We’re excited to announce the latest addition to the Editors Keys colour grading collection: 8 Vintage Film LUTs for Panasonic V-Log. Created specifically for creators shooting V-Log on Panasonic Lumix cameras, this new collection makes it easier to transform flat log footage into rich, cinematic colour without spending hours building a look from scratch.
Shooting in V-Log gives filmmakers and content creators much more flexibility in post-production. By preserving a wide dynamic range, V-Log provides plenty of information to work with when adjusting exposure, highlights, shadows and colour. However, the trade-off is that ungraded V-Log footage can look noticeably flat, desaturated and lacking in contrast. That is completely normal for log footage, but it means some colour work is required before your footage looks the way you intended.
Our new V-Log LUT collection provides a simple way to take that flat starting point and introduce a distinctive film-inspired aesthetic. Each LUT has been carefully tuned for Panasonic V-Log, helping you get consistent results while giving you plenty of room to make your own creative adjustments.
Eight Film-Inspired Looks for Panasonic V-Log
The collection includes eight premium LUTs, giving you a range of different looks for different types of projects. Whether you're creating cinematic B-roll, a travel film, a music video, a short film or content for YouTube, there is a look designed to give your footage more character.
Cinema 1978 delivers warm, golden tones inspired by the distinctive appearance of 1970s film, making it particularly effective for outdoor footage and nostalgic scenes. Dust & Grain takes a softer, more faded approach, introducing a textured vintage aesthetic that works well when you want your footage to feel less digitally perfect.
For a clean starting point, Log to Rec.709 provides a natural conversion from V-Log into a conventional Rec.709 image. This can be used as a straightforward correction before you begin grading manually, or as the foundation for one of the creative looks.
For darker and more atmospheric projects, Midnight Film introduces moody cinematic tones that work particularly well with night scenes and low-light footage. Retro Noir takes this further with deeper contrast and a dramatic, shadow-heavy aesthetic inspired by classic noir cinema.
If you prefer something more subtle, Old Money offers muted, refined and understated tones, creating a timeless look without heavily stylising the image. Velvet Vintage introduces softer, richer colours with a warm vintage glow, while The Film Collection provides a versatile all-round film aesthetic that can work across a wide variety of footage.
Built Specifically for Panasonic V-Log
One of the key benefits of this collection is that these aren't generic LUTs designed to work with any camera profile. They have been hand-tuned specifically for Panasonic's V-Log profile, helping them work effectively with the colour and tonal characteristics of V-Log footage.
This is particularly useful if you regularly shoot V-Log on a Panasonic Lumix camera and want a more predictable grading workflow. Instead of applying a random creative LUT and then spending time correcting unwanted colour shifts, you have a collection designed around the footage you're actually working with.
For the best results, we recommend balancing your footage first. Correct exposure and white balance where necessary, then apply the LUT and adjust its intensity to suit the individual shot. A LUT should be treated as a starting point for your creative grade rather than a replacement for good colour correction.
A Faster Colour Grading Workflow
Colour grading can be one of the most time-consuming parts of video editing, particularly when you're working with large amounts of footage. While there is nothing wrong with creating a completely bespoke grade for every project, having a collection of reliable starting points can dramatically speed up the process.
With the Editors Keys Panasonic V-Log LUTs, you can quickly audition different film looks, choose the one that suits your project and then fine-tune the result. This can help maintain a more consistent visual style across multiple clips while reducing the amount of trial and error involved in creating your grade. The LUTs are also beginner-friendly, so you don't need advanced colour grading experience to start experimenting with them. More experienced editors can use them as a foundation and continue shaping the image with their usual grading tools.
Compatible With Popular Editing Software
The LUTs are designed to fit easily into a modern video editing workflow and are compatible with Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve, CapCut and LumaFusion. Once imported into your chosen software, you can apply the LUT to your V-Log footage and adjust its strength or combine it with your existing colour correction and grading tools.
This makes the collection suitable for a wide range of creators, from professional filmmakers and freelance videographers to YouTubers, musicians and anyone using a Panasonic Lumix camera to produce cinematic content.
Give Your Lumix Footage More Character
The advantage of shooting V-Log is the creative flexibility it gives you in post-production. The challenge is turning that flexible but flat starting point into an image that actually has personality. The new Editors Keys 8 Vintage Film LUTs for Panasonic V-Log are designed to make that process faster and more accessible.
With a dedicated Log-to-Rec.709 conversion and seven creative film-inspired looks, you can experiment with everything from warm 1970s colour and faded vintage tones to cinematic midnight shadows, classic noir contrast and refined, muted colour.
Whether you're shooting a short film, music video, travel project, YouTube content or cinematic B-roll, these LUTs give you a fast way to move beyond the flat appearance of ungraded V-Log and create footage with a distinctive, timeless film character.
