region depends on the monitor screen.
The camera automatically exits magnify mode when you start recording. When using a touchscreen, you can

also perform this function by pinching your fingers together and apart.

NOTE:

HDR mode, frame rate, and resolution cannot be modified when in Magnify mode.

RAW

Displays images unaffected by any LOOK settings (including ISO, FLUT, color space, and gamma). When en-

abled, the word RAW displays in the Histogram in the Lower Status Bar.
The RAW image parameters are:

Color Space

: REDcolor2

Gamma Space

: REDlogFilm

White Balance

: 5600K

ISO

: 800 ISO

Tint

: 0 Tint

NOTE:

When enabled, RAW will affect video that’s recorded through HDMI or HD-SDI out to an external recorder.

Otherwise, the RAW image parameters DO NOT affect the image metadata; the parameters only define the

output on the monitor.

ZEBRA

Use zebra mode to enable and adjust the upper and lower values for two independent zebra indicators. One

zebra may be used for highlight exposure, and the other for mid-tones or shadows. Zebras are visible when in

1:1 zoom. By default, the zebra indicators are disabled.
As with other IRE-based modes, zebra mode is only applicable for the current ISO and Look settings (such as

with HD-SDI output), and not for the raw image data. If anything is changed in post-production, the indicators

will not be representative of the final output tones. For more information about zebra indicators, check out

the

Exposure with RED Cameras: False Color & Zebra Tools

article available at

www.red.com/learn/red-101/

exposure-false-color-zebra-tools

is IRE 98–100.

‒

Zebra 2

range is IRE 41–48.
