REDCODE
Select the target REDCODE compression ratio for your project.
If the camera is able to achieve the target compression ratio, the compression ratio displays in white. If the camera is
unable to achieve the target compression ratio, the compression ratio displays in yellow, and the camera uses the next
possible compression ratio.
The current compression ratio is automatically recalculated when changes are made to the project resolution, aspect
ratio, anamorphic setting, frame rate, HDRX
® mode, media, or the target REDCODE compression ratio.
The RECODE compression affects the overall quality of the footage. A lower compression (for example: 2:1) increases
the quality of the footage, while a higher compression (for example: 22:1) lowers the quality.
REDCODE range is 2:1 to 22:1. Default is 8:1.
For maximum available REDCODE values, see the DSMC Media Operation Guide at www.red.com/downloads .
