#1: MTV's zombie-comedy DEATH VALLEY. In a recent episode the police gets called to a house attacked by zombies. Turns out the house is used for a porn shoot. As the news crew following the police enters the room where all the porn film crew is hiding, the porn director asks the news cameraman...

R1 & accs no longer for sale... mods, please delete this thread at your convenience.

Hi folks, when reading this post, please keep repeating to yourself "don't shoot the messenger" -- because that's all I am. I got home from Paris, France a few moments ago, having attended a 3-day 3D event. I met a bunch of interesting people there and saw several enlightening presentations. I...

Hi all, as there's been lots of talk about the use of 48fps for 3D, I decided to shoot a simple test. Here you go: 48fps_test_SbS-full.avi (28 MB) Shot on RED One (M) using a $150 plastic lens, so lower your expectations wrt image quality. It's in Side-by-Side Full, i.e. frame size is...

A still from a music video I shot last weekend on RED M. Not really graded; I twiddled with RCX knobs (oo-er) for less than a minute before taking the snapshot. What's interesting (again, YMMV) is that the song for the video does not exist. The video will be cut to a certain BPM tempo and...

I have an odd issue with VIEW RAW when mapped to a User Key. I've tried mapping to user keys 1 and 2, with the same effect. The issue being that the view gets stuck in RAW mode, and pressing the User key does not toggle RAW view. Weirdly enough the button works like it should after I've mapped...

OK, so I fibbed a bit: it's actually Superman XXX: A Porn Parody. From Bleeding Cool: "Director Axel Braun is shooting the movie with RED cameras, with a much bigger effects budget than his previous Batman XXX."

My apologies if this has already been covered. http://www.avinteractive.co.uk/news/1009004/Panasonic-taking-pre-orders-152-3D-plasma-screen/

Hello, does someone know if it's possible to read data off the RED Drive over firewire while the drive is connected to RED which is powered up but not recording? Thanks!

Hi all, since there are obviously very knowledgeable folks among the forum users, I'd like to pick their brains, if I may. Is the following reasoning valid, or am I simply flailing blindly in the dark? #1: Two cameras in side-by-side configuration with interocular distance set to 1 feet =...

I'm a big fan of Louis C.K.'s stand-up comedy so I had to download first two episodes of his new... sitcom, I guess you could call it, "Louie". In the credits there's this: Red Technician CLAYTON HASKELL I'm guessing that's C.H.Haskell who I've seen post on this forum. If that is the case...

A friend of mine acquired a RRocket and was surprised to see that it produces worse-looking debayering than RC-X without Rocket. Rocket's output seems somewhat sharper but at the same time coarser and less pleasing to the naked eye. Running a simple gaussian blur at 0.4 takes care of that to...

Could someone enlighten me about RED RAM's innards? I'd like to know if it consists of two enclosed SSD drives connected via regular SATA to a controller, or is it simply a bunch of memory chips on a PCB soldered on to a controller? Thanks!

Hello all, I did my first ever export to TIFF some moments ago with Windows build 104 (newer ones don't work on my Win7 64-bit for some reason). Source: 764 frames (31.86 sec) of 4K 2:1 23.98fps Export: TIFF 2048x1024x48b With RED Rocket enabled and outputting to a fast NAS over Gigabit LAN...

Pet Shop Boys posted this shot from their "Twickenham front room gig" on Twitter, http://img159.yfrog.com/img159/4405/mcpsb019.jpg And here's the story of how PSB ended up performing in someone's living room. (In case anyone wonders why this post is in this forum: the living room gig was shot...

Hi all, I received my R1 in late December 2009. I didn't buy it with rentals in mind, and the idea still fills me with dread. Unfortunately I got laid off in mid-January and my meager savings are draining out at an alarming rate. Instead of selling the camera to pay the mortgage, I figured I...

Hi everyone! I finally received the missing piece of the puzzle (i.e. RED Drive) some days ago and have been trying to wrap my head around the R1 in all its glory. I have two problems wrt to focusing; hope someone can help. 1) Backfocus. I attached a Nikon 50mm prime and set up a focusing...

Please drop me a PM if you have a Optitek Prolock Nikon mount and you're familiar with it. Thank you.

Are there any cables in the RR box, or do I have to supply my own? For example, Dual Link HD-SDI cable(s) for connecting to a Panny plasma?

Hi all, I'm considering an HD-SDI module for a 50-inch Panasonic plasma to use with RED Rocket. The module (TY-FB10HD) supports the following resolutions: 525/59.94i, 625/50i, 750/60p; 59.94p, 750/50p, 1125/30p, 1125/24p, 1125/25p, 1125/60i; 59.94i, 1125/50i, 1125/24sF; 23.98sF, SMPTE292M...
