We find to get the best out of our Red Dragon stills, we need to sharpen the files a bit using 'Unsharp Mask' around 205 and a small amount of Clarity 0.433. Without this the files are a bit lacking....... for Stills only. I was wondering how does everyone else treat their stills ?

Dear Fabulous Red Users We have upgraded our cameras to Dragon sensors (2x Epics and 2x Scarletts) Initially we had the LLO OLPF installed and then on a shoot last week (into the sun) ended up getting the Dreaded Red Orbs. We then ordered the STH OLPF shot the same thing again and now...

Dear all Just wanted to say a huge THANK YOU ! to Jason Gooch and Nikki Barbor at Red Europe Pinewood. Today they have gone well beyond the term Customer support. In fact we need to find a new adjective. Im writing this from T2 at Heathrow on route to Singapore, I was going to travel with my...

We have just received our Scarlett Dragons back from Red, I've been testing the cameras prior to a shoot next week. I've noticed that after Black shading if we change the shutter speed, the E (indicating correct exposure for the black shade) changes pretty quickly from Green to Yellow. As I...

We are currently on location and 1x of our Epics doesn't seem to have any audio for a scratch track, we are using a 48v Rode mic, which we have used for many shoots with this Epic And our other cams. We have tried changing cables, mics and turning things off and on in the Audio menu. Are...

We have a client that wants some excellent Extreme sports footage in 4k to show on their UHD TV's. Ideally bikes (BMX&Motorcycle) or Cars. Can anyone suggest the best place (library possibly) to licence this sort of content from? Thank you

I'm curious. We own a couple of Red Bricks and number of Pags (about to buy more) But we also own a few Dynacore batteries with the charger built in, these are V mount and were bought with the primary purpose of powering some lights (LED) and other accessories like Small LCD Monitors. The...

Just a quick shout out to The team at Red Europe, Sam Measure helped me out enormously last month. With some of the new camera announcements being made this year we had been looking at maybe changing systems (We own 3x Reds, soon to be 4) but thanks to the AWESOME customer care and quality of...

Dear RedUsers I've been thinking a lot about all the noise about the noise on the Red Dragons. We are currently in line to have our Reds upgraded to Dragon. So here's my idea.......... 1) It's very clear that Dragon with the Old Calibration created a Camera that worked very very well at...

My Nikon mount is kinda interesting. All the Nikon FX lenses I have that are on the DSMC list work fine, although we often have mount and unmount a lens for the aperture to engage and open up. My Tokina 11-16 MKI is always stopped down, the electronic aperture doesn't engage with the...

We have been prepping our Epics today for an upcoming job. We sometimes create Camera Presets specific to a job. On creating a preset today the Audio settings don't seem to be getting saved. Basically we are creating 2x almost identical Presets, the only difference being the Audio settings...

I'm curious, we have and love our Sound Devices PIX240's and we nearly always film with them to serve as a backup and instant Proxy maker. Sometimes because of budgets or time we edit directly from the ProRes422. For simple interviews we use the Pix to power our mics via 48V, anything more...

We are currently buying extra REDMAGS as we like don't like to delete cards until the footage is totally backed up (LTO) and checked. The question is, how safe is it to purchase second hand Redmags ? Or to put it another way, what's the lifespan of Redmags ? How many times can they be...
