I'm already assuming matte box and follow focus are on the way. I want to see the red head and tripod... and even more so - the RED dolly.

Anything below $2000 and I'm buying....

Justin,
I'm hoping Red's mb is much less that $2,000!

I can do a deal with Arri for a MB-20 for about $2,500.

Dave,

Well some of us have to be realistic.

Justin,
I'm saying if the basic Red mb is at $2K.....for $500 more I can get an Arri MB20!

I guess the RED matte box will be between 1000 and 1500 $.

 

[david farland]

At the moment all there it is is a beauty contest....and a difference $500-1000 on the basic setup isn't much to me.

There is SO much more to consider when buying a Matte box.

Arri has over half a dozen matte boxes and over 50 rings/adapters for the MB20 alone.
I expect (hope) Red is compatible with these.

Also the price of flags, trays, filter rings/adapters can nearly double the cost of the basic matte box.

Cheers,

Dave,

If RED is making the mattebox, and it ends up being $500 less, to some of us that could mean buying filters, etc.

I'd rather save the $500 then go with an MB20 so I could use that money on other RED accessories. Of course, many people will think differently, but that's how I would work it.

 

[david farland]

Sounds like you don't need an Arri!

 

[HD Hildebrand]

Sounds to me like all this speculation has just raised the price.

 

[Paul Leeming]

looks VERY nice, but aren't we suppose to be able to see through a mattebox ;-)

Good spot, but I think you're looking at an optical reflection of the back of the doughnut in the matte box, via an ND filter placed in one of the filter stages. Nonetheless, kudos for the humourous point that made me look closer!

Cheers,

Paul

Mmm...biotech.
Count me in.

ETA?




p.s. - Giger influence ?

 

[ericyoung]

Jim - love that you're doing it, but that appears to be a two stage...correct?

GOTSTA have 3 stages! Pola & ND setup.

Also, random note misplaced- Red Alert & Redcine should have reel info in the QTs they make...as should the camera. Otherwise, fubars the conform workflow later...

You should be able to add or subtract stages. Only want one? Push and rotate, and the stages detach. Want four? Add three.

Of course this is probably too expensive and difficult to do in reality. :matrix:

From how much??....for what??

 

[Manuel Wenger]

Looks sweet, and i love the design, would also vote for three stages with fitersize 5,6x5,6 and make sure Cooke 18-100 and Angenieux 25-250 HR will fit .

Love it- would really love an EVF too.

[CJ Roy]

Looks great. When can I buy?

 

[Jaime Vallés]

Very nice. There's that Oakley aesthetic at work again!

Thanks for posting this. Any word on price?

 

[Vincent S]

So could this mean that Red filters are not to far behind? I mean connect the dots Oakley----Red. I could see it now,, the Red HIJINX ND filters!!

I think you're a bit out of the loop there Mike Camera has reel info in the generated QuickTimes, as does RED ALERT! for a couple of weeks now. Redcine doesn't have it yet though, but it's coming.
