Stills from RedcineX How do you Sharpen? (Or treat your stills)

[Adrian Weinbrecht]

We find to get the best out of our Red Dragon stills, we need to sharpen the files a bit using 'Unsharp Mask' around 205 and a small amount of Clarity 0.433.

Without this the files are a bit lacking....... for Stills only.

I was wondering how does everyone else treat their stills ?

A.D.D is a better way to export stills from Redcine. It also has unsharp control.

Plus, why not finess them in photoshop?

Good points Bob

We were just aiming to get a result similar to what we'd get using a DSLR and Capture One. In comparison the red tiffs are quite soft straight out of RedcineX. We don't always put our stills through Photoshop and often deliver straight from Capture One or RedcineX.
