  • 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 :)

Macbeth... final test shot.

If you do the same test on my camera ... would you mind not putting George Bush in it?

ha ha i knew someone would make a comment when i put him there.

And the Shadows are intentional, its part of our testing.
 
hah hah hah.. and that my friend is why bush kinda fits..
 
Hey what is W doing on the left? he should be on the right !

This probably sounds impossible...although I know the RED team doesn't like that word, but when I get my #813, could you send me some sort of frame grab or what not when you do the final test....It's sort of a birthing of the camera so to speak and I want to see it!

If you buy the CF option and a card they probably need to test record something anyhow. They could just leave the test shots on there.

Thinking about it, that would be a great way for Jarred or another tester to send a personal thank you every buyer. Get the audio working. Build goodwill and make friends cheap...
 
Speaking of back focus how is this handled on Redone? How is it adjusted?

thanks

Well technically the term "back focus" is used with zoom lenses to describe the adjustment done at the shortest focale length as opposed to "front focus" which is the adjustment done at the longest focale length.
With single focale length lenses (primes) it's just refered to as setting the infinity focus of the lens to match the flange focale depth of the camera.

A forward/aft adjustable imager was a feature on some industrial ccd cameras.
Being able to tweake backfocus while watching a monitor is an advantage.
I suspect that monitoring accurate backfoucus on wide shots @ 4k will be as much an issue as it is on 2/3 inch.

That would be adjusting the flange focale depth of the camera. Not the same thing as an adjustable back focus like what is found on some video lenses.

Years ago I bought a second-hand Arri S that was so new it still had the strip of registration footage that was shot with it at the factory still in the box... so what you're requesting makes sense with the RED as well...

Heck, how about a complete video instruction guide on the CF or REDDRIVE that ships with your camera... plug your RED into a monitor and watch a whole presentation...
 
You should speak in english. This is not a spanish spoken board.

Polispol. RED is now worldwide! Si quiere hablar en espanol....dejelo. In otherwords if he wants to speak spanish let him...it's probably not aimed at you anyway. In fact isn't that the 2nd language in the US or fastest growing ?
....by the way, none of this is meant as a punch---only grit reality.

**and you from Barcelona. Estas bromiendo, no?...

...ok let the punches begin. I'm ready!:sick:

-A

Isn't that the point? He can be on the left or right...but he can choose whichever fits the days agenda....He'll always be on the right even if it looks like the left no? Politicians.....can do that can't they? :bleh:

edit: he's on the left when we see him through the lens, but he's then really on the right he'd contend....at least from his perspective.
