| Ha! :D But, I do believe in some cases it's true because detail is preserved and colors look good, but in others it's so bad it can't be intentional shadows on a sunlit day that make the spot look like a noir film and colors that are on the edge of tearing. I saw some basketball promos the other day for maybe an ESPN (??) highlight show or something, and they suffered from this problem. But when they went back to the live program everything looked good. There's a lot to be said for engineers. On Jun 6, 2012, at 10:42 AM, Robert W. Walker wrote: > That oversaturated, smashed-detail murk is "style," James! ":^) > > Robert W.

Not sure who the impediment to this is whether there's no plug-in SDK for Pr or that no third party has figured it out. Likely the former. In that case, I'm filing a feature request. Please join me.

Maybe I'm doing something wrong since I'm just transitioning from FCP and don't know it as well, but they don't update for me when I'm doing any adjustments ( only after I make them ), and when they do, they are slow to refresh. Have you seen the new scopes in FCPX? They are really nice. >>>> >>>> On a side note, if any Red Giant guys or girls are listening, it would be excellent if Looks had playback capabilities. I think that's a great tool, but still it would be nice if you could play the clips to get a better feel for the look rather than seeing just one frame. Plus, it would be nice to tear off the scopes to another display and scale them up. >>>> >>>> All said, I'm still in the same quandary with my grading tools useless with Kona3.
