  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

blue dots all over my footage

Can we get this back on topic and stay out of the feature debate?
Every camera design is compromise regardless of price.

Martin, Can you email me so we can take a look at an R3D?
 
Before or After

Before or After

Yes because the heat of a sensor affects how it "see's" black for any given pixel(s). If you record for about 5-10min. then Black Shade everything will be perfect again.

This is a simple uncalibrated sensor issue; not a complicated fix-it-with-all-sorts of-crazy-cool-post-software-and-techniques-issue, sorry Dan try again next time.

If you need to calibrate the sensor BEFORE you shoot, how does that save the messed up footage already shot?

How would you fix those messed up shots to get the look he was going for?
 
Deanan,

the r3d file it pritty large how would I go about getting it to you.

I also made a slight mistake because allot of the footage I shot that night was at 120fps the actual stills came from 4k 2:1. But regardless of the format im getting the dots, when on other shoots if i was underexposed i would just crush blacks and remove the noise in them and ive never seen blue dot noise

but ya I would love to get the r3d to you just how?

If they don't have an ftp address you can try,

http://www.filebanker.com/

or

http://hotfile.com/

Filebanker seems to work with large files in one piece?

Hotfile gives you a link to erase the file with maybe.

Skydrive has a file manager and is good for medium size files,

Rayfile also works but seems a bit slower than hotfile.com and filebanker when used before,

I have emailed Deanan well see whats up.
 
We had this same problem with our non mx camera and build 30. Daytime exterior footage was fine, but anything inside produced blue and white pixels in the same areas of the footage. We tried everything from cleaning the sensor to multiple black shading and white balance. Nothing worked except to drop the camera back to build 21. The MX camera that I have does not have this problem. Try going back to build 21 and see if it fixes the issue.
 
Just done some low light shooting with the M-sensor on build 30.5.0 and got a bit worried. In 1:1 mode on camera LCD there was A LOT of blue noise. But in REDCINE-X there are NONE of this noise. The image from build 30 is fantastic! Great job red-techs. Not sure if I imagine this, but the noise itself almost look different then from earlier builds. Build 30.5.0 is clearly my favorite :)

The blue noise just becomes irritating when I increase ISO to about 2500. If there was a way to de-noise this blue stuff in REDCINE-X, the M-sensor would be usable to alooot higher iso's. :)

Cheers!
 
Deanan,
Was there any progress on this issue? I just shot a test today with an M sensor and had this same problem with blue dots in the shadow areas. I can send you the r3d files.
