The CinemaDNG RAW Properties Panel provides full control over how CinemaDNG files are decoded, processed, and color-managed for both playback and export.
Decode & Color Settings
Decode Quality Adjusts the playback and render quality of CinemaDNG RAW footage. Higher settings yield better image fidelity at the cost of performance.
Log Processing Sets the Log Color Space used when decoding the CinemaDNG RAW file.
Destination Color Level Choose how the output color range is handled or converted:
Full Range (Label) – Default; tags output as Full Range
Full Range (Convert) – Converts from Video Range to Full Range
Video Range (Label) – Tags output as Video Range
Video Range (Convert) – Converts from Full Range to Video Range
