I am working with log footage from Olympus OMD EM1. I have used a LUT suppled by Olympus to use and I can get pretty good results with both the standard rec 709 and the wide gamut 2020 color spaces.

FCP doesn't apply the LUT as it would from some other brands but I imported the LUT and can add it with the inspector after import.

My desire to to be able to output 4k and 1080p movies. My question is what should my workflow be. Not sure which color space to use and how to edit and color grade then output both 4K and 1080p. My editor is a 2019 MB retina.

It all depends on what you want to deliver. Do you want to deliver HDR? If yes, than work in that color space, if not work in 709. I'd do everything in 4K for 4K output. Once you've done 4K, all you need to do is export to 4K and then export in 1080 for HD delivery.
