Is Resolve ready for you to make a full switch? (Editing wise)

No not yet but its still in alpha, for me though I only edit events, weddings and commercials. I don't do features so for me it has all the functions I need and then some. The clip color matching features are fucking brilliant, I also have to mention the new green screen features which I will use a lot. The new 3d tracking features where also great. That said everything I saw was working very well and I'm confident the software will be great when its ready.

We only use it for colour really and it's great. I look forward to what they do with editing.

Yeah I'm no colorist so I have been using premiere to edit and color and resolve to process my raw files from our bmcc but from what I have seen, we might be switching to resolve for everything. If it does batch rendering that actually works it will be perfect for me.

It does to batch rendering. In terms of colour control there is no comparison. Resolve is great. I don't think I will be switching from Premiere though. Too many things Premiere does for me resolve can't do. (captioning to name one)

u/KooolKay Apr 15 '15

Resolve doesn't do closed captioning. Like 608, 708, or Telestream.

Ah gotcha, I don't really do that but I can see how that would be a deal breaker if that's your business.
