Jim Jannard posted two new announcements on reduser.net today:
Red One now shoots 60fps @ 3K
What this means in plain English: You can “overcrank” (i.e., shoot footage with the camera capturing 2.5 times as normal, in the same time period) to make super smooth and beautiful slow motion (when played back at normal film speed of 24 fps (frames per second)). 3K is achieved by shooting to a cropped area (roughly 3000 pixels wide) of the total 4K sensor, yielding quality somewhere between Super 16mm film and 35mm film.
Red Alert has a command line tool
What this means in plain English: you can write scripts to automate a lot of repetitive jobs (initial color grading, for viewing dailies, etc.)
And the other big announcement about Build 14 of Red One camera firmware is still due within the next 18 hours…
