Most colorists know how to use Lift/Gamma/Gain. That is a video tool. The Dehancer code uses a "Print" model. When you adjust the exposure in Dehancer, you aren't just making the picture brighter; you are changing the density of the negative.
Unlike a standard LUT (Look Up Table), which simply remaps RGB numbers, Dehancer uses a computational approach. It attempts to mimic the physical chemistry of celluloid. dehancer code
Dehancer’s code simulates the physics of light scattering through the emulsion layers. It is not just a blur applied to the highlights; it is a wavelength-specific bloom. When you turn up the halation in Dehancer, you aren't adding a "filter"—you are adding a mathematical simulation of a chemical reaction. That is the code at work. Most video editors are used to adding "noise." Noise is random, uniform, and ugly. Film grain is structured. Most colorists know how to use Lift/Gamma/Gain
