Epic Q&A

[Tim Bradley]

Pretty sure it's 1/2 debayer - Stuart?

Playback is not enabled on the current build (that I have).

I thought I read that HD SDI is a full bayer output.

Cheers, Tim

I've asked this question in several threads along with several other people and sent a PM to someone at RED. I think a lot of people would love to know this information, considering how recording to a KiPro or PIX system is becoming a dailies and even master recording solution for some. Maybe I missed the answer somewhere on the forum!!!

According to Jim on 8-22: "It is coming."

You mean that we can find the information in the "According to Jim" sitcom, season eight, episode 22, titled "It is coming".. It's such a pity since the the series stopped at episode 12..
I know now why ABC killed the series, so we may not get that valuable information.. Does ABC owns any of RED (Epic) Competitors??

There has been conflicting information on this front. Jarred posted a firm "no" a few weeks ago, stating that RED Drive owners could trade in for a 50% credit towards SSDs. That said, Ted has been quoted in an interview at NAB a few days ago stating that RED Drives would be usable with an adapter cable. Awaiting clarification.

So, 6 months later, would you know what is the policy now ?
Can we use Reddrives with Epic X ?

Reddrives do not and will not work with Epic or Scarlet. They only work with Red One cameras.

Thank you, is this official news from RED or a personal opinion ?
And then what about the: "Jarred posted a firm "no" a few weeks ago, stating that RED Drive owners could trade in for a 50% credit towards SSDs."
Would someone know ?
Thanks again

Hey all,

I have 2 questions for you. 1-is there a way to maximize the LCD image to show full screen like the R1 did? 2- I noticed when we first shot with our Epic the SSD % was on all the time, now its faded to almost nothing until it gets to like 35% left on cards. Was that a setting I touched by accident? I didn't read anything about both these questions in the manual.

Thanks
Spike
