TVLogic IS-mini 4K Real-Time Digital Color Processor LUT Box

OVERVIEW

• Apply 3D LUTs to 4K Images via 12G-SDI
• Includes WonderLookPro Color MGT Program
• Grade Images Live or Save Looks for Post
• Load and Tweak LUTs from Resolve, Etc.

The IS-mini 4K from TVLogic allows you to apply 3D LUTs to 4K images via 12G-SDI connections. It comes with the WonderLookPro color management software (free download for Mac/Windows), and together with the software allows you to grade an image live as well as save a look for use in post-production so it matches what you saw on the set. The IS-mini 4K connects to your camera, monitor, and computer via its array of SDI, HDMI, USB, and LAN connections.

You can also load LUTs into WonderLookPro from applications such as DaVinci Resolve, and then tweak them. At the time of this writing, a capture function is expected via a firmware update planned for the end of December 2020. With this function, you'll also be able to capture live frame images with WonderLookPro from cameras and other signals.

Operational functions include normal processing, color patch generation, frame image display, chroma key compositing, and animation overlay. The included WonderLookPro also supports optional Tangent control panels via the USB interface for efficient on-set grading.

4K HDR Live Production

IS-mini 4K comes with the WonderLookPro color management software. Together, the two allow you to produce live events with multiple cameras, especially when the cameras have different sensors and therefore different color looks. Multiple IS-mini 4K units can be deployed and all connected to the control computer, with WonderLookPro connected over Ethernet. With WonderLookPro you can control more than 100 IS-mini 4K units from one computer. Every IS-mini 4K will be set to proper camera IDT, eliminating the difference between cameras, and you can apply your original look to all the cameras.

4K Color Space Conversion

WonderLookPro can create and transmit all the important color standards for TV and Cinema to the IS-mini 4K. Real-time color conversion includes SDR-to-HDR, HDR-to-SDR, or Camera Log-to-SDR/HDR.

Monitor Calibration for Consumer TV Sets

IS-mini 4K has a color patch generation feature that allows profiling the monitor's colors to make calibrated 3D LUTs accordingly. IS-mini 4K can output an HDMI 2.0 10-bit signal, which means you can calibrate consumer 4K TV sets to 4K HDR color spaces.

4K HDR On-Set Grading

The included WonderLookPro software provides a large database of camera profiles made by actual measurement of color characteristics of professional cameras. Based on this database, any conversion from the camera logs to all standard color formats, including SDR (HD/UHD), DCI, and HDR (PQ/HLG), can be easily made with several mouse clicks.

At the time of this writing, a live frame capture function is expected via a firmware update planned for the end of December 2020. Captured frame images and created LUTs can be saved and sent to post-production for fast and easy application of the LUTs.
