Shooting at a 'lower' res on Epic/Scarlet

[Richard Wilis]

Sorry in advance for the noob question. This has probably been asked/answered before, but I couldn't find it between the wealth of information on this forum :smile5:

When shooting at a lower resolution on an Epic (or Scarlet). Does that mean the image is recorded from the sensor in windowed mode? Which if I'm understanding it correctly, will result in a higher crop-factor. Or is the full-res image captured from the sensor and then processed/downsized in-camera, maintaining the camera's native crop-factor?

Windowed, which is what gives us the higher framerates...

I don't think that Scarlet is likely to crop below 16:9, not much point.
There is supposed to be a full frame 1080p scaled RGB mode too, but no one knows what the recording format will be for that yet.

That makes sense, thanks for answering.
