  • 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 :)

LEO @ ISO 2000

You just have to promise to post footage from the new sensor. That is part of the upgrade deal (very fine print). See you in Las Vegas, Steve.

I just have to stop working on projects that require NDAs. :-)

New website going to be going up in the near future with stuff that isn't under NDA or rights issues for people to download files (R3Ds). I know that has been a big request from people, so hopefully it's something I can do to help the community who don't own Red cameras or don't have access to footage from one. I'm anxious to shoot M-X footage and share results. Going to be a lot of fun based on what I have seen so far.

Huge thanks to Michael Cione, everyone at RED, Mark Pederson, and all those who took part in helping get these initial tests out there. As fun as it is to talk about all of this, it's great seeing moving images. Also, I'm very happy to see the relentless work that is going into the new Redcine-X app. Updates are coming out at a feverish pace, and I'm excited about the direction it is going in. Looks like it's going to be a killer app.

See you in Vegas, Jim!
 
My God! That's one of the most amazing things I've seen in a long time! To think that my own Red could potentially make images that clean just by upgrading the sensor is very exciting!

I'll be flying in from Sydney for Red Day and can't wait to see that in 4K!

Exciting times to say the least.

We have loads of footage that we're going to put out links for on Saturday. It's Mysterium and Mysterium X with identical RED Pro Primes with the same T stop on both cameras, all shot at RC42 on 4kHD. The only thing people need to remember is that there is a known calibration error that will soon be fixed that rears its head in footage that is way under exposed, but even with that knowledge, the new M-X sensor is amazing, and it's only going to get lots better.

We shot lots of night exterior and lots under tungsten, even some cremora explosions.

If you guys think that Leo shot looks good via this download, you should have seen it projected in 4k on the big screen at the early camera owners Red Day at Red Studios Hollywood on January 16. It was a real "jaw dropper", along with the other M-X clips projected that day.

Cool stuff for sure..:)

Yeah, to Jim's credit, he wasn't kidding when he said R1 owners would be happy. To me, what they are doing with this M-X sensor and the new color science is exactly what was promised in the early days. Drop a new sensor in your existing camera, voila, new camera. I'm excited as anyone about Epic and Scarlet, but this is a great evolution of the R1 and staying true to the original philosophy.
 
Ok, just scoured the footage again and again; it is very clean. Much more so than I had imagined from the pictures. Moreover, the characteristics of the noise are very subtle, pleasing.

Nice, thanks Steve! Looking forward to checking it out.

Great pic too!

Same impression here. Even the ProRes, which may have some codec related issues going on, as Jarred mentioned, looks very good and the noise pattern does indeed seem very pleasing. I'd love to get out to Red Day to see this stuff projected in 4K, but commitments back here will most likely keep me from getting the opportunity. No doubt it will be amazing.
 
truly fantastic, congratulations, I am sure your really proud of this performance! Of course, we are all even more tickled by the idea of piggybacking off of your passion to make our work better.

with just a small price to pay of course...

I am not nearly as impressed of the match's light on the face as the camera being able to pick up the match light back on the walls and the sensor being able to pick up so much detail...
 
Watching that clip just makes me smile :)

Later,
Jason
 
I love seeing my idea done better ;-)

Very, VERY awesome! Looking forward to seeing it at 4k!
 
oh, and thanks for posting this!! I love pointing people to this shot as a quick answer to "Why M-X?"
