Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)
There are some significant updates and changes that I would like to share…
1. EPIC-Ms are being built at a rapid pace. There is no waiting if you want to buy an EPIC-M starting tomorrow. Supply is limited. Just remember that these are still pre-production cameras and firmware upgrades will be...

"After seeing "Tattoo" shot on the new EPIC camera at RED Studios Hollywood on a 40' screen, the only thing I could think was that this looked like it was shot on 65mm film or with an IMAX camera. There was no visible grain or noise with...
I thought my Private Message option was disabled... and I just looked up to see a whole bunch of them sitting there. Oops...
I don't do PM's. So if you sent one and I didn't respond, I'm sorry... I just haven't been looking. I mean no disrespect but I won't open them or respond. Please post...
EPIC-S is dependent on a few things...
1. EPIC-X finished and shipping most of the orders.
2. The rework of the camera given less electronics and features.
3. Cost saving advantages from a mature assembly process and efficiency of production techniques.
We expect EPIC-S to be in...
All the bad news that I can think of…
1. Supply chain issues. This continues to drive us crazy. We have just gotten word of more delays with several key components from Japan for EPIC-X. We are now looking at late July to receive parts and for the production line to ramp up. We can make a lot...
So we were invited to see some Spiderman footage today at Sony. John Schwartzman was there and we talked a bit before going into the screening room.
"This is the best looking footage I have ever shot... these are the best images I have ever seen!" was his comment. I asked him if this was just...
We really appreciate our customers (friends) support...
You put up with a lot.
We are usually late.
You have to defend your purchase with "those that don't get it".
Cigar smoke when you visit.
You have to live with our (my mostly) embarrassing posts.
Did I mention "late"?
Never finished...
I am blown away. Really. I have taken some of my oldest footage (RED ONE and M sensor) and applied REDcolor2 and REDlogFilm with my newest Look... and I am speechless.
Apply the Look and adjust Shadow until you fall over dead.

There is a very powerful tool in REDCINE-X called Looks. You can create a look by adjusting just about any setting and saving/naming it in the Look Preset folder. Or you can right click in that box and import one from your friends. After you have created or imported a Look, go to Look Setup...
Posting a new thread in case this has gotten lost in the other threads. The 2K was done in MPEG Streamclip to .mp4. This should be easier to see than the 2K ProRes file for many.

The only reason we haven't posted the "Tattoo" movie yet is because it is almost impossible to post a correct H264 movie that looks right. We have had much better luck with X264. The problem is that you all will need to download and install an X264 codec to play the file.
This really...
Stop by RSH at 2pm for a presentation at Stage 4. We'll show some resolution charts and images on our 40' screen and 4K projector along with "Tattoo" and the new 700 RED Reel.
Entry to the Stage will be on Cahuenga.

See you then.

Today we did some resolution testing (with adult supervision) to see how well the new Leica lenses perform for an upcoming feature. Of course the Alexa was included in the tests as required by law.
The Leica lenses perform better than any lens we have tested to date... beating the Master...
