What does 16 stop dynamic range ACTUALLY look like on a mirrorless camera RAW file or LOG?

The Apple gamma shift issue should be fixed by know for SDR. Watched some YT video about it linked to Resolve forum, that Rec.709 (Scene) should fix everything, but it is not that straight forward.

If you set your Davinci settings to use Apple Profiles for display, and then use Rec709 for your profile, it gives an accurate output for YouTube, at least it does for all of our workstations

Thanks for the info. I have ”Use Mac display color profile for viewers” and ”Viewers match Quicktime player when using Rec.709 Scene” enabled in Resolve settings. If you google ”viewers match quicktime player resolve” you can find a thread from Resolve forums about the issue, where it is explained which combinations work and which do not.
