Color issue in premiere 2019

[kinartos]

I have problem with the color of the file in premiere pro 2019

I try to import file from Red prores, and canon 80d but still different color from quicktime to premiere pro.

sorry for order, but reed from 1 to 4.

Do you have your screen correctly color calibrated ?

[kinartos]

it's not a screen calibration, I look the file from the same monitor (imac pro 5k) If I put the file in DaVinci resolve, look flat and good like if I open the file with quicktime.

Quicktime is known for having a gamma issue.

"Variants of this question have been covered to death on this and every other color grading forum. The answer is always the same.  The only way to get a [proper] image you can trust is to run SDI [or HDMI] out to an accurately calibrated reference monitor.  Grading by viewing the image in the GUI just doesn't work."  - Jamie LeJeune

The above was posted in the Blackmagic forums about DaVinci Resolve, but it applies to all NLE's.

You must have one of two viewing environments set up.

1. A dedicated I/O card (AJA Kona, Blackmagic Intensity, etc.) to a calibrated monitor.

2. An export from Premiere Pro played from hardware to a calibrated monitor.

How it looks on the calibrated monitor is all that matters.

QuickTime player and most web browsers are using a different gamma interpretation from what is specified by the ITU for Rec709, so you cannot trust the colors that you see there.  I recommend using VLC player for viewing files outside of PPro.
