New gallery shots...

Although the still doesn't really do justice to the nature of the shot :-) The girls weren't very experienced "cigar lighters", and fell into laughter.

Which was actually a nice moment during the first IBC screening. The room was filled with tension, and the first shots were ultra smooth and clean, and then there were these girls mucking about with the cigar and you could hear muffled laughter and giggling through the room. Which probably was exactly why Jim chose to show this take. It looked darn good at 4k though.

The full clip which included the watch, the girls, a man smoking a cigar, gum bubble blowing and the car played 4K in the IBC Digital Cinema on a Sony 4K projector.

The same clip was running in the booth on a 1080 plasma screen and in 2K on an Apple display.

A short section of the car clip was playing on a Viewsonic (almost) 4K monitor to show off the dynamic range and an early development version of the REDCODE codec.

Pretty impressive that the light is in the shot itself. Look how nicely it rolls off on the car and how much detail is still visible in the shadows. You can also just see the light behind car's mirror on the right, which is pointing *towards* the camera! You can see how it blends nicely with the mirror itself instead of harsh blownout highlights.

The Porsche shot fills my screen and it's named "downsize for web" :crybaby: :)

How did you do that? No matter how many times I click it, I can only see the small 1440x810 pixel thumbnail. I think it's rather cute that there are cameras that deliver that image size as their final resolution. I guess those must be nice for quick pre-visualizations and the like. :)

I'm sure he's seeing the same thing we're all seeing; he probably just has a monitor with a low screen resolution. The name of the image is called "still-downsize-for-web," because obviously it's been downrezzed from its native 4K size, but if you had a monitor set to 800x600 or 1024x768 even the downsized image would be larger than the screen.

My laptop is native 1920x1200 and the Dell monitor is 2560x1600, so I can't wait to see those full-sized 4K images showing up soon! Then even those will be too big for my desktop! Darn it, I need to start saving for a bigger monitor.

My wallet is not going to be very happy come Q1 2007. :2vrolijk_08:
 
Please Full Size Images

Please Full Size Images

Hey Jim, Graemme, RED Team,

Thank you so much for the downsized images but there are many of us out here who can display a full 2k image at least and are ready to look at some, say, 2k-sized frame grabs. I'm trying to sell the Executive Producer of our next project on RED and have nothing to really show her but the website. She is skeptical of a relatively unproven company and understandably wants some 2k (or at least HD-size) images. Any idea of when these are coming?

oh realllly. you have a 4k monitor??
ummm. i think many may display 1080p...but 4k? The highest res lcd screen is the viewsonic which is close to 4k but no cigar. then there is the projector that is 4k by sony.

hehe, buuut I get the gist of what you mean dvxsandiego. you want bigger files. Yeah, some 1080p grabs/footage would be splendid.

Jim already stated that he will have new footage posted next week..so I am sure we'll get some goodies next week.
 
Anyone notice the 3 or possibly 4 black (or deep gray) specks on the image of the car? They don't look to be on the image surface, per se. I just happened to notice them. wondering what they were. At first, I thought maybe someone needed to wash their car, but one black speck within the windshield is probably the most noticable and kinda made me wonder what it is.
Anyways, there are 3 for sure. One in the windshield and two others, that look the same. A fourth one could just be reflection. It doesn't quite look the same.
See if you can spot them. Where's Waldo?

Very nice. I'm glad. And grateful to Jim. All our confidence is worth more than our efforts to contribute to his dream and vision, our dream too.
