but does it really matter since i am working with DNxHD 444 10 bit codec and not DNG?
I believe it may do, since the footage may not be 10bit anymore if you have applied filters or pushed it in any direction (example, use 8bit gradient, blur it and export it will give better result in 32 bit than in 8bit even though the original was in 8bit)
I have tried your roundtrip and I really didn't like the intermediate export of all footage before cutting. Thats why I have used MLFSE to virtually mount the MLV-files to dngs (no loss).
However since premiere can't really handle dngs, and speedgrade seem to become reeeeealy slow when using adobe-link from premiere (if the source is dngs from MagicLantern) I have abandoned the adobe world for a while.
Right now my workflow is:
1. MLFUSE dir of MLV to virtual dir of DNGs
2. Import dng-sequences into Davinci resolve,
3 Cut, Color, deliver to prores
No intermediate format. "Only" drawback is all AE dependency (like effects etc). For scenes like this I have roundtripped those scenes separately.
If one likes premiere better to edit in, one can do the edit there, and then xml-export to davinci and render the Prores from davinci (with or without color grading).
Thanks for answer.
Yeah, i tried ur workflow as well, but i had problems with launching resolve 11.
