NAB 2013..

[Yousuf Abbasi]

I'm just glad I have my RED MX and money saved in the bank. Because by the time NAB 2013 comes around, I will be ready for whatever RED brings my way.

I must say, though, that as fast as technology changes, we as end-users must continually assess our NEEDS versus our WANTS. And to that point, I am sure RED MX will fulfill my NEEDS for several years to come, perhaps even a decade. But, I am nonetheless extremely excited about what lies behind the "RED curtains" and hope that my wants turn into needs very soon !

Thanks Jim ;-)

Jim...bring us a Burst Mode for Scarlet 240fps (somewhere in between 2K and 5K for a few seconds) and the gap between our followers will become toooooo big for them....

Medium Format + Lightfield + Huge color gamut + HDR (native) @ high FPS so that you can change your motion blur/shutter as meta data by blending frames.

Then exposure, focus, depth of field, framerate and motion blur are all meta data. That means that everything would be meta-data. A true RAW workflow. No more NDs. Just rely on the HDR. No more special effect filters, just simulate pro-mist etc based on HDR data. Want Anamorphic bokeh? Add it in post. Want anamorphic lens flares? Simulate it in post from the HDR data. Want to look like Kodak Vision 3? Use the huge color gamut to perfectly emulate it. Want 48fps? Pull out the sub-frames which add up to each 48fps frame. Want 60fps? Pull out every nth frame for 60fps.

Eventually add extreme resolution and multiple-camera interpolation and you can reposition and zoom.

Just strap on a wide angle lens and set your zoom in post. Need to get closer? Reconstruct 3D Geometry from the lightfield and dolly the camera in and out in post as well.

Next step after that: Volume capture. Super dense 3D point cloud of the whole set.

All the above plus, RED gives us full price trade-in for our Epics since this has obviously made them obsolete. '-)

EDIT: Unless they can do this with a module.

Assuming that the Mayan calendar doesn't hold water... you need to book your reservations for NAB 2013.

Trust me... if anything I have ever said rings true, you need to be there.

Jim

I'll be there. With plenty of water this time ;)

NAB 2013 will be historic... mark my words.

Jim

A preview at IBC 2012 just in case the Maya calendar is right??

[Harrison Houde]

Exactly. Couldnt of said it better. Needs and wants.

[Kazuyoshi Tezuka]

Okay, I will join to NAB2013 from Japan!

But First of all, I am waiting for arrival of BT Scarlet X.
