CDL

The Color Decision List (CDL) allows you define the look of the camera's colors in your project.

Use the CDL menu to:

Enable the CDLs

Configure CDL Power

Configure CDL Slope

Configure CDL Offset

Configure CDL Saturation

MANAGE CDLS

Use the CDLs menu to import and export CDLs.

CDLs can be stored on the camera or transferred to media to be shared with other cameras. When exporting CDLs from

camera to media, the CDLs are saved to a folder on the media called “cdls”. When importing CDLs from media to the

camera, the CDLs must be stored on the media in a folder called “cdls.”

NOTE: When you record with a CDL, the camera automatically saves the CDL together with the clip.

To export selected CDLs from the camera to the media, refer to the In Camera CDLs section.

To import selected CDLs from the media to the camera, refer to the On Media CDL section.

CDL OVERVIEW

A Color Decision List (CDL) is a metadata file format developed by the American Society of Cinematographers (ASC) to

exchange standard color correction information between post production tools. This non-destructive color adjustment

layer simplifies the versioning of looks by updating simple metadata without the need to re-transfer the image data.

CDLs are very common in VFX workflows because the VFX artist needs both the ungraded shot and the intended look.

The ungraded shot allows the artist to comp in truly linear light, and the intended look is needed to confirm that the

individual plates still hold together after the grade is applied.
