RC3/RG2: a good compromise between on-set monitoring and CC starting point?

[Álex Montoya]

I'm finding that using this combination (RC3/RG2) in Redcine-X sets a pretty nice starting point for color correction, since it's flatter than RG3 but not as flat as Redlogfilm. While shooting it would yield as well a watchable image for on-set monitoring purposes.

Am I overlooking something? Can it work? Is there a chance that RG2 can be selectable on camera in future firmware updates?

That's the beauty of RAW and changeable in RedCine. Shoot whatever on set, and grade with RedLogFilm. I'm also pretty sure RG2 will always be there in camera.

Bob, If I'm not mistaken you got a Samurai, correct?
Since clean SDI is close, I'll possibly buy one. Do you know if it will be possible to output RC3/RLF on SDI meanwhile monitoring RC3/RG3 on lemo connected monitor?
Thanks
