For years, I searched for the perfect lens-sensor combination; a lens and camera duo that would produce a beautiful image with few adjustments and little post processing. It would look "REAL" straight out of camera, and be everything I needed and wanted in a camera system. However, as I tested each pair, they all told a different story, and would deliver light to the sensor differently. So, I began tweaking settings, jotting down notes (on index cards) for each lens-sensor combination I tried...and then finally made this website.

These are the CAMERAS I've tested. I started out using extremely low budget filmmaking cameras like the Panasonic GH2, G5, G7, GH4, GX85 and G85, and realized they could produce really good footage, as long as you found the "sweet spot" in each lens-sensor combo. So, I began taking notes of my CUSTOM CAMERA SETTINGS for each lens I tested...and then created this website, to access the information fast, while on-location.

Thank you for trying these LUTs! It's super important to know, that these LUTs are the SECOND step of this method, and without our CAMERA SETTINGS, these Lens-Sensor LUTs won't do much). Our goal for "Lens-Sensor LUTs" was to get the most out of our budget lenses & cameras, by customizing the settings (& LUTs) to every combination. So remember, you absolutely must use the lens-sensor camera settings while shooting, then add the LUT in post.

These are real, long-term reviews of gear I actually use. Keep in mind these reviews are just my opinion, and are not supposed to be comprehensive or the final say about these products. These are mostly to help me remember what items worked for me, and what didn't. So, the product may work for you and your needs, but it didn't fit within my Q-P-A-C-E system.

One thing to note is, our production methods are somewhat different, as our goal is to create 100% REAL photos & videos (without A.I.). So, we use lens-sensor specific camera settings & LUTs to process each image. We think this renders more realistic images (than using heavy post-processing). The key thing that makes this work is using custom camera settings.

With all of the A.I. and Photoshopping going on, there's certainly enough "FAKE" content out there, so we created a database of realistic-looking looking CAMERA SETTINGS (& LUTs) to help make it easier to capture good photos & video (with very little post-processing) using affordable cameras & lenses.
