I'm running DR18 Beta 2 now, and haven't had a single crash since upgrading from 17. The way I see it is we all benefit with each improvement of the product, it would be nice though if they would send me a free speed editor for all of the work I've done typing up my findings. I have worked with them on crash logs, repro steps, use cases, regression testing, etc. I have been deep dive testing their betas since DR15 and have direct contact info for their development team's project manager so I'm a little more vested in the success of DR than most. I also sometimes manage to sneak in feature requests that they incorporate into the beta.nothing big but for me its still nice to see something I requested added to the product.

In fact, I would take their beta software any day over a released version of PP. During betas they are a lot more receptive and make many changes on the fly based on user feedback, not to mention their betas are typically a lot more stable than most vendors. I don't usually use beta software but DR for me is different, mainly because you get a direct line to the developers especially if you bought the Studio edition. The challenge is not to overuse it as the results are too dramatic when initially applied. The Dehaze tool built into DaVinci is extremely powerful and will help almost any video taken on dull overcast days and on overly bright days. Inputs are set to DJI Gamut and Gamma, outputs to rec.709. On my DJI drones, the Color Space Transform tool is doing a good job of moving DLOG toward a well saturated image without the overdone greens. This gives me a fairly neutral image without the odd red and purple tones that appear when color correcting the footage using my usual methods. no need to upgrade yet for the casual user.įor my EVO 2 Pro LOG, I have been having good luck eliminating the magenta shift by using a splitter combiner node and auto color correcting the red, blue and green channels independantly before making further adjustments. DaVinci 17 is still far more stable and has just about all the tools I need. Its working well with a few quirks and crashes. I have the DaVinci Resolve Studio 18 beta installed.
