A reader over at EOSHD suggested I do a tutorial showing how I shoot and use HLG with the Leeming LUT, so we're at work on it now. Stay tuned!
HLG Rec. 709 with Leeming LUT Tutorial Coming – Eventually!
Leeming LUT v501 for HLG Rocks My World
The all-new Leeming LUT v501 designed for HLG in a rec.709 color gamut is sensational – better than Cinelike D and as good or better than V-Log Lite. I’m at work on a short video right now, will be going to Singapore to pick up the Veydra 16mm on Tuesday, but hopefully will be able to post... Continue Reading →

Lumix G85 Extravaganza Graded With Leeming LUT and Leeming LUT Quickie
I did a quick grade on the clips of the last video I uploaded. Hope you enjoy! https://youtu.be/Z-liz1ZB7qU
Comparison: With and Without the Leeming LUT
I shot a short clip this morning using Cinelike D, exposed normally, imported it into Final Cut, and added the Leeming LUT with a -4 reduction in highlights. Which image has more accurate skin tones, in your opinion? Let me know! (1) SOOC (2) + Leeming LUT
Are Micro Four Thirds Lenses Too Expensive?
https://youtu.be/1C7iIbSPVX4 Additional thoughts: I think by now that everyone is already aware of my aversion to slow, variable aperture universal zooms, and it was disheartening to see just how many who picked up the Lumix GH5 decided to go with one of the slow zooms being peddled by Panasonic reps rather than picking up a...

Lumix G85: Massive Bonus Video
Because the original one was way too dark, I've gone ahead and reuploaded my previous video with comparisons between the Rode VideoMic Pro and the built-in microphone of the Lumix G85, along with some tap to focus tests and more rambling on about exposing to the right. This new video also looks at the RodeLink... Continue Reading →
Rode VideoMic Pro vs. Lumix G85 In-Camera Mic, Tap to Focus and ETTR

One difficulty I ran into is that with the LCD screen swung out to the side and the mic mounted on the hot shoe, it's impossible to... Continue Reading →
The Saigon Central Post Office
The Saigon Central Post Office in all its splendor. I love the natural light in this building. I've got no idea how women can look so impeccable in this sweltering heat. https://youtu.be/MlDFwHFDi6Y
Fuji AF Lenses: Manually Focusing with Fly-By-Wire
A reader over at EOSHD asked what it was like manually focusing with the Fuji AF lenses, so I went ahead and did a quick, highly unscientific test of the five lenses in my possession. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lSK4IRpAXUY
Leeming LUT One
For years, I'd been struggling to get good skin tones and dynamic range from my GH3 and GH4 cameras using the Natural photo style with contrast dialed all the way down and applying LUTs in post. So when I purchased the G85 a few months ago, I decided to give Standard profile a chance, trying... Continue Reading →
