  • 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 :)

Nikon SLR Footage

This is quite surprising. No body is coming forward with Nikon+RED footage. I have been looking for it for couple of weeks. Nobody is talking about it.:shiftyph34r: :unsure: :sad: :umm:
 
If Dusty has got his, there must be others as well who have got them. But no footage yet.:shiftyph34r:
 
True. Seems the few that purchased third party Nikon mounts haven't been that generous with sharing or either are too busy. I would suspect the bulk of the Nikon mounts will be purchased thru RED. After which, by shear number of owners, there is bound to be available footage posted.
 
I can't post any footage at the moment (internet too slow, and on a MacBook Pro) but I here are some screen grabs of some footage I shot with Doug's Nikon adapter on my RED. Below a Nikon 17-35mm (Toucan), Nikon 80-200mm + Cannon 500D diopter (termites, tree frog) and Nikon 80-200mm (Jungle cat)

Wow. That gives great hope for Nikon lens use.

Those are some of the nicest stills posted that I have seen.

Did you work the color/contrast in Redcine or some other package?
 
Thanks Ed for the the great images. I just got my Nikon Mounts from Doug today, but no Red yet. It should ship soon.

All the footage is 4k 16:9. No proper color correction, ASA 320.
Just a simple 'S' curve applied and raised the saturation in REDCINE.

Images are quite clean, but there is some noise in all the blacks, which is a shame, not horrible, but reminiscent of film.
 
Awesome !!!, Please post 4k stills.


Q: whats the difference between Doug's mount and Red's Nikon mount.

My Red is ready to go but I'm waiting until a nikon mount is available
 
Kaz - Doug sent me an e-mail telling me to send payment via PayPal and then he sent a Nikon mount. It is a simple little plate with a Nikon mount screwed to it. Looks like it will work great. Now I just need my camera to arrive.

The main difference is Doug's Nikon mount is shipping. No one knows what cool stuff Red is doing with their mount.

Now show me the footage!!!!!


Mahalo,

I'm guessing not a lot. Doug's mount is a very simple elegant solution. Buy Doug's rather than wait around.


b.t.w thanks for all the comments on the stills guys!
 
Wow, I lovet it, keep posting plz
 
Fantastic shots, Ed! Don't want to be too anal but the cat isn't a Jungle Cat (which is an Asian species), I think it is an Ocelot or Margay.
