Our take on the Blackmagic Design DaVinci Resolve Studio

DaVinci Resolve Studio is Blackmagic's paid version of its editing, color grading, VFX and audio suite, adding Fusion, Fairlight, stereoscopic 3D tools and extra GPU-accelerated effects over the free edition. It is a one-time lifetime license for one user on up to two devices, with a download delivery and phone, chat and email support. The best new price is $214.40 at B&H Photo-Video-Audio as of November 4, 2026, and two stores list it new. That sits well below Blackmagic's $295 list price, so it is a strong point in its recent range.
