Very honest and thorough review, well done mate.
I think a video comparing the full Dehancer to the Lite version, and maybe how to supplement the Lite version with Davinci's native tools to get close to the full version's capabilities, would be quite popular.
I would like this as well!
Agree!
Thanks for this very honest video. I fully agree re the price which wood look more attractive if only slightly under $ 400.
Re the performance of Dehancer, I have mixed experience: Yes, it puts some additional load on our systems.
On the other hand, it allows (in my case, at least) to switch off quite some nodes in my huge grading-tree in DAVINCI RESOLVE, freeing up computer load.
So, I end up with quite the same render and playback speed as before.
Fred, thanks for your review! Love the results! We are invitiing everyone to test our IOS app 😃
Would love to do this!
What a great advert break! 😂 "My biggest problem with Dehancer is..." AD BREAK
Haha
All of this, comes with Resolve, it might be a bit better and easy but, you're right about the price, $99 may be the right price. Save your money and learn Resolve.
For many, time is money. And this helps a ton with time.
Learn how to use Davinci and save money. @@FrostbitexP
The clue is in the fact professional DaVinci Resolve colourists use it.
The real fact is that, if you know your gear and how you work, you don't need this, true pros like control, it's your money. @@JJ_Khailha
Very honest, well done
I saw that you used it to edit iPhone 14 Pro footage. Since there is no log or flat profile did you just bake it over the standard color out of the camera? How was it?
Hey! I actually rarely use it with the iPhone. But yes, I do just apply it over the iPhone footage and then tweak it from there. Dehancer does have an iPhone app though specifically for iPhone footage and photos.
Good honest review. Thank you
Thanks! 🙏🏼
Regarding the price yeah it's on the up side, but they offer dehancer lite, bloom, grain as a separate purchase which makes it more affordable. If you doing real world jobs you get your money back from the first gig and then you are set for life, plus not to mention that they always upgrading it adding new cool features to the plugin for free.
Anyone else have extremely slow export times using Dehancer?
Nice review - unfortunately it doesn’t work on my iPad Pro when I go to save the video I’ve enhanced it just shows me a project icon. Also contacted them and guess what 10 emails to support (joke)and only one back with the wrong answer to my question, go figure…
At 100 bucks, yeah, sure. Even then still it would be a bit pricey. But 449... I'll go and buy me that anamorphic lens instead I've been wanted for years.
Is there a solution to dehancer crashing in DaVinci resolve every time I try to open it in the software?
You’d have to contact them for that but I’m sure they’ll have you uninstall and then reinstall the plugin. Good luck!
I agree on the price , I’m very curious on using it . But the price is ridiculous.
would love you to review the cineprint 16 powergrade by tom bolles, it costs around 60 dollars, using all native features of resolve and has a really nice workflow. its been my go to for the last year or so.
@ascari100 I’ll definitely check it out!
For Final Cut Pro users, motion vfx has a great option. M Film Look
Agreed.
What mac would you recommend for flawless video playback?
For flawless video playback definitely the Ultra Mac Studio if using Dehancer.
Other cons of Dehancer:
1. Different versions of the plugin are not compatible.
If you graded your project with version 5, version 6 will change its look.
2. Grain is calculated based on timeline resolution.
3. Adding grain changes other properties of the image (at least it was the case with version 5).
In my case, it desaturated some highlights.
Do you need Dehancers grain? Not really. Walter Volpatto uses built-in grain generator.
Do you need Dehancers tone curve and color adjustments? Not really. DaVinci has great free Kodak and Fuji Film LUTs. You just need to apply them correctly.
In the end, I have mixed feelings after trying Dehancer. It doesn't save my time and doesn't improve the result in a meaningful way.
Best film emulatiin plugin that I heard of is Filmbox.
Could you make video about it?
If I can get a version of it i will! I’ll check it out.
Great post! IS FilmConvert similar...? thanks!
It is sort of similar but just has less control. Dehancer has more fine tuning control but filmcovert is only 150 or so.
Humble opinion. I can value your video with the perspective of having taken that path, but there are some complaints that are not entirely fair. The price also alarmed me and there is no obligation to buy anything unless it has value to improve your material. I used the demo, I bought the grain since it is the best on the market and then the lite version and finally the full version. I work with a Mac M1 and 8 RAM, although it is slow at times, I can work, see how the project is going and rendering a clip. I have a full DVR, the Mini Panel and I have been using DVR for quite some time, so the question is, why do I need Dehancer?
I have many ways to do color and I find that with a clean Dehancer node that I have as a Power Grade, I can improve some very specific aspects. I also use Mononode to add density. Bloom is not a real Tiffen filter, but it does the job if you didn't want to risk it. I think if you want to improve the footage it is a good tool.
The way Dehancer applies grain is much better that the way DVR does it.
Great review. Too expensive.
That price is ridiculous
for a hobbyist? Sure. for someone who does this as a job and makes thousands of dollars a month doing so? Not at all.
@@FrostbitexP sure but there are a lot of people in between that, and when you consider the software itself is only $250, this add-on comes off as too expensive
Typical Russian mentality
Nice review Fred. Exeptional plugin but probably not necessary for most people. I would love to have it myself but not at that price point. Another thought, Is Dehancer still russian based company? Because its difficult to like and support companies from russia these days.
Yes because the small Russian companies are making the war to Ukraine, right?
The truth is, I prefer to pay one instead a subscription, and paying forever to the end on my life every month
The big things for me are the bloom and halation. Resolve’s built in halation is TERRIBLE. It applies uniform and is not convincing or appealing to look at. The bloom and halation in Dehancer (from what I’ve seen online, I haven’t bought it) look so realistic and natural, it really makes me want to buy dehancer but it keeps getting more and more expensive
Ehhh.. i wouldnt say it looks like film.. it makes your video act like film. It still really depends on what camera you use.
The best examples ive seen come from the cineprint powergrades
*intentionally 😬
Yea, saw that. 🤷🏻♂️😆Sharp eye, it goes by so fast!
@@FredTrevinoColor creators gotta look after one another.. :) great vid tho!
Please listen dehancer!! Lower the price!!!
