Hi Asim, thank you for helping again, hope you’ve been doing well Note: The issues with HLG & Input DRT still apply now as they did when I wrote this 2 years ago. When these HLG profiles are ingested and normalized based on the HLG BT.2100 specification, the footage is incorrectly normalized at lower levels resulting in an overall darkened scene – the gamma curves are simply not the same.įor conforming HLG BT.2100 footage in Resolve, please have a read:

Whilst the HLG3 profile is practically the same as HLG BT.2100 (which means that a standard HLG BT.2100 profile can be used for footage normalization), the HLG2 and HLG1 profiles are not standard as they’re limited to 95% and 87% of the full signal level respectively. Could that be why they look off? If yes what is the correct way of making them look natural?

Google says it is Sony’s “extension” of Rec.709. And last, but not least, for set of files taken using Sony’s ‘creative styles’ (which look off to my eyes once imported into Resolve or played with other players) Sony’s metadata XML says they are:

Does metadata that says file has BT.709 primaries mean this is just look Sony has baked in within Rec709 color space even though Sony in A6600’s manual bundles it together with Rec709, Rec2020 and other color spaces under ‘Color Modes’ section? For set of files taken with ‘Pro color mode’ and Cine2 gamma Sony’s metadata XML says they are:ĭoes this confirm I should use Rec709 as input gamma when file has been created using Sony’s Cine2 gamma?Īlso, what in the world is ‘Pro’ color mode? I am not aware of such color space. So input color space should be, obviously (unless I’m missing something), SGamut3.Cine but what should be input gamma? Resolve doesn’t offer Cine1/2/3/4 gammas and Rec709 value for CodingEquations confuses me, does it mean I should be using Rec709 as input gamma? For set of files taken with ‘picture profiles’ using SGamut3.Cine + Cine1/Cine2/Cine3/Cine4 Sony’s metadata XML says they are (in case of Cine2 gamma): So input space for one recorded with BT2020 HLG should be set to Rec2020, but what should be input gamma, Rec2100 HLG or Rec2100HLG (Scene)? I am guessing Scene one but I’m afraid I could be incorrect due to my lack of knowledge.Īlso, what input gamma should be used for ones recorded with Sony’s HLG1/HLG2/HLG3 settings? Matrix coefficients : BT.2020 non-constant

For set of files taken with ‘picture profiles’ using BT2020 + HLG/HLG1/HLG2/HLG3 Sony’s metadata XML says they are:

In front of me I have number of files that came out of Sony A6600 using various picture profiles and I need to figure out how to correctly select their input color space / gamma in Resolve.
