Hi all, I own a Weapon MG 6k with Nikon mount (used with several Nikon lens). Since the beginning I can't have the autofocus to work in a reliable way so I ended up using only manual focus. It's my preferred way to shoot bu nevertheless there are times when I'll like to have a working autofocus...

Hi all, When sorting out clips to just keep the ones that are really in focus, I use the fast Red Player (just by clicking in the clip name). I use full debayering to check focus accuracy but the problem is that in the viewing scale 100% doesn't have a one-by-one pixel correspondence in my...

Hi all, "Transcend" is a videoclip where memories and dreams intersect in the underwater world. A magical world full of beauty and harmony. What is that this video tells you? What's the story behind it? Any comments are welcome. Cheers,

Hi all, I need to know for sure if Weapon MG with I/O V_lock expander will support two monitors at the same time. That is, without any touchscreen or EVF connected, can I use an HDMI monitor displaying all the camera menus (for my control) and a second monitor connected to the HDSDI at the...

I'm wondering what is the best target temperature for Weapon Magnesium, regarding image quality? I know that a lower temperature yields a shorter warmer time and a faster/noisier fan speed. But, if sound is not a concern, should we always try to run de Weapon at the coolest setting to get the...

Hi all, My setup: Weapon Mag + 1 TB mini-mag + RED station mini-mag. The problem: After I connect the mini-mag station to my iMac via the supplied USB3 cable, the red LED lights up after I turn the back switch to the "on" position, as expected. - But as soon as I insert the mini-mag 1 TB...

I all, I need some urgent help here, because I'm leaving in a few days for a big shooting. I'll start shooting a film and I'll be moving by car during 15 days, shooting at different locations. I want a system that allows me download footage, backup but also with the speed to play full...

Hi all, I need some help here... I received my Weapon Mag not long ago and I'm still in the learning curve. I've done some test shots at home, and although the audio recorded was there in the playback, I can only hear it using headphones connected to the Base I/O V-Lock Expander. If I remove...

Hi, I got the Mini World Travel Adapter Kit with my Weapon, but it looks like it doesn't adapt well in European plugs, namely in Portugal, because it doesn't provide a ground contact. In spite of what the operation Manual says, that you should not bypass the third contact (ground) when...

Hi all, I've bought recently a complete setup RED MG and a housing to my work. Even though the housing I have is VERY GOOD (with vacuum system and leak alarm) the risk is always there when I'm diving with my RED. Besides the potencial flood risk, I would like to have some peace of mine...

Hi all, The Weapon Magnesium have a rolling shutter or a global shutter? I'm no sure, but from the learn center in RED's website, I think I understood it is a rolling shutter (they mentioned its the standard for a long time and that they have a PL Motion mount when need for a global shutter)...

Hi all, I'm new to the RED system and need to place my order asap. Since PAGlinks are very well quoted for all their characteristics, I'm planning to use them, so some questions: 1 - Are PAGlinks batteries full compatible with Weapon Magnesium? 2 - Should I buy the RED V-mount or the PAGlink...

Hi all, I need to know if someone have tried the Weapon with the Atoms Ninja2 connected (through HDMI cable). Since I have already one Ninja2 and its underwater housing, I would like to see if this will be a viable option to use as external monitor with RED Weapon inside underwater housing...

Hi all, I'm in the market to buy a new video pro system, probably a Weapon or Scarlet-W, so maybe someone is / was in the same process and can provide some useful feedback. I need the camera to work in my own production (diver controlled camera) but also to work in commercial productions...
