I hear that the Sigma 24-105/4 was confirmed. What do you think for run and gun. I have heard from others that the Canon 24-105 is a great lens but there is a light loss from 24-105. Given Sigma's recent history this may be a good lens...

Okay so I received a bargain late model Leica 90/2 in the mail yesterday. Loving it by the way. Upon inspection I noticed there seems to be a blemish or tiny dust spot in between lens elements. I know that it is not showing up in most shooting situations. So I ran the Scarlet with the lens on...

So I was looking for an answer to this question: For those of us that like to focus in the Canon direction but want to control aperture on the lens. Why did Zeiss not come out with a ZE version of the lens with manual aperture control? I know some will say they did (it's a CP.2) but to jump up...

Wondering if it is possible to create a preset which only allows max recording of set time for example 5 seconds per clip? Basically I find myself using the camera for testing often in many different scenarios lighting conditions etc and would rather not come back to the offloading station with...

Reduser is running very slow for me today. I noticed something very strange today. I had Reduser open in Google Chrome with only 2 frames open and all of a sudden I start hearing an audio advertisement. I immediately checked both pages and I didn not see any advertisements playing. I closed both...

So I saw that Sony announced a A3000 camera which supposedly would have a electronic viewfinder and lens for $400. Obviously it is not out yet so don't know the quality but at that price I wonder why we haven't seen any slim/sleek EVFs we can attach to the top of a DSMC (kind of like a DSLR form...

For sale is my Rokinon 85mm 1.4 Lens. This is in Canon mount and is the original version and NOT the "cine" version. It is a great lens but I have only used it 4 times since I purchased a Contax Zeiss 85mm. Lens is in the original box and ready to ship. The lens has 2 dust specks I can see...

Hi All. I decided that as far as my next purchase for lenses I wanted to pickup a small set of Leica-R's (likely after I save up for an Epic) I was thinking of only the Summicron 35, 50, 90 for now. Can you tell me which versions/serial numbers I should be looking for? They are so confusing 1...

Just read that Rokinon is going to come out with a cine version of their 16mm f2 lens. Speaking of which has anyone used the 16 f2 lens that they have. What are you opinions on it? How does it match other lenses in your kit?

SOLD! Hi everyone. I'm selling my Zacuto Snap EVF. I am not using this much. I bought it as a refurbished unit from Zacuto in Sept of last year. Have probably only used it 3 times. Asking $500. Looking to sell only to one of the reputable members here in the US. This is the same package as...

Hmm. So I am tempted by this seemingly liquidation of the Canon EOS-M camera. At $299 it seems like a bargain. Obviously it is not a substitute for a professional camera but as something to take with you every where. What do you all think of using this as a directors viewfinder. With 1.6x crop...

I saw a few videos for this Genustech Eclipse Variable ND: https://vimeo.com/54266255 I was interested in buying one (my first variable ND) to cover me in run and gun situations with multiple lenses. I am considering buying a 82mm and stepping down to my other lenses. Has anyone here an opinion...

Hi just wondering if anyone is shooting fireworks this Thursday on their RED. Any tips from experienced shooters for shooting on a Scarlet?

Jim and Jarred, Can you please address this. I have posted regarding this a few times and I know other Redusers can also use this feature. Obviously all of us do not shoot an Epic or Scarlet the same way. I do not have an unlimited budget and currently can not afford a Bombevf so I am "stuck"...

Hi everyone. In my day job (real estate) I have typically shot some walkthroughs of condominiums and homes and typically used 24fps and 1/50 or 1/48 of a second but was wondering how you would shoot them. I have noticed a lot of motion blur and realize I am not shooting a feature film when I am...

Has anyone successfully used the Atomos Ninja 2 with the Scarlet? Also curious if it works in full 1080p? Looking for Ninja 2 only information as I would like to use the option of also using it with a DSLR so the Samurai would be out of the question.

Anyone know which cameras they use for this. Some of the food closeups have so shallow depth of field im thinking full frame dslr? But they also have some slow motion shots.

Hi everyone. I am wondering if any of you have contacts with a friendly fashion photographer in Miami. I would like to find someone who is willing to let me shadow them on a couple of shoots and someone who I can collaborate with. I guess what I can offer them is shooting behind the scenes...

Question for Graeme primarily. I am considering upgrading my Scarlet to an Epic and in the future considering upgrading to the Dragon but who knows what will happen between now and then. So my question is for those of us who own previous generation cameras, Scarlet, Epic, RED one mx. If we work...

Did anyone see this at NAB: http://nofilmschool.com/2013/04/nab-video-tokina-new-cinema-lenses/ finally looks like a great option for a RED one with the dumb nikon mount.
