Genesis Display Processor - GDP
The Panavision® Genesis Display Processor helps bridge the gap between production and post production, enabling better on-set visualization by applying preset or user-defined look up tables (LUTs) to the displayed image from any HDSDI output. For example it enables the DP to correct the raw log camera output or emulate a film stock or post process. The changes to the viewed image are not recorded or embedded in the recorded image so the original “camera negative” remains intact. With the connection of a separate recorder, the image can be recorded, allowing for dailies viewing. Any custom LUTs can be exported as files and sent to post production.
The GDP facilitates on-set color management decisions by allowing log material to be viewed correctly on a Rec709 monitor. It supports many common import and export formats such as
.acv, .a3d, .lut, .csv, and .txt. Its native LUT format is .gbf. Key features include a wipe function between input and LUT corrected image, two sets of adjustable frame lines with masks plus preset frame lines for 1.33, 1.85, and 2.40. It also has single and dual-link HDSDI inputs and outputs, 4:2:2 or 4:4:4 input/output, including cross conversion, histogram and RGB analysis tools, DPX file upload for use as a reference frame, scratchpad for LUT experimentation and frame capture and download to a dpx file.
With the connection of a Mac or PC via Ethernet, LUTs can be created or manipulated using familiar toolsets such as curves and RGB gains, peds and saturation.
Panavision Image Processor - PIP
The Panavision® Image Processor is a rack-mounted version of the Genesis Display Processor (GDP). It helps bridge the gap between production and post production, enabling better on-set visualization by applying preset or user-defined look up tables (LUTs) to the displayed image from any HDSDI output.
