DaVinci Resolve Studio 21 — v21.0 Beta 3 for Mac
DaVinci Resolve Studio is Blackmagic Design’s all-in-one post suite—Cut, Edit, Fusion, Color, Fairlight, Media, Deliver, and in v21 a dedicated Photo page for still-image finishing.
Beta 3 (21.0b3) is the third public preview: refinements across Photo, MultiMaster, VR delivery, scripting, and camera capture, plus broad stability fixes. Back up projects before upgrading—projects opened in 21.0b3 may not reopen in Resolve 20.3.2.
