It's two problems:
1) Curves on the RAW -> RGB conversion were a bit off.
2) CA from the lens. The question was: will we have tools in REDCINE to deal with #2. It's assumed that once they get REDCINE dialed in #1 won't be a problem as the color response should be just about perfect.
I.E. you shoot a gray gradient and the entire gradient should be a neutral color. This just takes time as you have to learn the natural response curve of the sensor and the de-mosaic process you're using.
It's the same with any monitor. I have a jaggy custom built LUT for my monitor so that it will display a neutral colored gradient. All monitors and sensors have a natural uneven response characteristic that has to be artificially corrected for using calibration tools.
When they deliver the RED Camera REDCine should include this base LUT to ensure an even color response.
