To ripple camera raw adjustments across multiple clips:
1 First, you must select a range of clips in the Color page timeline.
2 Open the Camera Raw palette, and make whatever adjustments are necessary to the
current clip. The name of each parameter you adjust changes to amber, showing you
which parameters have been modified, and which have not.
3 To ripple your changes, do one of the following:
Click the Use Changes button to ripple only the altered parameters (in amber) to the
other clips you’ve selected in the Timeline. This preserves differences between clips
in the parameters you haven’t adjusted (in gray).
Click the Use Settings button to ripple every parameter of the current clip to the
other clips you’ve selected, overwriting all the camera raw settings at once.

Clip Decoder Settings
There’s much more information on the various format-specific Master settings, as well as the
occasionally format-specific Clip Decoder settings, in Chapter 5, “Camera Raw Settings.”
However, with the exception of the RED Clip Decoder settings that appear for R3D clips, most
other formats share a set of DaVinci Resolve-specific controls that provide wide-latitude access
to the raw image data for purposes of making different kinds of adjustments.
Camera Raw Clip Decoder settings for BRAW media
While specific raw formats have individual controls, the standard controls include:
Color Temp: Designed to alter the “warmth” of the image. Adjustable in degrees
Kelvin. Lower values correct for “warmer” lighting, while higher values correct for “cool”
lighting. +6500 is unity. The range is +2000 to +50,000.
Tint: Color balance correction for images with a green or magenta color cast, such as
fluorescent or sodium vapor bulbs. 0 is unity. The range is –150 to +150.
Exposure: Increases or lowers image lightness in units relative to ƒ-stops. If your
intended exposure adjustment lifts image data above the maximum white level, don’t
worry; all image data is preserved and can be retrieved in subsequent adjustments. 0 is
unity. The range is –5 to +5.
