Review on πŸŽ›οΈ Blackmagic Design Davinci Resolve Micro Panel: Compact & Portable Control Interface for Enhanced Productivity by Roderick Reynolds

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Okay, but a bit restrictive

So this panel is great for basic color grading, but the mini panel is so much more useful it's hard to recommend. I know the mini panel is much more expensive, but the micro panel is very limited in some respects. For example, there is no button to add a daisy chain, you cannot adjust curves, power windows, etc. Also, you can't use any of the ring dials as a jog wheel in edit mode, but neither can the mini-panel. That said, it's still a really well-built device. For basic color grading this is fine, but I feel like what I would most wish for was that this was better suited to the mini panel and scaled very quickly. If you buy a micropanel you still need to use a mouse, shortcuts and a keyboard as this is only good for basic initial fixes.

Pros
  • Alright!
Cons
  • So far so good
