Control Gamut
SONARA output gamut can be either full gamut or restricted to match REC 709 or REC 2020. Due to the different overlaps
of the gamuts, selecting REC 709 or REC 2020 will restrict some of SONARA’s output in certain zones. For example, as can
be seen in the illustration below, SONARA is capable of producing a range of colours in the yellow and deep amber zone that
wouldn’t be captured in REC 709. In x y mode with REC 709 as the selected gamut, SONARA would not output a colour at
those x y coordinates, which would be shown in a red font on the display.
In CCT, HSI, ALB, or GEL mode, if the colour is unachievable due to the chosen gamut, the colour produced will be
desaturated into the selected white point.
Control Camera LUTs
Camera LUTs change both the x y coordinate and spectral mix of whites to match the colour science of various cameras. An
image photographed under the same light source will look different on different cameras. The camera LUTs are intended to
bring alignment to the same subject shot with different cameras.
