50-150mm

[Frank Mirbach]

Hi guys,

has anyone recently got the 50-150mm Red lens ? I got one on backorder and was wondering when to expect delivery.

Noone ??

 

[Paul Hazlett]

there are a few of us that are waiting patiently for any sign of life from
the 50-150 factory.
Last I heard reliably was somewhere in the 200's by camera number.

You gotta be kidding ! 200´s !? My, how long is this going to be for me ?? I´m 2560 !! Arrgh ....

With having solid quantities of the 18-50 in inventory, we are really swinging resources to the 50-150. Just like I once said with EVFs, don't judge future fulfillment rate with where we were on fulfillment rate recently. We want to get these lenses in your hands so we are making a big push there, for sure.

Is there any info on front element size will a 4" Matte Box cover all the lenses from Red

I was told a few months

Its been a bit of a slog for sure, but you also have to remember, far fewer
folks ordered the 50-150 then the 18-50.

At least that is my hope.

Whenever someone asks about the 50-150 it makes me think Red has got an
old Craftsman locked in a basement somewhere in England churning them out by hand and everytime he finishes one he hands it up though a hole in the floor and starts on the next.

Of couse we could just pay about 5 times the price for other glass.

The way it goes with this lens, maybe it's not so far from the truth

While you're waiting... Here's a couple of frame grabs from the 150 at the two ends of a rack focus at 150.

Got one, but not really used it yet. The back focus was completely different to where we had the camera set for S4s so it went back in the box. Hope to test when we have time.

I'm sure you're breaking some hearts with that statement!

I use mine all the time -- there's nothing out there like it with a longer reach in a compact, portable size.
