Will you post your own pics?

[Michael Brennan]

I'm wondering if the recent debate about usefullness of 1080p is split between those who can only deliver raw media to clients ( CF, hard drives or tape ) and those who intend to process and scale pictures themselves and so deliver final format pics on drives?


A connected question is use of a live full spec HDSDI output may be important to those who are not post oriented and will deliver camera drives to client.

I hope the poll doesnt have many holes in it and we can establish % of those who will post process RED themselves as well as those who have a use for a live full spec HDSDI output.


Poll Definitions

The term "HDSDI"
Relates to using a live output of the camera delivering SMPTE 1080p and 720 60p standard.
1/ To feed recorded pictures direct from RED to a tape deck or into a BNC for "TV" use, incluidng playback at 720/60p of 720/120p acquired pics.
2/ To use RED as a live camera for projection or outside broadcast ect

The term "Camera Drives"
Can include making a straight clone of RED drives or CF on location but with no RED processing or scaling.

I will do both, the more formats the better, but lets get 2k, 4, and lots of framerates running first!! (I don't like cropping, thanks for doing the scale at 100fps RED)

RED number 610

just to be clear ...
HD-SDI is 1080p with a clean (no info )frame ...
HDMI is 720p with camera info in frame ( what the camera operator sees )
so i don't know of 720p over HD-SDI ???

So, I clicked a bit fast.

I'll do both, and really like live HD-SDI

Just for clarification, there is no scale at 100fps. The maximum framerate of the full sensor is 60p, so scaling from 4K will never get you higher than that. The choice is windowed at >60 or scaled at 60 and below.
