Updating hue to +3, because I found that W10 boost red color in it's movieplayer with NX1 HEVC files ??, which I have used. If look the files with Resolve 14 or Vegas 14 or mpc-hc the color are less saturated with red color. Don't know if this changed when I changed GPU from AMD to Nvidia. Or if it has been all the time so. So if anyone is experimenting with these setting, they are now: red 0,98, green 0,97, blue 1,00, sat +0, contrast 0, sharpening -6, hue +3, 16-235, normal gamma Result is less green cast in the picture and hopefully little less pink color in skin tones. Still experimenting...

Bought the Studio. First tried with radeon rx 480, but playback was not good, around 20-25 fps (NX1 UHD files). So I decided to invest to gtx 1080 ti and now playback is totally smooth (29,97 fps) even some fx added. I am happy. Export rendering is not fast. Around 10 fps with my old i7 sandybirdge (4 cores, 8 threads, 4500Mhz oc) But the main thing is smooth playback during editing.

The zip-file must first be unzipped, before copying to the card, thats clear. And pull out the battery for a minute before installing the firmware, just in case.

I don't think you need i-launch. Download zip via https://matteverglade.com/cameras/nx-firmware/, load camera's battery , format in camera/use older sd card (not UHS-II), copy files to the root of card, start camera and enter camera Device Info menu to update. Let is update, maybe shuts and starts during update, don't remember.

I'm glad it helped!

Did you try to adjust the diopter, wheel on the right side of EVF?

Thanks! It's good that w10 home should be fine. Maybe even my rx 480 (at first) Antonis: I have old i7 (was it Sandy Bridge) It doesn't support new technologies.

Could you tell what GPU you have, that runs NX1 files smoothly? Also do you have W10 Home or Pro version? I am thinking to buy Resolve Studio version, but I should also buy Nvidia GPU and maybe (hope not) W10 Pro update.

What is confusing is that this line below is also in the free versions description: "Added support for hardware accelerated HEVC decode on supported NVIDIA GPUs on DaVinci Resolve Studio on Windows and Linux" But yes there is the Studio word. So it must be that there is no support for HEVC in the free Windows Resolve version.

Good to know. Your GPU should be ok. So the problem is maybe Windows related. Do you have W10 pro or Home version?

Marco lets wait for someone who uses Resolve. No hurry with this. At least I am too noob with Resolve to quide its usage.

Well I tried, but I have Amd RX 480 GPU and I doesn't seem to work with HEVC files (NX1) in Resolve. As an Windows 10 home user I am hoping that someone with modern Nvidia GPU can confirm that NX1/NX500 files works in free Resolve 14.01 in W10 system. Also how smooth the playback is with UHD files would be very intresting to know.

Thanks! Must try it today. Edit: Did try, but no luck for me. I have Windows 10 home and AMD GPU. I got a sound but no picture with HEVC.

This should be the tool to use: https://www.sdcard.org/downloads/formatter_4/index.html I have used v.4.0 long time. It was recommended here by someone. This new program seems to be v.5.0. Just downloaded myself.

I have updated my settings. Colors are more in balanced now, but I am still experimenting/testing these. My main interest are skin tones so other colors are what they are. I might still try to find my optimal, general usage, straight from the camera settings and post here if find better. Here are some examples of these settings. These settings work best in Daylight whitebalance. red 0,98, green 0,97, blue 1,00, sat +0, contrast 0, sharpening -6, hue +9, 16-235, normal gamma

For installation look at this Vasile's answer: https://github.com/ottokiksmaler/nx500_nx1_modding/issues/82

Look manual pages 128 and 188. Assign exposure lock to AEL button.

I would like to share my resent settings that I have used couple days (only). What I am looking for with these settings is to reduce the pink/red tone in skin tones that shows sometimes in hands and faces. Moving the HUE to the right direction helps. I also need to reduce the green color at the same time. There is some problems with some other colors, but I can live with that. At least right now it feels like that. The skin tones have been better now to my eyes. red 1,00, green 0,97, blue 1,00, sat +0, contrast 0, sharpening -4, hue +12, 16-235, normal gamma. These settings are not fully tested in various conditions, but if anyone has this same issue with skin tones, you may want to try these.

I meant normal gamma AND master black level set to default 0. (with dr gamma settings the saturation was set to +1)

I am not an expert, only experimenting what I could get. But with DR Gamma it is possible to go negative values without crushing blacks. But I quess not much sense if you are going to do post adjustment to the image. The image was close to what I get with normal gamma.

I was using Master black level -8 when I shot with DR Gamma. Luminance 16-235. I was after better dynamic range in high lights and baked in colors same time. The problem was that the colors where not strong enough. High light dynamic range was better. Now I use Normal gamma.

Yes, and if I may say you could have been shot more that beautiful woman. She is a flower herself. But I understand that she was not the object of this video. Sorry.

Beautiful landscape. I would have liked more if landscape clips had been longer and some flower clips not so short and many. But nice video.

Glad it helped

So first you select "gamma normal" in the video menu. After that close the menu. Press navigation button gown, picture wizard opens. Then you can move left and right with navigation button. When you see something like "Custom setting" there is small arrow in top of that. Then press navigation button UP and menu opens where you can set values. Finally press OK and settings are saved.
