Did you accidentally set your camera to record in video range instead of film log?

If anything was baked in, it can't be removed. That's the difference between RAW plus metadata and video.

Did you record RAW (then it's just a setting in Resolve) or ProRes?
Now that the cat #19 is out of the bag, test it as much as you can and use the subforum.

So - do you want us to guess or will you supply us with more information about how you watched the footage when you found it less flat and to which recordings you did compare to?
And provide us with sample footage of before and after?

I mean, come on - we try to help, but I hate to pull people every single bit of information out of their nose... I am no fortuneteller.
