Wow! Thanks
 
Added User Lens Calibration

I can't wait to test this out. Got a couple of "aliens" here.
 
It's early Christmas! I love my Scarlet for what it has allowed me to achieve. New beta build is full of fun stuff, loved the fact that now we get WS and up to 5:1 in 4kWS and HDR 25fps at 3kWS, plus lots more stuff in there, so much in there. I'm still upgrading to an Epic, and then Epic Dragon!
 
the extra confirmation before formatting will save many people their jobs :) especially in india ... thanks red
 
Haven't run this yet, as I'm kinda in the middle of things... but I believe you should be seeing up to four points for racking between, a much clearer setup process, and control over the speed and ramping of the focus pull.
 
4K ws and 25fps HDRX at 3K ws for Scarlet? Is that confirmed?!?

That's great, thanks! How far advanced is this Beta compared to others in the past? I most always found the Betas being really stable and ready to go...

And by the way - can I please send in my M for the DRAGON upgrade? Pretty please? The suspense is killing me.

Oh, and one other thing. Stop introducing new stuff, you're making me a (very happy) working poor! Ok don't... :)
 
4K ws and 25fps HDRX at 3K ws for Scarlet? Is that confirmed?!?
I fired it up real quick. WS formats an all resolutions with Scarlet.

Max fps with WS setting on Scarlet-X

5k WS 12 fps (yes, no changes in max fps)
4K WS 36 fps
3K WS 60 fps
2K WS 75 fps
1K WS 120 fps

HDRx 3K WS 30fps
 
Love the rack focus speed addition... been waiting on that one. Thank you!
 
Ace thanks Patrick and big thanks to RED! These extra framerates are great!

cheers

Racking focus just for the heck of it. This is now a full fledged feature - so much fun and lovely smooth!

Thank you for this update! This is an all new camera - once more!
 
Thanks Red.
I'm looking forward to all these new features, especially once we've upgraded to Dragon...
Our Scarlet is out right now. Is anamorphic mode supported on the Scarlet by any chance?
Cheers,
Damien
