Hello all! I have been searching for a dual handle setup for my Raven, but I only seem to find the single-side handle setups. Ultimately I'm looking at using my minimal setup with dual side handles and a neck strap tied to two 1/4" 20 D-rings on the top of the brain (for that 3 points of...

Just curious - is there a way in RCX to stop the auto-render? Maybe that isn't the right term, but when I make a bunch of little adjustments to the curves and (well anything), I don't want RCX to 'render' the rest of the clip until I want to play it. This would reduce CPU/heat usage and wasted...

Hi all, This is admittedly a very basic question, but what accessories would you recommend mounting a DSMC2 brain to a head with this style QR plate: Obviously the included single 3/8-16 could attach directly to the brain, but that doesn't sound ideal. Thanks!

I'll preface this with I am not quite sure what this series was filmed with, but I loved it. It was visually appealing and the story had great hooks. The thing that stood out most (besides the use of, I believe it was, 4:3) during the flash-forward/present time scenes was the bokeh. In a lot of...

Hi all, I'm having a hard time understanding the difference in Color Space options when using REDCINE-X Pro and FCPX. Let's say, for example, I'm cutting my footage in FCPX in a project that uses Rec. 709. Cool. If I click on a RED clip in the timeline and edit its settings I see it's set to...

Hey all! I'm looking for a super simple way to get footage off of my Mini-Mag and onto a hard drive when I'm out shooting. Is there a tool that does this at the touch of a button or am I looking at getting a super cheap 'notebook' that I can plug the Mag reader into and copy that to a USB...

Hello, I'm hoping this is a common thing :) While grading footage in FCPX (editing with R3Ds) I finally get a look that I love. However, on export (as ProRes) and opening up in VLC, the contrast is higher and the saturation is over compensated. I have known about the Quicktime gamma shift for...

Hi everyone, Since the sidewinder tool is currently on backorder for the next month or so, I was wondering if you can recommend any substitute tools and/or just common torx/hex sizes that I could just pick up from the hardware store. I really only need it for the DSMC2 handle, REDVOLT XL Module...

Super pumped for this release. Looks to be shot on 6k Epics. BTS Video/sneak preview: Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gGL-R9rYOHE

For all those not on Facebook...

The title pretty much sums up my curiosity (cine style glass aside) - how often do you use lenses with some type of image stabilization?

So this is something that I've seen a bunch on, but have never quite wrapped my head around. What's the "recommended" method for down-scaling final video output to 1080 from 4k? I'll use a very basic workflow as an example (only using FCPX in this case) Should I: + Edit footage on a 4k...

I've been really studying and learning how to read all scopes/wavesforms/etc. and more in Color Finale (and previously just the built-in FCPX color adjustments). This is the opening shot in a new video edit and ironically it's the only one where I cannot achieve anything that looks even remotely...

Hey guys, just like the title says - is it best to apply my LUTs and grading to the original media (GH4 4k h.264 MOVs) or apply to the optimized media (ProRes)? Thanks for the tips!

Hi all, I'll be editing on a maxed out newest-version 5k iMac with 4.5k (at most) R3Ds. Without having done much editing with RED files (other than 10 second sample footage), I'm wondering if I need a minimum drive speed/configuration like RAID or Thunderbolt/USB3/etc.? If it helps, my...

Whatever they did to achieve this look, I'm really digging it. I'm sure it's anamorphic, but you guys might have a better guess at the sensor. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmBvgs-qqPY

Hey guys, I'm extremely close to putting in my deposit for RAVEN. I did some investigating last night looking at a fully ready to shoot bundle vs. getting the pieces/modules I would need to be "record ready". Keep in mind this is as minimal as you can get in terms of my functional requirements...

Hi guys, long time reader, first time poster. I was looking to get a little first-hand insight about what the newest model iMacs and Mac Pros are capable of handling. Basically I'm getting tired of waiting for the Mac Pro to be updated (I know it's probably imminent as it's been 757 days since...
