Hey, i've posted my first grade earlier here:
viewtopic.php?f=2&t=22&start=60#p547I went for a much darkier 'moodier' look overall since i like that, and i didn't make the skin as green/yellow as the ACR file we've been looking at here is. If i were going for a 'beauty' look i would approach it much differently yet again.

Learning everyday! It's my favourite thing to do.

I personally don't see the parts you've highlighted as banding. In motion at 1080p on my 27" display it looks fine. Yes there are some yellow spots, but as i first mentioned in order to match the ACR file i noticed that resolve displays a much larger range of colours. The yellow parts in the shadow/low-mid tones are a result of my failure to fully 'unify' all colour in her skin like ACR. I actually see this as a 'flaw' to ACR since you have no option but to live with the lack of colour range. Most noticeable in the hair in which according to ACR is basically the same colour as her skin, where as Resolve shows clearly this is not so. The prores log files from the BMC are similar which i posted about and this can either be a negative or positive depending on what you're trying to achieve. I like that with raw in resolve you can choose.
The BMCFilm colour space indeed behaves like the Prores film files. It seems you prefer the more constrained and uniform colours. Great to have the option now in Resolve! I had a quick play with that option but i have to say the keyboard shortcut problems in 9GM (and scroll wheel now tilting instead of zooming - you have to hold alt+scroll now? arrggghhh) still annoy me and i will revert back to 9b3 after these tests.
So here are the comparisons with BMCFilm this time, not as closely matched now but still...

So yes, BMCFIlm (i'm guessing it's the prores log straight from the BMC) seems to get closer to ACR much quicker and easier. But IMHO this isn't a good thing unless you're always going for that look. For me, i've never been a big fan of ACR conversions. Not compared to Capture One. But i think the BMCFilm can go other places too and it's great we have the choice now if we need/want it or not. Progress.
