Arri (LDS) Lens Data System Red Lens Mount

[PatrickFaith]

Old thread, best one I could find.
Just checking but there is still no way to get master prime lens data into a dragon?

It would be amazing if Red cameras supported LDS.

+1 It would be very cool!

WOndering if the RED FIZ could be a way to circumvent this...

there is new mount on Alexa65 named X-PL and i think it supports both i/data (Cooke) and LDS.

Yes and no... it was stated that this is possible (or on the road map ) but without a non-motor encoder it will only work for LCS moments. Arri have a great new system (with little encoder that looks like a tiny motor for manual moments) that records all Lens data with TC that can be recalled (or merged into other clip data) later... but even with that system a Mount that takes the lens data straight into the file would be still better..
