    Jim Mentoned it a year or so ago, the only 18mm cinema prime that works is the Cooke Pancro T2.8.
    The good news of course is 5k on Draggon wll be fine.

    The 18mm Zeiss Superspeed also covers full 5K.

    Can't see any vignetting on my 18mm RPP... Are you sure it's not your mattebox?

    Yes,without matte box,it's light but it's there,in the extreme corners.
    The Chrosziel 456 Academy 3 stage cover the 18mm RPP and 5K just fine.

    I have RED PRO Prime 18mm (RM180009) and no vignetting on Red Epic 5k FF, none at close focus, none at far focus. (I saw this post and had to run down, attach lens and carefully examin - so I am sure)

    I LOVE the RED Primes by the way, so crystal sharp, neutral in color, greatest value for money!
