So I have a bmpcc4k and I have a couple of questions on how to properly use the color card correction feature of Resolve with it. I did lookup the manual but it's really not that clear :/
First, assuming I'm not in a Color Managed project. I get my footage from the BMPCC4k (on 7.3 fw, shot on "Film" dynamic range) and it's decoded as Gen 5. What should I pick as "source gamma" ?
There is :
Blackmagic Design Film
Blackmagic Design 4k Film
Blackmagic Design 4.6k Film
and I'm not even sure what the difference is. And to make matter worse, if I look at the LUTs under "Blackmagic", there are :
Blackmagic 4.6K Film to Extended Video v4.cube
Blackmagic 4K Film to Extended Video v4.cube
Blackmagic Broadcast Film to Extended Video v4.cube
Blackmagic Film to Extended Video v4.cube
Blackmagic Gen 5 Film to Extended Video.cube
Blackmagic Pocket 4K Film to Extended Video v4.cube
Blackmagic Pocket 6K Film to Extended Video v4.cube
which seem to imply none of those 3 are even equivalent to "Pocket 4k", or "Gen 5" ...
Second is if I choose to use a Color Managed in the project settings. If I use the color match tool, I have to pick a "Source gamma". Should that be REC709 since RCM should have already converted to that, or does the tool look at the "raw" input and I should pick the same as in the first case of non color managed ?
