DaVinci Resolve 9.1
A new update for Resolve is available. I use the free Lite version regularly, it’s easily the best free grading suite out there. The Lite version is only limited by HD resolutions, a single GPU and no noise reduction. This suits my F3 perfectly as it’s virtually noiseless in any situation. The full version is 4K and multi GPU with noise reduction.
My i7 3770K with a GTX680 4GB and 32GB of RAM plays back any amount of nodes I’ve needed in real time without a glitch.












Shot On What
Cooke Look
The Cooke Look is a well know phrase in the industry, and deservedly so. My 18-100mm Cooke Varotal zoom is my favourite lens.
Film and Digital Times have an article detailing Cooke’s approach to lens design. The a PDF at the end which expands on the post.












Panavision 70mm Digital Prototype
It seems Panavision has not surrendered highend imaging just yet with the sell off of Dynamax. A working unit is at least six months away apparently. Interesting times.
