Footage shot with a Log profile looks washed out when imported into a Rec. 709 timeline, so Final Cut Pro uses LUTs to convert the extra dynamic range into an image that fits the Rec. 709 standard for video.

There are built-in LUTs for common camera formats, and additional LUTs can be installed by scrolling to the bottom of the CUSTOM CAMERA section and selecting Add Custom Camera LUT…. There is a vast range of LUTs available to download from camera manufacturers as free downloads.
