After serving in 9 countries and shooting thousands and thousands of hours of Redcode - our first two RED One's, ELVIS (sn#0006) & BOND (sn#0007), went off to RED as "guinea pigs" to test the new Mysterium-X sensor upgrade program - and be ... reborn.

Aldey, Pliny, Eric Camp & I took the cameras out to shoot some night exteriors at ISO 1600 - all available light.

Let me just say this - Mysterium-X is AMAZING.

I kept looking at the LCD thinking - "this is gonna look like shit when we get back process the files" - because I just could not believe it, even with my own eyes.

So here's a little taste - this is H264 crunched from ProRes so sorry about the banding - ZERO nose reduction - and let me also say ... the noise is smooth and sexy - both Foundry Furnace & Neat Video can clean it with little to no effort - I'll try to post some shots with denoise processing when I get a second.

This stuff is just "point & shoot" - ISO 1600 - REDCINE-X processing with just minor FLUT and white balance adjustments - NO DI.

You would be INSANE not to upgrade your RED One.

If someone has crazy bandwidth - just PM me upload instructions and I'll up the 2K H264 version.

Looks like your server is already getting hammered, Mark. I'm downloading now (137.8 kB/s - 23.3 MB of 673.1 MB, 1 hour left)

ISO 1600 is a very important benchmark.
 
Congratulation
 
Just started the DL and yeah, it's definitely getting HAMMERED.
 
though I saw it today already, would like to see it again!! but she's barely loading!
 
Ha! I wasn't near a computer when you tweeted, so I just started DL-ing it on my Droid. Guess the speed isn't due to trying to get over 3G, but the fact that everyone want's to see your awesomeness.
 
hey, how about uploading it to rapidshare? Would that work?

Mark,

Which lenses where used?
Click to expand...

A 16mm, 25mm & 35mm Master Prime + an 85mm Ultra Prime. RPPs were all out on rentals. We shot everything wide open - but many shots we had to pull back in RC-X - the subway stuff we pulled back to ISO 800 I think - so we could have stopped down on many shots. We are going to start "proper" testing now - this was just "point, shoot and see what we get".
 
Awesome, waiting to finish dloading but will get there...

thanks for sharing
