  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

User Preset buttons - Build 16

focus expand
false colour

is there a function that could toggle whats on the display? cycling through it would show or hide all the display overlays, meters, guides etc... (im talking more the buttons on the evf/lcd here)
 
Jarred,

It would be useful, if one of the buttoms could be programmed to quickly change to frame rate between 24 and 120 fps while the format were the maximum one could employ at each frame rate.

Second, it would also be useful if one could set a vertical flip on the LCD. For, the buttons of the LCD are on the top and the screw is on the bottom. However, to install a sun shade, it would be more practical to turn the whole thing upside down.
 
I think that way too many of these requests are getting to complicated. One push, two push, three clicks here and there....just go to the damn menu!

I vote for one push/click each that goes to a specific function. Ideally it would be ideal to be able to adjust each button for exactly what you would like through the menu for quick access but in my opinion i would like:

1: One to one pixel ration
2: 'Assists' toggle (scrolling through the assists (focus, exposure), as Jarred himself liked)...and yes i know this kind of contradicts what i wrote above.

2 cents worth!
 
It would be nice to have the ability to individually disable them as well. (At least No. 1 - I'm a clumsy operator and sometimes inadvertently hit it.) Focus assist (no. 2) isn't a problem, as it's pretty obvious - and easy to correct - just rehit the button.)
 
1. False colour (and/or focus overlay - user definable in the menus)
2. Zoom in (can that be programmed so you can zoom in while recording - on earlier builds you could do this, but not now - does the Red LCD or the EVF do this now while recording without affecting any of the other picture outputs?)

To be honest I'd make the User buttons have as many user definable settings as possible (based on this survey), which could be selected in the menu - like the User buttons you get on the HVX200, EX1 et al.

One button to cycle through prefered exposure assistances (false color -> waveform -> Spot meter -> clean.)

One button to cycle through prefered focus assistances (edge enhancement->focus overlay -> focus assist -> clean)

One EVF /LCD button to cycle through image magnification (Full frame -> 2x -> 1:1)
Click to expand...

Great suggestions!

Please implement the cycling! Since the features in a cycling group are mutually exclusive, cycling is the best and simplest solution to implement them all on a single button.

You still can provide the features separately if someone doesn't like cycling or if he needs only one of the features in a group.
 
False Color!!!!
They are not realy well protected buttoms, actualy they are not protected at all, so I will not place anything that actually afects the image or the proyect.
If the look (lut) option is ready for build 16 I will place it there. It ain't realy changing anything in the information and it can be realy usable a fast change between your inside camera looks (Day, night, high contrast, low, ...)

I like the thought of being able to cycle through things. That said, I personally won't change button 2 from the zoomed in focus mode. However, I would like to put Varispeed or resolution change on that--thought those aren't hard to access from the back either. What I would ask is a way to go up one level in the menu instead of having to start from the top. AKA, sometimes I will be 3 deep in the menu and want to go up one level but all I can do is go to the very top menu:(

Please retain the function to disable the buttons in the menu if desired.

A button to blank (or turn off) the "look around" space would be nice. Also the ability in menu to selectively darken the "look around" to a certain percentage, would even be better.
 
I vote for monitor color on one button. Right now I am constantly switching
back and forth from edge detection to color monitor.

White balance would also be good.
 
A button map app in REDCine or RedAlert would be nice. then we could choose anything we wanted. this could save an xml to the SD card with the new mappings

Click to expand...

That's already implemented. Just push the joystick in the "up" direction. :wink:
 
This is not necessarily a button request, but it would be great if you could save a color temp setting and then be able to recall it if needed. Similar to how you can have two different color temp settings on an F900 (really 8 with the filter wheels, but that's not important). It's happened way to often that I'll white balance early in the day and want to continue shooting at that setting as the light changes, and then bam, the color temp button gets accidentally hit and I loose it. I know you can dial in a setting, which is wonderful, but to be able to save one or two and recall them with the push of a button would be fantastic. If it can't be done, I understand, but I thought I'd put it out there.
