  • 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 :)

DSMC2 Unified Dragon-X

I don't know you sir but I am that exact customer of Red you talked about. I just bought the dragon-x kit. I don't make money in film or television. I'm not in the industry. I bought this camera to fulfill a dream. I now feel I have the same chance to create with the tools that most of these incredible professionals use. I'm at awe at most of the work I see here. So if I can spend a small amount of money compared to what other companies charge for their cameras in order to atleast try my dream as a filmmaker, I'm happy as hell. Thank you for the opportunity, thank you for the kit that allows me shoot right out the box. Most importantly. I thank the guys on these threads because I learn so much. I also know as a business man that some people will never be happy unless things are free. Cars make new models every year, or other year. They Loose value as soon as they drive off the lot. cant make a motion picture with a car, cant capture the essense of a moment in time with a vehicle, unless its a Chevelle ha ha ha. You Get my point, you cant please everybody. I sure as hell am happy. I am a red owner. Peace

I am in the same boat as you :thumbsup:

Christopher,

I didn't realize it was your video, sorry. I forget something that If the video is shot by a Red camera user that they may be a Reduser member. Great video!

Thank you for posting my videos up here. I finally got approved for REDUSER so I couldn’t do it. Appreciate it.
 
Joseph,

First, welcome to reduser!! and thanks for this great test of the Red Dragon-X!
 
After Shooting with my Dragon-x DSMC2 i can say (im a helium 8k owner as well) i am IN LOVE with this sensor and camera! Honestly I have retired the Helium 8k for now. Loveliness all around! Thank you @jarredLand and the team at Red for taking things back to Simple.

Is it me, or thhis picture is slightly blur? is thhe sensor as sharp as the old 6k used to be? what about noise? is more noisy then Helium? Looking forward know your feedback.
 
i just bought the dragon x came in the mail yesterday . i'm having a issue using the compression rates in 5k can someone tell me whats the best with out killing my card in 10 seconds . i wanna shoot 5k full format i guess thats full sensor ?
 
For a 5k dragon you should be somewhere between 5:1 and 10:1 compression for optimal quality. You can go higher, but it will make your footage noisier and will make color correcting more difficult.

What size cards do you have?
 
I think I found a mistake on the Red Data Rate calculator. But would be nice if the Dragon-X can do that kind of magic.
