TLDR: There are two versions of the Parquet file format, but adoption of Version 2 is slow due to limited compatibility in major engines and tools. While Version 2 offers improvements (smaller file sizes, faster write/read times), these gains are modest, and ecosystem support remains fragmented. If full control over the data pipeline is possible, using Version 2 can be worthwhile; otherwise, compatibility concerns with third-party integrations may outweigh the benefits. Parquet remains dominant, and its utility far surpasses these challenges
Literally every color grading example shows log footage as the "before". Of course this lacks contrast and vibrancy because it's not meant to be watched "as is". Please show me regular footage as a baseline so it's a fair comparison.
