Blackmagic - 'DaVinci Resolve Micro Color Panel'
Incredibly Compact Professional ControlThe DaVinci Resolve Micro Color Panel is a compact yet powerful color panel that gives you all the control you need to create cinematic images. The Micro Panel features a row of direct control knobs at the top of the panel, three trackballs with rings for color grading, and transport keys to speed up your grading session. Includes controls for refined color grading including adding windows and a tablet slot designed to hold an Apple iPad. Connects via Bluetooth or USB-C.
Professional Trackballs
adjust the colours in an image based on lift, gamma and gain tonal rangesThe trackballs let you adjust the colours in an image based on lift, gamma and gain tonal ranges. Unlike a mouse and keyboard, you can manipulate multiple trackballs simultaneously to create unique effects. The smooth gliding rings around the trackballs let you set master levels and establish dynamic contrast. Keys above each trackball reset the colour adjustment, level adjustment or both. Three keys at the top of the DaVinci Resolve Mini and Micro Panels let you switch between primary and log wheel modes, activate offset, temperature and tint controls and turn on your full screen viewer output. The DaVinci Resolve Advanced Panel has a fourth master gain trackball to adjust the entire image.
Primary Adjustment Controls
target specific tonal and hue rangesPrimary adjustment controls affect the luminance and chrominance of your entire image using a variety of tools that target specific tonal and hue ranges. These tools represent the most common adjustments required to produce dynamic imagery, making them a popular choice for photographers, graphic designers and colourists working on a tight deadline. The DaVinci Resolve Micro Panel and Mini Panel include 12 primary colour correction control knobs that make it easy to quickly adjust image contrast, saturation, hue, temperature, tint, midtone detail, colour boost, shadows, highlights and more. All knobs can be pressed to instantly reset the control so you can easily experiment with new looks!
Y Lift, Y Gamma and Y GainThe dedicated lift, gamma and gain knobs, which are sometimes referred to as shadows, midtones and highlights, allow you to adjust the luminance, or brightness, of each specific area of an image’s tonal range. With these specific controls, you adjust brightness without affecting colour saturation.
Contrast and PivotContrast is used to change the tonal difference between light and dark parts of an image. Pivot adjusts contrast "balance" which can offset the contrast tonal ranges. Once contrast is set, use pivot to refine the tonal centre of tonality, brightening or darkening the image while retaining contrast.
Midtone DetailIncreasing or decreasing midtone detail changes the contrast on edge details in an image. Adjusting midtone detail changes the perception of sharpness and definition. It can be used to accentuate the stubble on an actor’s face, make a scene look sharper, or to gently defocus skin for beauty work.
Colour BoostColour boost intelligently adjusts areas of low saturation in an image while leaving heavily saturated areas alone. This results in a more subtle and natural increase of colour. Sometimes referred to as a vibrance, colour boost is a great way to make colours pop without over saturating the entire image.
Shadows and HighlightsShadow and highlight knobs let you lighten and darken shadow detail or retrieve blown out highlights in high dynamic range images. They do not affect the midtones, allowing you to achieve a smooth blend and more natural result between the retrieved areas of the image and the unadjusted midtones.
SaturationUse to adjust overall image saturation. At higher values, colours appear more intense, while at lower values colour diminishes. Saturation can be decreased completely until all colour is gone, leaving a grayscale image. Combine with contrast and pivot to produce striking black and white imagery.
HueThe hue knob lets you rotate all hues in an image or selected area around the perimeter of the colour wheel. The default setting is 50, which retains the original unaffected distribution of hues. Use with secondary selections to quickly adjust specific hue ranges, like blue skies or green trees.
Luminance MixThe luminance mix control changes the balance between your colour adjustments and Y, or luminance only adjustments. When using the Y channel lift, gamma and gain controls, a luminance mix of 100 lets you adjust colour independent of brightness, which is ideal for colour balancing and matching footage.
Still Store
save colour correctionsThe still store saves colour corrections in the gallery, along with a preview, so you can re-apply it to other clips later. DaVinci Resolve colour panels have keys to quickly save, preview and recall stills.
Illuminated Keys And Soft Knobs
low lightGrading tends to be performed in low light conditions to ensure a more accurate representation of colors in the grading monitor. The keys and soft knobs on the DaVinci Resolve color panels illuminate when selected so you can easily see which controls are active in low light.
Flexible Power
powered via USBThe DaVinci Resolve Micro Color Panel is fully powered via USB so you can simply plug it into a laptop to get up and running at home, in a studio or on set. That makes it ideal for grading with a portable system on a cart while shooting.
