FS5: Gamma Assist

Anyone else finding the current Gamma Assist LUT to the FS5's viewfinder not very good?

I'm finding quite hard to judge exposure as it kind of blows everything out. My work around shooting in S-Log2 is to set Zebras at 70 and try and make sure they don't expose on faces, usually i get a +2 overexposure which i bring down in post anyways.

I'm hoping Sony will add via firmware another Gamma Assist that is a Standard Rec709 and not the current 709(800) LUT.

The Gamma Assist function is poorly implemented as it cannot compensate for intentional overexposure, but I believe Sony's working on a firmware fix for the A7s2, & hopefully the FS5 too.
