As posted online by RED's Stuart English:

"Following up on the HD-SDI monitor output discussion:

EPIC brains allows the HD-SDI, Viewfinder and HDMI outputs to operate at independent resolutions, frame rates and gamma.

EPIC offers REDcolor or REDlog gamma at 720p, 1080p or 2K, with LOOK AROUND and graphics, or as a clean PROGRAM feed.

Details:

EPIC supports 1.5GHz HD-SDI (as used on RED ONE), plus 3GHz HD-SDI. The latter replaces "dual link" with a single BNC cable.

1.5GHz mode allows 1280 x 720p 4:2:2 at 50 or 60 fps, or 1920 x 1080p 4:2:2 at 24, 25 or 30 fps, both in record and playback.

3GHz mode adds 1920 x 1080p 4:4:4 (RGB) at 24, 25 or 30 fps and 1920 x 1080p 4:2:2 at 50 or 60 fps, both in record and playback.

EPIC can also support 2048 x 1080p 4:4:4 (RGB) at 24 or 25 fps, and 2048 x 1080p 4:2:2 at 50 or 60 fps, but as yet there may be little you can connect to."
