Hi All, What's peoples experiences with the Epic and which IR ND is best. I've shot a heap on the Red One-MX but not so much on the Epic. I'm wondering is a standard IRND filter from Schneider at 1.2, 1.5, 1.8 and 2.1 sufficient to cut the IR light or is it recommended to get a Hot Mirror and...

Hi All, I'm just wondering if anyone is using this combination, I understand that everything is built to a standard but just wanted to check. I plan to combine the Wooden Camera Epic Riser and LW 15mm rod Bracket with some shorter Element Technica 15mm rods. As the ET rods are tapered at both...

Hi All, I'm just wondering about the Red Focus and exactly how good or useful it is? From reading the instruction manual it's my understanding that it projects an image of a siemens star onto the sensor and you adjust back focus from there. I understand that it is quite different to adjusting...

Hi All, Would appreciate some input on this. I'm putting the accessories for my epic-x kit together and will be using predominantly Wooden Camera parts. I plan to set the epic up to be able to run either in 15mm Light Weight mode and either 15mm OR 19mm studio mode. I'm thinking either the...

Hi All, I'm just wondering if anyone can tell me what the coverage of the Arri Ultra Primes are on Epic's 5K sensor? Specifically the 16,24,32,50 & 85mm? Thanks in advance :-)

Hi All, I'm thinking of combing the Swittronix GP-S-EPIC10 Battery Plate V Mount with a set of Globalmediapro Li160S-R Lith-ion Batt 160WH for Epic. Both are said to pass through the battery info to the Epic's for display on either the Bomb EVF or Touchscreen. But I'm just wondering if anyone...

Merry Xmas All, I'm putting together an Epic-X kit and am just wondering if people had any suggestions for some cable spares and what not. My kit will consist of 1 - Epic-X w/PL Mount 1 - Side SSD 1 - DSMC Side Handle 1 - Bomb EVF 1 - AC Power Adapter 2 - Red Stations 1 - DSMC ti Canon EOS...

Howdy all, Well after much contemplation I've ordered a Epic-X stage 4, and would love some thoughts on my glass options. Excluding Cine style lenses for the moment for budgetary reasons I'm thinking either a kit of Canon Ls primes and zooms or a set of Zeiss ZFs via Nikon-EOS adapter. This is...

Just wondering if anyone has seen or know's of the responsiveness of the canon auto-focus over the TBA Redmote Pro. Is it the kind of set up where you could competently pull focus and with an adjustable focus throw ie. adjusting the focus dial to compensate for the short throw of stills lenses...

Hi All, I was just reading this article at http://nofilmschool.com/build-a-hackintosh/ and I'm curious. Has anyone here built a hacintosh of some kind. I guess what I'm thinking is a Mac operating system running for quick transcoding and Da Vinci grading with internal SSDs set up over a raid...

Hi All, just wondering... Has anyone heard of these guys? And do we know if they're legit and weather anyone has bought from them?

Hi All, Am just wondering if it's possible to record a flat image ie the RAW as an image stream to something like the Sound Devices Pix240 or Atomos Samurai. Essentially, on the HD-SDI out of the Epic (or Scarlett) can you set the menu to send a dry non LUT or non REC709 image?

Hi All, So I'm starting this thread and copying Atomos in on it so they're got an idea of the appeal of their Samurai product as a companion to the Scarlett-X. The Samurai http://atomos.com/samurai/ looks like a great little and light weight solution for those of us that don't want to shoot 4K...

Just thinking out loud, if putting a kit together you could potentially hold off on all the SSD stuff and go for something like the Samurai. This would mean no over/under cranking but you would have the advantage of being able to record to say Pro Res and hence would not have soo much data to...

Ok, I hope this wont be too controversial but I've been looking at these two cameras (C300-Scarlett-X) all day. I've been eagerly awaiting their arrival for at least the last couple of months and now they're here. It truly was an exciting day spent in front of my macbook awaiting the next...

Hey All, I'm shooting a job on Tuesday, it's pretty simple. A Soccer star talking to camera in front of a blue screen. Their jersey has a little green in it so we're talking blue screen. So I'm wondering if anyone has had any experience with the less sensitive to blue light Mk1 chip being an...

Hi, I'm trying to find some accurate information about the Red Rocket but there doesn't seem to be much on the RED website. I basically want to know if I can run the RED Rocket in place of the standard video card in a Mac Pro. I'm setting up a new video/audio system and essentially need 4 PCI...

Hi All, I'm shooting a short on the Red in a week or so. I'm wanting to shoot some slow motion stuff maybe only up to 60 fps (3K) but possibly up to around 100 fps (2K). Just wondering if anyone has had an experience doing this and the quality difference etc I'm aware that technically it's...
