Strange Green shadows with Motion Mount

[Mark Andersen]

Has anyone else experienced a strong greenish color cast in the shadows when using the motion mount with long exposures (ie; 1/4th or 8th. of a second)? I like to to shoot at 4 FPS crowds and streets but I like to blur the subjects so my favorite tech is to use 1/4 sec exposure and lots of ND, but with the motion mount ND the color gets a little weird. When I go up to over 24th sec. exposures and higher everything looks fine. I still like the MM for travel and quick set ups (no matt box etc.) its great for shooting quickly going from front lit to back lit, shadows to sun etc. I am hoping there will be some firmware fix so the mount will perform better at long exposures, but maybe its just the nature of the technology.

Does this still appear if you reset all metadata in REDCine? (Such as White Balance and Tint?)

I'll try that, and see if I can reset the metadata while in a slow shutter w/motion mount mode. its worth a try.
