Current list of Canon and Nikon lenses supported by Red mounts?

[Andy Roberts]

Is there a current list of Canon and Nikon lenses supported by their respective Red mounts?

It strikes me there should be a posted list somewhere on Red's support site that is key current.

Are the Sigma Art lenses supported on the Canon mount?

Are the Sigma Art lenses supported on the Nikon mount?

Thanks!

Red's current list starts on page 245 of the Weapon Helium / Epic-W User Guide in the download section of Red.com here.

Apparently only two of the Sigma Art lenses (Canon mount) are supported: 18-35mm and 24-35mm
Possibly same with Nikon too but the 18-35 isn't listed as "Art" but as far as I can tell, Sigma's only 18-35 is the Art lens.

Are any Sigma Art primes supported in anyone's experience?

The benefit of the DSMC2 Side Handle's Focus Wheel quickly diminishes if only 50% of one's lenses are supported.

I have every Art prime in EF mount except the 30mm and the 85mm

They all work swell!

I had a 50-100 and it worked too.

Even "weird" lenses like Tokina 14-20 f2 work for me so far.

Thanks Dan. I just switched from Canon lenses to Nikon lenses and now I'm thinking of switching back to all EF mount Sigma Art lenses... Red truly seems to support Canon better. Even though I have an Epic-W, the Raven is still an option, which would require EF mount.

I mean, unless you are specifically using Nikon glass (which is superb stuff) I would just go EF for third party glass.

In Nikon mounts I have Sigma Art 20mm, 35mm, 50mm and 85mm. The 35mm is the only one the connects up well. The others may or may not connect up. They hunt and usually find them but not always.

Thanks Aiden!

Do you have the new sidehandle?
