I don't edit that much these days, so I'm a little rusty. I don't know if this is a known issue or not.
I've taken on a project that involves editing 40 short segments with 1 minute discussions in a panel. We filmed with a Sony FS7; 1080@25p with a Sony SLog3 profile. I've linked the footage into MC 8.5.0 directly, applied the appropriate colour adapter, and everything apparently plays nice.
But as I try to give this a little grade, it brakes apart as if it's badly compressed 8-bit footage already pushed to the limit with the LUT in the colour adapter.
To check source integrity, I drop a source file into Premiere. It looks perfect 10-bit, can be pushed in every direction, no visible noise or artefacts. But in MC it just looks horrible.
What basic step did I miss here? Something obviously goes wrong on the way into Avid, but I don't know where to start looking for it.
This is on an iMac Retina 5k running OS X 10.11.4. Bin info says I'm using the MSP_MXF plug-in and the footage is XAVC Intra 100.
