composer 5.5.5,and a screen grab of the same video clip with just the Vlog L to gh4 LUT applied in Adobe premiere pro CC.

That's great. Could have used it last night. Makes it easier for the next time.
@Matthere Was there a list of changes posted?
Stupid typo.. unfortunately, although apart from the activate stuff there is no sign of v-log at all, so could be linked with the $ spend?
I do like the new Fn1 exit from timelapse function - useful :)
I haven't updated yet- can anyone verify 200mbps 4k capture? Or was that stupid typo?
