  • 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 :)

Epic is the Ultimate "Film Slayer".... IF

Given that the RED ONE already works with 35mm still lenses, it makes me think... do the standard motion picture/PL-mount lenses cover that same area? And if so, why didn't we make a standard 35mm sized sensor to begin with?

PL mount lenses cover a 30/31mm image circle which is smaller
than what still lenses cover.
 
Gotcha. Interesting though, that if the RED lenses are just rebranded still lenses, it shouldn't be very difficult to make a "pro" 35mm lens with a PL mount.
 
I was digging around for something else and came up with this thread in a search. It's a very interesting read from back in May of 2008. It's interesting to see how far Epic has come, but also how many ideas that were tossed around by the community here back then actually came to be included in the DSMC/Epic program.

I assume this discussion near the end of the thread about FF35mm took place before FF35 Epic cameras were announced? Does anyone know the date FF35 Epic was announced?
 
The way I look at it, Epic Mk1 never happened and we're now going to get Epic Mk2, which is I think a HUGE win for those of who took faith and have been waiting. Look at HDRx, that wasnt even on our maps until very recently. Here's to skipping generations!!

And even a bigger win when you start off being ahead of the competition's next generations... :laugh:
