The RED ONE camera is capable of shooting at resolutions up to 4520 horizontal pixels (4.5k) and recording directly to hard disk-based digital storage. This, combined with an industry-standard PL lens mount, allows cinematographers to shoot with any professional cinematic lens on the market today.
Beyond the obvious advantage of cost savings with the elimination of film and processing, both consumable products, it is the benefit of being able to watch dailies immediately, in real time, that make shooting digital such a superior experience.
Flexibility is the key to the RED ONE™ concept... Shoot lightweight ENG style (only 10 lbs., in rugged aluminum alloy) or load it up to shoot a feature film. Configure for tripod, crane or long lens applications.
The onboard RED LCD or external high-resolution RED EVF come equipped with advanced tools for framing, exposure and focus. Go super light with the REDGATE LIGHTWEIGHT KIT, and shoot handheld in comfort.
With the ability to swap lens mounts between the Industry standard PL mount and Nikon F mount, DOP's have the option of using ultra lightweight Nikon SLR Lenses. As Nikon lenses are designed to for Full Frame 35mm, they will more than cover the s35mm RED ONE frame.
4520 X 2540 pixels… DATA TO BURN. At the heart of RED lives the 12-megapixel MX and Mysterium™ CMOS sensor, Super 35mm sized, with unparalleled fidelity and flexibility. It combines low noise with superior charge capacity for dynamic range and color fidelity that allows you to finally have a no excuse digital imaging alternative to shooting 35mm film.
The REDFLASH (CF) MODULE allows the ability of recording to industry standard CF cards. Offering the equivalent of a 400ft film reel per 8GB card this format offers a rugged shockproof solution.
The RED-DRIVE™ is the workhorse of RED ONE™ digital media choices. It is an outboard media format that can be mounted in the RED RAIL CRADLE on the camera body or RAIL system. It interfaces with the camera via the Drive Connector LEMO. The 320GB RED-DRIVE™ is made up of two 2.5" 160GB laptop hard drives arranged in a hardware-based RAID 0. The RED-DRIVE™ is capable of recording between two and three hours of 4K REDCODE™ RAW footage.
