Slowest frame rate RED can do

[explosive]

Any idea?

1 fps. This will not be enabled at 1st shipment but will be in an upgrade fairly soon after.

Ta mate. Sounds fab.

And will this be do-able at 4k as well? Or will we have run at 2k (like >30 frame rates)?

To my knowledge, the camera can't shoot 4K@>30 onboard because it's simply too much data to compress [REDCODE] in realtime. Since 1 FPS is the exact opposite [much less data], it seems that it could be captured in 4K REDCODE RAW onboard.

Good answer. Makes sense.

mmmm....time delay sunset in 4k....

1 fps. ...

Single frame exposure as well?

As oppossed to... multiple. single. frame. exposure??

Not quite sure what you mean.

 

[Brook Willard]

I think he wants to use it like a still camera?

 

[Gavin Greenwalt]

Maybe uncompressed single frames?

I am guessing so.

yeh maybe he means the shutter speed, leaving the frame exposed for longer?

Actually, I am not even sure whether RED has a variable shutter speed :-|
Does it?

 

[Brook Willard]

Yes, it does. Adjustable in increments of time [1/xth of a second] or angle [x degrees].

There's some good info in the FAQ I have linked in my signature if you haven't checked it out.

Oh right, i get it. You want to do something like stop motion animation, am I guessing?

So you can adjust the shutter angle too? oh, coolness.

Sorrtt, couldnt find that section in the faq? Had a bit of a a look, but will look more when i get home... awesome job btw. I think red should pay you to do their manuals

 

[Brook Willard]

I haven't put anything about shutter angles in there yet. This'll serve as my little reminder to add that section.

Or on sequences about frantic housewives pepped up on diet pills fromn a dodgy doctor.

One wonders how exactly the shutter mechanism works given that we know it is not a mechanical shutter.

<<<wonders.

 

[Brook Willard]

There has been quite a lot of discussion about the way the shutter works... a search for "shutter" will probably yield some great results.

Right. I was referring to time lapse cinematography.
