Resolve vs speed grade 2010
mac Resolve vs mac speed grade 2010
Got a chance to play with speed grade for a minute the other day and it seems like its come a long way from the one I tested 6 years ago.. Anyone have any opinions they would like to share.
Thanks,

Looks like a nice tool… more towards the price range of a Scratch system then a Mac Resolve.
It’s great that there are so many evolved color tools around.

I have tested it throughly, it is fine, has some cool features, but its 40k. If DaVinci is 1k, and Speedgrade is 40k, Speedgrade isn’t 40x better than Resolve. And for 40k you would buy Resolve and get a nice Grade1 monitor. Not to make any Iridas fans angry here, but I know a guy who spent 40k years ago on Speedgrade to jump ship to a 1k Resolve and they don’t use their 40k speedgrade anymore. The industry is out of control right now.

It wont take long to see Assimilate, Iridas and Nucoda (maybe even Film Light and Autodesk) to come up with low price alternatives I think.
I rather spend the money on a proper panel,actually.
We see the same development 3D, compositing and sound had over the last years.A slice of color…
DaVinci 7.1 OSX 10.6.6
Dual Xeon 2,4 RAM 24 GB
RAID0 8TB eSata 6TB
GTX 285 / GT 120
Extreme 3D+ WAVE -
Yes.. for that kind of money if they were to each throw in a custom control panel that would be great.
That’s one of the things that is great about Nucoda, DaVinci, Baselight, Lustre, Pogle, Pandora, (any others with custom panels?)..
They each have a well designed flag ship panel that makes a statement in the suite.

FlamePremium 2011 is still a 130k piece of software w/o hardware, honestly they tout it as this crazy savings, since you get 3 packages in one, but you can only use one at a time.
It is a sweet package, none the less, but I think Lustre is pretty UN-FLEXABLE in the modern DI world. I only takes big-endian DPX, maybe some other still image formats, but nothing else.
I mean about 160k gets you a decent station, but still need to build a good work station around that.If SMOKE for MAC has BATCH, that would be the sinker.

I really like the ease and speed of the “adjustment layer” style grading and individual controls over highlights, mids, and shadows. It makes it very quick to create stylized looks. Supporting every format under the sun and good integration with the wave is a bonus too. I like it, but I fell in love with nodes after using Nuke. Much more sophisticated and logical to my mind. If it was cheaper I’d definitely consider it as an extra option, but for now I’ll just use my friend’s system.
BTW It would be awesome if Resolve’s node graph had the option of using “notes” like Nuke for complicated grades. For example….

Your information is out of date. Lustre can and does work with R3D, QT, Open EXR etc. files just fine. It’s just that debayering and importing needs to be done through Wiretap. It’s a fabulous grading system…
