Sony has released substantial firmware updates for two of its popular full-frame mirrorless cameras, bringing the a7R V to version 4.00 and the a7 IV to version 6.00.

A new French company, HAL Picture, recently released two plugins for DaVinci Resolve and Baselight: Diachromie, for look development, and Diaphanie, designed to add texture to your footage. To learn more about these plugins, we went to Paris, France, to discuss the philosophy of their tools, their vision, and what's under the hood with the three cofounders, Martin, Olivier, and Paul. However, Paul, Olivier, and Martin first started using these high-end tools on their own projects, with no direct interest in selling them.
