    I've got the recent FX6 UPDATE - Sony A7SIII, A7IV, FX3 and FX6 to Alexa PowerGrade and LUT (May 21, 2025). Let me know if y'all would be interested and can share it here.

    "21.05.2025

    New PowerGrades and LUTs made specifically for the FX6. They produce substantially better results than then the original Sony2Alexa transform.

    Updated the RCM V1.1 PowerGrades for the A7IV and FX3/A7SIII. Created with a new method that will produce slightly more accurate results.

    Added a new version of the ARRI Rec709 LUT – ARRI_LogC2Video_709_V3.cube. It features slightly more contrast than V2. And slightly less saturation in the highlights which should result in more natural skin tones.

    Updated the in-camera and Post Production LUTs to include the new Rec709 V3 transform."

    Thanks for the share. Did this come with an instructional pdf or something? It's tough to know what's what. The file organization (or lack thereof, I should say) and some of his naming conventions are wildly confusing. There's no indication of the difference between some of the 709 luts, for instance, and there are LogC to 709 luts thrown in with slog to logC 709 luts. And there are camera specific luts for which it's unclear if they're to be used as a one stop shop, or as just part of the signal chain. It almost seems as if there are multiple versions of these thrown together into one pack.

    You're welcome! According to Juan Melara’s site, the pack includes separate camera-match LUTs (Sony → Alexa) and output-transform LUTs (LogC → Rec709). They’re meant to be used together, not as one-step LUTs. The confusion comes from multiple curve versions (Standard, V2, V3, WDR) and camera-specific files. There’s an Installation and Usage Instructions page on the site that clarifies workflow and naming.

    Gotcha, thanks. I hadn't stumbled across that page previously.
