HDRx_fxphd.mov

Every camera – film or digital – has limits of exposure latitude. With the EPIC those limits just got pushed…a lot. Below is a single take shot from a car mount on a Duclos 11-16mm lens at 5K of a car moving from an extremely dark tunnel to a full daylight blue sky shot. The dynamic range required to achieve this shot as one pass in camera is thanks to the new proprietary HDRx from RED Digital Cinema company.

What is so remarkable about this shot is how effortless it looks. And how natural. Yet we all know from personal experience how much we ourselves would need a moment to adjust to a harsh change in light such as this – if we were simply in the real car, let alone filming it.
