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 :)
I'm wondering about what dead pixel policy Red has? I tested some 1fps timelapse shots and ended up with a lot of dead pixels on my brand new Weapon 6K. Now some say that a black shade calibration will do the trick, but haven't Weapon been calibrated and should work with the auto-calibration it...
So I've tried getting the pros and cons together on this since but so far haven't gotten much input on it. At the moment I'm out of a power solution for my Weapon 6K. I've got the Base Expander and the Top Handle. Now the Top Handle mounted as it should is not compatible with the Red Bricks when...
So, after my little Aprils fool joke I have to say I'm happy to be a Weapon owner finally :thumbsup:
With a nice and even serial number as well haha. But I have some thoughts on the design for which I'd like some input.
The touch LCDs placed in front of the Top Handle would never really work...
I read that the gyro data has been increased to capture once every 24 or 25 frame per second. Is there any way to export this data or transfer this into a virtual camera or stabilization tool in applications like Resolve or After Effects? I've been keeping an eye on the SteadXP box which...
So I received my weapon yesterday, although I got my mount back today instead so I couldn't really try it out more than power it up until today. I upgraded to the Weapon 6K MG and I haven't really had any major issues before going into the resolution settings finding out that there were a lot of...
This is more of a feature request, but with the new higher capture rate of the in-cam gyro to the metadata in Weapon, it would be a great feature if there was a possibility for other softwares like Resolve, Premiere etc. to make use of that data as a virtual cam for stabilization while adding...
I'm about to send in my Epic for the Weapon upgrade and I'm still trying to figure out the best solution for my problem mentioned in other threads. The included top handle won't fit with the V-Lock expander and Red Bricks. Design flaw or not, I need a solution to this. What are my options?
I...
I'm trying to slow a clip down 50% and use optical flow to get a bit more smooth motion, but when doing so, I cannot render it to make the optical flow work. It only plays the timeline as it "marks" the clip as being able to play without render, but it only stutters when playing. How do I make...
I've exported a DPX sequence with alpha from After Effects, but when I tried to import it into Premiere CC2015 (Latest), it prompts me that the import fails either because of 16bit depth or when at 10bit, that it's an unsupported codec.
Why does this happen? Don't tell me Premiere doesn't...
So I'm editing offline files with some H.264 material mixed in with different framerates and so on, but nothing really "fancy" other than a usual 1080p project. Now, in order for me to speed up the workflow I use CUDA on my Macbook Pro late 2013 which has an Nvidia card present. I'm using El...
Wait wait wait! This is not another "which one is best?", "...but it has less resolution", "but the colors are better on..." -thread. I was watching the wonderfully shot Penny Dreadful and it felt like it was shot on Dragon, which is sometimes easy to spot and sometimes not, the same for Alexa...
I'm trying to figure out why this is happening almost every time in Resolve. Whenever I see something shot on Dragon it's always crisp and sharp and with nicely saturated colors. But whenever I put it through my resolve, the colors becomes somewhat "patchy" and "muddy"; putting in more...
I've tried using NEAT VIDEO on some clips and it seems that every time I get really bad result on gradients. Like in these images where the background and everything looks even comressed. What is going on here? I've tried to change settings in NEAT VIDEO (OFX for Resolve) and I cannot find any...
Coming out of the screening for the 70mm version of Hateful Eight I saw that the sharpness weren't really there. It looked like a 35mm screening because of the old lenses used. Yes, the grain was smaller and the field of view/depth of focus were really good looking, but the 12K equivalent...
I was involved with a project about how guys and men treat women and how it affects their lives. I believe that this is an important message that should be spread.
Mostly shot on Alexa, but I handled a few shots (also me in front of the camera for those shots haha). Those are shot with Dragon 6K and Canon CN-E primes with only natural light and practicals.
Directed by Jakob Ström, DOP - Andres Rignell FSF. I provided equipment did some focus pulling and...
I had an idea since I've been a bit unhappy with the lens performance when pulling focus using fool control or other internal focusing applications (for still lenses).
Is it possible to make a gearhead that plugs into the camera and recieves focusing data through fool control? Giving fool...
So I just jumped onto this ship after some turmoil, but I'd like to ask some questions for those with more knowledge and experience with Weapon.
1. Are there anything in the works from Red to replace the quickplate v-lock module with a weapon-compatible one?
2. I have a wood n camera PL mount...
I need to relink an offline MXF file to it's original .mov file through AMA.
I did a recut of a feature film based on it's master file and in order for me to do the new master I need to relink the offline MXF master file in the bin to the original file through AMA and get the sequence to...
