S26 Ultra 8K30 LOG Video Test - Coming-of-age LUT

GusB — Thu, 19 Mar 2026 18:06:29 GMT

Whilst it was shot in 8K, Lumafusion can only render to 4K maximum - but 8K isn't only about increasing resolution for fullframe viewing, as you can with 50mp or 200mp photos, you can crop/zoom without losing too much detail (within reason) in post.

There are limitations of 8K; big file sizes, less zoom options whilst recording, and you cant change lenses whilst recording - I believe it's a great option to have, especially if you KNOW you're likely to crop a certain shot.

Anyway, onto LOG and a new LUT, this time 'coming-of-age'

Here's sample that I took today - which are squashed AGAIN by IG and YT😂

Or slightly higher quality

(Same video)

Bear in mind some of that 'washed out' look is from the stylised LUT.

It's fun but also interesting playing around with this.... I'll probably try another LUT tomorrow. Won't be 8K though.

I should do a comparison between them all... That would be better
