A few more questions that might give us all new to the applications and system some additional information. I realize some may be answered elsewhere, but thought these are all important and that it'd be great to have in one thread.

RED ALERT
-What is the downside to choosing the "Maximum" setting on "Chroma Denoise/De-Moire'?" Should we keep it on "Max" all the time? How about for "Debayer Detail" and "OLPF Compensation?" Always leave them on "High?" Any comments on general concepts behind these settings and how they affect the actual image?

-What does the "DRX" setting do?

-Is it true that "Curves" do not get saves as part of a "Preset" so that we can use it in Log & Transfer? Is this temporary or something that will always be? I use curves on every shot...seems odd to not be able to do a simple "crush the black, raise the mid, protect the highlight" s-curve and bring it to L&T.


RED RUSHES
-Will "Drag and Drop" be in an upcoming release so you can just drag your R3D's into the app?

-How good is "Half Res" Debayer Quality...good for broadcast work?? Without knowing the secret sauce stuff, it's hard to judge what it's actually doing. Someone posted that Jim said to use "Half Res," but not sure if that's what most people are doing to achieve a high quality, but fast rendering times.

-I don't quite get the RSX integration. If the only way to get an RSX file is to go into RED Alert, why would you then also be using Red Rushes AFTER you have taken the time to use Alert? Am I way off in the way I'm thinking about this? I guess I'm thinking of RSX's as a way to provide a "Preset" look to many clips. So I can color Clip A in Red Alert, but then use it's RSX as a "look" for many clips. Is this correct?

-All different filters here from RED Cine? Advantages or disadvantages to which ones?

Thanks for any information!
