For Sony F5 and F55 shooters who are also taking advantage of Sony’s new X-OCN format… well DaVinci Resolve now has your support. I know in my Avid-centric world at work we typically use DNxHD, but I like having choices and ProRes is the preferred choice.

If you are a PC user then you might find the new support for QuickTime ProRes as a feature needing to be added to DaVinci Resolve. It helps that one can pick up a version of DaVinci Resolve for free. Plus, I have a few professional friends who praise DaVinci Resolve as an editor.

Most of my work is pretty simple yet I enjoy not needing to round trip my projects. I’ve edited in Resolve for a number of spots. All of this to turn a fantastic coloring/finishing tool into an in-demand editor. One cannot deny Blackmagic has heaped and heaped improvements into DaVinci Resolve.

Blackmagic adds over fifty new improvements to DaVinci Resolve helping the Color Grading tool and editor become the post-production tool they want to be in everyone’s edit bay.
