Davinci Resolve Updates

Today we released public beta 3 of DaVinci Resolve 21 which adds improvements and bug fixes across MultiMaster collaboration workflows, still image capture and color management, graphics workflows, and immersive video support.

This update improves collaborative workflows with more flexible MultiMaster trim selection, allowing each user to independently choose trims per timeline without affecting other users. This means colorists with Dolby Vision capable displays and dailies editors with laptops can choose different active trims without affecting one another.

This beta also includes improvements for the photo page, including support for live camera capture from Sony Alpha 7 V cameras, allowing you to capture, grade and organize an entire shoot without leaving DaVinci Resolve. There are also new photo page capture controls for camera orientation, a capture option to add photos to a new album and improved photo thumbnail information for small thumbnail widths. This update also adds support for colorspace and gamma controls for NEF sRAW stills, better chromatic aberration and distortion correction of RAF stills and greater image editor compatibility for exported sRGB HEIC files. Plus, there’s now support for decoding Panasonic Lumix RW2 files.

DaVinci Resolve 21 Beta 3 adds new scripting APIs for AI based workflows including IntelliSearch analysis, Slate analysis, motion blur removal and background task controls, along with improvements to the updated Macro Editor for building Fusion templates and macros more efficiently. There’s also face age transformer improvements for small age changes, bad lighting and partial faces.

In addition, this update improves immersive YouTube render metadata for VR and stereoscopic workflows, including improved Stereo3D VR metadata handling for side by side and top bottom renders, as well as spherical immersive metadata support for YouTube VR video exports.

Today we released public beta 4 of DaVinci Resolve 21 which adds improvements and bug fixes for Resolve effects on still images, AI CineFocus visual quality, AI beauty tools, keyframe editor workflows and immersive video support.

For the photo page, Resolve FX now behave more reliably when transforming still images. If you resize or reposition a photo with an effect applied, overlays and on screen controls now remain correctly aligned, making it easier to fine tune adjustments without interruption. The update also improves transparency handling for effects on stills, remembers effect favorites between app launches and fixes warper tool behavior on photos so you can more accurately reshape and manipulate images.

There is also more accurate highlight representation for Canon CR2 and CR3 images. This means bright areas in photos retain a more natural appearance and no longer look darker than expected when grading or compositing.

On the Edit and Cut pages, the keyframe editor now supports Fusion motion paths and other modifiers. This allows animation curves, motion paths and linked parameters from Fusion titles, effects and macros to be adjusted directly alongside timeline keyframes. This means editors can now adjust animated graphics and Fusion effects directly in the keyframe editor, making complex animations faster and easier to refine.

For DaVinci Resolve Studio users, AI CineFocus has been improved to produce more realistic shallow depth of field effects. Better and Faster modes now handle subtle blur more cleanly, while reductions in edge shimmer, stair stepping and halos help foreground subjects separate more naturally from backgrounds. This is especially useful when simulating lens focus effects on interviews, close ups or archival footage.

AI beauty tools have also been refined with the blemish removal tool allowing greater precision for facial area so corrections stay focused only where needed, and better support for alpha layer workflows with the face refinement tool. This makes it easier to isolate and track facial adjustments automatically, reducing the need for manual masking when working on beauty, fashion or interview shots.

In addition, this update adds support for Insta360 native colorspace along with improved DNG decode handling with color value and profile look table support for more consistent image reproduction.
