This is exactly what I want to do, glad one of the Majors got a relatively early chance with such an awesome camera. Would love to be able to take a RED to Wimbledon or the US Open some time.

Nice video.
I was really hoping to finally get a 1080p60 download though. I am pretty sure that 99% of all computer monitors worldwide run at 60fps so it seems to make sense for internet distribution.

Sory but i have no permission to publish 1080p file from my customer now.

@ Chase M. Wrenn
The most difficult way to get authorization to place the camera. I didn't have the right to do what i wanted to. Lot of camera for TV and 3D TV, Photographers, press, it was difficult. I hope to do something better next year.

Fantastic. Love the orange colours and slow motion. But the cheering in the end didn't go well with the slow-mo audience I think. But it's stille amazing.

Understandable. I was looking at ways to get one into the US Open, but unless you have a Press Pass, it seems near impossible. And you have to be working for an actual "established" media company for them to grant you one. It seems to be the best option for the US Open, but I haven't checked the standards of the other tournaments, perhaps they are more lenient?

Orange is a Big Media partner for Roland Garros, they also Broadcast the 3D TV channel. It was ver y difficult for us Because we can't choose where to place the camera and sometimes photographers was not very fairplay with us. Even so it was an amazing experience and Epic was the only camera that can provide us 4k60p.
