Color Management Panel

There are a good number of new color management settings and changed color management defaults in the 2022 release. I would expect we will be getting more as we go along. This is becoming a nightmare to manage!

We need a single panel. One with perhaps two tabs:
1) The overall Default options for color management settings, and for default options for various media types.

2) The Override tab for clip or sequence overrides, covering the same items as in no. 1.

Essentially, One Panel To Rule Them All.

Any updates on this? More and more explaining to editors and clients, etc why footage loads in differently. Shoot with 2 cameras with Slog3C (and even same sensor!) - FX6 (MXF) and A7S3 (MP4) and before these new color workflow updates, footage always matched right off the bat, now clients think there is something wrong as with MXF files, SLog3 metadata is read, but not from MP4 files. Seems easy to select correct color space in Resolve, why not yet in Premiere?

This! I know the "R" word might be a no-no, but Adobe engineers please see Resolve's Project Settings window. It has a simple hotkey to open up, and gives all the sequence related settings that you might need, including a Color Management tab where we can pick the right settings for our particular project. There's no "one size fit's all" color management.

One hundred percent, they need to make this happen.

Honestly, I love premiere but every time they make my workflow slower, I am considering other options like Davinci more and MORE.

Please Adobe, listen to your customers and give us the option to turn the default ugly looking LUT OFF!

Thank you

Add the ability to set the color space on the color bar using Input color for media. This is vital for controlling the color process for shots.

We need to rebalance the Lumetri panel and add new tools to fine-tune the color. Now it is difficult to paint the material perfectly with a narrow toolkit. Nowadays, customers require a more complex gradation of color than just highlighting a color and changing its value.

I encourage this solution as well. As a long-time pro photographer, accustomed to color management whether for printing or screen, I am still mystified and challenged by CM issues within PPro.
