Dear Jarred,


I do not expect an answer to this. Looking for a chance. Please with a cherry on top. I know there's a lot of wishful thinking, but that's what we do best besides make pretty pictures. So much to read today...


Realist
1. 30 fps Epic-W
2. 4K Pro-Res


Idealist
1. Sampling S35mm sensor so even at its full size the 8K sensor could produce 4K RAW without cropping in. Being able to do this and take advantage of the higher frame rate would be perfect IMO.
2. HDMI out at 4K please and thank you.


Might have missed it, but has it been confirmed that Epic is 8K? I figured it would be 7K. 8K at say 12 fps would be too much of a tease for EPIC. We're not talking Scarlet here so the frame rate has to be reasonable. 7K at 30 fps would make sense to me. I'm not saying I wouldn't indulge the 8K flavor just not expecting it.


Jarred, if there was only one question I could ask you this year, then I would ask, "Are there as many Helium Weapons built as Epic-Ws?". Inquiring minds need to know if they roll up their ones and zeros will it get them a Weapon Helium or Epic Weapon out of the gate.


Haven't heard anyone beg the question about pulling focus. How hard is it going to be to tell if you're in focus? Our common field monitors barely show HD let alone 4K.


Forgive me if any of my quests already have answers I haven't seen. Looks like October is going to be a big month. I have an OG pasta pass coming and a new camera. What more could a guy wish for?


How many people are going to try to fill their balloons with my camera? Kidding of course, but wonder how many names you guys look at before you decide which one. Is it going to say Helium plated on the side?


At the end of the day, what I really love is that RED is pushing the limits. Thank you so much. I can't wait for more higher res content. RED is bringing it.


Reduser for life,
Collin Martin

Any info on the new Redvolt V-mount batteries?

I'm using them every day and they are awesome. Still months of testing left on them though...

How many teasers / easter eggs are in that pic? hmmm :)
 
12FPS at 8K... 9:1 compression. My guess is that is the limit for 8K (though still hopeful for more). Although he clearly is in photo mode at 1/144.
 
Well, we know it's at least 12fps at 8k and can do 4k proress 422HQ...

I wonder what will be left to reveal besides the price? And what is left to tease the next two weeks...


edit: Also that histogram at 3200iso... yeah I could work with that.
 
The current working ProRes output to 2K is a scaled 2K, correct? So even if shooting 6K on a Weapon or 5K on a Scarlet-W, it is scaling (and not cropping) to 2K for ProRes... is that correct?

The 4K ProRes image he showed did say 24 FPS in the corner. So the question is whether that was scaling from 8K to 4K ProRes at 24FPS or from something less... like 7K or as Samir mentioned, 7.5K WS.

(Never mind, that 24FPS in that corner is just the Project Frame Rate)
