Who thinks Davinci Resolve should have a photo editing tab?
Absolutely, would rather it be a separate program tho
YESSSSSSS
I don’t have not want to use Lightroom or other programs. Ever since I got the hang of Davinci Resolve I have edited photos with it and love it.
Would be better if LR had these DVR tools
@@JamieFenn 👍🏻For sure
I've been editing photos in davinci for the longest. Since i started off as a video guy, ive always said that if Davinci was able to edit sony raw photos, i dont think i would ever touch photoshop or lightroom.
You can convert ARW to DNG using Adobe's free converter.
It can read canon raw
iìm using da vinci for my sony arw photo and i have to convert in dng because da vinci don't support however the picture it's flat and dull it's that normal?
This comment thread is useful. Was already using resolve for photos but was annoyed about only getting to work on jpeg. Having that option via a free convert is good to know because I was already wondering whether I missed something in the DVR UI
Just last week I made an experiment. The challenge was this: To shoot my first portrait sesion with the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6k Pro and to edit the resulting BRAW stills in Davinci Resolve. I used the same method as you for the color transform and adjustments. The results I ended with were simply amazing. 😮
I love to shoot stills with the BMCC6kFF.. eventhough one can't still no see them in the media of the cam.. so I shoot short clips. most of the time with 90° because of additional sharpness for sports e.g. and then I pick up the points which I want to create stills from. And depending of the shooting I still have footage for a little behind the scenes reel for IG stories or whatever. The editing workflow in DV is super smooth and the pics are always amazing! If one like the film look 🤣
My LrC catalog encompasses over half a million photos. New shoots are usually 500+ images. The tools now available in the LrC masking section are so powerful and convenient I can't imagine engaging in the complexity of this. I'd really need to buy a beanie with a propeller on it that powered a brain altering computer chip that would allow my brain cells to even begin to compute a convenient workflow for what you are doing.
I agree with you. You watching this probably made you feel like the first time opening Lightroom. But like I say in the video, I sometimes use it like this. And also Lightroom doesn’t have a skin tone indicator which is why I will edit photos in DR. Both ways work. And obviously LR works better in a lot of ways, but lacks certain things I want that DR has.
THANK YOU SO MUCH , YOU HELP ME A LOT !!!!!!! NO ONE ELSE HAS POSTED SUCH A VIDEO LIKE THAT
Where was this video last week!!! Iol i took photos for the first time and wanted to edit them in DR. With lots of trial and error i basically have the same work flow as you just showed here. So im glad what im doing is correct. You got yourself a new subscriber!! Cheers
I'm currently trying to find my way out of the Adobe ecosystem and I'm glad to find out that raw photo processing in Resolve is not as insane of an idea as I first thought!
3 minutes in and you still havent told me about this amazing thing davinci does that everyone else dont
Hey Jamie, on the last node with the power window, I do a similar trci but instead of using the wheels to make the power window dark. I make the window and then attach the node to an alpha channel. This will do exactly the same thing to check the skin, but while it's on, you can move and adjust any node and the window remains. I call it "Jim's Isolation Method" ( JIM for short ) - you can turn it on and set skin tone on a different node or exposure etc. then just turn it off when finished. The benefit to doing that way, is that even if you have a look lut further up the node stream ( in timeline or an adjustment layer etc. ) the alpha channel always shows the final output. So add the alpha channel and drag the blue box to it to connect that node and jump anywhere in the node tree and adjust with everything blocked out.
The other thing that this benefits is that you can grab a still and it will retain the alpha channel - so even shot matching difficult hues like an orange/red sweater or something - add the power window - add the alpha channel then grab a still on the graded hero shot - then you can go to the shot you want to match and add a power window or isolation, and then put the still in the image wipe - and you can then scope and monitor just the two clips of that color.
I came onto this because I watched Cullen making a window on the timeline level and then trying to jump back and forth to set something. I've always had the mindset that if something looks like there must be a better way, there probably is - so I made a power window and tried what you are doing here, and concluded that going to another node - I would lose the isolation, but adding an alpha channel didn't.
I would bet that somewhere somebody else has stumbled on to this - but for me, I've never seen anyone do it. So if somebody does include it in a tutorial - feel free to give me credit by labeling the node - the "JIM" node. And have fun with it.
Absolutely great ideas. I just wish I could drag and drop the node into the viewer like you can in fusion. Would be so much easier…
Intersting Jim. However I have been exploring this method as you described, and I see little to no difference in the resulting stills in 19 B5. The stills generated by your method as described, simply result in a circular windowed still with a black background, and do not appear to respect the alpha. Even when using alpha wipe mode in the viewer. Exporting the stills as PNG, or a format that supports alpha, also does not have a transparency as Id expect based on your description. Not sure if something has changed, its a bug, or maybe i am missing something. I can create a still with a window, and a clip with a window, but that is not different from any other windowed still. Thoughts?
@@chadmillercolor Two different reasons - using the alpha for stills is just to quickly isolate and use for a shot match with the image swipe and seeing it on the scopes.
The use is for isolation the transparency is not the feature I cared about or needed.
The idea with the still you can test - put a circle power window on someones face and then hook the alpha channel to it. Right click and grab a still. Go to a different angle or clip and then click the image wipe. You now have just the face from the still. You can then isolate the clip that you want to change and using the waveform or the parade etc. both will be isolated and using the scopes you can quickly match them.
Pretty sure if you just grab a still with a power window without the alpha - it will show in the image wipe as the whole frame.
Can you save a still with a power window and bring it back on the image wipe? Never used to be able to.
Also the technique I was talking about makes you able to turn on the alpha node and see the whole node tree output and move to any node and adjust the hues etc. on specific nodes. It is the equivalent to turning on false color and going back to the first exposure node and adjust the exposure.
@@JimRobinson-colors Yes sir.. Using the method described in Jamie's video here, results in exactly the same output Still. Both yield a windowed still with a black background. even moving over to the Edit page, where you can clearly see the alpha as transparency using your method, and the new option for transparent viewer background.. Export as still using the file menu also results in a PNG with a black background. The only way to truly respect the alpha as transparency is to use FUSION. In both cases you can move about the tree as needed and the window remains. And with the new node layers stacks, and the need to patch alpha all the way through each stack... I feel the alpha method may be less convenient. You had me excited for a minute as i was hoping to output alpha as transparency..
Will the photo be in full quality after exporting? I mean I don’t care about the social media, I care about the quality itself if whenever I want to print photos or participate in competitions.
The photo will be in whatever resolution your timeline is set to (like I show in the video)
Hi Jamie,
I really love what you do, especially with Fusion in DaVinci Resolve.
Could you please share the tools you frequently use in the Fusion tab to create these amazing videos?
Thank you so much!
As a Lightroom Classic user and having never touched DeVince Resolve this is mind boggling. Thanks for the idea, but I will stick with Lightroom
2:09 you’ve said decode using the project pointing to none, so I didn’t understand anything about that phrase, this is why I came here to ask about what you meant and how to do it exactly 🙏🏻
@@c73w he meant the third point on the camera raw master section. There it sass Decode using: and you should select „project“
This is the same reason why I use Fusion for my photo editor lol, super useful and non destructive
I used to grade my pictures with Davinci Resolve as you know it is a very good tool. Great tutorial my friend ☺️🙏
I hope Blackmagic brings exposure peaking and False colour tools to Davinci Resolve to further enhance accuracy.
@iamakkkshay false color is already in davinci! Its in ofx. You technically can read peaking in the waveform, or make a qualifier for highlights and make it super red to see peaking! ;)
@@RicoDerks jaur Hendrickson has a false color in a free DCTL that is loosely based on EL zones which a lot of DPs use. I had some input on it, and it works great especially for faces because it shows 5 exact half stops below and above and the colors go in the same order as the vectorscope with cool colors below middle grey and warm colors above. Makes it really intuitive to use, with a glance you can see skin tone key to shadow ratios. I use it all the time - free download, I think he calls it "KH Checkers" it's a DCTL that has a few overlays to check for things.
@JimRobinson-colors his DCTL work is top notch! Thanks, didnt knew this one!
just logged into your video cause I was curious, as I don't edit vdeo at all, this was like chinese for me, but indeed I would love to learn Da Vinci.... but ...any idea where to start for a complete and absolute newbie who is over 60 yrs old? Thank you, and best regards from Uruguay. PS I watched the full video, still chinese but interesting and challenging :) 🙃
Thanks for the video. I’m trying to edit a photo in davinci using your steps but when I create a still and export it, it doesn’t look quite the same in the exported image as it does in davinci. Any idea why?
Also, is there any way to export an image using the deliver page? I’ve tried but it always says it can’t decode the frame rate
Love this video, Jamie! There are a few tools in Resolve that either don't exist, or don't work quite as well, or are less intuitive, in photoshop and lightroom.
Agreed!
Interesting. I recently made a video explaining why I use Davinci Resolve for both my photo and video editing, and the main reason is that I am using Linux on my PC and I don't have the choices of Lightroom or Capture One. My node tree is a bit different though. I put a LUT after the last CST. I also love that I can check the skintone when color-grading. In Lightroom I am always guessing the skin color, and with Capture One there is a dedicated skintone adjustment panel but not as easy to use as in Davinci Resolve. Thank you for the tip of the DCTL! Really hope that Blackmagic would make a separate photo management tab and Linux people will have a true capable Lightroom replacement.
i'm also using resolve for photo editing, really cool to have all the fusion stuff fur effects and whatnot.
I noticed in your "Project Settings" as well as on your input "CST" that you set your Color Space & Gamma to "Blackmagic Design...". Is this because you shot this particular project USING a Blackmagic Camera, or is this how you'd always set these particular Settings "for PHOTO Editng" in DaVinci Resolve, even if you shot with a different brand of camera, such as the Sony a7iv...? I ask because I always set the Color Space & Gamma to Sony S-Gamut3.Cine & S-Log3 on my input "CST" when I'm editing "VIDEOS?"
Couple of things that were not correct:
- You decoded the photo as Blackmagic Film Gen 1 (in the raw tab). That means you have to use Blackmagic Film Gen 1 in your CST input if you want to do it correctly.
- On your first CST you left on 'Tone mapping'. If you're converting from one log profile to another it is best to turn off 'Tone Mapping', this will make the transformation mathematically correct.
This is an interesting take on this subject but I find it to be little too much work for a simple photo edit like in case of Lightroom editors this can be I could say ok but when it comes to skin retouching and other stuff I don’t think this is the way to go I still think Lightroom is the way to go but mad respect to you man for your other effects tutorial video I really enjoy them and have been consuming them for a long time keep up the good work🤝🏻
I could have explained way more but I just wanted to show the basic idea of it.
Black Magic should make a software (like DaVinci Resolve) to edit photos. It won't be a challenge for them
Why would I want to edit photos in davinci? Probably because its by far the most fun thing to color grade on.... and I know the tools the best.... and its just better lol. Great video!
My dude thank you 🙏🏼
Whoaaa thanks a lot Jamie! grading skin tone is soooo much easier with this tips.. Thank you!
You're so welcome!
I usually just roll raw footage with low shutter angle and just extract a still from that.
I edit some of my portrait that i shot with a Nikon D5200 the color grading is amazing, and btw you don't have to do all the process to transform it in DNG because, it accept it like a raw file, just amazing!
That’s awesome 👏
I thought the whole point was to add halation and glow and skip to go to Photoshop to do so, anyway I learned about color space to edit pictures. Very informative!
Glad I could help!
Bro your style is so cool!
I appreciate that!
I actually tested it for this years ago and thought it did many thing well.
Yep it’s amazing for editing photos regardless of what people think or say 🙂
I’d suggest reading Dan Margulis's _Photoshop LAB Color_ book if you truly want to learn how to edit photos professionally.
Jamie I think there is an easier way save the edited photos, 1.select edited photos on time line, 2. Click on Deliver Tab, 3. Choose Custom Export, 4.Choose Location, 5. Choose options: Individual Clip, File, Source name, Use unique filenames, 6. Add to render Queue (That's all folks)
Thanks to help from forum Guru's
Simply exporting a still from the color page is faster and works the same
But doesn’t saving via colour page still grab give you a very small file that is no use for printing if you print to A1 or even A3 size?
Man alive. This is super convoluted
It may seem so but with practice it’s easy
Hi Jimie, I am trying this technique but i notice a difference in colors between the preview in Davinci and the jpg exported (less saturated). Do you have any suggestion?
Weird. I’m on a Mac, they look identical to me
i was looking for this, one question tho, is there a way to export in different sizes say for large prints?
Just change the project resolution. Like I say in this video, I set mine to be posted for Instagram, where as you can set it to anything you want. It will export at that resolution.
Very interesting process! Will be cool to experiment with more powerful DCTLs and other workflows. Thanks for sharing!
You are welcome!
Hi Jamie, great video as always. Can you share how you make the shakes, wiggly yellow text and graphics, eg at 7:08 Free DWG LUT. You use the wiggly text several times and I have seen it on other channels being used as well but I have not seen or found a plug in that creates this look coming on and off screen. Thanks a lot!
Darktable is free you know? And it can edit pretty much all kinds of RAW files from multiple cameras, even old ones.
Does it have waveforms including the skin tone indicator?
@@JamieFenn yes
5:22 why you set input: Blackmagic Design White Gamut if the photo is in sRGB space? Shouldn't you set sRGB in both: input colorspace and input gamma?
Cause it’s not in that space. As you saw earlier in the video I set the camera raw data settings up. Therefore resolve is debayering it which allows you to use this workflow
Fav davinci youtuber ❤
Jamie, as always brilliant. I’ll try and tweak the bits that will allow me to stay in a wider colour format and produce HDR/HLG deliverables. I think I can work that out hopefully. Thank you.
First comment 🎉🎉.... DaVinci resolve photo editing 😮 really i didn't know that
You can also just export by going to \ file - export current frame as still
Yep that works too
@@JamieFenn Also thank you for all your work and amazing tutorials
Hey Jamie, please make a video on Dynamic Island animation effect in Davinci Resolve
Can you send me an example on Instagram?
i make my thumbnail in davicni resolve fusion (with the help of 2 extra pluging - Looks plugin and xlgow from reacotr)
@@VFusioN69 can you make a tutorial on it? I saw your videos and thumbs and it looks pretty smooth
Great video 🎉 why use Blackmagic to decode Raw images instead of srgb for gamma and rec 709 for colour space. Then, he do cst sandwich from srgb to DWG and back to srgb.
I just saw someone using the settings above, but don’t the difference between them 😂
Thx man for your hard work. best man
I appreciate that! No problem 🙏🏼
I just used it to edit a thumbnail for my channel
Blackmagic should made a photo page in resolve😋😋
I agree :)
THIS IS GENIUS!
12:16 I can't find the DCTLs on my DaVinci Resolve, it just says 'none'.
Are you using DR studio?
Have been asking for this since version 13/14. It’s such a no brainer. The tools are already inside. Just needs basic management, preset system. culling, a usable import/export workflow. Support for still raw formats. I am baffled it’s still not there. So I gave up. It’s nice for a few shots. Not for doing a batch.
Amazing job. Thank you so much.
Glad you liked it!
i tried to convert my fuji camera raw image with adobe dng converter... and follow all the settings as ur instructions... when i uploaded it to da vinci resolve it stated "media offline"..
what i did wrong?
Hmmm I don’t know?! Restart the project and try again maybe?
DNGs that come with actual metadata would be awesome!
True, hopefully facing integrates raw reading capabilities for all formats in the future.
@@JamieFenn THAT! And still one of who accepts the most 😬
Awesome and eye opening video Jamie!
Thanks so much!
Can I Export still with 4k quality?
Yea set the project to whatever resolution you want
How to use Grab Still if I have 2 monitors?
i make my thumbnails on davinci aswell lol 😄
Good lesson
Thanks! 😃
@@JamieFenn I want to buy only one license of DaVinci resolve. Can you help me in this field? Do you know anyone who can sell one license of DaVinci resolve.
what a coincidence lol just TODAY i wondered if i should try out using davinci for editing my photos instead of lightroom and if would work out well haha
HAH! That's awesome. Thanks for watching :) Glad you found this video.
Affinity Photo and you can use a Photo Editing Program
Does it have the skin tone indicator?
@@JamieFenn Yes
Sadly affinity is dhit and it lacks essential auto masking features. Affinity is a pain to use
@@andersistbesser Jep thats is a big issue in AP 2.5, but after the sell to Canva i hope they fix ist in AP3 whit local AI
I'm glad I'm not the only one who does this😂
I would so love to try this program - but - unfortunatelly - Davinci won't import my files - The 'fixes' I see online take about 10 minutes per clip - that's too time consuming
What files are you trying to import?
@@JamieFenn mp4 - but converting each clip takes way too long. Thank you
It should work just fine. I assume you may not be using studio?
I am tryin to edit oppenheimer movie in resolve, sort of like a fan made video but when I import a piece of original movie into the timeline it looks washed out compared to when i play the same film in vlc. can you help me what might be the reason ? anything that i should change in color management in resolve ?
Interesting workflow
Thanks for the video.
You are welcome!
After I started using Davinci, I started missing something in PS and LR for my photo editing. Specially the scopes.
Exactly...
This is great stuff, it will com in handy in my still photography.
Thank you Jamie, keep up the awesomeness!
CHEERS!
Happy to help!
Before even watching the video: YES. After using Resolve for a few years, Lightroom and Photoshop both feel so utterly limited in absolutely necessary features.
Haha yea Davinci Resolve is so powerful. I edit my very selective selects in it. Hopefully one day there will be a dedicated tab for it :)
Why Lr and Ps don’t have skin tone references after all these years is beyond me. Be infinitely more useful than AI.
Agreed 🙏🏼
Does anyone know a way to be able to ZOOM IN the timeline tracks by using the mouse scroll wheel if there is such thing on settings? It’s the most intuitive way to zoom in and out.
Resolve drives me crazy not having that feature, just like you CAN on Vegas. I don’t like Vegas but that feature is unbeatable. Plus on Vegas timeline, any gray area you click (top OR bottom) you can access any specific point in the timeline.
Hold down shift and/or command and use the scroll wheel. You’re welcome ☺️
@@JamieFenn I’m gonna try that as soon as I can access my Resolve. Can’t wait. Thanks man!
i convert RAW to EXR and do the magic
Nice video buddy 👍
Can we campaign for Black Magic to make a RAW photo editor. I'd love to drop Adobe.
Absolutely... Im SO down for that.
Tried once but the still image quality isn't that great
Why putting nods in parallel instead of linear? Why actually having many nods? Instead of having only one that I do all the edits in it?
Organization
@@JamieFenn need more explanation and a comparison, because especially I didn’t get nods in parallel instead of linear
Meanwhile me, what is photoshop, I only use Davinci for Photo as well as Video editing 😅
Exactly!
My mind is completely blown! I think it might be easier to learn how to fly an aircraft than this! 😖
Wait are you trolling? Haha
@@JamieFenn Oh no, this is really getting me down! Every time I try to edit something in the Da Vinci app, I feel completely dumb! Or maybe I’m dumb for real😭
No worries. Hit me up on Instagram if you have any questions!
Nice video buddy
Thanks 👍
Been editing all my stills in Resolve for a very long time. I don't use Photoshop or Lightroom.
That’s awesome 👏
for photo sessions with company directors or a big client, I use Davinci Resolve for processing, it's more professional than Photoshop
...or, you could just have used a colour checker... but, do you actually believe that PS or LR, or any other established photo software cannot manage skin tones accurately ?
It has plenty of professional adjustments, just no skin tone indicator (like I mention in the video)
I don't understand why this is better than using Lightroom/photoshop. For professional work, Lightroom/Photoshop rules for actual editing (ie sifting through photos, making your picks), photo retouching (clone tool, patch tool), photo management, masking, photo printing. Hard pass. I do like Resolve for video color correction.
Like I say in the video, the SCOPES is why.
Well, davinci is for everything. Can edit not only Photos but graphics also, so for me its work better than Canva 😅
🥰🥰🥰
Chad Miller link? 😃
Linked! In description!
I wish you would start the video with the actual reason why the hell I should use DR for photos. Am 9 minutes into the video and still have no idea. Unless I know why I am watching a video, I don't want to know a bunch of technical stuff about how first.
There’s no point of me telling you why if you don’t learn the technical.
@@JamieFenn I would happily watch the technical stuff to know how to do it, I just need to know why I should care enough to watch through a bunch of boring stuff first.
Thank god for being able to fast forward
@@JamieFenn If there was a timestamp, I would go there. As it is I lost interest after wasting 9 mins. Put a reason to watch a video up front in future please.
Will do. I do automatic time stamps so I’ll add them later if RUclips hasn’t done so already
BRO PROBLEMED THE SOLVE🤣🤣🤣🤣. THERE IS A REASON PHOTO AND VIDEO ARE TWO DIFFRENT THING. THIS GUY SEEMS LIKE JOKE TO ME NOW
Keep putting yourself and your creativity in a box. I’ll be thinking outside of it 🙏🏼
I actually edit my thumbnails in Davinci
i mean no offense when i say this, i have the utmost respect for you and you're a professional who i trust in this space but this is the dumbest thing ever. nobody should ever use Da Vinci. the photo you edited took 10x to achieve a look you can get in 2 minutes in Lightroom. Completely unnecessary to use Da Vinci for photos.
Did you even watch the video? I literally say I give you the project and power grade to speed up your workflow. And the whole point of the video is to show you that I SOMETIMES use it. And WHY that is... Not the dumbest thing ever. Don't ever put limitations on peoples creativity. People will see you as toxic. And I say that with the utmost respect.
Also to add, you can’t use film emulation luts in Lightroom…
I don’t agree with you, Blackmagic Da Vinci resolve is for free better than any free photo editing software and if you want the studio so the full potential then it is a one time payment instead of monthly or annually subscriptions so simply it is cheaper, even if I have the money, I don’t see it logical to pay Adobe! Free incomplete version is only for smartphones and tablets that aren’t even comparable with any editing PC software, moreover who told you that editing on Lightroom is time saving? I spent hours on it besides hating it, and hating that it is difficult to find a better alternative, until now I can’t say that I have the real potential in photo editing even if there are a lot of people who like my work, on the other hand here you have scopes that let you imitate any photographer/videographer editing, and if this is not enough for you, I can edit like anyone anything in like only three clicks‼️I dare you do the same even with the Classic CC version! Don’t forget that just by learning how to use this software once for videos you can do the same for photos without having to spend more time on others!
Sadly my man has a dead pixel on the sensor :(
You talking about me?
@@JamieFenn Unless something wacky is happening on my end, yessir! In your piece-to-camera shot, to the right of your head. Easier to see when you punch your shot in a bit against the dark hair. Could be some other kind of artefact but reassembles a dead pixel.
Interest video though mate!
RUclips guys care way too much about skin tones & scopes. Perfect skin tone in unperfect light isn't perfect. Imagine having the exact same skin tone in every lighting situation, it just doesn't work that way, you're ruining images by painting with numbers, and the numbers are not relative.
There is literally no benefit to doing this. If you don't want to pay for adobe just us Affinity or Luminar instead. I have all 3 and they are great at various jobs.
While that is possible, does Affinity and Luminar have a skin tone indictor?
I’d have to disagree.. First benefit would be you are simply faster and more comfortable as a colorist in Resolve vs some other application. Another one would be you want incorporate and match stills to your video cameras on the same timeline. Theres are tons of tools in Resolve that may be simply easier or not available in other photo centric applications.
Fusion is also quite powerful for photo compositing.
If you do not find value that’s fine… but to say there are no benefits is false.
Affinity is far far behind times feature wise. I tried to love it but it feels like a 20 year old version of photoshop
Lol, yeah sure
What?
👍🏾🙏🏾 🏴🇸🇪🇹🇹
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Because I ain't paying adobe for their overpriced lousy product.
Did you just do this video because you are not spoiled enough by Adobe ?
No because DR is spoiling me with scopes, something Adobe is lacking. Someone didn’t watch the entire video..
@@JamieFenn matter of fact i did , because my question was retorical . Someone didn't know what irony is ?
Not today
@@JamieFenn Oh well ... apologies then Hope everything will settle up good for you
