Camera Raw workflows?

[scathontiphat]

Hi all, 

My background is in photography, and i'm so much more comfortable with photoshop and camera raw.  I have both a HD Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera, and 5d mkii that i'm messing around with shooting raw video.  When color correcting in DaVinci Resolve i do a HORRIBLE job.  But if i just open one DNG file in photoshop i can correct just how i see it.  But photoshop craps itself if i try to open a whole 10mins worth of cinema DNG files to try to "sync all" for the dng files.  Anybody have any tips/suggestions for a workflow that uses photoshop or lightroom for color correcting Cinema DNG clips (and not just a few second clip) before i bring them into resolve?

thanks!

Photographer here, too. You should be able to do as much with the Camera Raw panel in Resolve as in Photoshop. Can you post examples of how your results differ as well as screenshots of what you've done in the resolve panels and photoshop raw?
