I really like the image quality on the Pocket 6K and Pocket 4K – but sometimes want to use full frame (and already own a full frame camera that outputs braw). I've only used Nuke (not Resolve) for this so far but I notice that I can take a braw clip from the A7S3 or S5 or something and rather than using V Log or SLOG3 I can set the camera to Gen 5. I've noticed the A7S3 doesn't quite match the Venice (redder skin) and S5 doesn't match the Varicam35 to my eye very closely. But that Black Magic profiles its cameras better and the P4K and P6K look similar and both convert to Log C very accurately in ACES.
If I just develop the footage in Nuke as Gen5 and use the same workflow as I would with P4K footage, can I get the same color that I prefer from the Pocket cameras except on my full frame S1?
I've also noticed, no idea how or why, that despite the lack of antialiasing filters the P4K and P6K seem to exhibit less aliasing than the A7S3's ProRes raw. But it could just be the lenses or something I'm seeing wrong.
