‌I know you can do it in Premiere Pro, but is it available to do in Elements?

Hi, I am using Magic Bullet and it has LUT Buddy that can be used to install some luts. Don't know if your lut will install, but give it a try. It's FREE. I used a lut for my drone footage.

Just put the .cube files in: program files/adobe/common

You can make your own maps in common to have it organised.

Premiere Elements does not support Luts.

Uh Ann, I have Adobe Elements 2020 and it works just fine for me.

I have over 200 LUTs from different suppliers installed and in use.

- Install Logarist (https://www.logarist.com/#Premiere_Elements)

- Put all your LUTs in adobe/common folder

- Whilst editing drag FX Logarist in the layer you want to edit

- Open FX edit and choose the LUTs you want.

 

Works just fine

Yes, you can use LUTs in Premiere Elements.  Go to www.logarist.com and follow the instructions.

Of course, without a waveform monitor and vectorscope in P-Elements, it can be a challenge to get the levels correct.

Yea but again this what you mentioned.. is for the pro version's! I went to the site and LUT buddy is only compatible with after effects cc and premier pro cc, The question was if any LUTS can be added into the consumer version, such as premier elements, I'm having a similar issue but not the the video editor, but the Photoshop elements . I want colour preset's in that one, but no where to be found!!  Except if you buy this elements+ software, but I don't have tons more money to throw around!! Want a quick free fix!

I have never seen or heard of LUTS being used in either Premiere Elements or Photoshop Elements.  "elements+" is not Adobe software and has mixed reviews.

I am also looking for a solution to this. Pro cameras like the Panasonic GH4 have V-Log which require LUT correction but Premiere Pro costs an arm and a leg. I am looking for a less expensive solution. I cannot see any way to utilise a LUT plugin in Premiere Elements. However to normalise audio, Adobe do point us at Premiere Pro, yet Premiere Elements can do it easily, cunning.

You have not recieved an answer yet.  I've not used LUTS anywhere.  In my use of Premier Elements for a few years, I've not seen where it can be done.  However, there are color correction tools where you can adjust one clip and paste the adjustment to the rest of the clips on the timeline.

Only recently have consumer cameras like the Sony RX100iv and Sony RX10ii had provisions for log profile shooting.  It will be interesting how that works into consumer NLE software.
