RED DSMC OPERATION GUIDE: EPIC/SCARLET

ADVANCED MULTI-SHOT MODE

In this mode, the camera is continuously recording, but is not saving frames. This eliminates the delay you get

in Basic Multi-Shot mode. Since the camera is continuously recording, the camera requires the same amount

of power it does during Continuous Record (as opposed to Preview mode). Unlike Basic mode, all frames are

added to one (1) clip, instead of to separate clips.

To use Advanced Multi-Shot mode, follow the instructions below:

1. Press the PWR/REC key on the BRAIN to start a new clip. This initial press adds one (1) frame to the clip.

2. Press a Record key on the side SSD module, REDMOTE, or DSMC Side Handle to add frames to the clip:

‒ Press a Record key once to add a few frames to the clip. (The number of frames varies, and depends

on the buffer.)

‒ Press and hold a Record key to continuously add frames; release the Record key to stop adding frames.

3. Press the PWR/REC key on the BRAIN to end the clip.

NOTE: You cannot shut down the camera until you end the clip.

ENABLE MULTI-SHOT MODE

To enable Multi-Shot mode, follow the instructions below:

1. Set the camera to Stills mode.

2. Go to Menu > Settings > Recording > Mode.

3. Select Multi-Shot from the Mode drop-down menu.

4. Use the Limit Recording to fields to set the recording to end at a predefined frame limit (optional).

5. Close the menu.

6. For more information on using the different sub-modes, go to:

‒ “Basic Multi-Shot Mode” on page 100

‒ “Advanced Multi-Shot Mode” on page 101

MOTION + STILLS

NOTE: This mode is available in Motion mode, but is only recommended in Stills mode.

Motion + Stills mode is identical to Continuous Record, except that when you initiate recording by pressing

the PWR/REC key on the BRAIN, all other Record keys mark frames for the duration of the clip. (If you initiate

recording by pressing any other Record key, you can press any key mapped to “Record: Mark Frame” to mark

stills.)

To use Motion + Stills mode, follow the instructions below:

1. Set the camera to Stills mode.

2. Go to Menu > Settings > Recording > Mode.

3. Select Motion + Stills from the Mode drop-down menu.

4. Use the Limit Recording to fields to set the recording to end at a predefined frame limit (optional).

5. Close the menu.

6. Press the PWR/REC key on the BRAIN to start recording.

7. Press a Record key on the side SSD module, REDMOTE, or DSMC Side Handle to mark a frame.

8. Press the PWR/REC key on the BRAIN to stop recording.
