Need help with new color managed in 17 studio

Hey guys I need some help.

I wanted to try color managed workflow with gen 5 science but not sure how this is working.

Project settings are davinci color managed with preset as davinci wide gamut. Output space is rec 709

Gives me a rec 709 look as a start

If I go into raw settings and change from gen 4 to gen 5, nothing happens.

If I change project settings from color managed to davinci yrgb and timeline and output as rec 709 gen 4 to gen 5 does make a change.

Please help me in understanding how this works?

How can I use gen 5 and see the difference between 4 & 5 in color managed workflow?

It's not clear to what extent, if at all, 17.1 supports gen 5 in color managed workflows. But, generally, a color managed workflow won't allow a change of color science in the raw tab.

Maybe this feature will supported in future, but for now..... If you want to experiment with 4/5, you'll need to use Davinci YRGB.

I need some more help in understanding how color managed workflow works.

I see when I choose color managed and select rec 709 vs when I select davinci wide gamut, the color information is so much more in wide gamut.

I am a little confused as to how this works.

Is this workflow equivalent to starting with a node with color space transform? And hence the colors are already limited to 709? While in wide gamut that information outside 709 gamut is still retained?

May I suggest the excellent tutorial on RCM by Rippletraining, with Alexis van Hurkman himself as your trainer?

Thank you for the suggestion. I am not a member there right now. And for 80$ just to understand this is not feasible right now for me. I am just experimenting color managed workflow.

Just wanted to know if its equivalent to cst at the first node.

Thank you. I've read that. But that's not what I am looking for. I am not wondering what davinci wide gamut is.

I am asking if color managed workflow is equivalent to cst at the first node
