  • 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 :)

Weapon First Impression

I have shot the comparative under and over exposure tests with the Weapon against a Dragon and an Alexa and will post results before Christmas when I can get a pro colorist to look at them but first impressions are that Alexa is still King of the DR and there is not a lot between the Red cameras but will finalise results ASAP.

Awesome! Thanks for doing that Tom! Can't wait to see your test!

OK got an answer from Red on my Support ticket in regards to the ET V Mount module for Weapon not passing through the battery status information:

'Based on the response on this I am seeing so far, it appears to be a firmware or communication issue between the camera and this particular module type- and not an issue specific to your particular quickplate. I will be happy to report it as a bug to our Engineering team, and they can look into correcting the issue for an upcoming Firmware Release Build. Thanks!

Looks like we will have to wait for a firmware fix.

Hi Tom and Everyone! The issue with the battery data was FW related afterall. The corrections have been made and will be part of the v6.1.45 build, which will be released in the near future.

Thank you for your patience and understanding, and happy holidays!

Reading the manual I see there is no hot swapping of LCD or EVFs. This is going to be a big problem. ACs are very used to hot swapping on Epics and Weapon owners will need to make it VERY clear that this is no longer possible.

If I recall correct, the LCD and EVF was never officially hot swappable on the Epic body either. People just did it, at it works at your own risk.
