    Drobo Pro - useable for R3D files?

    Just found out about the Drobo Pro (http://drobo.com/products/drobopro/index.php). We have a first gen Drobo from before (and use it to backup all R1 footage), and are very happy about its concept and ease of use - but it is slooooow, especially on a Mac. Now, the Pro has not only 8 bays, but...

    Mac users beware: Malware on some iWork / Photoshop copies

    Seems like Macs have lost their virginity. Turns out that some non-legal copies of PS CS4 and iWork have a trojan installed that will launch attacks on other computers. Fortunately, there is a free program available to check (and kill) the bugger. Jump over to...

    RA Presets menu option not working

    I don't understand how to use the Preset function in RA. Intuition would tell me that once I have found a setting I like, I would "teach" that setting to RA. Then I go the the next clip, push a quick key-combination and that previous setting is applied to this clip. Right now, when I push on...

    RA Kelvin >10000

    Just noticed that you can punch very high (and low) numbers into the Kelvin settings in RA - The slider allows for anything between 1800 and 9400. Using the Pick WB button, I got up to over 50.000, which gives some "interesting" effects. And of course you can enter them manually. So I started...

    REDuser workflow

    Was just wondering how you guys and gals are using REDuser. I have the "New posts" bookmarked, and start on that page. I skim for interesting subject lines. Ones that catch my interest, I hover over the subject, and read the first few words without having to actually click on it. If I do find...

    Contax / Canon adapter test

    Did a quick test comparing various Contax / Canon adapters. Since I used quite a few pictures, you'll find it on my blog at http://visualnary.com/2009/04/01/comparing-contax-canon-adapters.html Bottom line: The most expensive one is the best, but the cheapest isn't the worst one. Best Worst

    Can't create QT proxies

    Am having a curious problem. Some of the quicktime proxies no longer worked, so I deleted them. Then I opened the R3D file up in Red Alert, and re-created the proxies. Now suddenly I have some R3D files that open fine both in RA and RC, but I cannot for the heck of it re-create the proxies. No...

    DP/R1 needed next week in Washington DC

    We might need a DP to do an interview with a R1 early next week in DC. Not yet locked, but would like to see if anyone experienced is available. Not a big budget either, sorry. PM me or preferably shoot me an e-mail at martin at abitofmagic dot no. Thanks!

    Finally: Contax Zeiss on the R1

    Got my Andy EOS mount, and first thing was to finally give our Contax Zeiss lenses a run (and a 500m Vivitar fixed at 8 as well...). I ran a quick and dirty breathing test on a number of Carl Zeiss primes, you can see it over at...

    Goofus and Gallant

    Look what I found while cleaning out my parent-in-law´s attic. Sorry about the lighting, I only had a torch around. I wish everyone in the RED community a very happy, exciting and crisp MMIX.

    A wholelotta suggestions on how to awesomeize the R1 even more

    (This is not really a complaint, more an extended list of well meant suggestions. It is one way of saying Thank You to the tirelessly working RED team people. Just didn't find a more fitting section on reduser to post this.) After a couple of weeks with our beloved RED 3971, here are some...

    3 minutes from Norway | First footage from RED 3971

    Powerbook arrived today, and I could finally do some editing. Some test shots with our new 3971. Nature and some basic lighting setups. All on OK(ish) Nikon Zoom (thanks Brandon; still waiting for the Birger mount), no filters. Take this as a test, not as a showcase :) Enjoy. Music by Kevin...

    Thanks, Jim

    Just cutting through all the noise, I want to say thank you. Oh, and if all your hard work has left you without friends... ...we can all befriend you. :biggrin:

    Globalmediapro 190Wh battery

    Has anyone here experience with the LI190s battery from Globalmediapro.com? Over 2 hours of power at that price point does sound quite tempting? I have seen references to globalmedia batteries on this forum, but not this specific battery.

    My first week with RED 3971 (and my longest post to date)

    Last Thursday I took a drive to the airport to pick up our camera directly from the friendly FedEx crew. Back home two hours later, I genuinly enjoyed putting together all the bits and pieces. No mentionable problems there. Love the fact that RED uses paper, not plastics for wrapping. Very green...
