On the playback side, clips were not playing during review, and opening the playback screen without storage media could trigger an unintended screen.<\/p>\n<p>F-Log2C banding fix and updated 3D LUT<\/p>\n<p>Banding could occur when applying the default LUT in F-Log2C settings under high-saturation lighting.
