I have to say, Laowa is really making it hard to look at other lenses with releases like this! I had planned to include Laowa's selection of macro lenses in our lens lineup just as they were as stills lenses but now they have a whole set of PL/EF-mount cine versions...

Yeah that can happen. We used a mix of slim 90-something V-mount batteries and large Dynacore batteries, I want to say they were 290 or 310? (They were orange sticker models, probably old versions) Needless to say, the RED One MX is not a camera that's light on its feet. However, it's not...

That may very well be the short term solution, Harvey, we will mostly need them for offload and review of 8K R3D and 12K BRAW and light editing tasks, basically field laptops. It's really wild that the laptop market has fallen apart with barely any customization and really limited hardware...

Hey, Prime Leon, it looks like you wrapped your question in a reply there but yeah I ordered our RED One MX kit that came with a 5.6 monitor that had a bad screen so I ordered a supposedly good condition RED 7" monitor and it did work great for several months of testing and getting familiar with...

Hey, everybody, I was looking up laptops for high end work and I'm just seeing a complete lack of options. Intel's complete catastrophe on the 14th generation processors immediately kills any idea of buying one of those and AMD is touting new Ryzen AI chips but none of the laptops seem to be...

How about RED One and RED One MX?

For our soon to be finished feature film, "The Diner", we used our RED One MX audio as on-set backup audio and for post sync with a Rode NTG-2 shoe mounted on the side of the camera. The main audio was a Sound Devices MixPre 6 but a lot of times the RED One MX audio sounded just fine for...

I reached out to RED about bringing REDucation to Las Vegas with our Babs Do Studios development but there wasn't much interest. We're still looking for investors to get Babs Do Studios off the ground but whether it's the economy, the election year, the studio industry issues or all of the...

We are debating between certain larger medium format options, Sigma Art Cine Primes, and the new DZO Arles Primes. With 82mm, 86mm and 95mm fronts, there's some conflict with our usual options which would be the Isco4All, SLR Magic 2x, and Isco Red 2x adapter setups. This will be for an ensemble...

Hey, everybody, I'm wondering about anamorphic adapters for an upcoming project and I'm trying to decide between the Letus Anamorphx 1.8x Pro adapter and an older 2x Kish Optics Mesmerizer. The new Schneider Isco4All would have been a contender but it's too small for some of the lenses we plan...

I tried asking in another thread for what alternative sites to go to as REDUser has become a little bit of a ghost town as of late but nobody gave any leads other than "social media" and "Facebook". Cinematography.com, DVXUser.com, and even EOSHD.com are all a lot slower than before and...

Kipon just put out a variation of this, I like that 35mm adapters have made a comeback here, especially as it opens up all kinds of lens adaptations for PL cameras! https://www.newsshooter.com/2024/08/01/kipon-pl-pl-0-7x-focal-reducer/

I would say that Nikon and RED above all others would be the ones to go beyond 8K first to follow Blackmagic Design's lead. The medium format game would also be interesting as more and more productions seem to be going after the Alexa 65 for their shows and movies lately. I can't say when, for...

In my opinion, I would say if you're worried about it blowing up, don't do it! I've read too many horror stories over two decades of being on pro video forums about camera folks blowing up their equipment or causing weird errors because they tried to daisy chain everything onto one camera...

I can see Nikon Z of course being the mount of choice, this alone will be the biggest change for many. A jump in resolution wouldn't be bad but a little point or two above 8K at minimum would make sense as well for scaling. I'm resorting to an older theory of a bigger camera being in the mix...

In regards to the breathing, I was considering trying out the Rapido FVD-35A variable diopter on the Sigma 50-100 for that very reason. The other option is to throw on a Letus 1.8x Anamorphic adapter or even a Kish Optics 2X Mesmerizer to take care of our anamorphic needs and to cut down on...

Hey, everybody, just a quick question, has anybody tried the Sigma 18-35 and Sigma 50-100 Cine PL versions with the Laowa 1.33x Rear Anamorphic or their 1.4x FF Expander? I'm looking into lens options for a potential project and I enjoy my Sigma 18-35 on Nikon F mount and the idea of using the...

This looks amazing and what it offers can be a major cost savings for people getting into PL lenses and those switching between different cameras. I just hope it doesn't have a crazy final price because even looking back at similar devices from the past for 2/3" video cameras, this can fall into...

Hi, everybody, so I’ve been looking at some of the recent news and releases from Canon and Arri lately and I have to admit I’m a little concerned. Arri is shutting down a Japanese office and service center due to the cost ratio of the Japanese Yen at the moment and some comments and rumors...

Sorry for the delay, I didn't see the notification pop up until now. I've been using the most recent REDCine-X software and keeping it updated regularly with no problems. I don't do much with it unless I'm previewing a clip to find something so I don't know if any version would be "better" per...
