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 :)
Today 3 years ago we got the announcement of the new project hinted by Jim.
3 years ago today, I immediately bought one (and then bought a second one).
I might have misunderstood, but we were buying into a revolutionary portable media machine, powered by RED minds.
Something that would allow us...
I am transitioning to a airplane only gear, for the next year or so.
I am letting go of my 2 red bricks and charger for lighter options (1 small battery for traveling and rental on location...)
Batteries are perfect and have tons of life in it. They have been barely used for one year. Compared...
It would be great if a similar feature to Premiere CC could be implemented in Redline-X. Where you can select a playback resolution, and a paused resolution.
It will greatly help still/motion workflows.
I just finished a shoot for a new client. First time I put the Epic-W on some serious pace. I had some issues and some good things.
I shot pretty much everything at f/5.6, ISO800, and with Sigma ART 50mm as the main lens. Few with the 35mm ART. I shot mainly at 1/125th because I had to grab...
My Epic-W barely records audio. I moved the gain all the way up, but it still records only the sound of the shutter (if I have it). Nothing else. A person talking 6 ft from camera is completely mute.
Is it normal?
I used RED since the time of the RED One, but it is only over a year since I decided to own one and use it as my main camera, for motion, and as much as possible for stills. I come from a photo background, and the hardest thing to wrap my head around was the concept on how RED was handling ISO...
In RedcineX (or other raw access), raw R3D files.
I know Iso is a step adjustment, and exposure is 0.001 micro adjustments.
Is there any difference in the way they adjust the image? Like FLUT vs ISO. Or are they the same thing?
In other terms, is it the same if I go from iso 800 to iso 1600 vs...
I just put the DSMC2 V-Lock battery module on my epic-W and powered it the first time.
Battery shows voltage only. No percentage nor time.
Any advice on what the issue could be? Camera is on the latest firmware. I haven't tried reinstalling it yet.
Does the DSMC2 V-Lock battery module requires an expander module to function, or does it function as a stand alone attached to the back of the camera?
I was going to buy one today, but I got told that it needs a base expander to work. Is it correct?
So the only cableless solution for v-mount...
I read around a bit, but I would like to get some opinions from REDusers who used the motion mount.
I usually shoot at 24 or 60, sometime 72. Small crew, minimal setup. So I was considering the Canon motion mount rather than a set of ND filters.
Currently i am getting by with 2 screw-on filters...
I have a bunch of M glass for my Leica, but I have been mainly using Zeiss ZE on my RED (Epic Dragon). I have the M mount, but it is limiting for the wide angles.
I have been able to pull decent stills out of footage using the Zeiss. But I am missing a bit of that Leica feel. My work is mainly...
