Panasonic DMW-SFU3A Overview

Match ARRI cinema camera looks when using your Panasonic Lumix GH7 or GH6 camera using this DMW-SFU3A Lumix ARRI LogC3 Upgrade Software Key. This code unlocks a range of advanced video functions to further expand on the impressive video performance of your GH7 or GH6 mirrorless camera. It is ideal for those using a GH7 or GH6 mirrorless camera as a B-cam or gimbal/drone camera with a main cinema camera such as the ARRI ALEXA Mini.

Once installed, your camera will have a choice of over 80 ARRI looks, which can be previewed on the ARRI website using their Look Library simulator. The look can be applied as a LUT, which can work within SDR and HDR color spaces. On the GH7, it can be used with the Real-Time LUT function to apply the LUT while outputting live video.

A Wide Variety of ARRI Looks
Now, video shot with Lumix GH7 in ARRI LogC3 can easily be converted to your favorite ARRI look. The ARRI Look Library contains 80+ high-quality ARRI Looks to choose from, and in the ARRI Look Library simulator (available online at the ARRI website), you can easily check the ARRI Look File that best fits your shooting style and scenario.
Real-Time LUT Function
It is possible to store the LUT package for Rec709 conversion (ARRI Look Library LogC3 to Rec709 3D-LUTs) in the LUT Library of the Lumix GH7 and combine it with the Real-Time LUT function to capture videos with ARRI LUTs straight out of the camera.
Production Workflow
Using the ARRI Look Library (log-to-log), you can color grade videos recorded with ARRI LogC3 and apply the desired ARRI Look within the log space. By using the LUT package (ARRI_LogC3_v1-2_LUT_Package downloadable from the ARRI website) you can convert the color space of various display devices, allowing you to output the ARRI Look according to the desired color space in SDR and HDR.
Combine with ARRI Digital Cinema Cameras
Shooting in ARRI LogC3 on the Lumix GH7 is a perfect solution for situations that require added flexibility, such as mounting on a gimbal or drone or matching a B-camera. The Lumix GH7 can easily match colors in shooting situations where cinema cameras, such as the ARRI ALEXA Mini, are used as the main camera. The ARRI LogC3 license employs a curve that conforms to the standard sensitivity of ISO 800 of the ARRI camera. As the gamma curve does not change depending on the ISO sensitivity, users can use the same editing workflow no matter which ISO they shoot at. It also enables recording at ISO Auto, which is unique to mirrorless cameras.
Compatibility with GH6
ARRI LogC3 recording can also be used on the Lumix GH6 in the same way as the Lumix GH7 by using the Software Upgrade Key DMW-SFU3A, with the exception of the Real-Time LUT function, which is not available on the GH6.

Yes!

Yep. The second they released this software key for the S1ii we were in. We bought 2 for our two S1ii's. Is it worth it? Well that depends on if you like Arri colors or not. I've heard that people do. VLOG is fine, but we've always felt like there something a little bit to be desired despite owning all of the major vlog LUT packages. The Arri lut delivers exactly what we're looking for in camera. And the camera can record prores internally? We effectively have an Alexa with great autofocus and IBIS in the S1ii. Dynamic range may be a bit less but if you know how to shoot you can make magic.

Worthwhile
