  • 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 :)

Epic-W

Matthew Quinn said:
so far we know that epic-w will shoot up to 30 fps at 8k 9:1 and include some form of 4k prores, still unclear if the 4k will record at same time as the redcode.. im thinking yes

Hoping the Epic Weapon gets at least 48 fps in 8K... Also the 9:1 is a little high even though we can get away with more at 8k...
 
I'm strongly guessing 6:1 8k 24fps will be the lowest compression possible for 8k motion capture, and that 8:1 will be the cap at 30fps.
 
I really like the frame rates at the original Epic (Thoe I still think its sad that its 4frames off with its 96 fps in 5k and 5frames of in 4k with its 120fps. To close!) But it seams even with a weapon you have to go down to 4k to get 120fps? I know its alot of data shuffle around but in terms slomo I think the fov to framerate ratio is better in the Epic Mx. For the rest, Im sure weapon running circles around mx.
 
You can do slow motion in davinci correct? and does the Epic-W also do 8K 24 fps? because i read some article saying that 8K will only be 30fps.
 
The Epic-MX has so many features, I wonder if the Epic-W or helium will match or go in another direction.
 
overr 450 pages on the Epic - W in the main threat, OMG im dying...
Can anybody point out the most important points, like specs of the Epic W especially frame rates / Compression in different resolutions.

I´m on the trigger for Tuesday but would love to have some more insight about the Epic-W specs.

thanks
 
This has probably been asked already, but if I were to place an order for Scarlet W BEFORE the 11th, would I then be able to transfer that over to Epic W and be eligible for the upgrade discount? Or is the cat out of the bag and I missed my chance?

You still have a chance. Deposit needs to be in before the announcement.
 
I´m excited, after all those years another great way to go for the latest technology, i just pulled the trigger :)
Now lets wait for that announcement

I think he's saying that he put a deposit for the Scarlet-W to then change it to the Epic-W. So far we have a few bits and pieces of information, like resolution X fps, compression, proxy recording. But the full details only tomorrow 11am PST we'll know.
 
Folks who ordered through dealers are able to alert their dealer and their dealer (if they've already been in contact) most likely has their E-W body in hand. This takes the load off of RED to fulfill each order as it comes in and puts it on the dealers to square up their queues. Some dealers are being more forthcoming than others about that info, but the floodgates will open tomorrow at 11a PST regardless.
