Resolve 21 Brings Pro-Grade Photo Editing, But It Isn’t a Lightroom Replacement
TL;DR Summary
DaVinci Resolve 21 adds a Photo page with native RAW editing and asset management, letting photographers work at source resolution up to 32K and access the full DaVinci color-grading toolset by switching to the Color page; it’s powerful and well-integrated with video workflows, but the workflow is complex and not yet a drop-in Lightroom replacement, with limited RAW support for some brands; the free version covers basics, while Resolve Studio adds AI masking and higher-end features.
