Monitor signal loss when using AJA10MD3 converter with Red Epic camera
12 years old. Gear and prices may have changed since.
What the thread found
- The AJA10MD3 converter worked reliably with an Alexa camera but caused occasional monitor picture loss when used with a Red Epic camera
- The Decimator 2 converter has been used without issues on Red Epic cameras
- Monitor signal loss occurred during high-volume shooting sessions outdoors with the Epic
Depends on
- The issue was only tested once on the specific Red Epic unit in question
- The underlying cause was not definitively identified—it could be a camera-specific problem, a cable issue, or a converter incompatibility
- The Decimator 2 alternative was not directly compared on the same Red Epic setup
