We updated the the newest Red SDK in Nuke 8.0v6, so there shouldn't be any problems with reading newer camera files even if it is just for conversion. Also the newest Red SDK adds the ability for us to GPU debayer. We may or may not have time to get this into Nuke 9.0v1 but we will see. This should help with r3d speed in Nuke.
