Dragon Color 2 Strange Clipping Artifacts

[Thomas Gast]

We have been shooting some tests and have come across some strange artifacts in some clipped highlights when viewed with DragonColor2. When viewed in DragonColor1 it mostly goes away.

Has anyone seen this before or know what causes its? Is this a sensor issue or a monitoring issue?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Seems (from these examples) that DC2 accentuates CA.

Have you looked at them with the RedLogFilm gamma-curve (+DC1/2)

I see that a lot in my footage too. It's color data that clips in dragon color 2's more saturated look. You just have to use dragon color 1 or go after it in your color correction. Graeme just posted about this in another thread.

Here are some examples using the RedLogFilm gamma curve.

Also, here is a wetransfer link to the original .R3D to help with troubleshooting.

I dunno, I've used RedLogFilm and RedColor2 in post and never seen a harsh line that bad in Red footage. It looks pretty clean to me.

Yes these do creep up and Graeme is well aware.
