Red Digital Cinema camera to do 4K, 60P, 4:4:4, and cook you a mean omelette.
Published by admin December 6th, 2005 in NewsRan across this nugget at HD For Indies…
Ever heard the phrase “all that and a bag of chips”? Red Digital Cinema is a new company (?) that is talking up a camera they intend to deliver. They feature the tagline “WE DECIDED TO SKIP SEVERAL GENERATIONS OF EVOLUTION…” on their website, and based on the hot air specs they are talking, it certainly sounds like it. How does nearly 4K resolution sound? Ok, what about 60P frame rate? That do anything for ya? Full-frame CMOS sensor (similiar to the Arri D20, by the way…) allows the use of “real” 35mm lenses. The hits just keep comin’…
4520×2540 pixel res.
60p, variable frame rate between 1-60fps.
Full-frame CMOS sensor.
4:4:4, 4:2:2 output from HD-SDI or dual fiber-channel outputs.
Select 100, 80, 60, 50, 25, or 19 Mbps.
Accomodates “REAL” 35mm PL mount cinema lenses.
Records to a variety of solid-state media or optical disc (they say “BlueRay”), as well as tape.
Sounds hot. Mike at HD For Indies has a good writeup, opinions, and comments on the camera. Also some comparisons to the Kinetta (which has been coming Real Soon Now for a long time…) Should be interesting if this company can make good on the promises.
UPDATE: Mike/HDFI does a little napkin math with bitrates, and comes to the conclusion that the HD signal pouring out of the dual fiber links could be as high as 2GB/sec (or 7TB/hr), as far as storage requirements go. Yeech.
