Questions..?

[Mike P.]

Speaking of RCXp, any chance it'll become (massively) multi-threaded at some point? Even if it's just in the batch-rendering department (rather than having to do it command-line style.) Or possibly GPU-acceleration as an interim solution for those that don't quite need an RR?

Question / sugeston.

If no still mode. Could you not let us address the side handle red button to a "marker" it would be great even for motion. just push that button while recording and the current recorded frame gets a tag. thats' possible to jump to in red cine x pro then the still photo guys that want to snap frames can do that all they want while the camera is in record mode. For motion I would like to do the same for the good takes. Even give the director the red mote so he can trough in tag marks for good moments in the takes...

that is exactly the way its going to work...

Wonderful thread and answers. Thanks Jarred.

Is there a Redrocket 2 around the corner?

Not in the near future. I am sure there will be one someday.... but not anytime soon. The RedRocket still is killing it.. and if you want faster just put 2 into your system :)

RCP-X is one of the products we make that Personally Jim and I are most proud of. What our RC-X team has accomplished is incredible.. There is alot of stuff coming.. alot of really cool stuff.

I promise you almost every request for RC-X stuff in this thread has already been on their list. That doesn't mean it will ever get released.. but they are thinking about it. all of it.

Best thread EVER.

Random question. Can you set the power/record button to Only be power? Last time I tried couldn't get it to work.

I keep hearing about these sensor NDs and in the button assigning menus you can choose ND related commands. How will these NDs work?

Also I'm so psyched about how you guys operate :D growing up in a society based on "disposable" products I can't tell you how highly I regard upgradability and craftsmen ship. Thank You

Any plans on upgrading the frame rate past 300 any time on the EPIC? I want 1000fps, but I don't want to spend as much as vision research want me to spend on the phantom camera line, with their 3.0MP cameras.....

We were just talking about this the other day :)

heh heh heh....

+1 , this is where it all started for me - "Crossing the Line" would love to see it! Thanks

Gyro and Accelerometers = in camera image stabilization

shoot at 4k with a 5k frame of "give".

That would be beast.

Is there a chance we'll see a "Scarlet Spec Series" of SSDs, not just the 32gb, but 64, 128, 256 priced accordingly?

Not that it's needed, but does that mean HDRx on Dragon will go up to 21+ stops?

What is the native ISO of Dragon? What is the ballpark cost for Scarlet-to-Dragon at this point?

+1 on this. Would be great for 80% of jobs/markets that don't require varispeed. If they can support the highest resolution of Red MX/Scarlet/Epic/Maybe Dragon, but only up to say 30fps max (although more would of course be awesome), and be much more affordable, that would help everyone on tight budgets, and even the big productions who don't need varispeed. It would also use up SSDs which didn't make the grade for varispeed. We could then just buy/hire full speed media when varispeed is required.

No doubt! Come to think of it though, it doesn't need to be in camera, but in RCX-Pro. I wonder how useful that data will be to motion tracking. "You want to comp this in where, here? Bang! It's done!""I know it's a hand held shot, but seriously, it's done."
