Red Digital Cinema has added two 4K test images to the Red One Still Gallery. Previously they have only showed off 1K resolution images, the latest two are 4096×2304. The first image is a closeup of a woman drinking from a retro milk bottle, and was shot with the RED 300mm f2.8 lens.

“24fps at 1/48 sec. 4.9k 12 bit, down-converted to 4k, down-converted to 8 bit jpeg. No noise reduction, No sharpening.”

The second image is a wider shot of the two women, and a Cooke 65mm lens was used. Very pretty images.

“4.9K REDCODE RAW 12 bit, downrezzed to 4k and converted to 8 bit jpeg. , 24fps at 1/48th sec. Original REDCODE RAW frame is 2.5MB”

In related news, Cinematographer David Stump has been color chart and greenscreen testing the Red One camera. Mike Curtis has been following the story, and you can see David’s on-going investigations into the camera here and here. Lots of test charts and REAL info for those that know how to analyze it.

And finally, HD For Indies also has some snippets of info on how fast REDCINE will run, what CPU requirements, etc. All from none other than all-things-video-genius Graeme Nattress.
