    Hopefully, in a future update, it will show you what is adjusted so you can tweak the results. I like how the white balance picker will show you the tint and temp changes so you can adjust to taste.

      Yup - that was also my wish - Not so much in order to be able to tweak, but more to learn what it did.

      Posted a comment with the same idea a few seconds ago. As I see there is no way to set it up like this. Too sad for such a great feature.

    • @quicktastic
      @quicktastic Před 3 lety +1

      Yes. This would make it better. You could then go in and adjust like you want. It could be a good starting point.

    • @RogersPhotographyGuilford
      @RogersPhotographyGuilford Před 2 lety +2

      Agree. I've used this more than a few times with mediocre results and when I looked to see what adjustments were made in the "wheels" everything was "zeroed" :/ Tweaks are much appreciated moving forward please.

    This has to be one of the single greatest pieces of Resolve advice I've seen so far. Yes, I still feel like I need to dial-in the effect to get it closer to how I'd like it to look - even as a rank amateur - but it still does a great first stab at color correction.

    You are so correct...when I got into video editing with davinci last year and the first time I used auto balance I was amazed and thought davinci knows color way better than I do I'm using this all the time but was slowly brainwashed into thinking its a cheater feature. I am now using this feature to Start all of my coloring!

    I find auto colour extremely useful, especially if I'm in a hurry and need to auto balance a bunch of shots in sequence. Then I just add another node after the auto colour to make additional changes which works coz Davinci's nodes are non destructive :D

    I'm probably gonna wear a hole in my monitor from clicking that button constantly. As a complete noob to digital video editing, I want to thank you for your Resolve tutorial. I was a bit fearful of how long it was going to take to learn the program, but you turned my anxiety into confidence and excitement. It would be 100% worth it at full price, but at the sale price it is the best money I've ever spent.

    As an editor (coming over from Apple software) I think if the auto color in resolve results in a good color correction that is true to the scene or even the desired scene (it can still put you in the ball park) , why not go ahead and use it. Let's face it one can spend an infinite amount of time editing but at the end of the day if you do this you will be in danger of not getting paid LOL or even worse the production runs out of time etc. Thanks for showing!

    • @gsmartcreation5655
      @gsmartcreation5655 Před 2 lety +1

      Hahaha... 😅. It is practical, and sometimes manual correction doesn't give the actual colors. So, it shows you how limited you can push the colors for maximum results. It doesn't work well every time but is 80% effective when you use it and other adjustment nodes to balance it the way you like.

    • @WEHAVETHISDREAM
      @WEHAVETHISDREAM Před 2 lety

      @@gsmartcreation5655 Exactly!
      I use this button and if I do not like it, I dial it down a bit,
      or make a separate version on another node, manually, and compare them.
      Or press "auto-color", dial it down a bit and modify maybe here and there.
      Most of the times - especially for outdoors, where the temperature remains pretty much the same (if weather / cloud conditions do not suddenly change) - works great!
      For indoors, with so many lights and type of lights, usually manually is better and less time consuming,
      because it makes so bad "auto-colors", sometimes. Even on "hero" shots.

    Using Da Vinci now for over two years and never knew this existed. However, I am currently editing a wedding and decided to try it out on a few clips. It crushes all the blacks a hell of a lot and ups the saturation on all clips I tried it on.
    I can see it being useful as a first step for beginners in grading, but my mids are too high and lows too low.

    I'm a photo professional and have been using Photoshop for over 20 years. I use the 'auto' adjustment for photos all the time, but, only as a starting point. It pretty much always needs to be tweaked, but it's also almost always a better starting point fixing several issues right away with one click. This feature in Resolve is the same thing, a better starting point. No idea why people avoid it.

  • @eddyjuillerat835
    @eddyjuillerat835 Před 3 lety +1

    - Like some mentioned before me, the A button is bascially good but we need to have some tweaking possibilities on this. It would be no more an "automatic" thing. Like say Alex, it can be used in many good ways, he ca be tweaked a little with the opacity factor.
    - My problem with the A button is that it's a "machine" way of sorting values. It's good to make fast adjustments but these changes ARE ALMOST NEVER WHAT OUR HUMAN EYE WANT TO SEE. It's like an hard-light filter in Photoshop, it's harsh, hightlights looks over the top (even if they are sticking to the max value).
    - So for my own experience, I stick to the classical way of balancing and color grading shots for any end result (seems obvious).
    - For previewing shots, before editing, I take one shot for every "style" of shots, I make a really basic grade in 1 node, save it the grades gallery, and apply it to the shots while editing. Then I edit with a smooth grading. It's not so fast than the A button but it's closer to what I want in the end.
    Thanks for all the good tutorials. Sheers from Switzerland.

    What does the transition look like when each color node occurs? Does each node look like an on off switch ? First of two nodes is the overall color correction and second node is the serial node that correct each shot, right ? So the hot button I creat does that process for me ending with two color nodes, right.

    It is also in Lightroom and Photoshop. In Lr I use it all the time as a starting point. I didn't know it is available in DR too. I'm only half-way the 900 page manual.
    I wonder what would happen if you use parallel nodes and sample different frames, one frame for each node. Would you get some kind of mean result? I'll have a shot at that.

  • @GrantSR
    @GrantSR Před 3 lety

    You never say what happens to the first set of adjustments (by clicking the button) when I make a second set of adjustments (by clicking the button). Is that first set of adjustments completely forgotten, entirely replaced by the second set? If so, is it possible to save the adjustments for each separate frame and transition between them? Would that be wise? It would cause the adjustments for a particular element in the video (such as a storefront) to fluctuate. But that would also be closer to how our eyes and brains automatically adjust from moment to moment.

  • @colinire15
    @colinire15 Před 3 lety

    If you add a serial, a parallel or a layer node to the first node where you applied the auto colour and then for example add a LUT to the new node. When you then try to alter the key output gain on the node containing the LUT it alters the results of the auto mode in the first node as well. Is there a solution to this?
    UPDATE: I have noticed that even with just the one fresh serial node (no auto colour added), if I add a LUT to that and try to alter the gain output, it fades out the picture completely instead of just the effect of the LUT. Any idea where I'm going wrong?

    Little different matter: I noticed, that when using color wheels, often you have to apply very subtle, small changes to the values.

Like pressing an additional key (Ctrl, Alt?)
