  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

ISO 500-4000 comparison...

Sorry Jim,

You have to forgive my impertinence.

Sitting here in my comfy chair, sipping my whiskey (a rather nice Manx elixir), completely divorced from the development team and its labours gives me a level of comfort...but also much frustration. I'm sure you know how much we all want to be testers.

Hopefully we wont test your patience too much.

Now about those iso/rez/noise graphs...

Jim, can we see a shot a milk girl holding a res chart lit by a candle in front of a green screen? ;)

But that´s exactly the opening shot of my feature film - acompanied by Igor Kxnydelky´s 6 hour long sonata for solo nose flute.
 
Just wondering... does this burst of ISO gain have anything to do with the new Kodak technology, in re: bayer filtering?
 
Nope, just us getting the best out of the Mysterium. The new Kodak pattern is, I think, unsuitable for high quality digital cinema use.

Then, instead of RED knocking on Kodak's door, the reverse may become true. Congratulations on maximising the technology!
 
We know about the line. That's the first time we've seen it, so we're looking into it.

I mean I understand that that at 4000 that its useless but still. If your doing high res...at 4K does that not run a risk of showing up? What if you are doing CG work and the line pops? is that line of what would look like about maybe 40 to 60 thouand dead pixes a concern.... I know I would not want my camera out of the box to have this issue. Jim what is your reaction and or is this really dead pixels? Will the production cameras have this line? Also if they do what is the point of showing the 4000? Just wondering here as its a big concern in some cases. This issue needs to be resolved in some fashion. The camera is awesome, but I just do not want to see it come with any kind of issue that can be picked at. Awesome camera keep up the fantastic work.

As always Thanks,

Read the posts... it is a bug in the DSP. We are on it. Cameras won't get sold with this. Questions like this make me wonder whether we should post work in progress. You are just going to have to assume we know that we have to fix stuff like this.

Please don't assume that everyone here is operating under the assumption that you (the collective you) don't know what they are doing and please don't shut down the information pipeline due to a few miscreants.
 
we all have to remember these are TEST shots from protoype camera's ..
if we see bugs that stand out, realize the RED team has seen them and is working on em ....
 
The tests are here to "crossing the line" guys. So don't stress the RED team on that. I'm absolutely shure that Jim won't deliver a camera with bugs like that. The RED Team has prooved that they are something special out in the market. So let them do there work.
 
Just talked to the engineers and the fix is in the next build.

Jim
 
We saw the line as soon as we'd taken the shots and got word to the engineers as Jim mentions above. However, we still thought you'd be as excited about the ISO performance as we were. We're proud of what our prototypes can achieve.
 
Allowing us to look in while you perform tests is a privilege we appreciate endlessly. This kind of openness is building unprecedented bonds of trust between the REDUSERS and the REDMAKERS. There are really "never enough" ways to say thanks.
 
Jim,

Even my wife is impressed at the speed of your answer and that the teams response is "like white on rice".

You guys are amazing and in the encyclopedia under the word "dedicated"... is your picture.

Aloha,

Keith
 
I think that's because at RED, we're filmmakers too!
