Resolve vs. ACR – why so much more latitude in ACR?
I am working with CinemaDNG files from the Black Magic Pocket Cinema Camera. A couple of them have blown out highlights which I am not able to recover in Resolve (v10 lite), but when opening the sequence in Adobe Camera Raw, I am very easily able to recover the clipped values with MUCH headroom to spare.
In Resolve, it seems like my footage is acting very not-raw-like and behaving more like other formats which have “baked in” values and very little latitude. Is there a setting or something I am missing? Is Resolve interpreting the footage incorrectly?

Are you using a LUT? If so, which one? That could have a huge result on the amount of available range for correction.

I’m guessing the camera raw settings is setup to give you a rec709 gamma and colour space
I havent worked with the Black Magic range of cameras much, but I think you can change the camera raw settings for cinemadng files globally with settings->camera raw and per clip under the camera button down on the left in the color room.
I think you will be able to choose a more “raw” setting for you to have all the headroom that is available.
