In the case of my film, StormBoy, where I know the stills were converted (not by me) they were Canon Raw format v2 CR2 files and Sony Raw format ARW files and they were converted to ARRI LogC Wide Colour Gamut EI 800. As I said this was done on Adobe After Effects. I was deliberately vague about the video format in case someone had success with a different raw or log format other than the ARRI. I didn't want to limit the responses. As for Michael's suggestion of using Darktable to preconvert the stills, that is indeed a method that works and I have used it in the past. The limitations inherent in that path is that you necessarily make some grading choices in the conversion from Raw stills to PNG and your video is less flexible in the video grade than would be a log video. The ideal would be to do all your grading on the moving image as it is imperative to be able to do dynamic grading particularly in the case of sunrise or sunset time lapse shots. Thanks for your responses so far and please forgive me if my technical speak is imprecise. I am a film maker dabbling in FOSS to improve my flexibility. Cheers
