RED To Feature MONSTRO 8K VV At Camerimage

RED Digital Cinema has announced that it will demonstrate the new MONSTRO 8K VV cinematic Full Frame sensor for WEAPON cameras at Camerimage later this month (11 – 18 November), in Bydgoszcz, Poland.

The MONSTRO 8K VV sensor is a step beyond the DRAGON 8K VV sensor with improvements in image quality including dynamic range and shadow detail. A WEAPON with MONSTRO 8K VV sensor offers Full Frame lens coverage, captures 8K full format motion at up to 60 fps, produces ultra-detailed 35.4 megapixel stills, and delivers fast data speeds, up to 300 MB/s.

Visitors to RED's stand will be able to see the company's DSMC2 cameras, including WEAPON 8K VV, WEAPON 8K S35 and EPIC-W 8K S35. RED cameras will also be on display at Leica, Cooke, Zeiss, Angeniuex, Hawk and Panavision stands.

An official sponsor of Camerimage, RED will host two seminars at the festival. On 13 November, cinematographers Christopher Probst, ASC and Markus Förderer, BVK will discuss 'The Future of Digital Formats'. From music videos to feature films and original TV series, Christopher and Markus will share their process for evaluating tools, and approach to choosing a camera and lenses.

The seminar will take place at 4.30pm in the Miejskie Centrum Kultury (MCK).

On 15 November, Light Iron Colorist Ian Vertovec and RED's Dan Duran will discuss RED's 'High Resolution Image Processing Pipeline'.
