When converting media to linear gamma, set the Source Space menu to the color
space of your source material. For instance, if your media is full 1080 HD ProRes, then
choose ITU-R BT.709 (scene) for gamma of 2.4. Then, enable the Remove Gamma
checkbox if it isn’t already enabled, to use linear gamma.

When converting from linear gamma for output, you insert the Gamut node before your
output node, which is a Saver in Fusion Studio or a MediaOut node in DaVinci Resolve’s
Fusion page. Make sure the Source Space menu is set to No Change, and set the
Output Space to your output color space. For instance, if your desired output is full
1080 HD, then choose either sRGB or ITU-R BT.709 (scene) for gamma of 2.4. Then,
enable the Add Gamma checkbox if it isn’t already enabled, to format the output of the
Gamut node for your final output.

MediaIn and Loader nodes: MediaIn and Loader nodes have Source Gamma Space
controls in the Inspector that let you identify and remove the gamma curve without the
need to add another node. If your files include gamma curve metadata like RAW files,
the Auto setting for the Curve Type drop-down menu reads the metadata and uses it
when removing the gamma curve. When using intermediate files or files that do not
include gamma curve metadata, you can choose either a log gamma curve by choosing
Log from the Curve Type menu or a specific color space using the Space option from
