Looks great to me as a big fan of version 8. I wonder if some of the features demoed here are exclusive to the full version or if we get it all in the lite version? He does say it's "free" at the end.

@flash, regarding nodes, it's a simplified nodal system. Basically you add as many instances of color corrections as you want and you can turn them off or rearrange them however you see fit. Each node is a full set of all the corrections Resolve can make - primaries, secondaries, tracks, etc. But it's not quite full nodal compositing as you would see in Nuke or Shake.
