LOOK
The Look menu permits adjustment of Color, Gain, FLUT
®
, Curves, Color/Gamma, and Color Temperature meta-
data values. These parameters will affect the look of the monitor path, but do not affect the actual REDCODE
RAW data being recorded.
COLOR
You can adjust the following:
Saturation
: Adjusts color saturation. Range is 0.0 (monochrome) to 4.0 (super color). Default is 1.0.
Contrast
: Adjusts the overall contrast of the image. Range is -1.0 (flat) to 1.0 (max contrast). Default is 0.0.
Brightness
: Adjusts brightness without crushing highlights. Available range is -10.0 to 10.0. Default is 0.0.
Exposure
: Adjusts exposure compensation. Available range is -7.0 to 7.0. Default is 0.0.
GAIN
You can adjust the Red channel, Blue channel, and Green channel individually. The range for each is 0.0 (none
of the color) to 10.0, and the default for each is 1.0.
FLUT
You can adjust the following:
ISO (Native)
: Adjusts the camera’s native ISO value. RED recommends that you set the ISO near 800, then
adjust the lens T-stop and lighting or ND filters to match. The ISO can later be adjusted around one stop
for fine-tuning. Range is ISO 250–12,800. Default is ISO 800.
FLUT
: FLUT (Floating Point Lookup Table) adjusts mid-range tone values. Range -8.0 to 8.0. Default is 0.0.
Shadow
: Adjusts the toe value of the FLUT, or in other words, the tone near Black. Range is -2.0 to 2.0.
Default is 0.0. Increasing the Shadow value raises the video level of near Blacks. Lowering the Shadow
value crushes the video level of near Blacks.
CURVES
You can define the curves for the Luma, Red, Green, and Blue channels.
Select
Reset Curve
to reset the currently selected curve.
COLOR/GAMMA
You can adjust the monitor output Color Space and Gamma curves. RED recommends using the most recently
released Color Space and Gamma settings, and use legacy settings (such as REDcolor2) only if you need to
record footage to match footage that you recorded with that legacy setting.
For more information about RED gamma settings, check out the
Understanding REDlogFilm and REDgamma
article available at
www.red.com/learn/red-101/redlogfilm-redgamma
.
COLOR TEMPERATURE
Select a color temperature. The range is 1700 to 10,000 KELVIN, and the default is 5600 KELVIN.
TINT
Color temperature calculations assume a pure light source that may not be true in the specific scene the cam-
era is imaging. To compensate for any residual colorcast, the Tint parameter adjusts the RGB color balance
with a compensating magenta-green color component. Tint range is -100 to 100, with a default of 0.000.
NOTE:
Selecting Auto White Balance calculates a new Tint value. This value doesn’t change if you adjust the
color temperature manually. If you select any preset, Tint will be reset to 0.000.
