The only thing I would like to add is that few people have any knowledge, skill or experience in color grading the fancy styles. Unless I know a piece of material is going to be used for broadcast, I just opt for Vivid, it has punch and looks good on Youtube (which is where 95% of videos end up).
I am 100% with Geebax about using "Vivid". I am not a professional, but I have played with all of them and unless you want to have to post-process your work, this works very well. Yes D-Log captures probably the most data, but "out of the box" it looks very dull & flat. You are forced to edit it to have even a decent photo.
If that is what you need, fine, but most of us will post to Facebook or YouTube, and vivid gives great results, and is ever very good for computer viewing. I do have my contrast, saturation, and sharpness toned down a bit too on the phantom. I also seem to default to shooting 1080P. I have a P3A so I have tried 2.7K and I know it is a better picture, but again, the file sizes are much larger and it takes a little more processing for editing............I have compared some of my work to some footage from a P4 in 4K, and can't really say I can see much difference. So, 1080P gives me very nice footage and a little easier to deal with.
I know some will totally disagree with me here, but bottom line is what do you want? If you need professinal style photos and have the experience and time to edit, go for it.
