Is the /i lens metadata available live in the SDI output?

[Marcus Struzina]

Ok just wondering if I've missed something obvious but is the /i lens metadata such as focus distance
available or somehow able to be extracted live from the sdi stream. Or is there another way to access it
in realtime?

Hi Marcus,

Can your request be solved by turning the overlays on down the SDI monitoring path of the red?

Menu - monitoring - sdi - overlays on.

Thanks Craig, I've asked my question badly, I'm really after the /i lens metadata as a data stream for virtual production camera intergration. On the DSMC cameras is it accessible through SDI stream?

Hi Marcus,

Not sure TBH but I'd be interested to know for sure.

A question for RED HQ tech team...
