Companies to Demonstrate IRIDAS SpeedGrade NX Playing Back On-Set Stereo Dailies on JMR Bluestor DigiLab Systems

IRIDAS announced today new details of an innovative new on-set stereo daily system leveraging new features of SpeedGrade NX, and built on JMR Electronics powerful new Bluestor DigiLab platform. During Cine Gear  Expo 2011, IRIDAS, Video Equipment Rentals, and JMR Electronics will feature a new RAW playback and dailies processing system at Cine Gear Expo 2011 based on SpeedGrade NX, IRIDAS’ newest system for color and 3D depth grading, playback, conform, and review.

High resolution formats such as RED EPIC 5K, ARRI ALEXA RAW 3K, and Phantom 65 4K can be difficult to work with, especially in stereo 3D. The JMR Bluestor DigiLab leveraging SpeedGrade NX can easily handle the data rates and internal processing of these formats in real time stereo 3D, including RED Epic, an industry first. SpeedGrade NX de-Bayers the RAW digital negative files of every camera format natively, which allows high quality playback and stereo manipulations in real time.

V3 RAW files can be reviewed and graded instantly in real time and high fidelity. SpeedGrade NX handles ALEXA RAW playback in render quality previously requiring lengthy transcoding processes.

In addition to systems from RED and ARRI, IRIDAS continues to support virtually all other RAW-based cameras in the market, including cameras from Phantom, Weisscam, Silicon Imaging, Ikonoskop, Indiecam and others.

VER will make these systems available for rent as a companion to their extensive inventory of 3D camera rigs and cameras.
