Hi all, Redundead is currently 8 hours with no real update after recovering a whole bunch of files. It has not exited either. I don't know if it's still trying to recover something, or just hung, or what. Anyone know when you should stop redundead if it doesn't exit by itself, and it doesn't...

Hi all, What's the story with this SP70 mount? What is the advantage it holds over other mounts as far as shooting for particular resolutions? Does it help in using the full sensor? Thanks!

Hi, having trouble pulling out the timecode lemo from my EPIC Dragon. Is this normal -- just didn't want to apply too much force before figuring out if there was a special way of pulling it out that I may be unaware of. Thanks for any tips!

Folks, what is everyone doing to sanitize the cameras? Anything different being done for the touchscreens? If anyone has brandnames of approved wipes etc., would love to hear. Thanks!

Hi, To conserve battery power, I'm putting my DSMC2 EPIC in power save mode that it enters after a minute of being idle. But the Teradek MDR.ACI attached to it, and therefore the RT Motion Motor, won't turn off with the camera and continues to stay on, and draw power. The thing is, it seems to...

Hi folks, Just getting to dig into Davinci's DCTL as I want to get to the best and easiest way to match Dragon (DSMC1) footage to EPIC DSMC2 footage. I'm wondering if anyone has already created a DCTL and would be willing to share it as I'm interested in doing some tests to see how well it...

Kippertie 2TB Media Cards - anyone leading a group buy?

On a recent shoot, the RTMotion Hand controller kept changing the ISO of the camera. Likely the AC accidentally touched the knobs, but even when they tried not to, it kept happening. We looked to see if we could disable it, but there seems to be no way to. Anyone know? The camera type we have...

Folks, what's the relationship between sensor crop and noise on the Helium? Will the amount of noise be the same regardless of whether I shoot the Helium at 8K vs 5K? I get the field of view changes, just concerned if the noise levels are different too? If you were zooming in on a 8K frame vs...

What's the current favorite for a viewfinder on RED cameras from a price-performance perspective? I haven't been keeping up on camera tech developments, keeping super busy with writing scripts instead. So I'd assume there must be new options I am not aware of. Longevity is also a key...

Hi folks, looking to sell my Dragon, very reluctantly, which has very low hours as I also have an EPIC-W and need to raise some cash for upgrading it and fund a feature I'm planning to shoot this year. What will the brain alone fetch these days? Before I come up with a price for the for sale...

Hi, is there confusion in the marketplace about whether EPIC-W is DSMC2 or not? Especially if you are talking about the EPIC-W that does not yet have the board upgrades? I unfortunately can't afford that upgrade at the moment, and, there seems to be no crossgrade to a GEMINI which I might (very...

Hi all, doing some google searches etc., but looking to see if this community has any recommendations for the best one to get for the RED ecosystem. My lens sets include the Xeens, Canon L series glass, Rokinons and Cooke. Thanks!

Anything on the horizon as far as a group buy for the Ready Rig Vega?
