Version 2.0.2

THEORY OF OPERATION

The RED SCARLET-X digital cinema camera provides high performance digital imaging over a wide range

of frame rates and optical formats including Super 35mm, 35mm and Super 16mm. The camera is

available with a Ti 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.

In addition to compatibility with existing PL mount cinematography lenses, a select range of S35mm

(APS-H) PL mount prime and zoom lenses are available from RED.

Other lens mounts, including Canon EOS are available, permitting the use of Canon photographic lenses.

Lens mounts can report lens iris, focus and zoom data when mated to an appropriate lens. In addition, the

iris and focus settings for select Canon lenses may be driven from the camera. Lenses with small image

circles may have restricted sensor coverage at wide angle.

Lens mounts may be exchanged in the field, however it is highly recommended that this be performed in a

dust-free environment, as the optical path will be exposed to the elements during this process.

A B4 mount to PL mount adaptor is also available to permit use of 2/3” HD lenses on the RED SCARLET-

X camera. The optical coverage it provides is approximately equivalent to 16mm hence the maximum

recording resolution with a B4 lens is 2K RAW (2048 x 1152 pixel) progressive scan.

MYSTERIUM X® SENSOR

The MYSTERIUM X sensor has been specifically designed for use with RED SCARLET-X cameras, and

provides variable frame rate imaging over 0.5 to 60 fps at 2K, 0.5 to 48 fps at 3K, 0.5 to 30 fps at 4K, and

0.5 to 12 fps at 5K.

Native color balance for the MYSTERIUM X sensor is 5,000 degrees Kelvin, but it may be electronically

compensated for any color temperature in the range 1,700 to 10,000 degrees Kelvin. White balance

preset values include Tungsten (3200K) and Daylight (5600K) light sources; the camera may also calculate

a color neutralizing White Balance value on demand by imaging on a standard white or 18% grey card.

The MYSTERIUM X sensor includes high precision analog to digital conversion, capable of delivering up

to 13.5 stops of dynamic range with daylight light sources over a camera sensitivity range of 320-800 ISO.

IMAGE PROCESSING

The digital image received from the sensor is formatted as a pixel defect corrected (but in all other

aspects unprocessed) 12-bit, 14-bit or 16-bit per pixel RAW data frame. When recording, successive

images (FRAMES) received from the sensor are collected together into a CLIP.

Each RAW frame or sequence of RAW frames in a clip is compressed using proprietary wavelet based

REDCODE® RAW compression, then stored to digital media such as a REDMAG™ 1.8” SSD.

The RAW data recorded is independent of any RGB domain signal processing choices such as ISO, White

Balance or other RGB color space adjustments made by the camera operator. These parameters are

saved with the RAW data as reference METADATA; they are not burned into the recorded RAW data.

This recording technique permits RGB color processing choices to be deferred to post production and/or

to be adjusted in the field to visualize alternative color treatments, without affecting the recorded image.

Version 2.0.2

12 12

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. This signal may be modified using ISO, White Balance or other RGB color

space adjustments as desired by the operator, and is then scaled and gamma corrected to provide

VIEWFINDER, HD-SDI and HDMI monitor outputs at 10-bit depth in 4:2:2 Y,Cb,Cr, or at 8-bit depth in

4:4:4 RGB.

Frame guides and other camera data may be added as desired by the user to one or more of the outputs.

NOTE: If a specific set of RGB image processing values are desired to be repeatable on-set, a

.RMD “look” file may be created by supplied REDCINE-X® PRO application software. The camera

can generate preset files (.preset) which are more flexible as they can be image settings or other

settings. Go to SECONDARY MENUS > PRESETS for details.

HDRX™

HDRx is an option for extending dynamic range from +1 to +6 stops over the baseline Dynamic Range

offered by the camera. HDRx mode simultaneously shoots two images of identical resolution and frame

rate - a primary track (A-track) that is normally exposed, and a the secondary track (X-track) that has an

exposure value that reflects the additional stops of highlight protection desired.

EXAMPLE: If you select an HDR value of +2 and your primary exposure is 1/48th sec, the X-track

exposure will be 2 stops faster, 1/192 sec.

The ISO and Aperture remain the same for both exposures.

During acquisition and recording, the two tracks are "motion-conjoined", meaning there is no gap in time

between the two separate exposures. This is important to note because if they were two standard

alternating exposures, there would be a time gap between the two tracks that would show up as an

undesirable motion artifact. Both tracks (A & X) are stored in a single R3D® file. Since there are two

exposures, when in HDRx mode, the camera is recording double the amount of frames. For example, if

you are shooting 24fps, the camera is recording two 24fps tracks, which is the data rate equivalent of

48fps. However, after combining the two tracks in postproduction you see only one 24fps motion stream.

HDRx provides multiple options for exploitation in postproduction.

• Blend the two tracks in post tools like REDCINE-X, Storm or any other application that supports the

SDK to create Magic Motion™. This blending of the two tracks comes with a slider so you can decide

just how much of each track you want to use. A preview window shows you the combined result of

your selection, or you can view each track individually.

• Combine the two tracks using MNMB (More Normal Motion Blur). MNMB is designed to emulate the

motion of a traditional camera with full motion blur. This is a tool created by The Foundry that uses a

new motion estimation algorithm designed specifically for HDRx. The shorter exposure (sharper

image) is blended to match the motion blur of the normal exposure. Again, a preview window shows

the combined result of your selection, or you can view each track individually.

• Use the X-track data for motion tracking, then combine the X-track with the A-track as in #1 or #2

above… or just motion stabilize the A-track using the motion analysis data extracted from the X-track.

• Exporting to EXR file format will give you a multi-view EXR with both exposures (like a stereo EXR).

Version 2.0.2

NOTE: If you ignore the X-track completely, you will have a standard exposure with 13.5 stops of

native 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 postproduction options are reduced.

NOTE: When recording in HDRx mode the camera records twice as many frames, so the maximum

frame rate, minimum REDCODE ratio, and maximum record time on your media will be cut in half.

MAGIC MOTION™

Shooting at 24fps and with an 180 degree (1/48th) shutter on a film or digital camera may create an

optical illusion we are familiar with, however it is not really the way the eye sees motion. To understand

this, ask someone to stand in front of you and swing their arm over their head from one side to the other.

What you would observe in the recording is a constant motion blur until the arm stopped. What your eye

sees though is both motion blur AND a sharper reference to the arm and hand all along the motion path.

"Magic Motion" provides such a combination of motion blur (A-track) and a sharper reference (X-track),

with the bonus of extreme dynamic range not available with any other motion capture camera system.

AUDIO RECORDING

The RED SCARLET-X can record up to two discreet channels of microphone level uncompressed 24-bit,

48 KHz audio (four channels of microphone level or line level audio inputs when equipped with a PRO I/O

Module), that are synchronized with video and timecode, to REDMAG 1.8” SSD media.

Input signals are routed via a high quality pre-amplifier and optional soft clip limiter in order to achieve the

desired audio reference / recording level and to maximize dynamic range.

To assist with audio reference level setup, the camera provides a color-coded Audio meter in the

Graphical User Interface. Meter range is –36dBu to +20dBu (-56dBFS to 0dBFS) with audio input type

and audio input clipping indication.

Audio monitor output options include a 2-channel headphone output on the camera Brain and 2-channel

line level analog outputs from the optional PRO I/O Module, plus 2-channel and 4-channel 24-bit 48KHz

uncompressed digital audio embedded in the HD-SDI and HDMI outputs.

MICROPHONE LEVEL ANALOG INPUTS

The recording level of Microphone inputs are affected by the sensitivity of the microphone and the Gain

setting of the camera’s pre-amplifier. Available pre-amplifier range is +8dB to +62dB, with a default value

of +32dB. The camera operator should choose a Gain value that aligns the input signal to the 0dBu

reference line drawn through the camera’s peak meter (or +4dBu line if referencing to that level).

This setting provides up to 30dB of input signal headroom above reference 0dBu level before clipping

(26dB for +4dBu reference level) and maximizes the signal to noise ratio of the 24-bit digital recording.

Version 2.0.2

14 14

LINE LEVEL ANALOG INPUTS

The recording level of Line inputs are 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 (0.775 volts RMS / -20dBFS) reference mark drawn

through the camera’s Peak Meter, or if using +4dB as reference level, a mixer output level that aligns a

reference tone signal to the +4dBu (1.23 Volts RMS / -16dBFS) reference mark.

The 0dBu setting provides up to 24dB of input signal headroom above reference level before clipping

(20dB for +4dBu reference level) and the maximum signal to noise ratio for the 24-bit digital recording.

VIDEO MONITORING OUTPUTS

In its default configuration, the RED SCARLET-X camera can simultaneously support one VIEWFINDER

output (suitable for use by a BOMB EVF®, or RED LCD) plus one HD-SDI based PROGRAM output and

one HDMI based PREVIEW output. Each output can support a set of overlay graphics including camera

GUI, timecode, clip name and framing guides; the specific overlay graphics for each type of output is user

configurable.

The default VIEWFINDER output is the EVF / LCD connector located on the front face of the Side SSD

Module. If neither of these is connected, VIEWFINDER output will be automatically transferred to the

HDMI output, or it may be selected by the operator to appear on the HD-SDI output of the camera Brain.

BOMB EVF

A 1280 x 784 pixel resolution progressive scan color image equivalent to viewing a 17” reference monitor

from a distance of about 3ft (1m), with Surround View™ look around area, frame guides and safe action /

title, zebra and false color exposure overlays, operational status and setup menus.

RED LCD

An 800 x 480 resolution RGB 4:4:4 progressive scan touchscreen video display with Surround View™

look around area, frame guides and safe action / title, zebra and false color exposure overlays, operational

status and setup menus.

HD-SDI

A 720p or 1080p output suitable for monitoring or recording to an external VTR or DDR device. May be

configured for 10-bit Gamma or 10-bit LOG encoded video data. Three different viewing options are

available, Preview (menus), Guides (frame guides only) and Program (clean feed). Refer to SECONDARY

MENUS > SETTINGS MENU > AUDIO/VIDEO > MONITOR CONTROL for complete details.

When an HD-SDI monitor is connected along with an LCD or EVF, only the main screen menu items will

be displayed in Grayed-out text. The menu items will reflect any changes made to Frame Rate, ISO,

Shutter Speed, White Balance, Resolution, and REDcode settings, and will not display the same

information as the LCD / EVF while making adjustments. Example, when the secondary menus are

accessed using the touchscreen LCD, the HD-SDI output will not show the secondary menus, only the

main screen menus.

Version 2.0.2

HDMI

A 720p or 1080p PREVIEW output suitable for monitoring via a PC monitor or most HDTV displays.

When an HD-SDI or HDMI monitor is connected WITHOUT an LCD or EVF, and in PREVIEW mode, the

HD-SDI or HDMI monitor will display the menus as if it were the LCD or EVF as shown below, displaying

setting changes in real-rime.

Figure 2: Example of Video Monitor Output – WITHOUT LCD or EVF Connected

RED LCD / BOMB EVF®

The optional RED LCD and BOMB EVF are specialized video monitors that provide the user with a variety

of tools to assist framing, focus and exposure, including:

- Surround View™, which is an additional look around area, visible outside of the recorded image.

- Frame Guides, showing common film presentation and television aspects such as 2.40:1 and 16:9.

- Focus, aided by high display resolution, 1:1 Focus Check function and False Color overlay.

- Exposure, aided by dual Zebras, False Color overlay, RAW “Traffic Lights” and RGB histogram.

- System information including current frame rate, ISO rating, shutter speed, color temperature, record

resolution, record quality, clip name, timecode value and the remaining battery and media capacity.

For applications where use of an attached RED EVF or RED LCD is not desired – for example when

working on a crane – the VIEWFINDER output can be transferred to the HD-SDI or HDMI outputs,

supporting remote camera monitoring up to 200 ft away.

Version 2.0.2

REDMOTE®

REDmote is a proprietary camera control unit for RED SCARLET-X cameras that attaches to the rear of

the camera Brain or the back face of the rearmost expansion module. The REDmote may also be

detached from the camera and operate over a proprietary REDlink™ 2.4Ghz wireless connection.

Whether operating attached or via wireless, REDmote supports all basic controls necessary to operate the

camera, including Record Start / Stop, Shutter Speed, White Balance, ISO and programmable User Keys.

An integrated color LCD displays camera parameters, media and battery capacity and REDmote menus.

Figure 3: REDmote LCD display

REDmote includes a rechargeable Li-Ion battery, which automatically re-charges when attached to the

camera or rearmost module. It may also be re-charged by connecting to a USB 2.0 based power source

such as a laptop PC or cell phone charger. Under typical operating conditions, REDmote should operate

for up to 8 hours without requiring a re-charge and support a wireless communication range of

approximately 50 ft.

DIGITAL MAGAZINE (MEDIA)

REDCODE RAW compressed MOVIE clips and STILLS images, plus time code, multi-channel audio and

metadata may be recorded to REDMAG 1.8” SSD solid-state digital media of 64GB, 128GB or 256GB

capacity.

Each MOVIE clip is recorded with a unique name and with all the appropriate elements of the clip

including one or more REDCODE RAW.R3D files and associated metadata, placed in a clip folder with the

file extension .RDC. Refer to CLIP NAMING CONVENTIONS.

All Clips are placed in a master folder (i.e. root directory) for the Magazine with the file extension .RDM.

This folder contains all clips recorded on that digital magazine; therefore copying these clips from the

digital magazine to backup media may be performed by a single drag and drop operation.

Version 2.0.2

For additional information about digital magazines, refer to APPENDIX B: MANAGING DIGITAL MEDIA.

METADATA

RED SCARLET-X cameras record extensive Metadata, which is data that describes the precise

characteristics of the picture and sound signals in each frame of the recording. This includes camera

specific setup information, project and clip management information, Clip Name, Time Code, Date and

GMT, lens and shutter speed / angle parameters, audio settings and any video image processing

information.

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 the clip name is Camera Letter + Reel Number + Month +

Day + ** - where ** is a random two digit alphanumeric number used to prevent accidental duplication of

file names.

e.g. A001_C002_0502A6.RDC

Where: A = camera A, 001 = reel 001, C002 = clip 002, and 0502 = May 02, and the digits A 6 are the

random characters generated by the camera as described above. Other examples are shown below:

A001_C001_0502X3.RDC A001_C001_0502G6.RDC A001_C001_0502AB.RDC

Version 2.0.2

18 18

MULTI CAMERA SHOOTS

The naming scheme means that three cameras, slated as A, B, C, will generate easily recognizable clips:

A001_C001_0502**.RDC B001_C001_0502**.RDC C001_C001_0502**.RDC

3D FOOTAGE

Refer to APPENDIX F: 3D SETUP / OPERATION > CLIP NAMING CONVENTIONS.

SMPTE TIMECODE

Edge Code is a SMPTE timecode track that always starts at 1.00.00.00 on the first frame recorded to the

digital media. It is a sequential code that is continuous from frame to frame and also continuous from clip

to clip. Edge Code is equivalent to RUN RECORD commonly found on broadcast cameras.

Time Code is a SMPTE timecode track that synchronizes to the camera’s clock, or if operated in Jam

Sync mode, to an externally supplied SMPTE master timecode signal. It is a sequential code that is

continuous from frame to frame, but is discontinuous from clip to clip.

The timecode counter always updates at the same frame rate as the recording, irrespective of whether the

camera is operating in normal or Vari-Speed recording mode. This ensures that a valid SMPTE timecode

is created without count jumps that would affect clip playback during editing. If operating in Jam Sync

mode referenced to an external timecode source, the clip’s master time reference point is the first frame

of the recorded clip.

NOTE: When in Loop Record mode, Edge Code will also become discontinuous from clip to clip,

because frames copied into the cache memory are discarded. This may lead to editing difficulties

with postproduction applications that assume continuous timecode.

POWER CONSUMPTION

The camera draws approximately 60 watts when recording in 4K resolution, 24fps MOVIE mode. The

camera is cooled by convection from the camera body assisted by a fan contained in a sealed air duct.

Under typical operating conditions, a REDVOLT® XL 90Wh battery will run the camera and accessories

for about 90 minutes. A REDVOLT® 30Wh battery will run the camera and accessories for about 30

minutes.

accordingly. Higher ISO values lead to brighter images in the monitor path, and vice versa.

Range is ISO 250 – 12800

Default is ISO 800

-.- (F STOP)

Aperture controls the depth of field of the subject imaged by the camera, and in combination with the

shutter speed / angle setting controls the amount of light falling on the sensor. i.e. exposure. Increasing

the F stop to a higher number reduces exposure as well as increases the depth of field, decreasing the F

stop to a lower number increases the exposure and decreases the depth of field. You can chose either

1/3 or 1/4 stops.

RED SCARLET-X DSMC TI PL MOUNT INSTALLED

When a lens equipped with Cooke’s S4/i system is attached to the DSMC Ti PL Mount, the camera will

1/SEC (EXPOSURE)

BASIC SETTINGS

Adjusts the exposure of each frame captured by the MYSTERIUM X sensor. Shutter speed presets are

provided for all common speeds (and shutter angles) for 24 / 25 fps and 50 / 60 fps project frame rates.

Decreasing Shutter Speed shortens the amount of time over which light falls on the sensor, increasing

exposure and motion blur on any objects moving within the frame. Increasing Shutter Speed increases

the amount of time over which light falls on the sensor, decreasing exposure and motion blur on objects

moving within the frame.

Range is 1/24 th sec – 1/8000th sec - Slowest available speed is 1 second per frame / frame rate, so for

24 fps it is 1/24th sec.

Default is 1/48th Sec.

Version 2.0.2

ADVANCED SETTINGS

When selected, the advanced settings menu allows fine control over the Exposure value, and permits

entry in any of the three following common units – EXPOSURE (Shutter Speed), INTEGRATION TIME or

ABSOLUTE ANGLE (Shutter Angle).

EXPOSURE (SPEED)

Provides the ability to enter the Exposure value as a Shutter Speed (1/xx sec).

Range is 1/24th – 1/75301th Sec - Slowest available speed is 1/frame rate, so for 24 fps it is 1/24th Sec.

Default is 1/48th Sec.

Version 2.0.2

60 60

INTEGRATION TIME

Provides the ability to enter the Exposure value as a Shutter Integration Time (xx milliseconds).

Range is 0.125 to 41.708 mS (milliseconds)

Default is 20.833 MS

ABSOLUTE ANGLE

Provides the ability to enter the Exposure value as a Shutter Angle (xx Degrees).

Range is 1.000 to 360.000 Degrees

Default is 180.0 Degrees

As you adjust any of these three parameters, the camera will automatically calculate the equivalent value

in the other units, but as a quick reference here are some common Speeds and Angles.

Version 2.0.2

To Convert Shutter Speed to Angle Equivalent:

Equivalent Degrees = (Shutter Speed x Frame Rate x 360)

E.g. = (1/48 x 24 x 360) = (8640/48) = 180

SHUTTER DEGREES SHUTTER DEGREES

1/50 172.8 1/348 22.5

1/60 144 1/696 11

1/96 90 1/1000 8.6

Equivalent Shutter = 1 / (Frame Rate x 360 / Angle)

E.g. = 1/ (24 x 360/180) = 1/ (8640/180) = 1/48

DEGREES SHUTTER DEGREES SHUTTER

EXPOSURE

This will show areas of under exposure (Purple) or over exposure (Red) on top of a monochrome image.

The color is based on RAW data so over/under exposure refers to data actually close to clipping in the

sensor. When selected, the icon “E√” will be displayed in the Lower Status Group.

The EXPOSURE meter’s color bands provide the following information:

PURPLE Minimum Exposure

RED Maximum Exposure

Between minimum and maximum exposure values, the image is displayed as a monochrome image.

In the image, Purple areas represent sensor exposure levels that are likely to be noisy if gained up in

postproduction. Red areas represent sensor exposure levels that are at clipping.

NOTE: As EXPOSURE meters sensor RAW information, it is not affected by any RGB domain

adjustments - such as ISO rating, FLUT, White Balance, Video Gain or other LOOK information.

NOTE: Because the RAW data represents a wider color space than RGB, provided that the Red

(clip) color is not present in EXPOSURE view, even if Red (clip) color is present in VIDEO view, the

apparently clipped RGB highlights can be recovered in post production by adjustment of ISO,

FLUT or changing the KNEE and WHITE values of the CURVE box.

Version 2.0.2

82 82

FOCUS

This will emphasize edges in the image without changing brightness/image content so it is easier to

judge if the image is in focus. By adjusting your lens zoom and focus you can see which objects are

path (calibrated to the SMPTE test signal) and any outputs driven from that path - such as HD-SDI and

HDMI. When selected, the icon “V √” will be displayed in the Lower Status Group.

Purple represents Super-Black, Dark Blue represents Black, Teal represents 3-stops under 18% Gray,

Green represents 18% Gray, Pink represents Skin Tone, Straw represents White, and Yellow, Orange

and RED represent various degrees of signal clipping in RGB space.

By adjusting ISO, FLUT and Shadow while looking at VIDEO check, the operator can ensure that Black,

White and 18% Gray values conform to the desired levels on the HD-SDI and /or HDMI outputs.

The VIDEO bands provide the following information:

PURPLE Super Black (IRE 1-0)

BLUE Black (IRE 1-3)

TEAL Dark Gray (IRE 9-12)

GREEN Typical Level for 18% Gray Card (IRE 44-47)

PINK Typical level for Caucasian Skin (IRE 54-57)
