Well, I am one of the few owners of the original 2.5k BMCC over here in Austria since February - afaik delivery is still slow.

The lack of an OLPF is no problem for me. With some special treatment...

That's very possible. I saw those kind of artifacts on all sort of low light footage of all sorts of cameras as soon as the noise was cleaned up.
Had that on RED ONE footage where the black shading...

@ Bruce

I had the same problem under OSX with Cineform and AFX and even filed in a bug report (6 months and problem not solved yet). The problems seem to start after a Quicktime update.
But I...

Why reinventing the wheel? Cineform does all you want from a codec, supporting up to 4k, read/write on Mac & PC, 4:4:4, 12 bit, and more. Try the 14 day demo of Cineform Studio Premium.

The RAIDON company sells external RAID-5 enclosures for 4x 2,5" harddrives. They can be connected via eSATA or USB3.0/2.0:

Well, I am all for digital, but I have to say that I am not very happy with 2k projections. Sitting at the ideal position in a cinema, which is normally in one of the middle rows, a 2k projection is...

Adobe Premiere Pro CS4/CS5 can do that. Altough it does not work well with non-native speakers or people with heavy accent.

I just recently bought a HP EliteBook 8540w - working in CS5 is a breeze.
* Intel Quadcore i7-740QM
* Quadro FX1800M 1GB
* 8 GB RAM + 2 extra memory slots for a total of 16 GB
* 500 GB HD with...

Not true - even the JPG carries some details in the highlights - and I bet I could get back a lot more from the RAW itself.

I think it is pretty amazing what you can get out of the Canon XH-A1...

I took the freedom to give it a shot:

All done without masks, just curves, exposure, saturation and gradients.
Goal was to...

Well it certainly depends on your viewing distance.
I did some research and found news from 2006 saying that the Cineplexx I attended is using a Christie CP2000. Well I heard rumours, that the...

Finally I have seen Knowing - saw it as a 2k digital projection. I liked the story, but not the end with the kids. The German synchro might have salvaged some dialogue and acting performance problems...

The Problem with AE is that it is still a 32bit application. I had the same problem as you - AE started to render fast and after a few frames it began to crawl - not utilizing the cores anymore.
I...

Yes, you could use a single footage approach too, but I found tweaking curves could not deliver the same good results.
Thing is, that it makes a difference if you are using a curve to increase the...

Just to clear things up:
A mod has moved these postings from another thread where kaya attempted to hijack a bit my service offer.

So this bickering seems a bit out of context now. Sorry for that.

Answer for Ryan and Impagliazzo:

The procedure is quite simple:

* Export footage with ISO 160 (or whichever ISO gives you the most highlight details) and with ISO1280 or even ISO2000...

Really? I wrote to you, that "I would like to ask you to remove your posting because I feel this kind of obtrusion of my thread as not very professional.
And that I hope for your understandig."

My problem is that this thread is not called kayas tips'n'tricks.



I don't know what's the trouble you got with me - I don't remember messing with you anywhere. I did not tell you to shut up,...

Kaya, your examples are not very convincing to me, you can clearly see the remaining noise - crushing blacks and setting some denoise settings in Redcine is not even close to the quality I can...

Danke, Dominik.



I am looking forward to give your footage some nice polish - I am quite a quality freak :) - tweaking all night long...

Second one is a campfire with a 2-bank kino and some lights for the shrubbery in the back (which was quite weak).

Some new examples:

First one is a 120fps 2k shot of a sunset.
I tried some new tricks to create a HDR like image, ISO-160 and ISO-1280 combined, both denoised.

Hi,

I was just wondering if there is any possibility to access the codec settings from within RedAlert / RedLine / Clipfinder. Reason is that I was using MJPEG-B proxies, but the quality is very...

I have the r3d files, yes. But they are quite large. Which one are you interested in?
