You gotta love that type of mentality...
 
Sooo, how about slower shutter speeds for time-laps? 1/12, 1/8, 1/4, 1/2, 1.
 
"you just have to base your lighting off of experience with the camera rather than being able to see it real time on set"

that's why we get paid the BIG $$$$$$
 
Experience yes, but really this camera has more light meter information than any camera I have ever used !

Donatello could you please tell me when the next how to make big $$$ seminar is, I just can't seem to get that part right. I am good at spending big $$$ though. I have a Red camera package to prove it.

Thank you very much Lauri. It is so encouraging to hear such kind words from a prospective Red owner. Thanks for your generosity.

Obviously, you don't know what you are talking about.

I read your posts with lot of interest. Sometimes, of necessity, they border on the theoretical, nevertheless they explain the facts. Which I am just as much interested in as practice. Did somebody say knowledge is power.

The sad thing about lot of the valuable postings in the forum is that it appears they are not searchable by subject. At least the search yields no coherent list IMHO. Any way, can you think of compiling all your postings, and whatever else is in your wonderful head, into a nice book. I will be the first one to buy the book. Primarily for me, it will be a nice reference when I have questions.

By normal levels do you mean "auto" levels? Or something else?

Oh, auto will probably do it. Just tighten up on the values so we can see them.

The point is that you will see a lot less information in the hue changes of the image.

It's a trick I use alot, switch to lab color and run heavy noise reduction or blur on just the colors. Makes the noise more pleasing because its more monochromatic. (You will then need a corresponding increase overall saturation.)

Hello Prem,

Thanks for your very kind words -- its easily one of the best compliments I have ever gotten. Firstly, I am grateful to Jim and Jarred Land for providing this wonderful forum for airing my point of view. This forum is really great; there are many people represented here who are gurus of their respective fields -- David Mullen, Finner (The Speedo King), MMost, Laguun, Graeme Nattress and Deanan come to mind quickly, and I follow their posts very closely.

I think the book idea is interesting; I shall have to really take my self-professed sabbatical for that ;-))))

Thanks a lot again.
 
A great bloke by the name of Mike Seymour from FXPHD.COM took time out of his busy schedule came up to our studios in QLD Australia and let us test out his RED camera.
It was like someone had just invented electricity in front of me.
Here's some of the footage we shot.

Minus this only being a very small 13meg.mov file full of compression, the original 4k files are as clean as silk.
So impressed I've just ordered another 3 more RED's and am hanging out now to buy a few Scarlets at NAB next month.
If you reading this Mike, A public thankyou to you and Jimmy, thanks so much for sharing the knowledge. RED boys, thanks for making this thing.

Ill be shooting my next job with RED without hesitation.
 
Cool stuff, Big T.

Jim
 
Great footage.

Please post some of your R3D files to redrelay.net

Cheers
 
That 8mm T-Rex shot was great. The whole thing rocked. Thanks Big T.
 
Here ya go Ibloom, not sure what to make of it except the Luma channel looks great to me.

I'm so glad the Nikon D3 starts to be mentioned around here, cause it's a darn fine piece of equipment, a great answer to Canon.

Build 14 is awesome, thanks for the hard work.

Here are some of the things we are hoping for in build 15 or soon after:

Purple Sun Fix
Sensor Diffraction Fix (?) (pattern seen in the LART sunflare footage)
Noise Improved (Its very good already)
Latitude Improved (Also already very good)
Multiple Simultaneous Outputs
Customizable User Buttons
Option for Shutter in Degrees
Lens Metadata Enabled (and shipping pins)
Higher Framerates :)
LUT Feature Enabled
Loading and Saving of All Camera Settings
Sleep Mode
On-board Clip Management (Thumnails / Delete Clip w/user selectable option to disable this feature)

Just adding even a couple of these would be great!

thanks,
