  Vegas Sony Slog3 LUT vs SONY LUT vc ACES - strong differences.

  RE: Vegas 22 Pro - HDR still unusable (for me)
  I am coming to the conclusion that HDR on iPhone is just best avoided! Maybe more because of the blocking and HLG as aquisition format. ACES color space: Default (ACES2065-1) This mode is still a questionmark at the moment.

  That is concerning. Was the HEVC rendered in VP 22 or 20? Are you on build 194 of 22? What are your project settings- are you in 32-bit mode (ACES?) or 8-bit full? In a quick test using color gradients generated in VEGAS, a photo test image and a

  @jetdv That appears to be correct. An Aside It appears that Classic Paint in Windows 11 adds the Color Space parameter where none existed before: That's probably why it always seemed to fix the problem.
