RED FOCUS

[Jonathan Stevenson]

Funny... I first saw this thread just after reading that my NULL Target is about to ship.

Someone say eBay?

[Steve Gibby]

Good timing Jeff :)

You might want to cancel that sale...maybe plead hardship for a refund

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

lol.. the RED FOCUS is not a NULL... or anything like it. The Null is just a wide angle lens. the NULL you need a light source and alot of room and a target that you need to setup ( and light )

the RED FOCUS has an internal target, needs no room, can be set in the dark on a camera truck, and is a bit less subjective.

2 very different products , And you guys havn't even heard the most exciting thing about it yet :)

...uh...it will thread 35mm film for 5k telecine???


... uh...it breaks open to be a macro extension tube adaptor???


...a doubler?


I will stop now.

[Jeff Kilgroe]

Yeah, but the NULL can be attached to the NULL TARGET, which makes it an enclosed system that could be used in a closet with no lights.

Anyway, I can't wait to know what this exiting thing is!

With the Denz tool, Optimator, NULL + Target and now the RED FOCUS, this niche of the market has become quite crowded.

...So what's this most exciting thing? Or do we have to wait until next week? :)

I'm with Jeff on this, and don't forget Uniq optics also makes a couple.

Too many options in the market, price should come down with this much competition.

[Joe Kleber]

I kinda don't get the qualification for the reduced price....

If you own a PL mount camera made by RED, you can make use of this device. Right? Why RPP set owners and not R1 owners?

Self-Powered illuminated PL Mount Diascope for setting PL Backfocus/ Flange distance on the RED ONE / EPIC / SCARLET cameras ...

will it work on 2/3 cinema or are you making a smaller RED Focus for 2/3 cinema?

That is a much better comparison.

Here is the Target...
