Hi, hoping to get some advice here. Been trying to work this out for about 3 weeks, but have not been able to find the correct info, so my apologies if this has been posted already but I can't find it.
I'm shooting raw on 5DmkIII, Latest Build 1.2.3 (2017-10-31 01:12) -but also happens on any other previous build, so its not the build I'm sure.
I convert my files to DNG with Switch and don't change any settings.
The DNG files I get out of Switch look PERFECT, they are exposed how I exposed them in-camera and all seems good.
The problem is when I import the DNG's into Resolve, they are always a fair bit darker than the DNG's.
I'm using Resolve 14.
I've tried a million different combinations of the Timeline colour space settings in the project settings, and nothing seems to make any difference to the overall exposure when I import them. The different Timeline colour space settings mainly seem to effect colour/saturation, and not so much exposure.
It doesn't seem to matter if I use the Decode using clip option and change the colour space and gamma settings there either, it gives me a slight improvement but it seems the damage is already done, ie. the files are already darker than they are supposed to be.
I have then been pushing them up using exposure and shadows sliders in the camera raw settings on each clip to get them back to proper exposure, but I find this is introducing a lot of noise.
All I basically want to do is get my DNG's into Resolve how they look in Finder when I preview them before going into Resolve.
The brighter image below is screen grab from Finder, the darker image is a screen grab from Resolve.
Also I've tested opening the DNG's in Adobe Camera Raw and they look fine in there.
The main reason I want to go to Resolve is to export ProRes so I can then edit in FCPX.
Any help or ideas would be much appreciated.
