M-X at ISO 2000...

[Álex Montoya]

Although it's a JPEG there's quite some room for playing with the pic. Compression is low and the blacks aren't crushed.

 

[David Perkins]

Absolutely Amazing!!!

 

[Alex Mack]

This doesn't improve its quality! You cannot restore the data that is lost by an 8 bit JPEG compression.

Changes made to the image are smooth. No data is restored.

 

[Jeff Kilgroe]

Guys, please stop grading a JPEG picture! This doesn't make sense at all!

Seconded. It's still an 8bit image lacking much of the original info. Don't see the point.

So please play with it by yourself and don't post the results. There are always people here trying to find flaws... :wink:

I second that.

 

[Gavin Greenwalt]

If someone wants to grade something really meaningful then crank up the levels and show off the noise in the shadows! It's so clean! It looks like noise!

 

[Ryan E. Walters]

Very impressive results, I am looking forward to getting this new sensor in my camera.

 

[Kenneth Elkington]

The noise looks incredibly pleasant. Was the new FLUT science applied to these shots?

 

[Alex Mack]

It looks like noise!

Possibly like grain? It really is fantastic.
Changes the meaning of lighting.

We now use FLUT Science on everything... we are working on including it for older RED ONE footage with a new build and REDCINE-X support.

If ISO 2000 jpegs could withstand those specifically targeted looks .r3d and dpx would do even better. That was the point.

I wouldn't sweat over folks who pick flaws in data re-stretched web jpegs. Shots show fantastic noise characteristics for this ISO and great highlight handling and that's what matters.

Sorry Jim. I thought those looks actually proved the great MX potential.

That would be so great since I'm about to grade my new short film Marina for filmout.

[Michael Lofquist]

Brilliant

I think the Red One with the Mysterium-X sensor will never loose its attraction even despite the wonderful Epic and Scarlet systems coming.

That is GREAT news :hurray:

 

[Warren Kommers]

What was the white balance?

 

[brian hanson]

amazing, can't wait to shoot with it. keep the sample clips coming!

 

[Jesper Sichlau]

Thh, I don't see what's so fantastic about this...

Just kiddin' this amaze me, and makes me hope my future fixed Scarlet will make my footage look just as pretty and clean - and of course starring moviestars like Leo

 

[Bill Anderson]

How come the cigar isn't lighting up the whole room? ((( :
Magnificent work Jim.

 

[Jannard]

This doesn't mean anything until we know the shutter speed.

This is the Recon thread. Please take all Canon discussions, comparisons and images over to "Other Cameras".
