Compact, fast, and full-frame—the black V-RAPTOR 8K VV Camera is an impressive introduction to RED DIGITAL CINEMA's new DSMC3 platform. Sized only slightly larger than the KOMODO but boasting a new sensor, the V-RAPTOR offers multi-format capture in 8K VV, 6K Super35, 4K, 3K Super16, and anamorphic options.

The V-RAPTOR's RF lens mount can be used with numerous lens adapters, and it has a locking ring that provides additional security for use with heavier lenses and steady, wide-open capture.

What is the video size per minute (for example at ...

What is the video size per minute (for example at 8k 24 and 8k 120)? How fast do those 660 GB cards fill up?
Asked by: Jack
At this moment RED does not have a Komodo storage calculator. However you can use this calculator to check Komodo storage times. Just select RED RANGER using the sensor in 2K https://www.red.com/recording-time At 2K full frame 120p a 512GB card would store 107min at 5:1 which is similar to Komodo in REDCODE RAW HQ mode. General Storage specs - HQ - High data rate - Up to ~ 280 MB/s (~30 minutes recording time)* MQ - Medium data rate (default) - ~175 MB/s (~48 minutes recording time)* LQ - Lowest data rate - ~110 MB/s (~1 hour and 17 minutes recording time)* * Data rate assumes camera settings at 6K 17:9, 23.98 FPS. Recording time assumes a 512 GB CFast card. Your actual data rate will depend on complexity of the shooting scene and capture settings. Data rates subject to change with future updates.

Do Canon RF lenses (and any others that are adapted onto this camera) cover the entire frame or is part of it cropped?
Asked by: Jack
Slight vignetting can appear when capturing with current RF lenses in full-frame 8K on the RED DIGITAL CINEMA V-RAPTOR 8K VV + 6K S35 Dual-Format DSMC3 Camera (Canon RF, Black). A handy tool to view what lenses full-frame 8K on the vista vision sensor is linked below. https://bit.ly/3MJUTQW

As of January 2022 only the RED CFExpress card is ...

As of January 2022 only the RED CFExpress card is "approved". Does this mean that if I put in another card the camera won't accept it? Or does it just mean that RED hasn't approved it to be fast enough to capture 8K120 Raw? Two very different things and just wondering if anyone has tried any other media. Thanks!
Asked by: Taz
The RED PRO CFexpress Type B cards are RED approved, meaning they have been tested and approved by RED. Third-party media cards are compatible with the camera system but are not officially approved by RED. As long as the read and write speeds of the third party media meet or exceed those of the RED PRO CFexpress Type B cards, there should be no issue using third party media cards. Just note that damage and warranty will not be covered by RED.

which is better REDCODE HQ or REDCODE RAW?

which is better REDCODE HQ or REDCODE RAW?
Asked by: ali
The differences in REDCODE HQ and REDCODE RAW have more to do with the software you use to work with these during your post workflow. We're assuming your are referring to REDCODE RAW HQ, which does result in a larger file and carries additional data and therefore greater image signal information than REDCODE RAW.
