Question

Is there a third party plug-in for color correction that has Resolve-like controls?

I've searched and searched, but haven't found any color tools that have features not in Lumetri, outside of things like a skin tone overlay (useful), guided color correcting (as in RG Colorista IV, which is a bit of a kludge if you've got the basics covered). 

 

There's a wealth of "look" generating plugs, and that's not what I'm asking about.  I want to know if there's a tool that puts the basic tools of color correction on par with Resolve, to do that work you do before you start adding looks.

 

I've read many forums, and the consensus is that Resolve simply has better tools than Premiere.  If that's so, and Premiere is extensible with third party plug-ins and extensions, it should be feasable to make Pr into a competitive product, color-correction-wise, right?

So, is there anything out there that I've missed?  Is there a developer willing to take on this challenge, and make one?

 

I think the Four Way Color tool in Magic Bullet Looks would be great to have as a stand-alone plug-in.  Looks is pretty cool, but it's very limited for doing shot to shot color correction, and wasn't built for that.  You can't do shot comparisons or send the video to a second display without an external video card.

Take a look at this tutorial, and please tell me if there's anything available like it:

Thank you.
