Footage shot on iPhone 15 Pro blown out when I drop it into a Premiere Pro timeline

[Lynsey0D44]

Hi,

This seems to happen only with footage shot on an iPhone 15 Pro. I'm working on PP (24.6.4 but it was also doing it on 24.6.3).

I have attached a screen grab of the image blown out in the timeline and a screenshot of the raw footage. I have also attached my sequence settings. If I have forgot to add any details you need to know, apologies in advance.

Thanks,

Lynsey

@Lynsey0D44,

Someone with more color settings expertise will chime in. I do not see this on iPhone 15 footage of various types.

But I think we need to know more about the footage: what format, etc. A screenshot from MediaInfo in tree view is always helpful.

You don't have your color management options set. So of course you don't get good out. And yea, because we now have so many options users may need to be using, it is more complicated.

For this, you need auto detect log and auto tonemapping on. Then use only export presets to match your sequence color space.

In this case, you're using Rec.709/SDR sequence color space, so use export presets that do not have HLG or PQ in the preset name.

Check your camera settings and switch off HDR. This will make life a lot easier for you - unless you really need HDR. I hope the advice helps.

Cheers,
