Premiere starting acting weirdly with R3D files for me lately. Crashing on Export, flickering rendered files, and now when I tried to render a Preview. Running Mac Pro 2013 With latest Premiere Pro. I have a feeling this has to do with the usual "Red Importer", is there a quick fix for this...

Just bought a new M18 HMI, but can't seem to find the cases for ballast and lamp somewhere in Europe. Seems stupid to order it all the way from US, when it's german, right? Any good providers?

I´ve been looking through posts here, but I find it a little bit hard to understand. I know what interlaced footage is, have been working with PAL signal for 10 years in broadcasting before going into the "Red-sphere". But do not quite understand how interlaced works with HD footage, and what is...

I've disabled Spotlight indexing on my 25TB RAID Thunderbolt thing-a-ma-jib. But once in a while I need to search for some sound effect or something. Is there any search function in OSX or through some 3rd party thingie, that can search the disc for a file, without me having Spotlight Indexing...

I've searched couple of older posts (4 years old) about cranes and jibs here on Reduser. I´m thinking of investing in a long crane 12 - 30 ft. Something like that. Doesn't have to be a light travel kit, I would rather have something stable and secure and rugged. What are good options out there...

I did buy the software back in the days. I've been trying to install it on my newer Mac Pro, but cannot find the old registration mail in my mailbox. Does anyone know, who the mail sender was or something, so that I can search for it in my big mailbox? I´ve tried searching "r3d" "r3d data...

During days, where we use the Pro I/O for audio, I often loose the signal after a battery change (reboot). Running a phantom powered Sennheiser 416, I sometimes need to go into audio settings and switch from BALANCED to UNBALANCED, exit the menu window, go back into audio settings, and switch...

I´m looking into buying a system to mount my camera on cars. I want to buy a complete system with 3 - 4 cups with rods and all. Any recommendations for a complete set? What's the "industry standard", when it comes to car mounts? I would like to be able to do the typical front-driver shots, but...

I cannot seem to find out, how to order from the Dog Schidt Optics site. Does anyone know? I tried sending an email, but no reply. Are they just too busy to be able to buy from? There are some PDF which show the different options, but I what should I do with them? Put x-marks on the options...

I think the viewfinder is too bright for my style of filming. I know I shall look at the histogram for exposure, and that's what I usually do. But in hectic situations I find myself sometimes underexposing shots, because of the bright viewfinder. So for me it wouldn't hurt if the Bomb viewfinder...

First I blackshade at 25 FPS with 180 shutter (1/50) Then I blackshade at 75 FPS with 180 shutter (1/150) Then when I go back to recording at 25 FPS 1/50 shutter BUT with the 1/150 blackshade I get a much cleaner picture, when ramping the ISO up to 12000 or when looking at the GIO scope...

How extreme do you guys go with the calibrating and "dark room". Totally dark, like "shut-the-shades-at-nighttime-put-blanket-on-camera-walk-out-of-the-room-blindly-stumbling-over-pelicancases" or "low-lit-livingroom-put-the-camera-underneath-the-couch-kinda-dark" or...

I often use the Full Screen Mode (can't remember what it's official name is), when you can only see what the sensor sees, without all the histograms and clutter in the bottom and top. But I would like to see the red record dot in that full screen mode, and maybe the framing grids. Is there a...

Has anyone tried? Everything working ok?

If I already have the Fan Upgrade on my Epic, which is sent to Red HQ, do I then get the fan upgrade kit anyways? I would like to use it in my old Scarlet kit, which is back home. Or should I switch to the old fan, before I send in the camera, to get the Fan Upgrade Kit?
