Jim Jannard just posted about the much-anticipated Build 16 of the camera’s firmware, which is due out in Alpha very soon. Sounds good to me:
What is Build 16?
Since you all have waited so long for this infamous build, I think it is only fair to tell you some of it’s advantages.1. We will re-rate the camera’s ISO.
2. There will be less noise.
3. There will be no “compression issues” in difficult scenes.
4. There will be a new “working space”.
5. It will be much easier to set exposure.
6. You will have too many options…
And a few others.
Please be warned. Build 16 does NOT make the RED ONE perfect. We live in a real world. But it does fully demonstrate our commitment to constant progress. It was only 8 months ago that we shipped our 1st cameras. The amount of improvement since then is incredible, even to us. And we are not about to stop. We are learning everyday. At some point, we will know more than the other guys ever dreamed about…. then, we will be dangerous.

OK. Thanks Jim.
Extreme Build ?
higher datarate ? not just Redcode 28 or 36 but 72 or even 100MB/s in 4K 16:9 and 2:1.
I disappointed for the uncompressed Raw port development @RED.
Uncompressed RAW materials can last longer than any future codec holds , and always only leaders have their options.
S.Two and Codex Digital Field recorders and others will be coming to record uncompressed Raw files with log table.
