It's been a while now.... r3d's from Dragon?

[Les Dittert]

I have not been following the forum closely for a bit, can someone tell me where we can download some motion r3d's from the dragon of a normal outdoor scene without bizarre makeup, etc. Especially if someone has shot the same scene with MX ?
The MX comparison is so obvious to do. Especially if you plan to mix cameras on a set.
Where to see ?
Thanks!

It's tomorrow : )

I'm with Les; I'd love to see direct MX/Dragon comparisons so as to see the feasibility of mix'n'matching.

Yep. So far, nada to see what the Dragon image looks like as an R3D in a normal everyday scene.
The wheel dancer R3d ( thanks for that ) was not very useful to evaluate things as the blacks are at an unknown level due to the atmospheric fog. Also, the picture resolution was maybe 2K .
Frankly, I'm getting worried.

For the viewing pleasure of the public, I am going to post comparison images at 1:1 cropping from 4K of my Epic MX vs my new run-N-gun camera, the Sony PXW-Z100.
It has a small sensor ( 1/2.3 , vintage 2013 ) ( boooo ) but has the bitrate ( 600 Megabits, about same as Red Epic ) and 10 bits deep color.
This should be revealing.

I'm on the phone and in Manhatten Beach instructing at a workshop, but the .r3d files that Chris allowed me to post from the Dragon outdoor girl and Taco Bell shoot with both MX and Dragon are online still.

Phil, I did not see that! Where ? ( I searched around a bit and see the jpg's but no r3d )

I survived the 405. Here you go Les. These were posted at the beginning of last month btw.

Right on. Just uploaded them.

Here's a zipped up file containing 6 R3Ds. 3 from Dragon, 3 from Mysterium-X.

Very soon. Like now soon.

Okay. Here's a look at Christopher's Quick Dynamic Range Test between Mysterium-X and Dragon. He has provided samples at T1.4, 5.6, and 22. I've made various "notable" ISO adjustments for everybody to inspect in REDcolor3 and REDgamma3.

Each link below will open a larger image in a new window.

Red Quick Dynamic Range Test - T1.4

• ISO 50
• ISO 100
• ISO 200
• ISO 320
• ISO 800
• ISO 2000

Red Quick Dynamic Range Test - T5.6

• ISO 50
• ISO 100
• ISO 200
• ISO 320
• ISO 800
• ISO 2000

Red Quick Dynamic Range Test - T22

• ISO 50
• ISO 100
• ISO 200
• ISO 320
• ISO 800
• ISO 2000

Specific things to look out for are where tonal and color information are held and not lost or distorted. This is most visible in the ISO 50-320 samples. Additionally it's very clear to see Dragon's new way of seeing color overall in the ISO 800-2000 samples at T22.

Thanks Phil, downloading now.

I'll be looking at these, and testing the new Sony Camcorder this weekend !
