Brilliant!

Still going to wait and see how it treats other people before I upgrade though. No rollback is scary.

Are there changes to v3.2.4 ?

 

[wedowee]

The RedCine and RedAlert versions are currently marked as Beta. Will those versions be changed to release versions, or should we expected upgraded versions? Thanks.

 

[Joel Kaye]

Seems like edge focus assist went from black and white to color somewhere between early 16 and later 16 too. Or am I imagining that?

 

[sander kamp]

Oh, release version!!! I was wondering what was new...

 

[Patric Ralston]

Hi Brent,
Where can I download BUILD 15 V2.2.8? Can you include it in the Build 16 release folder?

Thanks
Patric

Do you ship the new cameras (~2400<) with Build 16 (3.2.5)? Does this mean that new REDs are incompatible with Build 15 (and lower)?

 

[bakopeti]

And of course thanks for the new build! Great work RED team!

 

[David Wyatt]

Fantastic timing - we're just about to start a feature!! Now there are no more excuses for staying Build 15 (Build 16 has recently been the most stable Red build I've ever seen). Congratulations on another milestone!
