  • 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 :)

"Knowing"...

wow. Looks... like a regular blockbuster film.
 
The trailer for Knowing looks fantastic.

We are currently shooting a small sci-fi with #1043, mostly hand held.

RED
 
Just saw the "Knowing" trailer in a DLP theatre. The subject matter alone is compelling enough to want to see this film. To know it was shot on RED is just icing on the cake!
 
Great news Jim!

Love the trailer, even so I freaked out after seen the clip, as I have reaccuring dreams about escaping Plain crashes, and I'm talking about having this dreams since I was a child!


The fact that there is also The RED 300mm Prime lens on set is to prove once again the greatness of that lens.

ciao

TV Shows too... in a ridiculous/strange coincidence.... "twentysixmiles" (they are spelling it as one word), is being shot entirely on RED.

...

/shrugs.


(I happen to be sitting in the Catalina Express ferry terminal with my lappy set up on top of the camera case as i write this.... 0_o Hooray for cell cards.)

I was on Catalina Island while they were shooting "twentysixmiles". It was my first time on the west coast, so needless to say I was excited to see a crew. I saw they were shooting with Red Ones, so I stopped to talk to one of the camera guys while they were moving to a new set-up.

I didn't know if they were shooting for theatrical release or not, so I asked if they were planning on doing a film-out. He said they were shooting for a tv show, and that it would be high def.

With this, I was curious as to what he thought of Scarlet. His reply was that it would be a great home movie camera! I really couldn't believe it!

It is strange that even amongst some Red One users, there is a stigma that Scarlet is going to be a toy. After I talked to him about some of the specs and the resolution (3k with at least pristine 2k at the end of the day), he conceded a little bit, but I couldn't believe he thought Scarlet was going to be a toy!?

Just thought I would share my encounter.

Scarlet will be fun for home video stuff and the odd crash camera. IMO It will not be a high level pro camera.

So you are saying an F23 is not a high level pro camera? :-)

From everything I have seen based on pure image alone the F23 beats the Red One.

So based on your quote are you saying the Scarlet will have a better image then the Red One? :-)

There are many that disagree with you... but you are used to that. :-)

Scarlet will have less resolution than a RED ONE... slightly more than an F23, more DR than a RED ONE (before upgrade) and all the advantages of shooting RAW... plus shoot 120 fps (180 fps 5 sec. burst). Your response is based on actually shooting the F23? Or, "just what you have heard"? I have talked directly with those that have shot the F23 and have a different opinion than yours. I personally have not shot it.

And further... :-) the F23 shoots 30 fps. So is the discussion just image quality, or as a Pro tool as you 1st stated?

For you to dismiss Scarlet as not being a Pro tool without having seen what it is or what it does seems... rather Baywatch to me.

BTW... actual measured resolution of Scarlet will be 2.1K (72% of 3K).

And another thing... the F23 has a 2/3" sensor compared to the RED ONE 35mm sensor. How does that play into your comparison? Are you basing your RED ONE comparison to the F23 solely on DR? Check your sources (the edge is much less than people talk about). Resolution? Don't think so. Color? Low light capability? Try shooting an F23 at ISO 1000. What specifically would make you say that? Just curious... maybe it is based on weight? Is that why people are lined up to rent them?

Looks like you found my button...

"rather Baywatch" great retort, LOL too funny Jim.

Finally tried out B16 today on some flowers outdoors; very impressive. Congratulations Red people !
 
And another thing... :-)

How many home video cameras look like this?

I am loving that new Scarlet render, Jim.
 
I CAN'T WAIT TO GET ONE!!! THAT IS SO SICK!!! The lens looks like the 18-85 and the primes at NAB!!! AHHHhhh Thats so awesome. Nice job RED!

P.S. Build 16 is awesome and the proxies aren't as dark as in build 15, I'll post some stills after I finish the project.
 
Just to make sure everyone knows... I like Finner.
