  • 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 :)

October 30th Announcement Feedback

Yes they are R, the M as you can imagine has far too short of a back focal distance.

The initial Leica R mount will most likely the traditional R mount.. ROM support may come down the road depending on demand ( since the ROM lenses send data it requires software development and that takes time and of course money )

The choice is not to have the search function for now, or let the server crash and not be able to do anything.. choice is yours :)

I think everything should be good in the morning. It probably would be good to make some sort of summary thread in Crucial that has the main points though...

Would it help if you hosted the big images in the announcement on Flicker? I was wondering why REDUser had died and then I saw the 2 pages of full screen JPEGs... also Ace's helpful hint for everyone to switch to 40 posts per page instead of the default was also probably poorly timed. ;)

all the images were on separate servers.. but thats not really what bogs down the servers... search function is incredibly taxing on the server resources and most people hit the new posts button when they first gets to the site, which means 2000+ searches going on this morning all at the same time over and over and over again. When the server starts to get slow it compounds the issue as people then keep hitting the refresh button, and it goes on and on and on.

This is just a temporary inconvenience.. Im just glad the server didn't actually go down even once today, there was some periods there around 3pm that were absolutely insane.
 
will a 1st AC be abel to control focus for the canon electronic lenses on the red mote remotely
 
Red Matte Box

Red Matte Box

Red Matte Box

Does it have a swing away adaptor ?

What size filter trays ?

Can additional filter trays be added ?

Is there some form of bellows adaptor ?
 
Auto or Follow focus ?

Am I understanding this correctly. The auto focus can be controlled via a touch screen ?

Is the auto focus able to lock and track a selected point and track focus on that selection. If it can how good is it. Im guessing its not going to replace the focus puller here but adds to their tool kit.

With say Canon L or Nikon lenses are the focus motors up to tracking a selected target ? no critisim intended just trying to understand....

1. No it is a clip on.

2. 4 x 5.6

3. Theoretically yes, Currently no. ( 2 trays standard )

4. Yes bellows adapters for different lens diameters.
 
RED Rocket™ Break out box.

We would like some analogue audio for of Audio monitoring, Id guess we can break out with a separate audio only device or can we use this type of device.

We would really like it to be balanced but you get the idea. We are concerned about delay and any other possible issues. An suggestions on how to do this welcome.

you will always be limited to the speed of the motors in any given lens. For some people that use Canon and Nikon lenses they are ok with that tradeoff..

The RED Electronic FF lenses are designed with motion tracking and motion recording as a foundation however, so the performance of those lenses in both motor speed, lens noise, breathing, etc. will far exceed ( we believe ) other electronic lenses on the market.

There is something in those renders of the RED Electronic FF lens that nobody has picked up yet.... something that is actually pretty incredible ( and a first )
 
Heat output/Power consumption of Epic S35 compared to Red One.

We use Red One in Housings and can have potential over heating problems.

What is the approximate heat output of an Epic S35 with required modules compared to Red One in terms of precentage ie 50% 75%. Just a rough figure would help.

Would other brains with say FF35 generate more heat/consume more power ?

You mean the auto manual switch, I cant read whats on the switch behind it.....
 
I assume it has something to do with the switch behind the Auto/Manual. I also noticed that the current focus distance is highlighted in red. Is that something special going on?
 
And on that Red Gunner render what is that lens anyway ? and is the front grip some form of motorised control, may be I need better glasses but do I see a gear controling the front lens ring ?
