5 Questions for RED

Well-known member
I have three questions for the Red team:

1. Redcode Raw sounds fantastic, but how will it work for high frame rate shooting (EDIT:to a single drive)?

2. Will Redcode Raw support windowed shooting with S16mm lenses (and again, those high frame rates)?

3. And what is the ISO of the Mysterium sensor?

:dankk2:

Please have the courtesy of doing a search before asking questions that have very easy to obtain answers. Even on Reds own site.
"Initial options will include RED-CAGE™ for mounting accessories and “growing” the camera body."

Question 5 was a joke. I've edited my original post to avoid confusion.

Make it three questions

1) don't understand the question. For higher framerates (over 30 fps) you will need the mini two-drive raid setup or the external "uncompressed" RAW raid system. I can imagine shooting onboard at 2K will allow for higher framerates recording as well (on the flash / harddisk)

2) I would think so

3) Unknown as of yet since the sensor has not been characterized yet
 
The mini two drive raid does not exist as far as I know. I started a thread about that but did not intend to imply its existence.
 
It does exist (the end of the harddrive holder on the rail system should be available in a 2 drive version as well)

Of course as anything this is subject to change...
 
I was working the booth at IBC, this (amongst other things) is what we told people.

The other major stuff:

- onboard 4K recording
- REDCINE application announcement
- 720p electronic viewfinder
- magic focus assist (more on that later in the year) on all screens (EVF, LCD, etc.)
- 18-85 zoom lens
- red-rail
- onboard flash memory (32, 64, 128 GB sizes probably [and others])
- working sensor ;)

The two-drive raid is what I/is called "mini-raid"...

All the exact datarates and options are still being worked on. We have indicated 4K @ 30 fps onboard recording, which is on the flash memory.

*I* think this will also be possible on 1 or 2 harddrives, but it's a bit early for that (harddrive performance is increasing every month so to speak).
 
Thanks guys, I was wondering what the max framerate redcode raw could handle to a single drive. I suspect its going to be a bit of a pain (and expense) to crank up to those higher rates at 4K. But given 4K onboard recording is even possible, I won't complain. Hopefully the two drive raid is the ticket.
