Blackmagic Design released a new version of its flagship video editor, DaVinci Resolve. The public beta version of the upcoming v21 is an interesting one, as it also caters quite a lot of tools for photographers now.
The new Photo tab brings advanced "node-based" tools, familiar from the video side, to photographers. This means that Hollywood-level color processing can now be applied directly to images. The Photo tab also includes full support for RAW images, albums, and direct camera connection (tethering) with Sony and Canon cameras.
These features seem like an open attack against Adobe Lightroom, as noted by many people on social media since the announcement.
Another significant thing about the version 21 is that it brings tons of new AI tools for video editing. To mention some, AI Face Age Transformer allows aging or rejuvenating faces with a slider and AI CineFocus is an AI-powered post-capture focus adjustment.
AI UltraSharpen and Motion Deblur improve low-resolution footage and remove motion blur. This means that a potentially failed clip can be subsequently improved with the help of AI.
In addition, DaVinci Resolve includes an AI Speech Generator, meaning speech can be created from text. The program can clone the user's own voice based on just a 10-second sample.
In addition, the update brings numerous improvements to graphics tools and audio, such as Fairlight folders to facilitate track management. All new features and the beta download link can be found on Blackmagic Design's website.
