Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)
Random question for the Hive mind.
For those of you using a Kippertie Revolva on DSMC2, and using the Wooden Camera Revolva pass thruogh plate.
Do you know if the DSMC2 LEMO adapter works with that plate...
Hey gang, my wife and I watched this lovely doc this weekend and noticed the "SHOT ON RED" logo at the end.
Wanted to share.
Here's the trailer:
For those of you who haven't heard of this, it's a doc by the wonderful Edgar Wright. It focuses on the little known but highly influential band...
Hey gang, have an Epic Dragon 6K package for sale.
Lovingly treated, complete package. Has been used only in a studio environment. And only used carefully by my team. Has never had any issues, and has been a loyal, and great cam.
Here are the details:

It's an amazing series - highly recommend if you have a chance.

HIVE 200-C - SUMMER GROUP BUY!!!
Dear Reduser friends and colleagues,
We're *big* fans of Hive, and love hanging w/ Co-Founder Jon Miller. Every time he stops by our studio we learn something new, and get to see something *really cool*.
During our last hang out he showed us the new Hive...
Hey guys, anyone catching "DARK" on Netflix? It's basically the German "Stranger Things". My wife's been watching it, and I've been getting some peaks in, and I'm BLOWN AWAY. Looks fantastic, and the story is great.
Here's the trailer:
Anyone know what it's shot on?
Some shots are so clean...
Hey guys, this is a quick film we made with the Atlas 65mm, on a rainy day in Brooklyn. The lens was in town for only 24hrs, so we had to think fast, and do something fun - even with a storm coming in!
The results speak for themselves. Shot on a Stormtrooper 8K Helium, the bokeh from the 65mm...
Hey guys, not sure if anyone has caught "DEAR WHITE PEOPLE" on Netflix, but it's one of the best looking shows on TV right now.
Not only is the show great, and the writing amazing, it just looks....superb.
I was quietly pleased to find out it was shot on Weapon (in 5K, sometimes 6K).
Here's...
So was extremely lucky to go to HBO 2017 CAS Camera Test @ NAB and see the best cameras in the world duke it out. Here's my review of how each camera did.
#6 BLACK MAGIC URSA MINI
By far the worst camera in the test, and came in last in pretty much every category. Skintones were harsh. Blacks...
Anyone know what charts Shane is using in this camera test below?

These look ideal for what my team needs, and am having a hard time finding them on B&H, etc.
If anyone has any specifics as to who makes these, would greatly appreciate it!!
thanks

He flew to LA, and had a team there shoot this - on Helium.
Thought you guys would want to see!
I know there isn't a ton of Helium content out there.

Hey gang, looks like the 1.8" mag trade in program (for 512 mini-mags), is no longer available:
Got this response from my Bomb Rep today:
To paraphrase, Jarred has always made clear "all good things must pass"....so it appears (at long last) this wonderful and generous program has come to a...
Hey guys, here's a recent shoot we did, all outdoors, all natural light. Indie budget.
It doesn't get talked about a lot, but I do think RED (esp when paired with vintage glass) can render very beautiful, natural organic looking footage...within a doc environment.
We shot this for a campaign I...
Hey guys, very proud to present this digital campaign we created for A&E, to promote their hit docu-series "60 DAYS IN".
To our utter surprise, this series went VIRAL on Facebook, and got over 14 MILLION VIEWS!!!

Hey guys, wanted to share this incredibly moving campaign - the best use of the footage from our shoot this summer.
All of these character spots were shot on Louis Maddalena's Carbon Weapon - with Skintone OLPF pushed to 1600 ISO!
Lenses were RP Modded Contax 85 1.4 (at f2) and 180 2.8 (wide...
