How well does Dragon cut with RED One MX?

[Stephen Pruitt]

Hi all. . .

We are thinking of making the leap into Dragon territory, but am curious how well Dragon footage cuts with RED One MX footage. For example, could both cameras to unobtrusively used in the same scene on different actors in OTS shots? Or would it be obvious that two different cameras were involved. (Leave aside the fact that we usually don't shoot that way. It's just as an example.)

Thanks.

In my mind, as long as your not stressing the DR of the Red-1, shoot in similar resolutions, compression, gamma / color space, properly expose.... there should be no reason they can't intercut. I would make sure though that the Dragon being used has the older style OLPF.
