Any Scarlet Dragons out there?

[Gerald Menclik]

Can you post a r3d still. If your at a f22 on the lens that will explain the softness in the image as the lens losses sharpness after f11.

I think my learning curve is going up a little .... ISO250 (!), shutter 360, f2,8 and you can even see the little bug flying by .......

Here's a quick little regrade on the footage. I noticed your shooting 4k instead of 5k? Any reason why?

 

[Gerald Menclik]

no particular reason, just because of storage space .... ok I see I have to get familiar with RCX and Resolve ;-)

Try to do 5k with your tests, gives you a bigger sensor to work with and the more you limit the sensor sir the more you limit the sensor.
Pushed to 1000ISO for the fun of it, redlogfilm with some contrast bumped and shadow crushed

Thanks for the advice, I`ll keep in mind .... love your "quick" grades

it`s quite a way from broadcast to RED .... :crazy:

thanks, and welcome to cinema s35. It's a 180 from broadcast, but once you get into it. It's hard going back.

Not saying this is how things are supposed to look or anything, and I see now Jon already had it covered anyway, but yeah...











It doesn't take much to push and pull the R3D's into shape if circumstances don't allow you to nail your look in-camera.

Thanks too for sharing the R3D's Gerald, I'm still finding it fun to play with images from the new sensor.

Thx for sharing your grades, I am learning from it anyway :beer:

I just received my Scarlet Dragon, but I won't be able to actually put a battery on it for 3 more weeks. Quickplate has a delay.

Bummer. I went through the same thing with the first Scarlet. Hang in there.

Are all of the Scarlet Dragons that are out there new orders or are there any upgrades out yet. I'm doubting upgrades are out at all yet cause I placed my order the first day and haven't heard anything.

They're all new orders. The upgrades won't be happening until end-of-Summer / September.

Just checking, can someone list the pixel dimensions for the following resolutions of the Scarlet-D?

-4K
-4K HD
-3K
-3K HD
-2K
-2K HD

Much appreciated!!

 

[Michael Tiemann]

Zul, all the pixel dimensions are identical for SCARLET DRAGON and EPIC DRAGON. You can read the specs listed in the ops manual that is posted online.

 

[todd k]

What about aspect ratios? 4k by 3k 4:3 ratio would be nice for anamorphic and have a similar pixel count to 5k.

 

[Ryan Hamblin]

what is the highest framerate you can do in 5k and what is the lowest compression ratio that you can do it at?

 

[Gerald Menclik]

Phil put all these together ...

Any updates from owners? Footage, reviews?

I currently shoot on a BMCC 2.5K and I'm considering an upgrade to Scarlet Dragon. There's still very little footage out there though.
