Montaje y potenciación de una cámara roja en Steadicam Flyer
Tiene 16 años. Es posible que el equipo y los precios hayan cambiado desde entonces.
Lo que encontró el hilo
- La cámara roja requiere 12 voltios y dibuja aproximadamente 80 vatios, por lo que es factible accionar desde un sistema de batería a bordo de Flyer aunque el tiempo de funcionamiento es limitado dependiendo del tipo de batería y la capacidad.
- Red Brick batteries mounted on the sled plate provide a more practical power solution than relying solely on Flyer onboard batteries, which may only provide 30 minutes of runtime per battery when powering the camera.
- A custom power cable with a 3-pin XLR Lemo connector can connect Flyer power output to the Red camera, though standard Flyer power cables (4-pin XLR) may also work directly.
- Video output from the Red requires an HDSDI BNC connector from the camera's video breakout box, then routed through a downconverter like the Decimator to display on an onboard monitor.
- Achieving the weight capacity on a standard Flyer requires stripping the Red to essentials: body, prime lens, video breakout device, downconverter, clip-on matte box, and CF card recording, totaling approximately 17-19 pounds.
- Operating significantly over the official weight limit of 15 pounds for a Flyer or 19 pounds for a Flyer LE increases risk of gimbal strain and potential system damage over time.
- Powering multiple accessories like downconverters and follow focus systems from a single Flyer power output creates demand for additional power distribution solutions or custom cables.
- Wireless lens control systems are lighter alternatives to mechanical focus follow systems when mounting a Red on a Flyer.
Depende de
- Runtime estimates for onboard batteries are anecdotal and vary based on specific battery models and what other equipment draws power.
- Weight tolerance discussions reflect operator experience and preference rather than manufacturer specifications; experiences with exceeding limits without immediate failure do not guarantee safety.
- Specific power connector configurations may differ between Flyer and Flyer LE models, requiring verification before attempting connections.
- The Red camera's heat vents are located on the bottom, which could create thermal considerations when mounting additional recording devices or storage directly to the rig.
- Recording solutions such as external raid drives require secure mounting and add weight, which may approach or exceed safe operating limits.
