WEAPON "831" AUDREY OLPF standart ;)

[luigivaltulini]

mm STANDARD heeh

I'm happy as a child wowowowo
I am back home now and fedex handed me the package
Weapon CF 831, called the "Audrey" in memory of Hepburn, the beautiful.

Okay, what can I tell you in a few minutes of use.
Simply magnificent camera, color, dynamics, noise, compared Epic Dragon, better. We're not talking abysmal differences, but there are.
Many differences from the Epic dragon I think Phil has already said it all.
I'm a guy who uses the camera very very light and gimbal.
So I was a little disappointed hehe I know many have already repeated but I really miss the side handle, Jarred hope you at NAB surprise me

I was also convinced that the module could use the XL redvolt, saw the picture of Peter Jackson, but unfortunately the battery does not work and I have to use the XL ... Shit above the Gimbal was convenient for the Redvolt shoot fast ..
I appreciate the WiFi integrated with the software that I love Mikael Foolcontrol is simply spectacular.
I also commanded the top plate from Wooden, for the few holes on the Weapon not allow me to have the old LCD, and the Bomb simultaneously.
They are waiting for the arrival.

I also tried some shots with ALexa quickly and Weapon to understand (THIS IS NOT A TEST) only in a real situation on low light...All open t2.8.i focus are not perfect ... but I was also running before dinner
I put Alexa 500 and ISO 800 Weapon,why Weapon have less noise at 500 iso.I was looking for a similar level of noise.
In short to talk about dynamic range can say that are the same, no one not known to stop in more ALexa, are fucking close, and If we think of 8MP VS 19MP against wow, I would say Weapon is the best in dynamic range . And in certain situations with HDRx I can extract even more .
I can see in files the highlights of ALexa is slightly more soft ...... But I'm sure that with the filter of carbon 1 lowcon from John this be the same

There is one other thing the ProRes Weapon must have some bugs, the blue channel is clipping in the highlights. Phil Maybe I can say something.:biggrin:

I also added an audio file of the fast internal mic to 4 meters away talking about normal.
I added some files around ProRes 1080 to 4444 at 32000 kelvin with lights of shit, who were at home hehe , no grading. Weapon normal and + add at t2.8, and Weapon to T3.6 ..

here files to playysss :

congrats luigi, great first impression review, excited to see more .

 

[Martin Stevens]

Awesome post Luigi.

THANKS!

 

[Phil Holland]

Congratulations Luigi! I'll take a look at the blue clipping this weekend, perhaps by rendering out the same flavor of ProRes via .R3D to compare.

I'm going on a limb, but to me Weapon is currently the best digital cinema camera on the market. Dollar for dollar and I guess pound for pound Feels so much more flexible and complete now. It's a beast.

 

[Sabovic Adis]

Aren't all three clipping...plus, blue aditionally at WB-ing?

 

[Ketch Rossi]

Congratulazioni carissimo!!

 

[luigivaltulini]

thanks Sergio e Martin

Phil , Phil , surely now is the best on the ground.. if only this beast would come out two years ago eheh
But hey 1.4kg of pure fucking power.

YES from the REDCINE ProRes be perfect, while outgoing camera has a few bugs.
Later monster other things.


But most surprising dear Phil, are the fucking 3D LUT, output directly from DaVinci is loaded in the camera wowowo is a dream .. My DOP have the smile behind the ears hehe this thing is a bomb.
I think we should make a thread dedicated to the 3D LUT on Weapon


Adis sure .. but I have the strange blue channel highest compared to ProRes output from REDCINE-x.

GRazie Ketch friend, you are the man who brought me the first camera in the house beautiful RED ONE do not forget 'never hehe and born a beautiful friendship

Hello Luigi,

Perhaps, if it's possible, try and see if a custom in camera Weapon 3D LUT can make the in camera ProRes match the RedCine exported ProRes
in terms of fixing the highlight clipping. If this works, then this should be a good indication that Red can provide a firmware fix.

you can be, to write tomorrow bomb squad ..
We should also say that in any case the camera ProRes be without DEB and then in case of low light more noisy when exit REDCINE-x with DEB.
Another Bug be the Motion Mount, all become blue .. I do not understand .. so I have to use the filters on the normal mattebox.

pics , prores out of camera and prores out of redcine-x

Congrats Luigi, I know its crazy good.. right..
Hey I talked to RED Tech a couple days ago about the Motion Mount Blue thingy..I having the same issue with Canon or PL MM's and LL OPLF and HLST so its across the board. They (RED) are on it and it sounds like its one of the priorities and should be addressed in an upcoming build update...

OK Luigi, so on your 72 core monster, how many fps in Resolve for 6k 3:1 24fps full debayer on a 4k timeline, can you get fluid 24fps playback or only above 5:1 compression ? Thanks!
