  • 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 :)

More HDRx...

This was shot with Peter Lik and Mick Plumridge in a ghost town near Las Vegas over the weekend. Both said "impossible" when we went into the barn. It was wicked dark in there and blistering noon desert-sun outside. They both fell over dead when they saw this. I called 911. They are OK now... :-)

Holy molies! Now that is impressive. It feels like what the human eye sees.
 
Nice...
Amazing how much detail retained indoor and the high lights outdoor
are still way managed, there even seems to be distant detail with a gentleman
on the porch...

Very cool indeed
 
This is going to save so much time and money it's not even funny, oh my god.
 
Trust me... the outside would be blown to smithereens with any other camera.

I dont know how to express my technical delight at how 'normal' this looks - given it should look either a) horrible or b) look extremely fake.

This is an exceptional technical achievement and will change to the core the nature of cinematography. Seriously, this will alter how you light. I say this not from a "gosh wow red you rock" pov - this will technically alter the balance of on set to post production lighting decisions - shifting some key creative technical decisions later in the process.

But again while I *know* that to be true - I cant get past this shot for it 'normal properties'. I am stunned at how 'unprocessed' and 'real' this looks (given it is so new and previously impossible/difficult). This is a HUGE technical achievement. Congrats to the team (for producing such a normal looking shot - if that makes sense?).

Now you can see why we want to put this in ALL our cameras!

I see them in the back of the photo, resting... ;-)
Just great, as always. Will this also be possible with the RED Scarlet Fixed or perhaps not so extreme ?
 
Rather amazing. I guess in this case the color temperature is quite different indoors and outdoors. Did you need to do anything special to make the interior and exterior to match this well?

We have raised the price of 2/3" Scarlet so that we can include this technology. We think it is totally worth it. Groundbreaking from where we sit.

I'm personally having a hard time imagining as to how dark or how bright it really was in person just because I'm not used to seeing such a clean image come out of a camera.

For the next HDRx preview, can we get a snap shot from another camera to get an idea of how a typical camera would react or a non HDRx version shot with the same RED? just a thought.

Great job. Though I'm not a pro (still a student), I wish such a feature would come to ALL cameras. It definitely is setting a new standard in the industry.

Not graded and set at WB 5600 and 0 Tint. Nothing special.
