Not sure how that videographer is shooting in those conditions without gloves! 🤪

They stopped providing any major updates to FCPX and the workflow on DaVinci is just so much more intuitive and faster. There are also plenty of small QOL improvements to DaVinci that add up. Overall it seems like Apple have mostly abandoned FCPX whereas Blackmagic are constantly improving DaVinci.

Also DaVinci is cross platform so it's nice being able to edit on my much more powerful PC if the project calls for it.

Interesting I feel the complete opposite. I tried resolve following all the hype and no doubt it’s fully fledged etc but I find fcpx so much more intuitive and most importantly fast. I’m so much slower in davincie resolve. Fcpx is amazing in my opinion. It does everything that resolve does just much more easily.

Same. If you think of Final Cut like a good camera body, customizable with your own choices for extensibility, it's absolutely amazing. Been using it every day in a corporate/commercial environment for nearly a decade and still enjoy it.

Just tried it out...it's decent, but missing some pretty crucial stuff. Seems to not be able to record in HDR, which is pretty weird. It only shows you focus-peaking before you hit record, but there's no way to see the focus peaking while recording (makes manual focus a bit difficult). It also doesn't have any options for setting manual focus-racking start/end points-- Filmic still has more features than this.

HDR under color space. Rec2020 and P3D65.

I get where you’re coming from actually. For me FCPX is kinda like enhanced iMovie. Great for quick simple edits but when I want something a bit more involved (especially anything that involves grading) I use DaVinci

As ProRaw is about 10GB per minute, I am wondering why you would. You can theoretically get up to 1Gbps but that's unusual depending on your Wi-Fi connection, proximity etc.

But yeah it's possible but you'd have a high risk of it failing for those file sizes from my experience.

Recently I shot several videos for 5-30 minutes (in H265) and I found it easier, faster, and more reliable to transfer it directly to an iCloud drive and download it to the same iCloud drive on my Mac using 4/5G.

USB-C on the iPhone 15 Pro, will be great for this, also a massive reason why 2TB of internal storage will be beneficial, I wonder if you can attach USB-C storage options to the bottom of the new iPhone?

edit you can!

Noticed this too. Also, compared to Filmic Pro, that lags as soon as I turn on any type of stabilization.

Great but external stabilization can never be 100% replaced by software, it definitely has a different look and feel, even if you do it offline in Resolve or FCPX. IMO there's a place for both

For sure, there's a spot for both, I prefer FCPX for editing, and not that I do too much coloring myself, but Resolve is miles ahead with this

Love FCP, but it would be nice to have some solid editing upgrades built in to the system. Right now, text-based editing be the one.
 
Well, I’ll download it and see if it really gets the 4K video into the box that holds my version of Resolve Studio. If that happens then the app is a keeper!
 
Also, Resolve is better than Final Cut, Premier Pro and Avid (apart from big budget jobs). I came from Avid and many from PP who could no longer handle the glitches and hang ups. Resolve is that good now.
