THEORY OF OPERATION The RED family of Digital Still and Motion Cameras (DSMC) provide high performance digital imaging over a wide range of frame rates and optical formats including Super 35mm / APS-H. The RED DSMC camera is supplied as standard with a PL mount, and may be configured with mounts and 19 mm rods to accommodate most cinematography lenses, matte boxes and follow focus systems. Adaptors for 15mm offset studio and 15mm lightweight rods are also available.
This recording technique permits RGB color processing choices to be deferred to post-production or to be adjusted in the field to help a director visualize alternative color treatments, without affecting the recorded RAW data’s image quality or dynamic range. The camera’s monitoring path converts RAW sensor data to a white balanced 12-bit depth 2048 x 1080 pixel RGB 4:4:4 video signal.
• Exporting to EXR file format will give you a multi-view EXR with both exposures (like a stereo EXR). NOTE: If you ignore the X-track data, you will have a standard exposure with up to 13.5 stops of dynamic range just as if you had not enabled HDRx. For this reason, we encourage the A-track exposure to be "normal" as it provides the most options. If you are tempted to shoot "over-under", you are then fully committed to using HDRx and your post-production options are reduced.
LINE LEVEL ANALOG INPUTS The recording level of a Line input is affected only by the signal provided by the field production sound mixer or other external line level source. The sound mixer operator should choose a mixer output level that aligns a reference tone signal to the 0dBu (-20dBFS) reference mark drawn on the camera’s Audio Level Meter, or if using 0VU as reference level, a mixer output level that aligns a reference tone signal to the 0VU (-16dBFS) reference mark.
HD-SDI A 720p or 1080p progressive scan output suitable for monitoring or recording to an external VTR or DDR device. May be configured for 10-bit LIN (VIDEO) or 10-bit LOG (FILM) encoded data. HDMI A 720p or 1080p progressive scan output suitable for monitoring via a PC monitor or most HDTV displays. Example of HDMI Monitor Output in MENUS mode.
REDMOTE® REDMOTE is a camera control unit for RED’s family of DSMC cameras that attaches to the rear of the camera Brain or rearmost expansion module. REDMOTE may also be detached from the camera or rearmost module and provide wireless remote control of the camera over proprietary REDlink™ protocol. Whether attached or operating via wireless, REDMOTE supports all controls necessary to operate the camera, including Record Start / Stop, Shutter Speed, White Balance, ISO and programmable User Keys.
Typical Magazine Folder and clip structure For additional information about digital magazines, refer to APPENDIX B: MANAGING DIGITAL MEDIA.
CLIP NAMING CONVENTIONS When you press RECORD, the camera automatically creates a unique name for the CLIP being recorded to the REDMAG 1.8” SSD media. The format of this name is: Camera Letter + Reel Number + Month + Day e.g. A001_C002_0502**.RDC Where: A = camera A, 001 = reel 001, C002 = clip 002, and 0502 = May 02, and the digits * * are two random characters generated by the camera to prevent any possibility of duplicate names being created.
MULTI CAMERA SHOOTS The scheme provides flexibility to uniquely identify Clips from different cameras on a multi-camera shoot. For example three cameras, slated as camera A, camera B, and camera C respectively, can generate these easily recognizable clips on their respective digital media Magazines. A001_C001_0502**.RDC B001_C001_0502**.RDC C001_C001_0502**.RDC 3D (STEREO) CAMERA SHOOTS The scheme also allows unique identification of Clips from left and right eye cameras on a stereo shoot.

GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE AND NAVIGATION RED LCD/TOUCHSCREEN LCD, BOMB EVF, EXTERNAL MONITORS The following is a general description of the structure of the camera’s Graphical User Interface (GUI) which overlays the video monitor signal on the Viewfinder output(s) of the camera.
• Frame Guide: Record or Projection area • Frame Rate: Current frame capture rate • Genlock: Indicates presence of valid Genlock signal / HD-SDI sync to genlock • HDR Mode: Displays HDRx mode status • Histogram: RGB Histogram. • ISO Rating: Camera sensitivity • LAN: Indicates communication via Ethernet connection • Lens Info: Lens information when using specific Canon or Cooke lenses.
The GUI is broken down into the following three main sections: the Upper Status Row, the Live Action Area, and the Lower Status Row. On VIEWFINDER output(s), all three sections are visible, on PREVIEW outputs only the Live Action Area and associated graphic overlays are visible. On PROGRAM outputs, none of the graphic overlays are visible, i.e. a PROGRAM output is defined to be a CLEAN FEED output.
LIVE ACTION AREA Contains the recorded image area plus Surround View™ look around area, plus overlays for Frame Guide, Safe Action / Safe Title and the current Clip Name and Timecode values. Each overlay may be color coded in one of 5 colors to maximize the contrast between the guide(s) and scene being captured.
ICON BEHAVIOR TC • TC Gray - No analog time code is currently detected • TC Red - Analog time code is being detected, but the use of it is not enabled • TC Green - Analog time code is being used to jam the time of day time code.
POWER STATUS If powering camera through DC power, the current voltage will be displayed. If using a REDBRICK or similar external battery to power the camera through DC IN, power status displays the current supply voltage available from the battery. Supply voltage decreases as battery is discharged, the displayed text is color coded as follows: • Green = 12.0 V and up • Yellow = 11.9 – 11.8 V • Red = 11.7 – 11.6 V NOTE: The camera will automatically power down if supply voltage drops to 11.5 Volts.
RAW CLIP METER The RAW Clip meter looks a traffic light style meter and indicates if either of the Red, Blue or Green channels of the RAW sensor data are clipping.

COMMUNICATION Communication Menu allows you to set a unique identification for the camera (or a group of cameras) when operating in command and control communications network. Parameters are NAME, GROUP, TARGET, set a SERIAL PROTOCOL, ENABLE DHCP, C2C or EXT, IP ADDRESS, NETMASK and GATEWAY. Using the serial port or a direct Ethernet interconnect, two cameras, or one camera and one external device can be connected.
This structure allows for a lot of flexibility. For example on a multi-rig 3D shoot the user can either send commands to an individual camera (e.g. Set CAM_A_L to 1/48th exposure), to a group of cameras (e.g. Set "3DRIG_A" to 48 FPS), or to all cameras (e.g. Start Recording on all cameras). It is important to note that with the exception of the NONE setting, all command filtering is happening on the receiver side of the communication link.
NETWORK If the Gigabit Ethernet port is used, additional settings are required. Each camera or device requires a unique IP ADDRESS. For simple camera-to-camera communication via Ethernet, both cameras need to be in the same sub-net. Use the same sub-NETMASK and GATEWAY addresses and the first three groups of the IP address need to be the same. In the example below, two cameras two cameras are assigned to the group “3D RIG.” Note the IP Addresses.
REDMOTE This function is used to pair the camera to a REDMOTE for wireless operation. MANUAL CHANNEL SELECT The Manual Channel Select option allows the user to change the communication channel for the REDLink wireless connection in the event of interference from other wireless devices.

APPENDIX D: AUDIO SUBSYSTEM INFORMATION AUDIO FORMAT The audio format is always either 2 or 4 channels of 24-bit audio data recorded at 48kHz. The audio data is embedded in the R3D file and can be exported from REDCINE-X into separate audio files. CHANNEL SETUP SOURCE SELECTION Audio is always recoded at channel pairs.
CHANNEL MODES The analog sources can be set to different modes to match the incoming audio signals. On the Camera Inputs the following modes are available: BALANCED MICROPHONE Balanced microphone input. Usually used with microphones that provide XLR connectors and have an internal battery. UNBALANCED MICROPHONE Unbalanced microphone input with 3.3V bias. This type of input is usually provided by unpowered microphones with 3.5 mm TRS plug.
LIMITER A limiter can be added to the analog input signal chain that adds about 12dB dynamic headroom to avoid clipping on signal spikes. While it is best practice to use an external audio mixer to control the signal strength the limiter can be used in more dynamic environments where an external mixer is not practical to reduce the risk of clipped audio samples. Note: The limiter is not available on non-upgraded Epic-M’s and early Epic-X.
PEAK METER The peak meters always show the incoming audio signal, no matter if the channel is recorded or not as long as a source is selected. Actively recorded channels are drawn with a lighter outline and the channel indicator left of the peak meter will be green. The peak meters are updated 12 times per second with the maximum signal from the last 1/12 of a second period. In case the input signal exceeds 19dBu the whole bar will be filled with red. The total range of the peak meter is -36 dB to 20dB.
DATA PATH The following diagram outlines the data flow in Preview. The only difference in playback is that the data comes from the R3D file and the input channel selection is disabled. HD-SDI/HDMI EMBEDDED AUDIO HDMI/HD-SDI audio output is limited to the first two channels and the channels will be the same between HDMI and HD-SDI. 955-0002_v3.3, Rev-B COPYRIGHT © 2012 RED.cm, Inc.
INPUT CONTROL The analog gain for the microphone input can be controlled between 15-57 dB. The line input on the Pro I/O the input gain is fixed. OUTPUT CONTROL The headphone output volume can be set individually for each channel. (Or can be linked together as the input gain controls) Additionally, the output of each channel may be muted individually. The signal strength of the line out cannot be controlled and is fixed at -15 dB gain. Line input will pass without gain through the system.
DIGITAL MIXER The digital mixer allows routing each of the 4 channels either to the left, middle or right independently for either the stereo headphone or Pro I/O outputs. Additionally each channel can be enabled/disabled independently in the output mix. As this is a digital mixer each output is normalized to not exceed the output signal range.

APPENDIX G: 3D SETUP / OPERATION OVERVIEW The following information outlines basic procedures to connect two RED DSMC cameras together in a Master / Slave configuration for 3D operation, operation of cameras in Master / Slave configuration and clip naming conventions for clips recorded on those cameras. The MASTER camera will control only the METADATA parameters of both cameras. On the SLAVE camera, any other setting outside of these will need to be manually changed before recording.
SLAVE CAMERA Perform the following steps on the Slave camera: 1. Go to SECONDARY MENUS > SETTINGS > SETUP > COMMUNICATION > NAME and give the camera a unique NAME (CAM B, RIGHT, etc…). 2. Under TARGET select NONE. 3. Give the Slave camera a unique IP address different from the Master. CLIP NAMING CONVENTIONS REEL NO. / SLATE (CAMERA ID) / CAMERA POSITION Before shooting in Master / Slave or Master / Master configuration for a Stereo / 3D production, make sure the Camera Slate (i.e. Reel No.
For example, if Master is set to LEFT and Slave is set to RIGHT and both Cam IDs are set to S, the first clip recorded by this stereo camera configuration will be: - Master: S001_L001_0503B6.R3D - Slave: S001_R001_0503R7.R3D Where 0503 represents 05 March, B6 and R7 are examples of camera generated wildcard characters.
• Green BNC connector is for Tri-Level Sync (Genlock) input. • White BNC connector is a dual-purpose (Shutter SYNC input or GPI) input. 4. Go to SETTINGS > SETUP > GPIO/SYNC > SYNC MODE and select GENLOCK. 5. Verify the camera’s project frame rate matches the Genlock and Timecode generator(s) framerate(s). 6. When properly connected and synchronized, TC, GEN and SYNC will illuminate Green on the UI.
APPENDIX H: EXPOSURE – USING FALSE COLOR AND ISO NOTE: The following section uses a RED ONE camera display to illustrate exposure tools; however, the same principles apply to RED DSMC camera systems. RED DSMC cameras provide several advanced exposure indication tools. In the following examples, we will show how these tools respond to a reference scene that is under-exposed, over-exposed and then correctly exposed.
ISO 800 - False Color: Exposure Select False Color – Exposure: note the √ E icon in the GUI when active. This mode allows us to visualize where in the image underexposure is taking place. These areas are indicated in purple. It is clear those areas are under the matchbox and coin, and between the bottle and cigar holder. ISO 800 - False Color: Video 224 COPYRIGHT © 2012 RED.com, Inc. 955-0002_v3.
Select False Color – Video: note the √ V icon in the GUI when active. This mode allows us to check the RGB video levels of the scene. As the peak white chips on the test chart are showing up in green and the underexpose areas are showing up in dark blue, this says the monitor path video levels are only ranging between 44 IRE and 1 IRE. Because the scene is under exposed, when the recorded .
ISO 800 - False Color: Exposure Select False Color – Exposure: note the √ E icon in the GUI when active. This mode allows us to visualize where in the image over exposure is taking place. These areas are indicated in red. It is clear those areas are on the highlight on coin, and at the top right edge of the color chip test chart. 226 COPYRIGHT © 2012 RED.com, Inc. 955-0002_v3.
ISO 800 - False Color: Video Select False Color – Video: note the √ V icon in the GUI when active. This mode allows us to check the RGB video levels of the scene. As all the white chips on the test chart are Yellow, this suggests that a significant portion of the monitor path video is at the maximum legal 100 IRE value. Because the scene is over exposed, when the recorded .
APPROPRIATE EXPOSURE ISO 800 - Monitor Output In this image, the camera is appropriately exposed for this scene. The monitor is neither very dark nor very bright and the histogram is spread evenly given that there are bright highlights on the coin we wish not to blow out. Note that there is no red bar on either the left or the right edges of the histogram and the vertical color stack to the right of the histogram is at yellow.
ISO 800 - False Color: Exposure Select False Color – Exposure: note the √ E icon in the GUI when active. This mode allows us to visualize where there is under exposure (purple) or over exposure (red) in the image. In this case, there is a very small area of purple under the cracker box, and just a suggestion of red on the highlight on the coin, which suggested that the sensor is appropriately exposed for this scene. 955-0002_v3.3, Rev-B COPYRIGHT © 2012 RED.cm, Inc.
ISO 800 - False Color: Video Select False Color – Video: note the √ V icon in the GUI when active. This mode allows us to check the RGB video levels of the scene. The two green squares in the upper right corner of the color chart and green in the background indicate that the scene’s mid grey and skin tone elements, plus peak white and blacks are all at appropriate levels.
ADJUSTING THE ISO RATING In the following two examples, the image exposed at ISO 800 rating have had the ISO rating adjusted first to ISO 6400 and then to ISO 100. NOTE: Although the image and Histogram both adjust to changes in the ISO rating, the sensor RAW meters do not change – they always indicate what is happening at the sensor level and hence where the image is truly in noise or at clipping. ISO 6400 - No Exposure Adjustment 955-0002_v3.3, Rev-B COPYRIGHT © 2012 RED.cm, Inc.
ISO 100 - No Exposure Adjustment In these extreme examples, it is clear that the RGB domain images are respectively very bright and very dark. The histogram data reflects that, however you can also see that the sensor RAW meters are unchanged. The exposure at the sensor at this point in time is the same. If you choose to close the iris to reduce the brightness of the first image you will be reducing exposure at the sensor – this biases exposure in favor of protecting the scene highlight.
APPENDIX I: POST-PRODUCTION RED workflow is quite easy to understand, especially if you have experience with photographic RAW image processing, or shoot 16mm or 35mm film followed by a telecine transfer to video for non-linear video editing and on-line conform. The RAW data captured by RED cameras has wide dynamic range and color space, so you can freely change the white balance, adjust exposure and alter highlight and shadow tonality in post-production.
REDCINE-X® PRO REDCINE-X PRO is available for Intel based Mac OSX and Windows XP platforms. The application performing white balance and one light color correction, image pan/scan, crop and scaling operations. The application can export either a single clip, or a sequence of clips, as 4K or 2K resolution 10-bit DPX or 16-bit TIFF files. REDCINE-X PRO can also render clips into standalone QuickTime movies using a variety of video codecs including H.
