We’re excited to roll out the biggest update in Gamut history. Our BaseLUTs have long been a cornerstone for filmmakers—built for accurate color, balanced skin-tones, and a solid foundation for grading. Now, they’ve evolved.
What’s New
BaseLUTs 2.0 combines the tactile insights of analog shooting with cutting-edge technology. Over the past six months, we tested nearly 40 cameras in real-world environments to understand how each sensor handles color. Then we trained a machine learning model on our findings to create per-sensor color conversions—making it possible to not only preserve true skin tones and saturated colors, but also to accurately color-match footage across different camera brands and sensors.
Now, you can match a RED Komodo to a Sony FX30 or even a DJI Osmo Pocket 3 seamlessly.
Why This Matters
This new approach means your footage will look consistent no matter what camera you’re using. It’s not just a conversion—it’s a calibrated starting point for every sensor, tailored to the real-world characteristics of each device.
Already Own BaseLUTs?
You’re good—your current BaseLUTs still work as they always have. But moving forward, new BaseLUTs will be built at the sensor level, offering more precision and better cross-camera matching. For instance, if you are using the original BaseLUTs for Canon Log 2 on the Canon R5 vs the new BaseLUTs 2.0, you will notice that the colors and saturation levels are more accurate especially when comparing to other Canon cameras filming in that same profile. We noticed varying differences that are not accounted for in our original BaseLUTs or Color Space Transforms. These new BaseLUTs will be the most color accurate conversions available on the market because of their attention to each camera at the sensor level. We have also fine-tuned the Tone Mapping of each BaseLUT to better handle highly saturated colors and reduce any color clamping or clipping for Display Referred workflows.
FAQs
Q: Do I need to upgrade my old BaseLUTs?
A: Not at all. They still work great. But the new versions offer better matching between different cameras and more accurate starting points. There is also more support for newer cameras which means the new BaseLUTs will better match across the wide spectrum of cameras on the market.
Q: How is BaseLUTs 2.0 different from previous versions?
A: BaseLUTs 2.0 are built on sensor-specific calibrations using real-world data and machine learning—giving you more accurate color matching and consistency across different camera systems. For instance, if you are using the original BaseLUTs for Canon Log 3 on the Canon R5 and on the Canon C70, you will notice that the colors and saturation levels are more pronounced on the R5 making the two cameras not match as well. With the new BaseLUTs, we take care of those differences and adjust the LUTs accordingly so you get a more accurate match between cameras.
Q: What cameras are currently supported?
A: We’ve calibrated over 40 cameras so far, including RED, Sony, Canon, Fuji, Panasonic, Blackmagic, and DJI models. A full list will be available on the product page.
Q: Can I use BaseLUTs 2.0 for live monitoring on set?
A: Yes. These LUTs are built with monitoring and post-production workflows in mind.
Q: Will new BaseLUTs be free for existing customers?
A: While they are a new product, we’re offering a 30% discount to returning customers. Included in the new products, you will also receive a Bold version of the BaseLUT along with the highly requested DaVinci Wide Gamut version. So those that choose to work in a DWG pipeline, you can use our BaseLUTs in place of Color Space Transforms that will be even more accurate than what DaVinci Resolve offers natively.
Q: Will you keep adding new cameras?
A: Absolutely. As new models are released, we’ll continue updating the system to support them. We will provide a roadmap of requested camera support on our website where you can also provide your requested camera of choice
