Nope, I don’t ‘like’ know.

Sorry, I’m old school and couldn’t resist it!

You’ll want to under expose a little. You can recover the shadows with lift, but there is no way to recover blown out highlights. Unlike slog, D-cinelike is NOT a log format. Slog is way way flatter.

Best Mavic Air style settings:
0,-3,-2
(Assuming you will be color correcting on your pc/mac of course)

If you use LUTs, you’ll see a fair number of them are designed for those settings.
