This is big.....

Tomorrow morning we will be releasing a new RCX as well as a new Camera build that includes DRAGONcolor and REDgamma 4.

Graeme's greatest creation to date, DRAGONcolor is a dramatic improvement in color science and incorporates the best of DRAGON down to the sensor level. DRAGONcolor is paired with REDgamma4 which includes smoother roll-offs and true blacks.


RCX

Updated: New look and feel.
Added: DRAGONcolor and REDgamma4.
Added: Advanced Dragon Debayer (A.D.D.) with HDRx and motion support.
Added: Support for camera generated markers.
Added: CUDA support.
Added: Ability to filter wav files from the browser.
Added: Rating can now be applied to both clips and frames through context sensitive keyboard shortcuts.
Added: Rating a frame now automatically creates a frame marker.
Updated: Default keyboard shortcuts for rating, video out and L/R stereo toggling have been changed.
Fixed: Improved OpenCL and Cuda card compatibility checks.
Fixed: Image corruption when doing rotation in 3D side by side mode.
Fixed: Crash when doing still snapshots.
Fixed: Some fit height modes where incorrect when Rocket was enabled for decoding.

These have me really curious...
 
Does RED think they've squeezed all they can out of the MX now? I have no plans to upgrade to Dragon and would like to see MX color science developed further.
