Loading 3D LUTs using Blackmagic SmartView Setup
SmartView 4K lets you monitor your video using 3D LUTs. This gives you the option to calibrate
your SmartView 4K using professional calibration LUTs, or to view your video as close to your
final grade as possible. You can also use 3D LUTs to experiment with different looks. LUTs are
loaded into SmartView 4K using Blackmagic SmartView setup, and because SmartView 4K
supports industry standard LUT files with a .cube file extension, you can even load custom LUTs
generated with Blackmagic DaVinci Resolve. Refer to the DaVinci Resolve manual for more
information about generating LUT files.
To load a 3D LUT into 3D LUT 1:
1 Launch Blackmagic SmartView setup.
2 Press the ‘load LUT 1’ load button. A window will open asking you for the
location of the LUT file you want to load. Select the desired .cube LUT file,
then press the ‘open’ button.
3 To view the LUT you just loaded, press the 3D LUT 1 button on the
SmartView 4K control panel. Press the button again to turn the LUT off.
Follow the same procedure to load a LUT file into 3D LUT 2.
