I had this same exact issue. You need to go to sequence settings and make sure "working color space" is set to rec 709. You may have to re-do your color grading after setting it as the pictures are now overexposed on the timeline. But this way the picture won't overexpose after export.

Short story:

 

The phone is set to shooting HLG, an HDR form. Even bringing the highs down with Lumetri controls on an SDR/Rec.709 timeline so they look fine will get ignored on export.

 

So ... go to the project panel. Select one or more clips. Right-click/Modify/Interpret Footage.

 

Go to the bottom, to the new color management controls. Set the Override option to Rec.709.

 

And maybe ... set your phone to shoot SDR/Rec.709 files to avoid the hassle.

I am more than happy to provide you with the clip for you to check on one of your rigs.

As I am experiencing it, every clip I upload from an iPhone, GoPro, and Insta360 go2 shows a rec. 709 colorspace with full range. I wonder is there a way to export "full range" rec. 709?

 

Apologies for the file size, I didn't want to modify it before sending it.


I tried your clip: nothing is over exposed. On import nor on export.

Its a standard mp4 quicktime clip 709 color.

Turn off color managment in the Preferences.

Which player are you using to view the clip outside Premiere?
