This is GAME CHANGING | ProRes Raw as RAW in DaVinci Resolve 17

Apple introduced ProRes Raw in 2018 as a raw option that encompasses the flexibility of raw and the performance of ProRes. Since then, every major NLE has offered support for the raw codec; however, the most widely available color grading NLE, and arguably an industry standard, has not: Blackmagic Design's DaVinci Resolve. Previously, in order to use ProRes Raw in DaVinci resolve 17, you needed to transcode it to ProRes 4444. While this offers a nice file, you lose the access to all the raw data you've captured. This is even more disheartening because ProRes Raw is a Raw format that has undergone no processing. This arguably makes it superior to almost every Raw solution on the market.

Thankfully, a developer named Nikolaj Pognerebko has created a converter that allows us to encode ProRes Raw to another format that works in DaVinci Resolve: CinemaDNG. CinemaDNG is also a raw format that is non-processed and non-debayered (Demosaiced). Although it does require MacOSX and some transcoding, the performance on the New M1 Max Macs offer transcode speeds up to 70FPS. That's 3 seconds of video in a second. The M1 Macbook Air I own converts at 16FPS lossless. This allows 30+ cameras on the market, and growing, to have the ability to shoot raw and for it to be color graded in a professional color grading software. That's the key. Resolve is one of the best NLEs for color grading on the market next to Baselight.
