The qualifiers on 8-bit footage do not behave as nicely as what you posted, or I may be just pushing too hard, and expecting too much from that type of cameras?

    Why you use first the baselut and then der Contradt Correction ?
    If you want to edit in Log footage than use the baselut after the Base correction.
    If you correct the highlight rolloff after the baselut, than you lose all highlight information.

Deahncer is for advanced users, not for beginners. You should lean towards color science to understand how dehancer works. It is for "advanced" users that knows exactly how to balance and grade a shot. And uses dehancer for finetuning a grade.
