FRAME by FRAME

News and commentary from Russell Johnson and Twenty One Productions.

It's 6 am and I just got back from my morning walk with my dog Milli, not short for Millicent but Millimeter...film...Ha...Ha...no?

Coincidentally in the six plus years of film making I have never shot one frame of film stock. Which brings me to this. The Red Digital Cinema Camera!

The snail like transition from film to digital is about to switch gears to a blistering pace because of this camera and it's technology. I know I am not breaking any news by writing about this but with this camera and this technology it pretty much assures that I will never shoot on film stock and by the looks of this neither will even the die hard digital haters out there. I am by no means a techophile but this camera and it's technology is quite simply amazing!

Warning high tech content ahead!
This is directly from the Red Digital Cinema Camera's website. Which if interested I highly suggest you visit. LOTS of cool stuff to see there.

MYSTERIUM™: DATA TO BURN

4520 X 2540 pixels... DATA TO BURN. At the heart of RED lives the 12-megapixel 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 option to 35mm film.

DIGITAL SUPER 35MM

Record 2540 progressive at up to 60 fps RAW. With 4520 X 2540 pixels, Mysterium™ puts pure digital Ultra-High Def in the palm of your hand.
Mysterium™ with RED ONE™ also supports on chip down-sampling all the way down to 1080p and 720p.
Field and selective focus as found in film cameras. Mysterium™ boasts a greater than 66db Signal to Noise Ratio thanks to its large 29 sq. micron pixels. And 12,065,000 pixels deliver resolution that can only be called Ultra High Definition.
