Tom Evans December 10, 2017 Share December 10, 2017 One of the most frequent questions I get in pre production meetings is what camera I prefer them to shoot with and the choice is often between a Red and Alexa package. What do you prefer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orash Rahnema December 10, 2017 Share December 10, 2017 Between the two i prefere Alexa, i like better the color rendition and the general feeling, plus is much more forgiving (to my eyes) to the mistakes made in set. Said that since i'm working with the new ipp2 red pipeline i have to say things are much better 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicolas Hanson December 10, 2017 Share December 10, 2017 Can DR be set to Ipp2 like a color spavece or does this require any processing prior to the conform in a grading app? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orash Rahnema December 10, 2017 Share December 10, 2017 in DR you have to set the raw debayer to RedWideGammut as color science and LogG10 as gamma curve, then use one of the red lut downloadable from here: https://www.red.com/downloads/58de98eff77f300ebe00053f 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Gilling December 10, 2017 Share December 10, 2017 I'll take an HD ProRes file from the first ALEXA body over anything out of a RED. Not even a question. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikola Stefanovic December 12, 2017 Share December 12, 2017 If you want to suffer in the grading, ask for Red. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nikola Stefanovic December 15, 2017 Share December 15, 2017 Lets say like this: with good cinematographer there is no big difference. But if cinematography is not that great, its much easier to deal with images from Alexa then from Red. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Harris March 24, 2018 Share March 24, 2018 I recently finished a project using IPP2 workflow and am really pleased with the results. Much more like dealing with Alexa footage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anton Meleshkevich April 16, 2018 Share April 16, 2018 I prefer Alexa. RED's camera raw settings become more and more complicated. It is harder to keep everything standardized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dermot.shane April 16, 2018 Share April 16, 2018 don't really care, in good hands they both (and the f55 as well) create awesome images i use ACEScct always, to me the IPP2 thing seems like a load of marketing smoke and mirrors.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
