If, however, you then want to do editing changes back in premeire or add effects in after fx, after coloring you will have to render and that would be a roundtrip. If you do all your editing cuts in premeire and than want to color in resolve, there's no roundtripping, just an export. But if it's a real shoot with multiple scenes and special fx and audio issues, premiere is clearly better. Davinci's editing is okay if you just need a few scenes put together. I do see what you are getting at - it would be great to somehow be able to switch into Resolve to grade some footage and then switch back to your editor and instantly have graded footage in your timeline - but that's not unfortunately how it works. I take my hat off to anyone who uses it professionally and at speed! I find Resolve's new editing capabilities a bit clunky, and also it would involve transcoding all my GH2 footage, so I much prefer to edit in Sony Vegas and export the final shots into Resolve using a Resolve-friendly format, and then export the finished footage back into Vegas for adding titles etc - so yes, you have to round-trip between programs - but Resolve is worth it if you have the time (and the need) to do it (and can put in the hours required to learn what it can do). You don't have to use it for every shot - you could just load the ones you want and treat those. I guess it is complicated depending on what you're used to, but it can be well worth it to do things which couldn't be done with conventional software, for example being able to track and correct moving objects within an image.
