The 'color science' menu lets you choose whether to interpret your footage with generation
4 color science or generation 5 color science. URSA Mini Pro 12K is the first camera to use
Blackmagic Design generation 5 color science. Files made on different cameras with
generation 4 color science can be reinterpreted with generation 5 color science to match your
shots from URSA Mini Pro 12K. Alternatively, if you are shooting mainly with cameras that create
Blackmagic RAW files with generation 4 color science, you can mix in clips shot on URSA Mini
Pro 12K with generation 5 color science by reverting them to generation 4 color science.
This makes it easy to match shots filmed on cameras using different generations of Blackmagic
color science.
In the 'camera raw' tab, select 'clip' from the 'decode using' drop down menu
to make adjustments to your clip's Blackmagic RAW settings
Once you have set DaVinci Resolve to enable clip settings for Blackmagic RAW, the clip settings
and gamma controls are now adjustable. Adjusting these settings to optimize your clips can
bring them close to a full primaries grade. This is especially powerful when using DaVinci
Resolve's scopes which can help you neutralize and balance the clips ready for applying a look.
The following information contains descriptions for the clip and gamma controls.
ISO
The ISO value can be changed by increasing or decreasing this setting. This setting is
helpful if you need to set the clip to a brighter or darker starting point for optimization.
Highlight Recovery
Check the box to reconstruct highlight information in clipped channels using
information from non-clipped channels.
Color Temp
Adjust the color temperature to warm or cool the image. This can be used to help
neutralize the color balance in each image.
Tint
Adjusting this setting will add green or magenta into the image to help balance
the color.
Exposure
Use this setting to refine the overall brightness of the image.
Saturation
Saturation controls default at 1 and range from -1 for the minimum saturation to +4 for
maximum saturation.
