Last updated 1 month ago

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

    These options are especially helpful when using LUTs that change the effective range of the image.

  • Resolution Set the output resolution of the decoded image and optionally crop width and height independently.


Image Processing

Fine-tune the image using the following controls:

  • Temperature

  • Tint

  • Exposure

Tip: Right-click any control or label to reset it to its default value.


Pre CDL LUT

Apply a 3D LUT before the CDL stage:

  • Set the Destination Color Space for the LUT

  • To clear the LUT:

    • Right-click the "LUT" label and choose Reset

    • Click the Reset icon next to Pre CDL LUT


Image CDL

Apply and adjust CDL (Color Decision List) values:

  • Brightness

  • Contrast

  • Contrast Pivot

  • Saturation

  • Slope

  • Offset

  • Power

Right-click on any control or label to reset that setting. Click the Reset icon next to Image CDL to reset all CDL values at once.


Post CDL LUT

Apply a 3D LUT after the CDL is applied:

  • Set the Destination Color Space for the LUT

  • To clear the LUT:

    • Right-click the "LUT" label and choose Reset

    • Click the Reset icon next to Post CDL LUT
