A Central Link in the DaVinci Resolve Range
Positioned between the Micro Panel and the Advanced Panel, the DaVinci Resolve Mini Panel adopts the ergonomics favored by colorists and adds dedicated hardware controls and displays. Compared to the Micro Panel, it offers more shortcuts and contextual parameter visualization while remaining compact enough for agile sets and studios.
Who Is It For and What Are Its Uses?
Designed for freelance colorists, editors, and post-production studios, the Mini Panel accelerates look creation, primary and secondary adjustments, node management, and Power Windows. It is suitable for corporate and advertising deliverables as well as documentaries and fiction requiring fast and precise iterations.
Ergonomics and Features Designed for Speed
Intuitive Handling
The control balls dedicated to lift, gamma, and gain ranges, combined with level rings, allow fine and simultaneous corrections. The 12 primary knobs provide direct access to contrast, saturation, hue, temperature, highlights, shadows, and more, with instant reset by pressing.
Contextual Display and Shortcuts
The two 5-inch screens display menus and parameters of the selected tool. The backlit keys provide access to grading functions, the "Log"/"Offset" toggle, and full-screen "Viewer" mode to keep your eyes on the image.
Studio Integration and Mobility
Network via RJ-45 and PoE power simplify installation, while AC or 4-pin DC XLR power supplies secure shoots and grading rooms. The included USB-C cable facilitates connection and updates.
