  • 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 :)

Make that 7 stops...

Jim,

That's impressive, the camera is clearly going to rock out in low light. How about throwing on one of your primes and shoot some shots lit with a few candles? Or maybe some super clean night exteriors ( @1600asa ) T2.0. Those shots will be more representative of real situations.

That looks better than hypergain! :gun:

This camera might just make the best low-light HD camera for low light acquisition. (Downsample 4K to HD and run several de-noising algorithms.)

Now we just need RED to create Noct-like lenses with dinnerplate-sized optics for really ultra low light abilities. :)
 
I could light a shot with my cellphone screen on this thing :)

Absolutely, with some T1.3 lenses, ISO32000 and then downconverted to 1080p with color correction and de-noising algorithms (which are the best ones, btw?) this is DA BOMB. I'm stunned.
 
The noise, depending on the movement pattern could look quite exquisite in its own. It can function as a cognitive visual device during some night shots, similar to Michael Mann's night shots in Miami Vice.
 
We are shooting tests tonight in the dark... we'll keep you posted.

One thing missing is how incredible the image looks at ISO 500. I'll post one of those soon. I might even post just the blue channel.

I'm embarrassed to say that I just wet myself.

I apologize, but I figured I could share since I feel like I know you all. :)

PS-Every time I see a new post like this my heart skips a couple of beats. It's like that first-love kind of thing. Very strange.

Paris Hilton could use this for her next home movie. Not the best use for a night vision camera, but holy crap, its the first that came to mind. She'd be better off to hire a gaffer but who really cares. 64000 tomorrow?

One REALLY caring Gaffer here...

There's a question for David Mullen;

How is the most effective way to light a scene with fireflies? How do I get them to disperse evenly for the right ambiance?:nerd:

Diffuse the light with lets say... Silent frost??? maybe ?? :-)

There is a real air of insanity about all this, and I absolutely love it. I keep trying to tell friends, strangers, anybody who'll listen how exciting this is - but they think we're a bunch of geeks. Can't wait for the night shoot results.

Can't wait to see an ISO 500 image. Anything vaguely real-world would be a delight now. Just a street at night, maybe? Moonlit forest? Whatever, I'm enjoying this.
 
Jim, I'm popping a bottle of bubbly to the RED ONE right now.

Noire of course.

It's great even being on the outside looking in... can't wait for being at LART and then later someday when I'm in the position to rent. This is just historic! thanks for sharing with us.
