Taking the best of both worlds... The STANDARD OLPF sits in the middle of the benefits of The Low Light and the Skin Tone Highlight filter.

Yes, have version for both WEAPON and EPIC/SCARLET. Begins shipping next month.
 
Beyond great news!

The Horizontal SMEAR is virtually all gone on Weapon. (at least in this test)

WOW!

BTW on a related/unrelated side note here is a nice example of the advancements in Weapon doing a better job with those IR orbs etc if you look around the old dudes hair.

Will this be what ships with EPIC/Scarlet now?

Bob, once we have quantities built up, SCARLET and EPIC will ship with STD OLPF by default. WEAPON, you will be able to choose.

Did we also mention that forged WEAPON orders will get all three OLPF offerings? STH, LLO, and STD at no additional charge? If you already took delivery of forged, you will get it as we start rolling out deliveries…

Hey Jarred/Brent,

Does this new one still solve the dots when pointed towards bright sources like the STHO did? Looking forward to this! Thanks for all the hard work guys!

The magenta orbs flaring off the light source? Yes, on EPIC/SCARLET DRAGON, you will see that same reduction as you saw on STH. And, note, on LLO with WEAPON, also a big improvement on that front.

EDIT: Jarred beat me to the punch!
 
Is there an archive file with full-res (better yet, R3D media) of these images we can download?
 
Nice, I think these will be pretty popular.
 
Heh. Well these are certainly the tests I was planning on doing, though Sean looks rather "natural" in the Zodiac set at RSH.

Great examples and thanks for including the "white board" there. That tells a lot of the story. Very interesting improvements from Epic to Weapon Dragon here. It looks like there's been very noticeable visual upgrades when it comes to the CMOS Smear/Bleed/Streak, even pushing these jpgs up 3 stops shows the significant improvement. Also looks like color has been tweaked just a hair.

The halation around overexposed areas has a bit more of an "angelic purity" to it. Nice work to all who made that happen.

I'm going to say a big hell yes to this. Thank you for including all three.
 
Wait. Wait. Wait.

Everybody needs to look at this image much more closely.



This is important info. Based on what we can evaluate from the GIOSCOPE data here there are a couple of very important things to point out.

1. This clearly shows the 1/2 stop improvement in shadow noise and detail when comparing Epic Dragon and Weapon Dragon.
2. Also, it appears that the Standard OLPF is somewhere around .5-.6 stops cleaner than the Skin Tone Highlight OLPF. (educated guess as I'm not running a diff or average on these jpgs)
 
Our Epic Dragon OLPF's will work in Dragon right? So we don't have to purchase new OLPF's when we do the Weapon upgrade?
 
Will this be available as a choice when we get our WEAPONS shipped? like we had a choice between LLO and STH when our Dragonized Epics shipped? very ccol!
 
R3Ds..... Yes please.
