REDCODE
OPTIONS
The tables in this appendix show the maximum available REDCODE
®
compression ratio for RED
®
cameras at various
common formats.
The tables do not show the absolute maximum recording frame rate for each REDCODE value.
These tables serve as a guideline. The actual available frame rate and REDCODE may be affected by several factors,
including (but not limited to) project time base, Lookaround, SSD type, and simultaneous record to third-party codecs.
The number in each body cell refers to the number to the left of the colon in the REDCODE compression ratio (the “x”
of “x:1”).
To make it easier to compare cameras and SSD performance, each table goes up to 120 fps, even if the format does
not support recording at that frame rate.
NOTE: The REDCODE values in this appendix do not apply when Sensor Sync Mode (Menu > Settings > Setup >
GPIO/Sync) is set to MoCo. When using MoCo, you must set the frame rate to be at least two times (2x) the fastest
trigger rate used. A high frame rate usually increases the compression, but when you are using MoCo, REDCODE is
calculated based on fps/2. Therefore, if you are in MoCo mode, and you set the frame rate to 100.83 fps, the
maximum REDCODE is calculated based on a frame rate of 50.415 fps.
NOTE: RED does not publish the REDCODE and frame rate pairings for the REDMAG™ 1.8" SSD 64GB and REDMAG
1.8" SSD 256GB.
