  • 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 :)

Desired Changes with Scarlet..

720p is still nowhere NEAR 3k.

So, again - is there a plan to put a focusAssist on this thing?

Otherwise, you're relying on Auto-Focus, which is a joke as we all know, or connecting to an external, which complete removes all of the benefit of the camera.

See how EVERY DECISION impacts EVERY OTHER THING? Crazy huh ;)

let's just say i'd happily settle for a 720p preview with or without focus assist.. i'm also preparing myself, wallet included, to shell out for a letus extreme in addition to the scarlet with how things stand currently... and i don't mind.
 
happy with the scarlet and greed is no good, so lets improve on this miracle.

-better shoulder mount
-a longer zoom lens

good enough for me.
 
i'm not trying to be anal and correct you.. i just had always assumed it's CMOS and a CCD would be very interesting...
 
another thought to ponder for those demanding interchangeable lenses...TIME

New models aren't designed overnight and the switch from a fixed lens to a mount would require a complete redesign. If we're going to have to wait a year for Scarlet as currently speced then how long do you suppose a new camera designed from scratch is going to take. I think some people here are under the assumption that RED didn't start developing Scarlet until a few months ago but it's more likely been in development since day 1.
 
99% perfect! :love:

I feel that the Master qualities that should differentiate Epic from us are:

_ RedCode 225 vs. 42
_ Higher framerates at higher resolutions vs. only 60fps in 2k
_ Ramping vs. no ramping at all
_ The ability to go for broke with the 645

Then we should get ONE LAST thing: Timelapse

Not a real big deal! Anyone with me?
 
2/3" Scarlets and adjustible frame size\rates

2/3" Scarlets and adjustible frame size\rates

I love what we have here... but i would enable the 2/3" Scarlets
to change frame sizes and fps within its specs:

3k 1-120 fps
2k 1-150 fps (or whatever the math will allow)
1080p 1-180 fps (again whatever the math allows as max fps)

That would be awesome! Isn't this technically possible with
the less complex electronic engine since Scarlet will process
smaller frame sizes at higher frame rate? :greedy:
 
It actually would be quite sweet, but the only difference would be Red Code. It probably would not be enough to boost Epic sales to fund the whole thing. Red Code 36 is amazing enough for most.

Though how am I supposed to know what they need to break even.

It is just so hard to expect anything else after so much was recently unveiled to be coming our way as it is already.
 
My desired changes around here: :innocent:

Seriously though... can RedCode 225 vs. 42 be enough? Then add an additional ~40fps overcranking, and ramping. And the possibility to go for broke with the 645...

Are you afraid that we'll steal all your work because of resolution, lens mount and overcranking?!

Isn't it supposed to be all about the user, about the work, the skills... and not the gear?
 
Oh! Crap! My bad!!!
Forget about that!!! I just saw what you did with the specs!

Bad news for you is that there is no way that the fixed lens FF35 scarlet would be possible at that size or price, never unless they figure out a way to bend light and make pro lenses out of plastic. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news... but the ens would have to be huge and it would be expensive... I like the concept, but don't get too greedy! We were already given the ability to walk on water, don't ask to be able to drive semi trucks over the Atlantic for cheaper freight. :watsup:

Just shoot the whole thing overcranked and do your ramping in post. this aint film, baby.

hehehe... this is true... Twixtor does an amazing job... I am sure there will be a good post path for this and RR42... just shoot with a short shutter to cut back almost all the motion blur and shoot as high as possible... you can then create any sort of ramp you want, bring it to 24fps and make it shoot up even further than 120fps, easily to about 200fps, and with great results too...
 
I think some NLEs like Premiere Pro CS4 even handle ramping now. Obviously, AE does it marvelously.
