Alexa Log C - green cast

[Daniel Singer]

Hello,

 

a few days ago I made some tests with the Alexa. I recorded all the material in Log C ProRes 4444 AND in Rec 709 to be able to campare it. I used a KinoFlo with Daylight bulbs and the white balance on the Alexa was set to 5600°K.

After using a LUT to transfer the Log C material to Rec 709, I found out that all the Log C material had a green cast on it. Have you also made this experience?

 

I also did a few pure Daylight tests with a Schneider ND1,2 filter and found out that after converting my Log C material to Rec 709 with a LUT, the material had an even more visible green cast on it. Is this a normal fact??

 

Thanks,

Daniel
