Jim Jannard has posted on reduser.net that there will be a new firmware upgrade to Red One coming soon which will allow 4.5K, 2.40:1 at 30fps. Sweet!
For those of you who don’t know, 2.40:1 is super widescreen (a new high-def TV with 16:9 aspect ratio is 1.78:1). Check out the graphic comparting aspect ratios on Wikipedia, which describes 2.40 as:
35 mm anamorphic from 1970 onwards. Sometimes rounded up to 2.40:1[1] Often commercially branded as Panavision format or ‘Scope.
