At that point, the White Balance changes to As Shot (and the Color Temp and Tint knobs are greyed out, and cannot be changed), Color Space changes to S-Gamut3.Cine, and Gamma changes to SLog3. In order to adjust the white balance, I press the RAW button on the mini panel. Those are also the camera settings of all the clips being graded. My Camera Raw preferences for Sony Raw are set to: Decode Using=Project, White Balance = Daylight, Color Space = S-Gamut, and Gamma = S-Log2. When the RAW button is pressed, the LCD's turn to RAW settings, and in my case display RAW Sony. I would normally go into more detail, but one of the main features of the mini panel to me is the inclusion of controls for Camera Raw. I just received a mini panel today, and my first impressions were very good. I'm sure others will chime in with more ideas. Would it be possible to either set a preference for the Primaries button (wheels or bars) or toggle between the two if you press the Primaries button a second time? The display would always return to the last used option (wheels or bars). I know some folks like the Primaries Bars more than the Wheels. The reset button will reset the node but could a long press of the same button reset the node? Not sure if I'm missing how to do this with the mini-panel but I can grab stills, scroll through stills and play stills via the panel, I just can't apply the grade from the still (or adjust the wipe). The lifted blacks of the displays just don't look as nice as it should. Minor cosmetic thing but the default brightness of the LCD screens is waaaay too high.

When not using Resolve it would be nice for the screens/keys to go dark. For over $3K USD you can include a power cable. Mine arrived with just a type C USB cable. After a few hours of working with it I'd just like to add a few ideas to the suggestion box. Nice solid feel and lots of control packed into a compact space.
