Hey community,
after importing a .MOV file to my premiere project it gets overexposed right away. When I playback the native file in the finder, everything looks alright. Picture one: File on harddrive. Picture two: File in premiere.
No filters are applied on the clip or timeline. I tried importing the footage to a brand new project. Nothing changed. I even get the same results, when rendering the clip to my hardrive. I'm using MacOS 12.0.1 (21A559). Premiere is version 22.0.0 Build 169. Working on a MacBook Pro 16" 2019. No external screens are connected. You can download the sample file here https://we.tl/t-8Zy0IQCRzO
I can't edit the video because everything looks burned out.
Thank you all for the support.

Hey, thanks.
I've got two FAQs on the whole new color system, and ... a UserVoice request to get us users a single, USABLE contol panel for color management.
The two FAQs cover ... first one: what's changed in Pr2022, how to work with the new system, and what's currently broken like proxies for HLG media; the second is how to setup for HDR monitoring in Pr2022, as that has also changed completely.
FAQ:PremierePro 2022 Color Management for Log/RAW Media
How to Set Monitors for HDR work in Premiere Pro 2022?
And ... they're putting the new CM controls all over the fricking app, wherever they seem to 'fit' to the engineers. Which means users have to hunt for something somewhere unknown ... when we don't even know exactly what it is we're looking for if we see it!
So I've got a request in for a single, unified Essential Color Management Panel ... one panel to rule them all, setting default behaviors/preferences and setting overrides for specific clips.

Dan,
How do you know what your video clips look like straight out of the camera as shot? That being said Premiere Pro can replicate the images straight out of the camera as shot 100% regardless if you use a $1200.00 Dell Laptop or a $3200.00 iMac as seen in the video below. Keep in mind all video editing systems must be setup correct 100% correct as seen in the video below.

I had the same issue and was able to troubleshoot it. It's because you are on an intel mac and that and newer versions of Premiere are written for the m1 chip. It's messed up on Adobe's part that they have not fixed this issue. Import that same footage into Premiere 2021 and see if that fixes it. It will.

I had the same problem with Premier 2022, so I switched back to Premier 2021, and it initially fixed it. Now the issue has spread to 2021 as well. Editing that used to take 15 minutes is now taking longer than an hour, because I'm having to make so many color changes to try to match the look of the footage as it was shot. I don't understand why this hasn't been fixed. I never had any similar issues until 2022 was released.

If you're having issues in 2021, they're not the same thing as the color management changes in 2022. Period. The underlying color is COMPLETELY different between the two versions, they don't share anything in color handling.
Which is why bringing 2021 projects into 2022 can have so many issues. Most any log-encoded media that is 'default' handled as Rec.709 in 2021, will be handled as the new default in 2022 as HLG, as HDR. And yea, that makes bringing many projects from 2021 to 2022 a big mess.
But then I don't normally recommend migrating projects forward anywy. Keep working them in the prior version. Install the newer version and use for new projects ... if at all possible.
So if you're having issues in 2021, start a new thread, detail the troubles, and I'll be happy to jump in and help out.
It's very easy to understand why things changed so dramatically in the 2022 version. Very obvious ... they had to change the app to bring the color handling up to modern standards.
2021 and earlier are all hard-coded as Rec.709 underlying color. Which made setting defaults easy for the engineers, and predictable for the users. But that totally limited the app to a Rec.709 'world'.
2022 and forward versions will not make assumptions, so they can work with either Rec.709 or HDR media. Depending on how the users tell Premiere to work with the clip, sequence, and export color.
And that means from now on, users will HAVE to take responsibility to set their color management details for each project.
And understand, I don't think they "stuck the landing" on rolling out the new color system.
We need more contols, more options to set defaults & such. But those will come over time.
Welcome to the modern world ...

Uninstall the latest premiere and use an older version if you need a quick fix while people figure it out. I didn't have the time with my filming and delivery schedule to wait for this process to be completed. Version 2022 doesnt have any exposure issues. ❤️ goodluck everyone technology can be frustrating but there's always a solution! Hang in there! 🙂 Happy Friday!
