Hi All, I just posted my new showreel on YouTube. Please check it out and let me know what you think. I'm still not great at grading, so I'd appreciate your opinions. Link: https://youtu.be/TAOJ27l00Y0 Filmed in Botswana, Zimbabwe and South Africa on V-Raptor, Komodo, Blackmagic Ursa 12K...

Hi guys. I'm hoping someone can help with my current Final Cut issue. I have a library with about 1000 8K 60fps R3D clips in it. The original media is on a NAS, but I have made proxies of all the raw files. If I tell FCP to view Proxies Only and open the library with the NAS disconnected...

I'm struggling to import fcpxml into Redcine-X. I used to export from fcp then change the xml version number to 1.7 using textedit and it would export fine, but this no longer works with the latest fcp version. Any suggestions? Is there an online utility to convert fcpxml into something redcine...

Hi All, I just posted my new showreel on YouTube. Please check it out and let me know what you think. I know it's a bit long - I must cut a shorter, pacier version. Mostly interested in what you think of my grading - It's the first time I've tried to grade in Davinci and there's a lot to learn...

Just got an email from Red saying they will end non-DSMC2 upgrade and trade-in programs. Also chatted to my rep and it seems they are ending ALL trade-ins. So if you plan to upgrade, now is the time (although personally I don't really see the point at the price Red is charging, considering...

Here's a better pic of my rig...

Maybe there is a way to enable this, otherwise perhaps Red can add it in a firmware update. When using the buttons on the camera to adjust the settings, there is no feedback on the SDI monitor - it obviously updates when settings are changed, but you can't, for example, see that aperture is...

Hi All, I'm new to Resolve and I'm looking for some help. I was testing the Ursa 12K on my last shoot, and I now have many terabytes of footage to sort. My normal workflow with R3D files, is to import them into Redcine-X, adjust iso, curves, saturation, etc. so they look nice. Then I save...

Maybe I'm missing something, but I can't seem to fit Redcine on a 13" laptop screen. I need the viewer, media and image panes, but when I have them all open, either the left or right side gets pushed off the screen. Is there a way to make the viewer smaller?

I'm trying to create mp4 proxies of some 6K Dragon R3Ds on an M1 Macbook Pro. The proxies were very glitchy with strange pattern artefacts on single frames throughout the clips. See attached screenshot. I think I've fixed this by turning off GPU Decode in the REDcode system pref pane. I am...

I finally purchased myself a used Canon 200-400 f/4. It's a fantastic lens. Very sharp, and the built-in 1.4x teleconverter is super useful. But there seem to be some issues on Red cameras - I've tested on both a DSMC2 Helium and a Dragon (Magnesium): 1. Stabilisation does not work well - the...

Anyone looking for an Oconnor 515 with a flat base? It's old and well used but still works nicely. Could do with a service I think - recently noticed a bit of fluid under the pan drag knob. The end of the latch that locks the sliding plate in place has broken off, but it still works fine (see...

Here's my 2019 nature showreel. Shot in Botswana (Nxia Pan, Kubu Island, Moremi Game Reserve), South Africa (Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park), and Madagascar (Masoala, Ranomafana and Andasibe-Mantadia National Parks and the Palmarium). Subtitled with common names of animals. Shot on Red DSMC2...

I kept running out of space on my Macbook Pro and I eventually traced the culprit to ~library/application support/red/RedCineX/Logs/ where there is a recently created 360GB log file. looks like it is just a huge text file, mostly consisting of repeated "select: Invaid argument" lines. Not sure...

Hi All, I've been filming wildlife on my Red for a few years now. I do it in my spare time, and usually on my own dime. At present, when I film nature/wildlife in Southern Africa I need to either borrow or rent a 4x4. Often the cost is prohibitive and I end up just renting a normal car and...

Hi All, I'm guessing this is impossible, but I shot a bunch of footage then realised the date on the camera had reset to 20000101. Is there a way to change the date/time in the R3D metadata? Thanks, Rob

Hi All, I've set a bunch of markers in Final Cut Pro and I'd like to transfer them to Redcine X so I can export stills from the marker locations. However, when I import the fcpxml file, the clips appear but the markers are gone. I'm using Redcine X Pro build 42 and Final Cut Pro 10.3.4. I've...
