For more information, see the DaVinci Resolve manual section named 'applying a LUT within a
node' in the 'using LUTs' chapter
Using three nodes to convert a film scan using LUTs, node 1
converts from negative or print to linear, node 2 converts from
linear to Rec. 709, and node 3, if required, inverts the color
Applying a LUT within a node will clip any image data falling below 0 and above 1. To prevent
clipping, you can use the Lift/Gamma/Gain controls within any node with a LUT applied to adjust
your image levels prior to the transform applied by the LUT within that node.
The format of the film you're scanning and the way the material was originally shot both
affect the framing. You can adjust the final framing of your scanned clip by resizing, zooming,
stretching, panning, tilting, and more. On the 'color' page, open the 'sizing' palette and use the
'input sizing' mode to create the necessary framing. To save your sizing preferences as a preset,
open the menu, select 'save as new preset' and enter a name for your preset.
Once you've created an appropriate sizing preset for a given type of media, you can apply
that preset to multiple film scans all at once, in either the color page or in the media pool using
the 'change input sizing preset' command, found in the contextual menu of selected clips.
For more information on sizing, see the 'sizing and image stabilization' chapter in the DaVinci
Resolve manual.
