"Straight Out of Camera – Show Off Your Real-Time LUT Shots!"

I've recently been experimenting more with the Real-Time LUT feature on my camera, trying to make the most of it and relying more on straight-out-of-camera JPEGs. I'm curious—are there others here who use this feature as well? If so, I'd love to see your results!

Tonight, I came across an inspiring example from Richard Wong, who uploaded a video about cinematic photography. He showcased a stunning series of photos, all captured using Real-Time LUTs, proving just how powerful this feature can be.

So, let’s see your shots! Share your best Real-Time LUT images straight out of the camera.
 
I played around with LUTs on photos when I first got my S9 but haven't persisted with it as I quite like processing raw files.

But it's a great idea and if time permits, I will give this another try.
 
Last week, we had a short family holiday—the perfect opportunity to try out the real-time LUT function on my camera (still a weird name, by the way). I combined two LUTs to create a style I liked and used it throughout the week. In this picture, my eldest son Bram grabbed my iPhone to play some Roblox, but first, he had to check out my approval

I have not got into the Real-Time-Lut capability yet, but I am anxious to see what others have done, to get inspiration. I like the concept. A problem I had, there are SO many Luts available now, I don't know how to choose one over the other. Are there some you recommend? I would especially like some cinematic looks.
 
Also looking forward to what people post here! I admit having a hard time seeing myself using LUTs because I have a hard time picturing a single look I’d want to apply to a batch of photos in a shoot; I always end up tailoring the PP to the subject and setting.

I also don’t play around much with filters; On1 has a whole bunch of them, and I play with them occasionally, but generally I just prefer the best realistic version of what I remember seeing. So looking forward to seeing people get creative, for inspiration. :)
 
I am usually a RAW shooter but i also love shoot in JPG sometimes and try to get it right in camera without doing any editing. It's a different kind of fun/challenge
Here are some photos I shot one afternoon/evening with the S1RII, all are SOOC JPG using Real Time LUT. LUT is Autumn that I grabbed from Lumix Lab app.
All photos were shot handheld including the photos shot at 2 seconds shutter speed. I was amazed how easy it was to get sharp photo at 2-second shutter speed without having to lean on anything.

I like to use LUTs a lot, although sometimes I find it difficult to choose.
So far I've only used some from the Lumix Lab app.
I would like to see the name of the LUTs used saved in the metadata, as I often try different ones and then have no idea which image was taken with which LUT.

These are just a few snapshots with the S9 across the room in dim light with the LUMIX 18-40mm lens which is slow, so ISO was high.

The first shot is SOOC jpeg.

The second is the same jpeg with LUT applied in LUMIX Lab and cropped square. I can't remember the LUT name, will have to look it up but had something to do with 'blue sapphire' and I liked what it did to the photo!

Both images linked on Flickr which I am having some trouble with, so I hope it works.

Panasonic DC-S9, LUMIX S 18-40/F4.5-6.3, ƒ/6.3, 40mm, 1/25s, ISO6400

I just looked up the LUT that I used. It was named "Rustic Sapphire" and was created by Dustin Armstrong.
