No. If your trying to boost colors why would you record with less color. Just more work in post and you're just mangling the footage

Bring the saturation to about 160% and slide the contrast to like 140%. It will be very dynamic and HD.

Yeah. Bring the saturation to 200% and up the contrast to like 190%. It will look just about 4k.
