Work Mavic Pro Platimum 4K H.264 native with Davinci Resolve

From Davinci Resolve supported file formats, we can see that this professional non-linear editing software has perfect compatibility with various file types and formats. H.264 is also included. However, although H.264 is a good delivery file format, it is not a good editing format. The main reason is that H.264 is an 8-bit video format. If you edit it natively, you start to lose image quality as you do color correction or composite gradients to create greenscreen keys. There just isn't a lot of room to work. Transcoding to a higher bit-rate format solves these image quality issues.
