I head this problem too, both when I moved a project from Resolve 10 to Resolve 11 and also when I opened the same Resolve 11 project on a different computer.

It seems that I have found the solution:

Using BMDFilm gamma and color space, together with choosing Davinci Yrgb instead of ACES gives the best results I have ever seen with this camera. Much much better than before. Wow! Since the Digital Bolex D16 has a very similar sensor as the Ikonoskop, following its forums can be of great help.

Here is a DNG file from the Ikonoskop a-cam-dii: https://www.dropbox.com/s/zdye0aw9uwbtok9/10806707.DNG?dl=0

If somebody finds any settings that makes this frame look good, please let everybody know. I have tried almost all possible combinations. In version 10, this frame would look good both selecting and not selecting and IDT and an ODT. Now, nothing works anymore. There are more Ikonoskop users feeling the same:

Ikonoskop Workflow : Where do we stand with Resolve 11 & Adobe Camera Raw?
0

I was wondering what the current state of Ikonoskop Workflow is? In the past I’ve used Resolve 8 or 10 to make my dailies using the extremely helpful Joachim post here :

blog.rawcinemashop.be/…/chansons-de-charlotte

I haven’t played with the camera for a while, but now an Ikonoskop project is on the horizon and I’ve picked it up again. I tested Resolve 11 last night and it seems like things have changed from 10 (the colors looked different and some of the steps outlined in the post no longer existed). Additionally, Speedgrade CC 2014 can see Ikono footage (but it looks green and crazy), Adobe Media Encoder CC 2014 can see Ikono footage (but with extremely limited grading tools) and I also see that Cliphouse supports Ikonoskop.

Still what I want more than anything is a way to use the Adobe Camera Raw dialogue (what comes up when you bring a .dng into Photoshop, AE, or Light Room) to batch process dailies with timecode. From what I can tell this doesn’t exist, yet (yes you can use AE, but you don’t get timecode and the rendering is insanely slugg

I’ve also been using the workflow described in Joachims post and been very happy with the results. I’m currently waiting to do final grading on a project I shot a couple of months ago, so I don’t dare to update Resolve yet. But if the update means I can’t get the same results it’s not good news at all… Would really like to know more about what’s different in the new version- and if there’s a way do keep working like before.

Take care!

I can get good results with adobe camera Raw and with cliphouse, but not with Resolve 11. I would be very thankful if somebody could help!

This problem persists both when working with aces as with with RGB.

[Wladimir Bonsegnori]

Yes, but the images don’t look good at all, as they used to with Resolve 10. I could not reach a similar result as I used to with the older version. The colors and the transitions between them look completely wrong. Anyone out there has a solution?

[Wladimir Bonsegnori]

Hi, thanks for the reply. Could you tell me how to do that and still be able to get back to the original DNG files at the end?

Hi Dave,

the best way to learn is making mistakes. So If you don’t know how to do it in post, shoot it and then you’ll have a lot of trouble in the post and then you’ll never forget what to do next time.
That’s the best school, in my opinion.
Anyway I didn’t shoot it white to key it later. I had the idea to key in the post, so that’s why I’m asking here if it’s possible to do so.

I’ll try out your technique and see if I manage to key the background. Both persons have lots of hair, so maybe it won’t be that difficult to separate the background from them because of the high contrast between the hair and the white.
