MOTION MOUNT Operation

This section includes:

The DSMC® RED MOTION MOUNT® delivers variable ND and shutter options based on the selected shutter type. The following shutter types are available in Menu > Settings > SetupLens > Motion Mount.

  • ND Only: Disables Soft and Square shutters. The MOTION MOUNT functions only as an ND filter. For more information, go to Neutral Density (ND).
  • Soft: Enables the Soft shutter, softening blur and reduction of temporal aliasing. The MOTION MOUNT continues to function as an ND filter. For more information, go to Soft Shutter.
  • Square: Enables the Square shutter, ensuring consistent exposure and smooth motion. The MOTION MOUNT continues to function as an ND filter. For more information, go to Square Shutter.

The maximum shutter angle is restricted on the “ND Only” shutter type when ND is below 0.60 (2 stops). If the shutter angle that you want is not available with the selected frame rate, increase the ND value to 0.60 (2 stops) or more and try again.

NOTE: The ND setting cannot be changed while recording.

NOTE: These instructions are specific to camera firmware version v5.2.28.
