    Mastering of video material. Using the whole dynamic range, or not?

    I was taught video with in the PAL signal days of the 90's. Using betacam. I went to a video-school, and didn't learn anything about analogue film at all. Back then, we where constantly reminded of using the full spectre from black to white. Always getting some detail to hit the high notes, and...

    Going to the sea with my Scarlet. Salty air.

    I will be going 5 days to sea with my Scarlet. Will be sailng onboard a control vessel and boarding some fishing vessels. I will try to get as much footage in my Scarlet, but otherwise I will have a cheap 5D for those dangerous shots. I have a homemade raincover, and will not be going out into...

    The ISO thing with Red cameras. How does it work on a non-RAW-HDSLR?

    I understand the 320/800 ISO thing with these cameras (protecting highlight vs. noise in blacks). But how do other non-RAW-cameras manage this? Like the Canon HDSLR? When you change ISO to 100 on them, are the sensors overexposing, when using onboard histograms...like on the would on a Red? I...

    I´m about to shoot a timelapse of a sunrise in 3 hours. Have never done this before, and I plan to use 1 FPS on 4K on my scarlet. I have not done any measurements or calculations yet, so I need some approximisation advice from you guys. I´m no expert on sunrises, but I expect to be filming...

    Kessler kwik release. Doesn't look right.

    I´m looking into some kind of quickrelase thing, to be able to work fast with my Cineslider, Kessler tripod, Vinten triped and Zacuto baseplate. Kessler are bragging about a new thing, they call the Kwik release, looks all good on paper. But then there's this video, which is supposed to show...

    Grading suite. RGB parade. Using a monitor with scopes?

    Grading suite. I planning on something like this: Davinci Resolve Light, going through Blackmagic of some kind into my Eizo LCD, and a seperate output from Blackmagic into a monitor, which has an inbuilt RGB parade scope. Anyone know of a cheap monitor with RGB parade? I don't need the zoom, and...

    Should we report all errors encountered?

    We got weird patterns in our recordings. It started after a bootup, and continued throughout all the clips, until I reset the camera and formatted the card. The card had recordings on it from a previous bootup, and those where ok. The patterns where pooping up in frames all the time on all takes...

    OLED Bomb EVF. Banding in the shadows.

    I posted this question in another thread, but it may be better in a topic of it's own. I have the upgraded OLED Evf. Looks good in good exposure settings. But we are now shooting a short in lowlight conditions. Little bit of underexposure, but the photographer wants it that way. But the EVF is...

    Mounting a Blimb as tight at possible to the camera. Options?

    When it comes to mounting, I always prefer to be tight and lightweight contra having options of moving attachments around. I like to have my viewfinder setup as compact and light as possible. I don't care if I cant get it to point 72 degrees to the right, while tiltig 3 degrees upwards, for that...

    Fiddling around with the Canon 5D...something occured to me.

    I used to shoot alot of photos and videos with the Canon 5D. Lately only working with the Scarlet, and not shooting stills at all. So I picked up my 5D today and went out shooting some photos of my girlfriend. But when I came home, and started fiddling with the RAW files in Lightroom, the...

    Corrupt exports. Needs restart then works.

    I usually get corrupt frames when exporting. Both through the Media Encoder and directly from Premiere. I don't know what causes this, but it seems like this error comes, when the computer has been computing and working with Red files for a while. I usually run with AE and Premiere open, but the...

    What does factory reset do, except setting all user settings to default?

    I know that factory reset resets all user settings and all that. But what does it do "behind the scenes" that makes some fault in the camera go away? I´m not a programmer, but is there any way to explain this to a regular joe? Just curious.

    Modifying R3D files in After Effects?

    How can I access "Source Settings" in After effects, like I do in Premiere? Running CS6. Someone mentioned a button in the Edit menu, but I can't find anything about source settings. Just "edit original", but this button opens the R3D in the Red Player, not redcinex or the Adobe red panel.

    Lost frames, but audio is continous

    Just filmed about 60 takes. All where ok, except two of them. They had lost frames (I could see the actor jump), but audio was clean and had no glitches, which resulted in the audio being out of synch behind the video. There where no artifacts or anything, just a couple of frames lost. Has...

    Have you noticed...

    Have you guys noticed the same as me? I haven't shot film before, only video on different formats. And that was all ok and all. I was very confident on DV and lately on the Canon 5D. But after getting the Scarlet it's as if...hmm....how do I explain. It's as if I´m starting from scratch again...

    Possible to have a custom crop on LCD? Or custom guides?

    We're filming a weird format for Vimeo. Is there a way to have a custom crop (block borders) on the LCD to better see framing? I would like to not ruin my screen with black sticky gaffatape.
