Bad IDT with DNGs converted from Panasonic RAW rw2 sills

Resolve doesn't read RW2 files so I converted a timelapse series to DNGs using the free Adobe DNG converter. As others have remarked, Resolve 15 doesn't offer RAW files the choice of ACES Input transforms. The converted DNGs in Resolve looked almost completely desaturated.

Anyone have a suggestion for a workaround?

I've found that it's better to shoot timelapses in JPEG for this reason.

As it's too late for that, instead of converting to DNG, convert to PNG.

you could also use darktable and batch convert the RW2s to any supported lossless image format and color space with much higher raw processing quality than resolve and it's more realtime processing optimized implementation provides.
