Change Depth [CD]

The Change Depth tool has one simple use; to change the bits per color channel used to process a tool. The single control for this tool is Depth, which contains five buttons. Select Keep to leave the color depth as is, or either 8 bit, 16 bit or Float to change to the selected color depth.

This tool is often used after color correcting Cineon files, converting from Float processing to 16 bit per channel to preserve memory and performance.
