As ISO, exposure and white balance can all be changed in post, does it matter what ISO one shoots at (BMPCC 4k and Resolve Studio)? This might sound like a dumb question, sorry.
That's not a dumb question.
The PCC4k and PCC6k are using two gain stages for ISO.
Stage 1: ISO 100 - 1000 => doesn't matter what you select in BRAW within this stage.
Stage 2: ISO 1250 - 6400 => doesn't matter what you select in BRAW within this stage.
An ISO stage does not set your exposure, just the display curve.
But remember: Stage 1 has around one stop more dynamic range than stage 2.
And stage 2 has cleaner blacks than stage 1.
If you go beyond ISO 6400 you will lose some more dynamic range and those ISOs are not interchangeable in post.
Exposure has to be set correctly by using shutter speed, ND filtering and lens aperture.
Whitebalance can be changed in post anytime and is just metadata.
