Red Raptor | On Set Test 800iso



by Neil Fernandez

"Put the Raptor on set (on another project) with some lighting setups. Shot on 8k24p on 800iso with the Meike FF 35mm. The last shot is on the Tokina Vista 50mm pushed to 2000 iso. Compressed the video down to 4k h265. The M1 MacBook Pro can't handle a 8k output. The Raptor skin tones remind me of the Canon C500 mixed with the Helium. Beautiful combination for me. Since my shooting style is all over the place from documentaries to narratives, this camera can handle all sorts of situations"

I appreciate everyone doing the tests and showing off footage, but, in my opinion, it has been proven that the 2k is way too soft for professional work. In every clip I've seen, it looks like it has missed focus, even at 24fps. With that said, the 4k - 8k range looks incredible.

If anyone has the Canon RF speedbooster, I'd love to see that combined with something like the Sigma 18-35mm cine lens (or some other nice Super35 lens) at 4k's highest frame rate. I think that could be an excellent combination and the best bet for great frame rates and acceptable IQ.

Kerrin,

Considering the crop for the 2K 2.4:1 , it looks acceptable for times when you really need frame rates that high. With the new Enhanced Demosaicing being refined from the 'Beta' stage and by choosing a Scaling Algorithm that maintains or enhances more sharpness, you could potentially improve the quality further.

Thanks for posting all these sample videos! Definitely sold on the upgrade in image quality. One thing I cant find though is a rolling shutter test. Is anyone experiencing the common problems of image distortion from the rolling shutter on the V-Raptor?? Anyone?

 

[rand thompson]

You're welcome Pat! I believe the V-Raptor has a similar rolling Shutter as the Arri Alexa cameras at about aroound 7 to 8ms. I'd be interested in learning more about this image distortion from the V- Raptor.

If any... maybe its a non issue? Hopefully, cause I'm gonna pull the trigger on the raptor as soon as its available in black

Pat,

It was probably some random anomaly that may have shown up under some weird shooting situation that you might not ever see again. However, investigate it until you feel comfortable with making your purchase.:thumbup:

Cool presentation.
Can tell RED is entering a stage where they're refining the tech and settling into a matured design philosophy.

TBH- this current iteration of RED reminds me of the Apple of the mid 2000s which saw some of the greatest tech innovation that set Apple up to be where it is today.

RED already has a decent presence in the industry, but I honestly think these latest cameras are going to see much greater adoption than what was previously accomplished.

Between the form factor, cooling, considerable sensor advancements, color science, UI/UX with RED Control there's too many advances to be ignored.
The new RED color science as shown in Komodo and Raptor truly stands on its own. The look is like the new Kodak 52xx of sorts.

V-Raptor XL may be the final nail.

Brian,

yeah, and I wonder if the XL will have maybe even more surprises.
