I'm selling my beautiful Cooke Varotal 20-100, in great condition. This lens has a classic, vintage quality to it, and works great on the digital sensors like Red. Compared to more modern lenses, it has a smoother, more "romantic" look which helps take the edge off digital. The Varotal was a...

Zeiss 8mm T2.1 for 16mm format. PL-mount. (Adapted from Arri B.) Covers 2K on RED cameras - it's a great wide angle for those 300fps shots. Also very handy for the Digital Bolex... or the Ikonoskop... or the Blackmagic Pocket Camera. 16mm is coming back in style! $1000 + shipping.

I'm looking for a beautiful Cooke 20-100mm lens. Preferably with 19mm support. Need metric focus markings. Would like to pay $5000.

SOLD! Selling the beautiful Zeiss ZF lenses, cine-mod'ed by Duclos. In very good condition, glass is immaculate. I also have the original boxes. Cine-Mod: They have focus gears, de-clicked iris, 80mm fronts and Arri front caps. They are in Nikon F-mount. (Will work on Canon via a simple...

I've been using 15mm LW with my Epic, and I love the small form factor. But I also want to add a 19mm arri-style bridge plate to my arsenal, e.g. for those situations when I want to put rented 19mm accs on there. I know the Element Technica is the "standard" for Red users... But let's take a...

Element Technica used to make a dovetail for the Cartoni Gamma head, but they don't anymore... If anyone has one laying around, I'd like to buy it. Please.

I'm looking for Ronford Baker sticks, medium duty with 100mm bowl. Either tall & short combo, or the 2 stage. Anybody got some laying around? I'll also consider other "cine-style" tripods with 100mm bowl.

Zeiss Distagon 8/2 for 16mm format, or Red One 2K. Bought this as a wide angle for those 120fps shots... Should also work well on the Scarlet cinema. (Or A-cam dII... or other 2/3" cams with PL mount) In very good condition, no blemishes on the glass, used only a couple of times. PL adapter...

Both of these seem like an excellent choice, and the price is about identical ($1200 base config) , so I'm trying to figure out which one I want. I haven't seen either IRL, so I'm basing this on spec sheets and jpegs. Would love to hear feedback from people who have actually touched them. I...

We´re shooting a feature in Northern Norway in February. It´s gonna be cold, likely -30 Celsius (-22 F) or worse. So I assume we´ll need some kind of cover for the camera. So far I´ve found the Camrade Snow Coat http://www.camrade.com/products-page/cameras/red/sc-red Does anyone have any...

The main drawback of the Zeiss ZF and CP primes, for me, has been that the 25mm f/2.8 is too slow. (And the 18mm f/3.5 is much too slow.) Now: We know that the Zeiss ZF primes and the PL Compact Primes share the same optical construction. Zeiss have recently re-released all the Nikon ZF...

I remember the first 100 cameras were recalled by RED, some time in 2007. The lucky first customers then got new cameras with upgraded PL mounts (and OLPF and probably some other stuff) - like the mounts we all have now. Does anyone have pics of the camera with the old PL mount? Strictly out of...
