Jim,

My respect once again. You're the best business man that we could ask for our money, we already know. My first point in order to put my confidence on a reservation last year. More than one, actually. But as shooter, you have posted the best images to date from the production units indeed. You're a great photographer/cinematographer. You know how to frame it. My respect twice.

My best kudos,
E. :-)
 
Simply Awesome.

Any details on the REDALERT or REDCINE settings used?

I used RED Alert! because REDCINE is being re-built. I opened the files in RED Alert!, checked the WB, opened the histogram, adjusted exposure (not much needed), set DRX setting, viewed in REC 709, made Quicktimes, then selected a suitable frame and output a 4K DPX file that I opened in Photoshop.

I can drag the QT wrapped files into FCP2, edit and output. I can also open the QT wrapped files in QT Player and watch them... then output to a QT movie. I have a lot to do on the plane trip back to CA.

Jim

Thanks - man, this is just unreal. But no! It's REAL!

Jim, you are a true inspiration. When you have a sec, I'd love to hear your description of how you feel at this moment. Rock on.

Great to hear the "smiling thing", this much energy you gave in the last month, this much energy comes back these days. You deserve it and more.
 
He has no need, that's for sure! LOL
 
The photos that Jim is sharing with us are more than what they seem. They are the culmination of a dream realized. He is standing on the track, photographing his passion with the camera he has wanted all along. It didn't exist 3 years ago and he set out to change that. In the process he has changed everything. No company, no profit and no achievement along the way means more to this man right now than the ability to stand next to his car and capture the moment ....with his camera, the camera he made. This is a milestone for him, maybe one of his greatest. And he let us all in on it. Thanks Jim.
Probably the best 1st post I have ever seen! Well spoken and I agree 100%!
 
Did you shoot that blind with your monitor still off? That zoom is incredible!

I took the Panasonic monitor off the camera because I couldn't see shit in the sunlight and I was tired of dragging around 7 pounds of monitor and extra battery for nothing. I went into "Crank" mode. I think I have a pretty good "feel" for what is going on at the track. But I have to admit that sometimes I go back to the motorhome, download and find out I'm not as good as I thought I was. This time, it worked out. Fortunately, there is no script and deadline to meet. :-)

I love this stuff. I love to shoot. I love building this camera. Thanks to our customers so I don't have to fund this all by myself...

Jim
 
keep making great stuff and we are shure to keep funding !

Aloha

Did you use your two sided coin ?
