Pulling the AB battery kills my Epic with 3.3.4. Furthermore, if I boot up with the Side Handle battery, putting on the AB 140 kills the camera. Not really that big a deal for me as I make it a practice to shut down before changing batteries, but I'm sure it could be a problem for some...

Just received an email announcing a free upgrade kit for the Side Handle. I've been in this crazy business for about forty years and during that time I've been a customer of a lot of great equipment companies, but I've never known one that does as much for it's customers as Red. I'm far from...

We just had an unannounced on-site service call from Anton Bauer. They checked our batteries, updated our chargers with the latest software, and gave me spare parts kit. All at no charge. Great company. Good shooting and best regards, Leo

Forgive me if I've missed it; is there an official or semi-official bug list for the Epic? I believe it would be very valuable for us in the field to know we're dealing with a known issue and what work-around is suggested or if we should simply not employ whatever feature is not working...

Excellent condition with caps and case.

There seems to be a very subtle, but noticeable difference between film and digital with locked-off still-life shots; film appears to me to have some "life" to it because each individual frame is not a perfect replica of the series, whereas all digital frames are exactly the same. Some of this...

I've got a shoot coming up that involves building a cage in a sports car and shooting hot laps on a track. Also a shooting from a camera car, but not as aggressively, but still more than normal highway speeds and G forces. I've shot Red from camera cars with no problem, but this will be more...

I'm having an occasional boot failure and a couple of times the camera has locked up with none of the buttons responding; had to pull the battery to power down and reboot. Not disastrous problems, no footage lost, but an inconvenience for sure, and the lockups are frighting. Also, I couldn't...

We having spots rejected at DG when we edit with FC 7.0.2 and QT above 7.5.5. We're on Leopard because Snow Leopard is breaking XSAN. We've had to drop back to FC 6.0.5. We don't know if the problem is FC 7 or QT above 7.5.5 (required to run FC 7) Anyone else having this problem? Solutions...

Is the new Beta Build 30.6.0 for non-MX Red One cameras? The description is not quite clear to me. Good shooting and best regards, Leo

We're bidding a job in the middle of nowhere, but closest major is Dallas. Looking for SteadiCam Op. Please email LTicheli (at) LTPro (dot) com Good shooting and best regards, Leo

Or do I? I loved Rec 709; the picture on my monitor looked just like what I saw with my eyes, correct in color and contrast, pleasing to me and clients. I'm not getting along with the new look at all, I really hate the RAW view and I find Red Color not much better. I'm strongly considering...
