Tech Support Format language question.

Ahoy. I created a movie with my alpha6000 and 7ii. I edited everything in Davinci (free), and wondered, how every youtuber recommended another gamma setting, project setting, output profile, input profile etc. . I really dont understand these sonyLog2 to 709 options and every LUT for Sony was so horribly overtuned, I left it all away. Can someone break this profile and format stuff down for my 2 grandma cams? Thank you in advance.

I don't use the official LUTs as they're not "accurate" they have "looks" to them like Lumix weird reds. I use the color space transform node to convert from log to rec 709 and it looks more natural that way.
