Today we released public beta 4 of DaVinci Resolve 21 which adds improvements and bug fixes for Resolve effects on still images, AI CineFocus visual quality, AI beauty tools, keyframe editor workflows and immersive video support.

For the photo page, Resolve FX now behave more reliably when transforming still images. If you resize or reposition a photo with an effect applied, overlays and on screen controls now remain correctly aligned, making it easier to fine tune adjustments without interruption. The update also improves transparency handling for effects on stills, remembers effect favorites between app launches and fixes warper tool behavior on photos so you can more accurately reshape and manipulate images.

There is also more accurate highlight representation for Canon CR2 and CR3 images. This means bright areas in photos retain a more natural appearance and no longer look darker than expected when grading or compositing.

On the Edit and Cut pages, the keyframe editor now supports Fusion motion paths and other modifiers. This allows animation curves, motion paths and linked parameters from Fusion titles, effects and macros to be adjusted directly alongside timeline keyframes. This means editors can now adjust animated graphics and Fusion effects directly in the keyframe editor, making complex animations faster and easier to refine.

For DaVinci Resolve Studio users, AI CineFocus has been improved to produce more realistic shallow depth of field effects. Better and Faster modes now handle subtle blur more cleanly, while reductions in edge shimmer, stair stepping and halos help foreground subjects separate more naturally from backgrounds. This is especially useful when simulating lens focus effects on interviews, close ups or archival footage.

AI beauty tools have also been refined with the blemish removal tool allowing greater precision for facial area so corrections stay focused only where needed, and better support for alpha layer workflows with the face refinement tool. This makes it easier to isolate and track facial adjustments automatically, reducing the need for manual masking when working on beauty, fashion or interview shots.

In addition, this update adds support for Insta360 native colorspace along with improved DNG decode handling with color value and profile look table support for more consistent image reproduction.

Today we released public beta 3 of DaVinci Resolve 21 which adds improvements and bug fixes across MultiMaster collaboration workflows, still image capture and color management, graphics workflows, and immersive video support.

This update improves collaborative workflows with more flexible MultiMaster trim selection, allowing each user to independently choose trims per timeline without affecting other users. This means colorists with Dolby Vision capable displays and dailies editors with laptops can choose different active trims without affecting one another.

This beta also includes improvements for the photo page, including support for live camera capture from Sony Alpha 7 V cameras, allowing you to capture, grade and organize an entire shoot without leaving DaVinci Resolve. There are also new photo page capture controls for camera orientation, a capture option to add photos to a new album and improved photo thumbnail information for small thumbnail widths. This update also adds support for colorspace and gamma controls for NEF sRAW stills, better chromatic aberration and distortion correction of RAF stills and greater image editor compatibility for exported sRGB HEIC files. Plus, there’s now support for decoding Panasonic Lumix RW2 files.

DaVinci Resolve 21 Beta 3 adds new scripting APIs for AI based workflows including IntelliSearch analysis, Slate analysis, motion blur removal and background task controls, along with improvements to the updated Macro Editor for building Fusion templates and macros more efficiently. There’s also face age transformer improvements for small age changes, bad lighting and partial faces.

In addition, this update improves immersive YouTube render metadata for VR and stereoscopic workflows, including improved Stereo3D VR metadata handling for side by side and top bottom renders, as well as spherical immersive metadata support for YouTube VR video exports.

Blackmagic Design have shared that two URSA Cine 17K 65 digital film cameras and a PYXIS 12K were used to shoot the indie feature film “Bedlam."

“Bedlam” is set in 1750s London and follows bare knuckle boxer Jack Slack (played by Scott Adkins) as he attempts to free his sister from the notorious asylum that gives the film its name. Its world is defined by firelight, smoke, and constrained interiors, all of which placed significant demands on the cinematography. Jon Sheikh’s vision was for the dramatic sequences to carry as much narrative weight as the film’s fight scenes, with the visual approach needing to support that balance with consistency and detail.

Today we announced that Blackmagic PYXIS 12K has been added to the Netflix Approved Camera List. Officially titled “Cameras and Image Capture: Requirements and Best Practices”, the list highlights the capture requirements necessary to be qualified as an approved camera by the streamer, including dynamic range, resolution, codec, workflow compatibility and more. Netflix requires 90% of a program’s final total runtime to be captured on approved cameras.

The list already includes the Blackmagic URSA Cine 17K 65, Blackmagic URSA Cine 12K LF, Blackmagic URSA Mini Pro 12K OLPF and URSA Mini Pro 4.6K G2 amongst its approved systems.

Blackmagic PYXIS 12K is a high end digital film camera that produces precise skin tones and rich organic colors. It features an extremely versatile design that lets you build the perfect camera rig for your production! You get a full frame 12K sensor with wide dynamic range with a built in optical low pass filter that's been designed to perfectly match the sensor. Plus there are 3 models available in either EF, PL or L-Mount. You also get 2 x CFexpress media recorders and Ethernet for sharing media to Blackmagic Cloud! It even records both 12-bit Blackmagic RAW and extremely small H.264 proxies files at the same time!

Blackmagic PYXIS 12K features a large full frame sensor with a native resolution of 12288 x 8040! That's almost three times larger than a Super 35 sensor and lets you shoot with a shallow depth of field or use anamorphic lenses uncropped for a true cinematic look. Whether you’re shooting in bright light or in almost no light at all, the massive dynamic range with high performance sensor provides stunning low noise images in all lighting conditions. Plus, PYXIS lets you shoot up to 112 fps. This amazing sensor combined with Blackmagic color science gives you the same quality as the most expensive digital cinema cameras.
