Digital media such as REDMAG 1.8” SSDs are very robust, but should be treated with equal care as
exposed film or a videotape master. We recommend storing digital media that contains your footage in a
secure location and backing up the data to a digital archival media, such as data tape or hard disk drive.
RECORD INDICATOR
When recording, the RED SCARLET-X camera provides a variety of record indications (tallies):
- Timecode, normally displayed in white colored text, will be displayed in red colored text.
- A small Red dot will appear in the top right corner of the VIEWFINDER output(s).
- The REC LED on the right side of the camera Brain will illuminate Red.
- REDmote upper LED will illuminate Red, and the Timecode will turn Red.
- If using a BOMB-EVF, the LED on the front will illuminate Red if Tally is enabled
- SMPTE-RP188 timecode VITC-2 HANC metadata record flag will be enabled on HD-SDI outputs.
