@Rainer Bueltert Like you described before i see now more in different platforms and i agree some things are really faster and cleaner to do there. For example in FirePost i got much faster results on a shot a had problems in Resolve. Will look in to BL more for sure. Now i will try to do a short in Scratch if all works out. More you look around more you "see". Thanks!

This seems like the thing which might help specially the mini timeline thing. Seems like a good way to make "shared nodes" like Resolve has now. It needs tiny bit more doing it but very similar in the end after copy paste it seems by description.

Only BM knows.

You forgot to point out the most important bit for many with capital letters "prores on win for 19 bucks"?

I was watching this new feature video and got me thinking right away when looks lut business will start

What do you mean by accuracy? Visually with scopes for sure or are you after something else?

Hi. Updated my website a bit if you care to take a look: http://iconstudios.eu/

On set camera work also affects it a lot as contrast ratios are set by good dop in camera already and you just have control over it n post to adjust harder or softer. It really will depend on story and shots before and after plus on set in camera. Many variables to take in consideration not just gamma.

It really depends on your taste in story or visual side.

Second day update: I have been testing now on my imac that is not the freshest and coolest with some Arri raw files on HD timeline on external usb3 drive. It is feeling fast in terms of color manipulation and later playback. Sure i have not covered all the aspects yet and also not read any manuals or such so my workflow abilities seem limited. What amazes me most is the feeling that it is not hard at all to use it and get the results. Logic is something in between from Scratch to Baselight in terms of layers / nodes. Some tools i like more now compared to Resolve for example like "free" wipe that you can adjust and rotate as you please, also aces feels more natural somehow and curves seem to be animatable. I see no reason why not to try it on feature job perhaps or commercial.

Interesting to see ho fast i could do some stuff there differently compared to Resolve in speed getting in to base look mainly on input node. Have to see how the same shots hold up in Baselight. In a way less tools in comparison to Resolve at first but some ways it feels faster on Arri raw now and i'm not even sure why. Maybe another day i will drag my Elements panel over to see what lights up in menus. Sure i do not undrestand many things about conform and colors yet but for 2 hours playing without manuals at all things start to take shape.

Perhaps Arc will be supported in one point.

Cool. Thanks.

Do you know what was under linux setups hood? Only thing i think is missing is big panels or they use any others made? I mean specially on linux.

Maybe my info is wrong but i have impression there might be one.

Very nice looking reel. You are on to something here. I have always felt that all my good grading jobs are happening on top notch material usually.

Hi. I wonder do we have any Firefly Cinema tools users here? I was talking to them yesterday and it really seems interesting as it feels similar to Baselight in some ways. Also the idea of range of tools seems interesting. On set clip management, proxy workflow, live grade, separate raw player and final color suite as well plus a tool that feels similar to Frame.io but with Firefly cloud or in some cases even on your own server. In a way complete workflow in color sense from set to grading and some other tools on top like dailies for the current film you work on with markers and comments and such. Not sure about pricing yet but the idea is nice to me for complete workflow and with strong color background as the main guys are thirty year veterans on film. Here is also link if you would like to explore it on web: https://fireflycinema.com/color-grading-solutions/firepost-powerful-color-grading-for-post/

Great response @Ross Shain. Thanks a lot!

I saw 24 inch model. http://www.konvision.com/en/show-128.aspx

thanks

Ok i really need that now as i'm doing some feature proxy files with all the metadata for editor.

I have just one question Does the burn in work on win 10?

I probably will wait till beta 3 to start using in on win also. Interesting still.

@Peter Chamberlain writes in another forum about it.
